Our team provides warm hospitality in our comfortable, intimate dining room marked with vintage art & light fixtures. You will feel like home when dining at Bacari W. Adams.

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

It was my cousin’s 60th, which i wrote in the comments when making the reservation. Ashley and Ricky took great care of us. Ashley greeted is with prosecco to acknowledge the birthday, which set the tone for the evening. The food was delicious and Ricky made the yummiest drinks. Bacari will always be one of my go to options for its excellent food, amazing customer service and chill ambiance.

I have never written a review, but 10/10 so good - I must speak on this. I audible gasped when I tried the beef cheek, and I had the best espresso martini ever.

The Christmas decorations were really cute and very festive. The food was good, it was just unfortunate that they didn’t have the things we wanted to try.

It was okay overall. We've been to their other location on W 3rd, which we found much better. At this property, we waited at least 20 minutes before anyone took our drink or food order. Realizing the delay, we decided to order everything at once. The space is quite small, and the noise level was overwhelming. In hindsight, we wish we had requested a table outside in the back, where it was noticeably quieter. After our food arrived, we had to wait a long time to catch the waiter’s attention to get the bill. At that point, I noticed one item on the bill that had never been served. When I pointed it out, the waiter said it would be right out, but the timing of everything was completely off. It wasn’t the best evening out, but at least it was inexpensive.

As per usual, before going to a play at the Ahmanson Theatre, we had a great tapas and unlimited Sangria meal at Bacari Adams. The service was excellent, the food was great and the beautiful Winter Wonderland decor really put us in the holiday mood!!

We came for a late brunch during the holiday pop up on my birthday and loved it! There were so many great options to choose from and share, and the decorations made it very cozy inside. Would definitely come back to try more of their dinner items!

Portions are small for brunch. More of a tapas style menu. Service was amazing! The drinks including mocktails were so delicious! The holiday theme is the cutest!

Small plates were a great option for my larger group. Everything was delicious and everyone had a chance to get a taste of all our dishes.
