**For parties of 15 or more, kindly call our Events ManagerRobert Miguel at (415) 307-5609 or email robertm@barbayanitaverna.com.** Hospitality in ancient Greece is a timeless tradition deeply woven into the fabric of its culture. In the Mediterranean, a region historically known as a melting pot of diverse cultures and cuisines, this spirit of hospitality was not only a virtue but a sacred duty. From the early times of city-states to the present day, the people of Greece have welcomed weary travelers as if they were guests from the gods themselves. This tradition is a testament to the enduring values of generosity, kindness, and warmth that have characterized Greek society for millennia. Whether it’s a simple offering of food and shelter or the sharing of stories and experiences, the essence of Greek hospitality remains as vibrant and essential today as it was in the days of Homer’s epic tales.

My sister and I both ordered Ceasar salads. One with Wild Pacific shrimp, and one with Sockeye Salmon. Both were excellent. The salmon could have been cooked 1 minute less. The French fries were crispy with great flavor. All and all a great visit.

Our waiter today was great -- cheerful, efficient, friendly. My friend and I were celebrating our birthdays. He knew our names and kept "celebrating" the birthdays. In terms of food, I wish they would have some house made VEGAN choices!

Every server was kind, helpful and accommodating . They took measures to meet our every need . When the wind kicked outdoors they asked if we wanted to move indoors or have a heater brought over. We didn’t even ask . We must have interacted with 6 people and each and every one of them was wonderful.
