Loud! Loud! Loud!
It's a shame this restaurant has the music at a decible level that is deafening. It is pretty and the food is good. I wouldn't go back because it was impossible to have enjoyable dinner conversation because the music was so loud it hurt my ears. Too bad.

Salty!
The food was Sooo salty I turned into a salt lick. My seed crusted tuna was hard as a rock. The salmon had a good minty flavor but was dry. The hummus tasted like kidney beans. The room was overly loud even as the music was low and there were few diners. it was so loud in the room the waitress had difficulty taking our orders. Waitstaff was efficient, but slightly pushy. there was insufficient lighting in the bathroom area. it was so dark I could not touch up my make up since I could barely see my own reflection in the mirrors. The space is pretty, with classy decorations. the price suited the menu, but not the flavors. overall a restaurant worth forgetting.

Wonderful Night
My Husband and I ate at Barbounia last night and had a great time. The service was great and the atmosphere was so beautiful with all the candles. And to top it all off the food was great too. I can't wait to go back and try something else

Couldn't tell if it was 2pm or 2am
Despite the fact that at 2pm on a Sunday it's difficult to tell if it was 2am simply given the noise, the crowd, the music, and the soire-like atmosphere, I totally loved this place. The food was delish. The middle eastern eggs are higly recommended. I even started putting tahini on my eggs from that pt on. This is a great place for large groups, but IF you want to go w/a date, they'd better be someone you know quite well b/c it can be a bit noisy for two newbies to chat/get to know each other. The $15 extra gets you unlimited mimosas, bellinis, champagne - a big plus....the only thing that killed me were these "manhattan moms" who sit at the bar, w/their 3 yr old in tow drinking an OJ, as they down bellinis w/their girl-friends (the ones that are single and 40 yrs old), as both adults are getting sloshed.

Novice bar staff
The bar staff here doesn't know what to charge for drinks: one bartender didn't know what Amaretto was. And two parts Jack Daniels + one part Amaretto cost $24. Not even the most expensive bar in NYC will charge that amount for a Godfather! Avoid this place at all costs!

Great brunch
Never tried for dinner, but go there for brunch on a regular basis and love it. Food is great, they have a nice choice of eggs and Mediterranean specials, portions are good which makes it easy to share and I really enjoy the atmosphere and a pretty nice crowd
