Bacari GDL is a Venetian-inspired small plates restaurant featuring Mediterranean-influenced dishes by Chef Lior Hillel. We are the 3rd 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 lounge by the bar or in our spacious, breezy outdoor patio. You will feel like home when dining at Bacari GDL.

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

Absolutely love this place. I’ve been here multiple times now and each time has been better than the other. Good portions for small plates and everything was well thought through.

I LOVE this place. Great ambiance. A lot of outdoor seating (with heaters if it’s California cold). Staff all super friendly. Food is delicious. You won’t go wrong here.

Everything was fine. The service was average as was the food. My husband and I shared a pizza and ordered two cocktails. The bill (tip included) was just shy of $100.

Bacari GDL is hands down my favorite restaurant in L.A.! If you haven’t tried this place, you’re truly missing out. The food is consistently excellent every time I visit, and the ambience is both hip and incredibly fun. The staff here is exceptional—they make you feel like the most important guest, even when the place is packed. A special shoutout to Christian, Cal, and Gee—thank you for being such wonderful people. Your kindness and attentiveness always stand out. Oh, did I mention they are funny as well? I’m already looking forward to my next visit—see you all tomorrow!

Amazing food! Pork Belly and Stuffed mushrooms are spot on! Service was great. Staff always checked in even noticing my simple but easy glare if I needed something. 😂

The staff was exceptionally great during our last visit. Every single member of the staff checked in and were so nice and accommodating. The food and drinks are always superb and even though it was cold out the heaters were blazing and made it comfortable. The lamb humus and the pear brie pizza was soooo delicious. Oh and they have gluten free pizza dough which is huge for me. I’m a fan I’m of this restaurant.
