We had a lovely and lively dinner last night. The place was packed and had a vibrant energy level. The appetizers were delicious, the spicy feta, artichokes, tuna carpaccio and mushroom flatbread were so flavorful. We had the lamb and salmon for dinner as well. Will definitely return here!

Big place. Was packed when I went with friends. Food was good, loads of choices if you have a vegetarian in your group. Overall very good, but very noisy. Difficult to hear people at your own table at times. Would definitely go back.

We had the best Thanksgiving at Barbounia! The staff was amazing, starting with Lamar, the Manager and the entire staff was terrific! The Prix Fixe menu's food and choices were varied and plentiful. The Turkey Schawarma and sourdough stuffing were delicious. The restaurant was vibrant, with pleasant holiday decorations. As we left, we asked if we could book for next Thanksgiving, but clearly we were a little early. I have been going to Barbounia since it opened in the Gramercy neighborhood and it's always good, but for the holiday - it was superior! I highly recommend Barbounia any time of the year.
