I came here for the first time and it was amazing! It was a Tuesday, and all pastas were only $15. The table next to us had four plates of pasta for two people. I support this lifestyle. The staff was super polite and friendly, and the restaurant had such great energy. I had a really pleasant time! The Brussels sprouts were delicious. We also shared the rigatoni and the Nonna pizza with pesto. The pizza was SO good--I really loved the buttery crust on the bottom. BUT OMG, THE DESSERT!!! They had a seasonal olive oil cake, but I had my eye on the rainbow cookie sundae. It's $20, but totally worth it. It wasn't overly sweet, and it comes with FIVE rainbow cookies--two on the side and three inside the sundae! The torched marshmallows weren't too sweet either, and everything was just so perfectly balanced. Honestly, amazing. I love it here I'm definitely coming back. I genuinely wish nothing but the best for this restaurant and hope they continue to succeed. 10/10 would recommend!! read more

I would absolutely recommend Barano to anyone visiting Williamsburg! The restaurant is a bit of a walk from any nearby subway stations, but it's so worth it for great food, amazing service, and pretty views of the water/bridge if you sit outside. The angry nonna pizza was absolutely delicious, with a thick crust that got nicely crispy around the edges and a combination of 3 sauces that worked together beautifully. Both pasta dishes were great, the fettuccine Alfredo is a classic with a luscious creamy sauce and perfectly cooked pasta. But the short rib rigatoni was the unexpected star, with super flavorful meat and the most delicious herby cheesy breadcrumbs on top. The rainbow cookie sundae seemed gimmicky but was the best way to finish our meal, the rainbow cookies are incredible and combined with vanilla ice cream + toasted meringue + tart raspberry jam, it was just a lovely end to the evening. Our server was super kind and all the staff gave great recommendations! read more

an EXCELLENT meal all around! come for the specials and happy hour. me and my girlfriends stopped in on a tuesday for the pasta deals and we're blown away. we had the following: caesar salad - tasty but i've never been a fan of places that serve you a wedge of uncut lettuce and a knife... saffron gigli - this tastes like an elevated kraft mac and cheese in the best way! the hot honey adds a complexity to an otherwise simple dish. must try. linguine with clams - pasta and clams are very fresh mafaldine with peeky toe crab - one of my favorites of the night! so happy they don't use imitation crab here rigatoni ragu - i'm not usually a meat person, but THIS was actually my favorite dish!!! ragu was so flavorful and tender! there were a couple of tiny mixups with our orders, but our server was quick to rectify things. we had a great meal. this is an absolute neighborhood gem. def going to be back! read more

We came here on Wednesday night and it was a really sweet atmosphere. Felt cozy and the staff was very attentive, especially Mamadou. The menu has so many options that I found it hard to choose (which is not a bad thing), but we went with the caesar salad, meatball pie, and gluten free saffron gigli + the rainbow cookie sundae. Caesar salad was delicious but the only caveat was that it was a little small. Wish there was more lettuce on this one! Perfect dressing and light + fresh. Meatball pie- was not one I would have chosen off the bat but I'm glad we did. Very good and the dough is sourdough and perfect. Can't wait to try other pizza options. Saffron Gigli- was very different, but also good. Glad it was gluten free- it's very sweet tho just as a heads up! Rainbow cookie sundae was also very unique and delicious. The rainbow cookies on the side were a little dry but the inside of the sundae was decadent and the vanilla gelato was a really nice touch. The only feedback I'd give is that the prices are very expensive especially for the pizzas, pastas and dessert. Otherwise we would absolutely return! oh also! we originally came in to try the pasta special which offers a few different pastas on one plate and the half pie option but neither were offered when we came in so that was slightly disappointing :/ read more

