Inspired by the chic mid-century yacht culture of Southern Italy and the fresh flavours of the Pacific Northwest, we bring sun-drenched coastal flavours to Calgary.

Our dishes reimagine quintessentially Mediterranean fare with locally sourced West Coast ingredients. From zesty aperitifs, fresh crisp sides, bright mains and unashamedly indulgent desserts, each item on our menu will refresh your senses and transport you to a sunny boat deck on the Amalfi Coast.

    We loved the ambience and food!! It was our first time at Barbarello and thrilled with our table by the fireplace. What wasn’t thrilling was the server. Her was not friendly. Not engaged. Basically indifferent and abrupt. It was so unfortunate as we are big tippers but not today. The server wrecked the top for Everyone.

    The service from the hostess stand to the server were outstanding as always. The food is always tasty and consistent at Barbarella no matter what you order. I appreciate suggestions or alternatives from the wait staff. They always know how to make the food next level.
