I think the space here is great. A balcony overlooking Metry road is welcome! I have been a couple of times and the staff is always sweet as can be. My most recent visit here was during HH, which is great by the way. It is weekdays from 3-6 and there a few apps and a few drinks on the happy hour menu. I ordered the mini martini espresso, I mean, who doesn't love a martini espresso on the HH menu?! And we ordered the waffle fries - LOVE waffle fries, why have sticks when you can have number signs ##?! And we had the fried green beans - now this was quick a pleasant surprise. I was not sure how I would feel about these, but since it was a good price, I tried it, andddd I really liked it! Overall, we had a great time here and will of course be back. I want to try that frozen drink they have too. Everything here is clean, everyone here is nice, the food is pretty good, and there is a decent amount of parking. read more

Looooved everything posted. The steak was cooked to preference: medium rare. Potatoes had a nice velvety interior and a great blistering sensation after the first bite. The chimichurri sauce paired well with the entire meal. Gnocchi were fluffy pillows of dough. Chewy and had coasted with the pea pesto that was light and bright. Staff were friendly and attentive. We sat on the upstairs deck that had a covering. Enjoyed my time here and great for brunch! read more

Good vibes all around! We had a big group and sat upstairs, and it was gorgeous. I loved rooftop and the service was so great! The staff was very helpful and attentive. I ordered the burger after everyone said how good it was... and honestly I wasn't too impressed. It was slightly overcooked and lacking flavor. The menu is limited, so I do wish there were more options. I definitely want to come back, but need to try something else! read more

Barcar - Burger - Sports Bars Near Me - Metairie, Louisiana

We had a great Sunday brunch with cocktails at Barcar in Old Metairie. Parking was easy in the front lot, and arriving early meant we beat the crowds. The downstairs bar is nicely set up, but the upstairs area is truly the standout. The bar up there may be smaller, but the balcony-side tables offer a wonderfully relaxing view. On our visit we enjoyed the Spicy Tuna Crispy Rice appetizer, Shrimp Tacos and a Barcar Burger. Everything was wonderful and tasty. I highly recommend Barcar for couples seeking a relaxing Sunday Brunch. read more

Didn't make it in time for the full dinner menu, but the BarCar Burger was more than enough; juicy grass fed beef, caramelized onions, American cheese, everything-bagel brioche bun, and waffle fries with roasted garlic aioli. If you've been here before, what should I try next? read more

We finally made it to Barcar! So impressed! Service was exceptional. We decided to sit downstairs to avoid the sun, despite the cool vibe up. Oh! How impressed I was after acclimating and taking in the atmosphere. I never imagined this place would present this refined/casual. The chicken Caesar is chopped! So easy to eat and delicious! Highly recommend. We also tried the fettuccini pasta and truffle waffle fries....ALL Great! Again-Service was superb, and we will be back Many Times! Upstairs was enjoyed after the sun went down. Plenty of TV's for sports. We love Barcar! read more

This place is so cute and great for lunch! We sat on the rooftop patio which was great. They had a little bar up there and some tvs. We got the chicken Caesar wrap and the burger! Both were great!! If you love lemon, you'll love the Caesar wrap!! The burger was super juicy and cooked perfectly. The fries were also really good and well seasoned. The service was also great. The food came out super quick. We will be back! read more

I've ordered from here a lot and usually it's great, but I decided to try the burger for the first time tonight. It was so disappointing! It was cooked medium/medium-rare when I asked for medium well and online it said it came with onions and pickles which I got neither of. It was literally just meat cheese and bun:( Very frustrating to pay for a burger at this cost and it not live up to the standard. Wasn't able to eat majority of it. read more

Man they took so long for my food to come out and it was bad when it got here. Will not be coming back

Location- in case you don't k is there is an upstairs area with a balcony with a bar that you sit and enjoy! Food was good! We went on a Saturday evening at dusk. Place was packed. Service was slow for us, so trying not to let that impress my rating. However, I think overall it is a solid place! read more

We got lunch here and everything we had was amazing. I got the burger and definitely on the list of one of the best burgers I've had. Truffle fries were crispy and really well seasoned too. read more

I think Barcar is a cute spot! I've experienced a Friday afternoon happy hour in the downstairs dining area as well as the inside bar for some late night drinks, and both were a nice time. My happy hour server was sweet and very attentive given how busy she was. You can't beat the $5 Friday martinis, and my chicken Cesar wrap was good! (Just annoying that it's a $1.50 upcharge for the wrap as opposed to the salad, lol.) The bartender was super chill and helpful with explaining drinks. The upstairs area is large and great for hanging out on a cool day or evening, so I won't be getting much use out of that space until probably October, lol. Parking can be tricky as there's only the parking lot and spite along the railroad; you may have to circle a time or two. But, all in all, a cute Old Metairie Rd spot! read more