Dropped into Barano with my friend in the evening. It was weekday evening, still half packed. I recommend making a reservation beforehand. We opted for meat pizza and chicken parm with pasta on the side. Pizza was solid, crusty with chunks of meat. It was paired with chicken parm and a side of pasta. It was surprisingly still crispy and juicy. Side of pasta amplified the taste. Service was great with polished warmth. The ambiance was cozy with rustic intimacy. I would definitely recommend for a date night or just quick hangout. read more

*More like a 2.5 but I'll give it a 3 for the dessert. My sister dragged me here for the rainbow sundae and that was honestly the best part of the night. First of all, we arrived on time but we waited 45 minutes to be sat down at a table. The restaurant was super busy that night, especially it being a Friday. I would have overlooked the waiting time if it weren't that it took a long time to finally get our orders taken. The waiter was nice and charming the times he did pass by our table. We were even there long enough for when the crowd died down and it was still hard to flag down our waiter or any other one. The ambiance is beautiful with low light dimming and Christmas decorations. You know what wasn't pretty? Our food. It was burnt and at first I couldn't tell because of the lack of lighting but when I took a picture with flash, I noticed the burnt areas around my prosciutto and fig pizza and garlic bread. We could taste it as well. We could have asked for a new order but we didn't want to spend the rest of the night there. So we covered the garlic bread in pesto sauce to make it tasty and ate around the black crusts of the pizza. The combination of fig and prosciutto was delicious. As I mentioned earlier, the best part of the night was the dessert. We loved the rainbow cake sundae and the chocolate cake. The cake was rich in taste but not to the point of getting a toothe ache. I really think this place is overhyped and wouldn't come back. Maybe it was an off night but the experience left a bad taste in my mouth along with the burnt bread. read more

Barano gets a solid 3 star rating. In the month of August, Barano had $8 spritzes. My partner and I ordered an original aperol spritz as well as a strawberry spritz. Pretty decent drinks. Time period wise, I went here with my partner sitting restaurant week in August 2025, and we ordered the mozzarella, burrata pizza, carmelle pasta, squid ink bucatini, and a rainbow sundae each. Food wise, pizza was a 4/5. However, the pastas were both sadly overcooked, and not at the el dente texture that we're used to. This place does however, have a great rainbow cookie sundae! It doesn't look very big at first, but this should be shared to avoid an overwhelming sugar rush. Not sure if I'd return, or maybe I'd just stop by to share a rainbow sundae. read more

$15 pasta deal on Tuesday is SOOO worth it! We got the Brussel sprouts salad which was super yummy and then 2 pastas. The saffron Gigli pasta is yummy but REALLY sweet so if that's not your jam, I wouldn't get this. We also got this mushroom/truffle pasta which was also super yummy (and it was originally $31 and we got it for $15 which felt like a huge win)! Overall, very very expensive regularly but $15 Tuesday deal is super worth it! Would be back for that :) read more

We decided to try Barano for restaurant week and mostly their viral rainbow cookie sundae! Upon entering it feels like you are in a wine cellar with rustic decor. Our reservation was for 8pm but we were sat 20 minutes after reso. I attribute it to being restaurant week, as the place was very busy. While awaiting our table we went to the bar to take advantage of the 8 dollar spritz special for August. It was the first time I tried a Hugo spritz, it was amazing- never going back to Aperol! Once we sat our waiter Ivan although he was definitely overloaded took the time out to get to know us personally as a table. He was a great server to have, attune to our needs and pleasant. He even sang a bit for us. As far as the food I'll list my faves- since we got 3 restaurant week menus and 2 extra pastas. My favorite items were: Meatball appetizer- amazing, soft flavorful, tagliatelle bolognese- great sauce flavor, saffron gigli - interesting never tasted something like this before, Denver steak- the sauce it came with for dipping was on umami 10/10. Last but not least of my faves was the rainbow cookie sundae a must have- the meringue on top when mixed with the ice cream was insane! read more

