Best Romantic Restaurants in Chinatown

We loved this restaurant! The service was impeccable, the ambiance perfect, and the food was good. While it was slightly on the expensive side, it was well within expectations and didn’t take away from the superb evening we had. Our young kids were mesmerised by the revolving night scenes and fascinated by the movement of the restaurant, which kept them entertained throughout the evening. We highly recommend this restaurant for a fun and memorable dining experience—whether you’re with family, friends, or on a romantic night out.

We have spent Christmas Eve here several years now and always appreciate the food and service. The music was loud but celebratory.

Great service? Good atmosphere and my food was delicious!

Barbara is a beautiful experience of lovely staff and excellently executed dishes. As mentioned in other reviews, the space is intimate yet stylishly appointed. We wouldn’t have it any other way. In a city where one can have an endless variety of foods, Barbara manages to be quite more than a cut above the rest while remaining true to the vision of the owner/chef, Pat. Literally every single bite of our order: beef tartare, the in-house made stracciatella, the octopus, the celery root and the Arctic char and beef short rib managed to make ingredients we have had before become something special again. Be sure to order an inventive cocktail and save room for the included dessert. Ours was a Concord grape granita with maple drizzle that seemed made for each other. If you’re local or visiting this beautiful city, place Barbara on your list of “not to be missed” restaurants and make this reservations in advance. You’re in for a real treat.

Food was fabulous and service was amazing!! Perfect venue for a holiday meal
