Barrique Venice

From the moment you walk in, you know you’re in for an experience. The restaurant is located in an old house, which gives it a unique atmosphere. Our server immediately intrigued us with the night's specials and gave us a great tour of the menu. We started with the scallops with fresh truffle, followed by two pastas for our mains. The filet mignon ravioli was great, but the beet pasta with quail ragu was fantastic (I honestly wonder how many birds go into one portion! lol). We finished with the panna cotta and chocolate cake, which were just okay. The wine selection was limited but unique—I highly recommend the Kerner.

Excellent freshly chef prepared pasta dishes- very authentic and delicious. Our server Michael was cool and provided world class service. The watercress salad was not only unique , but, very tasty . We had a 3 course vegetarian option and every dish including the desert was excellent . We had a reservation, yet we did not get prime seating. Upstairs the seating was extremely crowded ( not at all good ) and you could hear every conversation from the next table. This is a bad part of the evening . Do not recommend to take your first date if they plan to seat you upstairs.

Barrique in Venice Beach is a culinary GAME CHANGER! I just had the most incredible Italian food experience at Barrique, and I'm still dreaming about that Homemade Pappardelle with Rabbit Ragu', Prunes, and Porcini Mushrooms... Serious foodie heaven! The pasta was perfectly cooked, the rabbit ragu' was rich and savory, and those prunes added a sweet and tangy twist. And let's talk about the porcini mushrooms. The service was top-notch, and the atmosphere was cozy and inviting. Can't wait to go back and try more of their dishes! If you're in Venice Beach, DO. NOT. MISS. Barrique. Trust me, your taste buds will thank you!

Barrique is easily one of my absolute favorite Italian restaurants in Los Angeles. The ambiance alone deserves praise. It’s cozy, understated, and quietly refined. It’s the kind of place that reminds me of intimate restaurants I’ve loved in Maine and Switzerland. Nothing flashy, nothing forced, just warm, confident elegance. And for the romantics out there… this is exactly where you go to remember why you fell in love with your partner in the first place. A few personal favorites: The pan-seared scallops are extraordinary. Served over fondue and finished with delicate shavings of black truffle, the dish feels almost sinful. Rich, balanced, and unforgettable. If you’re fortunate enough to catch it during one of their menu rotations, the beef carpaccio is an absolute must. It’s easily th

We recently dined for dinner at Barrique for Dine LA and we were very underwhelmed & disappointed. We were looking forward to going & trying this neighborhood spot, yet we walked out quite bummed. The ambiance is cozy and cute. However, seating outside was cold, even with heat lamps and seating inside was like sitting on a bus side to side with others, dining with your party, but hearing the entire conversation of another couple sitting way too close to you. The server was not engaging & was not around. We had to flag him down and wait when we needed something and had to send food back to be further cooked. The ceviche was good, the vegetables were fresh, we did have a filet, which was small but tasty. We also ordered the sea bass and could have sworn it was mahi mahi, it was a bit