Barano - Saffron Gigli GF AND 'Nduja pizza GF - Pizza Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Barano was one of the top ten meals I've had this year in the city, hands down! This spot was definitely worth the trek to Williamsburg. I will start out with the only negative comment I have: the drinks were not good. I tried 3 different sips and was not a fan of any of them. I was a bit nervous then about how the meal would be, but it was nothing short of spectacular. ALSO, I was quite disappointed that they got rid of the pasta sampler that was on their previous menu - why would they get rid of something that is such a great idea and would let us try more?? We tried a variety of items, all of which I would recommend ordering: Brussels Sprouts (I'm picky about my sprouts and these were perfect), Delicata Squash (probably seasonal but should stay year round); Caccio e Pepe, Vodka Pizza, and the star of the show, the Saffron Gigli- an absolute must! Dessert was also delicious, loved the Rainbow Cookie Sundae and Chocolate Torte. I can't wait to come back - and will stick to ordering a simple Aperol Spritz next time! read more

Barano - Rainbow Cookie Sundae and Chocolate Torte - Pizza Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

The food was fine (the bucatini was AMAZING, cesar salad was a little small for the price tag). Liked the atmosphere, but the vibe was all wrong. I don't expect quiet, especially on a Friday at 8pm, but it was insanely loud in there. It also didn't help that the tables are teeny tiny and I basically had to pick the table up and move it to get to the bench, so I didn't have to climb on top of the people next to us. Service was okay, a little slow and not really attentive. Definitely the wrong move for an anniversary dinner-- based on vibe and lack of specialness or little touches. Also, my biggest pet peeve-- we arrived on time for our reservation and still had to wait for a table. Which I know isn't entirely the staff's fault (some times tables take a minute to turnover for a number of reasons), but it didn't help an already mid experience. read more

Really great from start to finish. Service was great with all servers and managers stepping in and being attentive. We ordered the saffron pasta - uniquely flavoring but really good. Recommend trying. Short rib parpadelle was 10/10 definitely recommend ordering. And we started with the bone marrow tartare and it was really good. Just wish there was a little more. And lastly finished with the chocolate chip cookie which was very good. Overall highly recommend, we will be visiting again. read more

I called on a Thursday asking to make a reservation for the next day at 7pm for 10+ people. There is a $9.95 cancellation/no show fee per person (same on Resy). The staff member I spoke to was really nice and told me that as long as we showed up, they wouldn't charge me a cancellation fee. Day of, we were all running a little late. I called to let Barano know and they said it was completely fine. I arrived a few minutes late and they showed us to a table in the back. It was quieter here which I appreciated for our large group. Some of my group did the restaurant week (RW) menu while the rest ordered off the regular menu. They are doing $8 spritz for August. I tried the barano (strawberry) spritz and the hugo (elderflower) spritz, both were quite good. 4/5 Appetizer: Endive Salad Fresh, a little bitter, great sauce 5/5 Appetizer: Garlic bread I read that this was a $5 add-on for RW but we were charged $12 for each garlic bread. Unsure if I misunderstood the menu. The garlic bread was amazing though. Everyone at the table raved about how good it was. It was pillowy with a nice chew. It looked like there was a greenish base spread across the top and then black garlic sprinkled across the top, centered in the middle. 3.5/5 Entree: Roasted Corn Caramelle The filling didn't have the roasted taste, just creamy sweet corn and felt more like a dessert than a savory entree. The pasta wasn't al dente but that didn't bother me. Overall good but I would have liked an entree to be more savory. *the RW steak is a winner. 1/5 Dessert: Olive Oil Cake I'm usually a fan of olive oil flavored things like cake and ice cream- that is to say I've tried a number of olive oil desserts already. I was expecting a cake with the taste/essence of olive oil, not straight up olive oil lol. Cutting through the center of the cake, you can tell it is dense and a bit saturated with oil... not ideal. My friend tried it and said "that's olive oil alright." 1/5 Dessert: Rainbow Cookie Sundae This was entirely too sweet. It's like 4 desserts in one. There's a marshmallow topping then ice cream, then cake, then a reddish jam (raspberry?) at the bottom. I was only able to have a couple of bites before I tapped out. It took 20 minutes to get all of our orders so by the time everyone arrived and ordered, it was 7:50pm. We didn't leave until around 10:30pm. Service was slow and we could tell our server was stressed and very busy. We later learned that he's usually the bartender and was just helping out because it was so busy. He was so wonderful. One of my friend's pasta orders was input wrong so he gave her spaghetti on the house so she could eat after the rest of us got our food. Then he came back with her actual order later, the lobster pasta. But she said it didn't really taste like anything, she could tell they rushed it. Our server took it off her order and then offered that she order anything else she wanted on the house. I actually brought my friends here because I wanted to try Barano's restaurant week menu for my birthday. One of my friends sneakily told our server and they brought out a rainbow sundae for me to celebrate! I realized later that they charged us for the sundae! I've never seen that happen before in all the years I've celebrated my birthday anywhere, including in NYC. While I appreciate the thought, it left a bad taste in my mouth that they charged us for it, listing it on the receipt as "*THE* Rainbow Cookie Sundae" when we didn't even ask for this. The interior is pretty. It feels rustic and a bit homey. It's somewhat dim here, feeling dressed up in a casual way. So Barano gets points for their interior, great service, and good appetizers but the other things could be better. I likely wouldn't return. read more

