Ristoranti in zona Compton Park

We had 8 people for dinner and sampled a number of dishes from "snacks" to small plates to table shares (entrees) as well as several sides. Without exception, every dish was very good to excellent -- no weak entries. Even the gem salad was cold, crisp, flavorful and simply fresh tasting. Our server was personable and knowledgeable and the entire staff was very efficient and unobtrusive. The restaurant was about 3/4 full and pretty noisy -- good energy but not a place for a quiet evening. We had not been back in about 18 months and all agreed that Bardea has only gotten better.

Absolutely outstanding restaurant with unmatched steaks. The starters are refreshed periodically and reflect the chef’s eclectic viewpoint; I will never forget the oxtail empanadas that used to be on the menu, and the pork tostado that is on the current menu will take you to heaven! Service is outstanding and unpretentious and the classy yet welcoming atmosphere works for everything from a special family dinner to date night to girls night out. One of my favorite restaurants in the entire country!

It had been about 8 years since I had been to Banks. The oyster selection is decent. The Brussels sprout salad, clams casino and Lobster in the Nude were great. The only downside was the clam chowder, that was all potatoes and no clams.

The food was tasty! Servicer was great, very friendly and attentive. Good location!

We started with the Small plates of Avocado and then the Salmon. The Avocado dish was divine...perfectly warm with tantalizing flavors beneath it. The salmon was really good but we weren't fans of the "crisp" that comes with it which is made from the skin...too fishy for our taste. That's a personal preference. I had the burger and my wife the Cacio e Pepe. Both were also excellent.
