We are the 3rd restaurant of Kronfli Brothers, a family-owned, growing group of restaurants in the Los Angeles area. Alongside our delicious tapas, we offer a rotating curation of small-production wines and eclectic beers, unique craft cocktails & mocktails, and we are also known for our one-of-a-kind 90-minute open bar special.

Our team provides warm hospitality in our comfortable, intimate indoor lounge by the bar or in our spacious, breezy outdoor patio. You will feel like home when dining at Bacari GDL.

    Food was great although the portions are tiny and expensive! The service was great to a point we had multiple servers and they mixed up our orders and started sending two orders of dishes we only ordered once. Nevertheless I’ll come back again, for the food and the atmosphere!

    Amazing place to meet our friends in the area. Every single dish delighted for a group of very picky eaters. Madison was great! The scallops in carrot puree, shawarma tacos, beets, Mexican street corn, salmon, pepper pasta, and Saltim were all standouts. Cocktails were…ok. Festive atmosphere. Would definitely visit again!

    This is the third time I've been to a Bacari and it never fails....waiters are just not attentive in the least. They start out great and have some nice one liners but they just do not refill your water or see if you need anything and keep you waiting. It's always tough to get good service at Bacari for some reason. Shame its a good concept

    Took some family here on our way to the Burbank airport. Great food and service - thank you Lawrence and Christian!! It’s a little more of a “mall” vibe than the Silverlake location, but the quality and convenience can’t be beat. And the food was just as good. As a bonus, we got to the airport in 15 minutes after the meal. Thanks again!

    My experience here was truly wonderful, and I was touched by how attentive and friendly the staff were. It’s clear they genuinely care about their customers. I will absolutely return and will happily recommend this place to friends and family.