Food 8/10 A homey and traditional Italian spot located south of Williamsburg. I thought the appetizers were better than the main, and the tiramisu was stellar too - dare I say even the star of the show. The prosciutto was nice to start with, and I quite enjoyed the chewiness of the focaccia. The saffron pasta was quite interesting, although a little too watery for my preference. Atmosphere 8/10 Soft and dim lighting, a relatively large interior, and plenty of great conversations. Dark wooden surfaces, elegant and nothing too fussy. Service 8/10 Our host gave us great thoughts on the different cocktails, very friendly and solid experience overall. read more

This place is yummy. I agree with another reviewer - it's not the most authentic Italian but fresh pasta with great flavor makes it a winner. The place is nice for a date or larger group. It has a good vibe. A lil too dark for me but that is just personal preference. They have a good deal right now with discounted wines for January and of course their restaurant week menu is fire. Good lil spot in south Willy. read more

I absolutely love Baranos. Last night was my second time there in the last month. We booked reservations each time and were seated right away. The decor of the restaurant makes it feel very romantic and is chic! The food is absolutely amazing! Everything I have tried there so far has been nothing but the best quality and tastes delicious! Mouth watering actually! I told all my friends about this spot and definitely will keep this as must go to spot Atleast once a month. The waitress was great we had her both times we came in and she explained some menu items we were not sure about. Such a sweetheart! She had our whole table laughing. I love a restaurant that has great staff, food, and atmosphere. This is definitely my top pick in Williamsburg! I definitely recommend this spot to any and everyone! Thank you! read more

Love their food, their staff is friendly and they have perfect outdoor and indoor space!!

I thought the food here was really good. It wasn't authentic, but the textures and flavors were so good. In terms of pricing it's very on par with New York prices. I really enjoyed the ambience and the waiter was very attentive and took care of my gluten-free friend. Unfortunately, one of my friends did get food poisoning from a dish that I did not try. That was obviously really unfortunate and did kind of make the experience less exciting but overall it was enjoyable besides that. read more

Run don't walk to Barano, especially for restaurant week! Food: as per usual, the quality of barano's food is flawless! Everything is delicious and tastes incredible fresh! We ordered from the restaurant week menu - so got arancini for our main, the cacio e Pepe and eggplant ravioli for our mains, and the olive oil cake and cannoli for dessert! Everything was so amazing!it's so hard choosing a favorite! Also usually restaurants pair down the portion sizes for restaurant week but barano didn't! We both wanted arancini for example, so each got our own app and I expected just 2 arancini's - instead they gave us each 5! Needless to say we were stuffed at the end of this meal! Service: I loved our waiter - he was so funny and really great! Very attentive! Ambience: I love the vibe of barano, it feels upscale and homey at the same time! Price: restaurant week dinner came out to $60 after tax and tip! read more

Delicious! Came for the Christmas Eve Feast of the Seven Fishes, and every dish was amazing! The octopus contrasted well with the potatoes, the branzino was perfectly cooked with crispy skin, and the squid ink pasta had plenty of mussels.

