We welcome you to our warm modern space with the largest heated patio in the Financial District! Our outdoor dining room is set up beautifully, and has the most romantic ambiance. Indoors, celebrate with us in our newly remodeled interior.

Our inspiration is that of the Mediterranean with its wonderful diverse cultures, cuisines and wines. The menu reflects flavors from South of France, Spain, Tunisia and the Middle East. Be sure to try our legendary Persian Tahdig, Spiced Beef Dumplings, and the smoothest, most delicious hummus you've ever had!

We look forward to welcoming you to Barcha!

Took forever to get our food, and we were on a schedule. Nearby tables were seated after us and eating before us, so I suspect our order was lost/forgotten. Had to ask our server for an update, and when food came out, it seemed like we probably got someone else's modified order (chicken came in a bowl instead of on the salad, 2 identical orders came out separately).

Excellent food as usual. The service was quite slow, especially for lunch and I noted the same for multiple tables around me. Additionally, the prices had really gone up since my last visit. Unclear why. It bugs me that they nail guests for 6% SF mandate — much higher than most restaurants. I don’t know why health insurance for Barcha would be far higher than other restaurants.

As usual, everything was delicious! The manager checked on us which was nice and they gave us an appetizer and dessert on the house. Barcha never disappoints!
