Bargello's culinary team draws their inspiration from the flavors you experience when traveling along the Mediterranean coastline. Seasonal and locally sourced dishes include fresh hand-rolled pastas, house-made breads, and innovative cuisine from Executive Chef Tyler Slade. Bargello’s menu changes often to reflect the local produce available in Western North Carolina.

Complementary valet parking is available exclusively for Bargello during dinner service from Wednesday to Sunday, between 5:00 PM and 10:00 PM. A reservation is required, and the valet service is limited to a maximum of three hours. This offer is not valid on holidays, special events, or private events.

    Bargello served delicious food but we were disappointed in the service. We waited about 10 minutes before someone took our drink order and then waited an additional 10 minutes before someone took our dinner order. We were celebrating a birthday and included that as a note in our reservation, the hostess wished the birthday girl a happy birthday but the server did not. The table next to us also was celebrating a birthday and received a happy birthday dessert brought out by the manager, we thought the same thing would happen for our table but it did not. We really wanted to love this restaurant but were disappointed with our experience.

    The restaurant is beautifully designed, the manager was very thoughtful and attentive, our service person was very helpful, provided excellent guidance, and was fun. The food was absolutely delicious. It was my friend's birthday and I had noted when I set the reservation that she was not eating dessert so the manner did an amazing thing and brought out an appetizer with a candle. She was so touched. We noticed that the manager was constantly involved in what was going on. He was in the kitchen he was on the floor, and he seen to have his finger on the pulse of the restaurant. The only negative is the music is much too loud. We found ourselves leaning over to hear each other talk and having to repeat things several times. I could hear the people at the table nearby because they were shouting to be heard by each other. We went over to the bar area to see what that was like and the DJs were there and the music there was also very very loud. I love music however there's a level that it's not enjoyable.

    Went to Bargello for our anniversary and the service was impeccable - attentive and welcoming. Outclassing the service was the food. The arancini was crispy, the short rib was like eating tender, yet concentrated beef, and the pasta was perfection.

    Hi Steve, Thank you so much for the glowing review. It was a pleasure serving you and it is great to know that you enjoyed your experience. I will share your kind words with the staff and kitchen. We look forward to welcoming you back again very soon! All the Best, Kyle,

    It is a beautiful restaurant. The hostess was very professional and checked my coat. The waitress was kind and knowledgeable but it was clear they were a bit understaffed as far as servers because she was not able to quite stay on top of her tables. The food was mediocre and overcooked. It was played out to look very pretty on the plate but the taste was.... meh. It felt like the chef said "what as the bougiest ingredients i can think of? Great, now let's throw them all together on the plate and call it gormet."
    BargelloResponded on 27 February 2025
    Thanks for the feedback, Lauren. I am glad to hear that you found our restaurant beautiful and our staff professional. I'm sorry to hear that you felt our food lacked the depth of flavor that we strive for. I will share your comments with our culinary team for review. We're committed to providing the best dining experience and will use your comments to improve. I hope you'll give us another chance to impress you in the future. All the Best, Kyle, Manager

    Verydisappointing. It took 2 1/2 hours to receive dinner. Portions were served incorrectly, and although efforts were made to correct it, it completely disrupted the flow of the meal. Food quality was average,. It was very noisy - not a cool vibe noisy, just loud. There is no ambiance… it is basically in the lobby of the hotel, brightly lit, if you are wanting date night, don’t choose this. Because it took so long to receive our meal, they were closing by dinners end- no offer of coffee or dessert, just handing us the bill. We had 4 people. Not one of the 4 found anything in the evening worth a return visit - and we all eat out frequently, and are quite aware of issues facing restaurants right now. It is why we were there - but we want be back.. For my $70, I expect far more.

We strive to create a comfortable and enjoyable environment for all our guests, and we regret that we fell short this time.