I was in the area today and decided to go to that place. Host was nice and friendly. Restaurant looks good and clean. Food was ok nothing special but not bad at all. I haven't any drink so I don't know about those. Let's go on the service now the guy who took the order it was hard to hear was he was saying (looks like he was feeling bored to level up his voice so we can hear him) we got a pizza and the chicken Parmesan and we add the pasta . He ask if we want tomato sauce or vodka sauce we say tomato. The chicken did come with tomato sauce the pasta came with vodka and at this point I don't know if it should come like that because the server never came to check the table not even came to look the table ppl walk around none of them checked except one guy who filled the glasses with water. When we finished he showed up he take our plates and immediately bring the check on the table again, didn't check on us if everything was ok and of course he didn't ask if we want any dessert or something else, he was like that's it get out pay and go. I feel mad and confused the same time while we was in the restaurant I see other servers checking the tables next to us and I saw that guy going and checking another table. So he might say that we not worth attention because we order 2 plates ? Well bring up your game and try sale more plates but obviously he is an order taker not at all a hospitality person. read more

Sadly, I haven't had such a bad meal in a long time. The reviews were mixed and we decided to give it a try. Saffron Gigli - came as an electric red (bright Cheeto red) color. I still gave it a try and there was a morbid aftertaste, almost like soap. I can't find another word for it, but it tasted toxic. Tagliatelle Alla bolognese - I didn't think anyone could mess up bolognese, but wow, this was truly mushy and gross. It did not taste fresh at all. I've lived in NY for most of my life and I truly have not had such bad Italian food in a long long time and I needed to write this review because if you're on the fence like we were, don't do it. Do not order from here. Photos attached. read more

Barano - Maccheroni and Cacio e Pepe Arancini - Pizza Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Came in on a Saturday night without a reservation and was sat at a table quickly. My boyfriend saw the large bar and we decided we would sit there as there was a bit more room than the table had. The drink menu was impressive with many different flavors and catchy names. I had the "did your mom marry Mr. Rogers?" Which was vodka based with dragonfruit & thyme finished off with prosecco. Truly refreshing. We then started off with the endive salad which I had to have after reading peaches and caciocavallo cheese in the same sentence. It did not disappoint. Probably my favorite salad I had the whole month of June. The meatballs were fantastic as well, tender with a great flavor profile. We were keeping it light so we just split a pizza for our entree. My boyfriend has been craving a rainbow pizza so that is what we ordered. It was more Detroit style in my opinion but it was delicious, all of the flavored marries each other well. The star of the show here is the viral rainbow cookie sundae which is a limited item. The fresh rainbow cookie, the gelato, the raspberry reduction all topped with a torched marshmallow meringue! Beautiful and delicious. The view from Barano cannot be beat either. Highly recomm read more

What else can I say except that I've been here twice in two weeks? It just hits the spot so perfectly. Extensive wine list, cute cocktails, lots of good food. Mainly the pizza is my favorite, but the pasta is also great. I love the vibe of the whole place. It's definitely a great spot for a small group, not too loud but also not ever feeling empty.

I'm a pasta guy and this place hit. The portions were a tiny small but the flavors made up for it!! We got the two pictures pastas. The short rib in the Paccheri was amazing. The vodka sauce on the Maccheroni flavorful and not basic. We also got an appetizer I forgot to take a picture of. We got the Cacio E Pepe Aranchini, so this is a funny story. They were very good and they came with this lime aioli. So we tried the lime aioli on its own and it was so so. Once we dipped the Aranchini in it, wow it worked together so well. I'm glad we didn't just dismiss it after first try. I would definitley recommend giving the a try. We went at an off time and the restaurant was slow and the staff was super attentive.

