Bacari PDR is a Venetian-inspired small plates restaurant featuring Mediterranean-influenced dishes by Chef Lior Hillel. We are the 2nd 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 patio or in our spacious, breezy outdoor patio. You will feel like home when dining at Bacari PDR.

We welcome but do not require reservations — we love to accommodate walk-ins and large parties, even on busy nights. Bacari PDR is the go-to spot for our neighbors, and we look forward to hosting you soon!

The food was great as always. The service was great as well. We went in a large group and they were able to accommodate us. It didn’t feel too cold in the outdoor area with the heaters around even though it is February. They even gave us champagne to cheers since we were celebrating a birthday. We all really enjoyed the evening here

I love Bacari, but my most recent experience felt very understaffed. All of our food arrived before our wine, and we asked 3 different people before we got it. Our server was kind and apologetic about it, but the same thing happened with our second bottle. Our needs were generally met, and we were a low maintenance group, but we struggled to get attention when we needed it. Things just felt very scattered.

Don’t want to say how great this place is or it might get harder to get reservations. Have gone many times and always delicious and service has been great. I expect you to be pleasantly surprised if/when you dine here.

Loved the cocktails, vibes and servers were super nice and helpful! The food was a bit disappointing. I ordered the kale salad and I came overdressed and a lot of filler greens (they were not kale). We also got the cauliflower and it was essentially a salad with cauliflower on top, there was a huge bed of lettuce (dry) under the cauliflower to make it almost appear bigger and like there was more cauliflower than there actually was. For a $15 cauliflower app, I don’t even think we were served half of a head of a normal sized cauliflower. I’d go back for vibes and drinks but not the food.