I ordered Barano on DoorDash and have to say it's one of my favorite Italian places in South Williamsburg. The food came fast, it was well packaged in eco-friendly and modernly designed take out containers. What we ordered: -Paccheri ($25) - not on their menu as of late, but these huge pasta pieces are like gigantic flat rigatoni with wild boar sauce. Rich in flavor, pasta cooked to perfection -Large Half Vodka Pie / Half Nduja Pie ($29) - who doesn't like variety? You can order half/half on their pizzas. Nduja was good but the sausage pieces are really small and crumbly, I preferred the vodka half. It's actually orange, not red sauce, and has gotta be some of the most flavorful vodka sauce I've had in NYC yet -Caesar salad ($14) - semolina croutons with crunchy romaine and perfectly flavored dressing Will definitely be ordering from here again and at quite reasonable prices too! read more

Came here for my mothets birthday with my dad and grandparents. We started with a side salad and the Brussels sprouts salad both were good, I preferred the Brussels sprouts salad a bit more since it was more flavorful in my opinion. For entree I had the a la vodka. It was gluten free and still delish which was nice, also it is a lot lighter than any other vodka I ever had which was refreshing but definitely different it flavor as well. We also had at the table the branzino, the salmon, the ragu pasta and the clam sauce pasta. The highlights were the ragu pasta dish and the salmon according to the table. We ended with an olive oil cake and a chocolate torte. I would definitely order a torte here again it was delish. It's nice to know there's a good Italian spot around the corner from me. read more

Consistently impressive food. I first visited Barano on a mission to try something new in my neighborhood. It happened to be Pasta Tuesday (all pastas $15). Our server Patrick was funny and so kind. After returning for a third time, I can definitely attest to the quality of service and food you'll get here. As an appetizer I recommend the garlic bread and brussel sprouts. All of the pastas are delicious and freshly made. The saffron gigli is a bit on the sweeter side for my taste but good to share. I've tried several of the pastas but two of my favorites are the maccheroni and the cavatelli. Drinks here are fantastic and are named after the Mean Girls movie which was funny. Inside you're met with a series of booths and small tables. It's quite an intimate setting with dim lighting perfect for a date or casual dinner. Barano is a neighborhood gem and I'm excited to keep coming back. read more

Excellent take out. I ordered the chicken parmigiana, barano garlic bread and Brussels Sprout Salad and everything was "magically delicious." At first glance, I thought I would hate the chicken parmigiana assuming it was dry as there was minimal sauce. It was served like a pizza which I had never seen done before. To my surprise it was perfect. The chicken had a crisp to the edge but was still juicy and flavorful. You could tell they used high quality ingredients. That barano garlic bread? Chef's kiss. Even the Brussels sprouts salad was great. It was light, cheesy and fun to eat. I think I found a new regular spot ! read more

We asked several times on the phone when we were ordering for takeout that they wrote gluten free on the order and they said yes definitely which put us at ease. Two hours after we eat (exactly the same time frame when she's gotten sick other times after eating gluten unknowingly), my friend is now so sick and feels awful. After reaching out to a friend that has eaten there, she told me that the same thing happened to her friend too and they gave her a gift card for her troubles. This is not something to mess up. This is insane and I feel horribly for my friend who is so sick now :( not a gf friendly place read more

Stumbled into here for dinner one night - we ordered a large nduja pizza because the ingredients sounded really interesting. Unfortunately, it just wasn't great. The nduja wasn't evenly distributed and was kinda just in random clumps on the pizza. The pie was also DRIPPING in honey which made it disgustingly syrupy instead of adding a slight hint of sweetness. Hoping it was just an off night & would deff give it another shot. read more