Cool Metairie spot for dinner, drinks, or to watch a game!!! They have steak night on Wednesday and this one you don't want to miss! The staff is always very kind and service is good!!! Definitely a solid spot! Parking is ehh but the location is great!! Love that you can sit upstairs even when rainy because it's closed in!! Kind of cold and could have better heaters but small trade off for a good spot! read more

I've been several times for steak night. I have always received outstanding service, even when I was alone at a 4-top. I really enjoy the quality and taste of the steak, and the ceasar salad is refreshing. However - the last time I was there they served runny mashed potatoes with the steak. REALLY??? Who serves mashed potatoes with steak?? It was quite disgusting. read more

I came here after a bridal shower with a large group. We were told we could just go up on the rooftop and seat ourselves. We got a nice table upstairs. Service was great, everyone was friendly! The spicy margarita was delicious. I got the Caesar wrap with fried chicken and it was so good and light. I definitely will be back! read more

I stopped by Barcar for the first time recently, and while it has a cute vibe and the staff were super friendly, the experience overall was not great. The service was extremely slow, which made it hard to enjoy the meal. I ordered the Mexican Pistol, which was refreshing, and for food, I had the chicken sandwich with waffle fries. As appetizers, we shared the spinach dip and the parmesan and miso butter biscuits. Honestly, the biscuits were the standout--easily the best part of the meal. I'm hoping Barcar can speed things up a bit because I'd love to go back and explore the menu. read more

Wow it's loud for no reason. Music is nice but people feel they have to scream. Bad: The tuna sticky rice is just plain bad. The ponzu doesn't soak up and the sticky rice is too much and flavorless. They need to rework that whole thing. The oysters were not what was on menu but were fantastic. Fried with ranch amongst other things. Delicious and fried perfectly. The lobster roll was one of the better ones I've had for a while but could have used some melted butter on the side. read more

Barcar - Very light Comos - Sports Bars Near Me - Metairie, Louisiana

this was a horrible experience. I was really excited because I saw this restaurant on social media and I went with a friend expecting to have a great steak night. However it was anything but that we were not greeted when we walked into the rooftop bar, so we went downstairs where the table was not clean the server did not clean it until another guest sat next to us and cleaned their spot first. We ordered the second we sat down and waited one hour then after that hour, we were told they ran out of steak. However, the person next to us ordered steak but they came after us. The server did not explain to us what was happening and then we had discussed a salad because of my dietary restrictions and I was given a plate of lettuce. read more

I am so disappointed. I went here on a Wednesday night, the night of their steak special, and was treated with a disregard I cannot truly put my finger on. My friend in I came in, we were not greeted. We went to the roof top it was full. We sat in the general area downstairs. After 30 minutes, a waitress came to take our order. Sitting at a dirty table she assured us she would clean the area. We placed our order. 30 minutes later we got our drinks. We order the steaks. We are told another 30 minutes later there are no more steaks. A couple next to us sits down after us, they ordered steaks. They wait for their their steaks. My friend asked for the manager. We were bred up getting the steak frites but even as I write this I don't know how to feel read more

went twice in the past week actually because was so happy with our first visit. Atmosphere is great, it's a really fun bar vibe but still with sit down tables and full service from the waiters. Drinks are so good. All the food was delicious but my absolute favorite was the crispy rice and tuna. Came back again on Wednesday for steak night which was delicious and such a good deal. Overall, love this place and so happy it's here! read more

Drinks, superb, food excellent! Atmosphere, a little noisy. Overall a good experience. My only complaints are that it's loud, but they can't really help that and they brought the salad with the entrée. It was steak night and for $20 you really can't beat it! read more

Barcar - La Fuente cocktail - Sports Bars Near Me - Metairie, Louisiana

Had high hopes for this place after seeing the pictures of their chicken Caesar wrap on instagram (go look; it looks awesome)... Was incredibly disappointed when I received it. It was a fraction of the size with maybe 6 small pieces of chicken in it and in general very bland. Makes me not want to go back given the egregious false advertising Only reason it's not 1 star is it was a to-go order so maybe that had something to do with it read more

Went in around 10 pm ... staff was really nice and went out of their way to accommodate us .. cooked us a couple of burgers, which were very tasty! This was a Monday night and we were the only people there- so they went above and beyond for us read more

Really enjoyed this spot & will be back! Service was a little slow but I usually expect this as new and trending places. Spicy tuna crispy rice is soo delicious we ordered another one! We never got it and canceled it, I think our server may have forgotten. All in all was a good experience & great for a girls night. read more

We went here on Saturday, 10/12. It was one of the first beautiful, autumn nights, and we were happy to get a table on the upstairs balcony/patio. Funny note, on the wall directly in front of me, were two TVs, each showing the LSU/Ole Miss game. Except on of them was easily 20 seconds behind the other, so it was a little confusing at first to see everything twice. They probably should have just put another game on the delayed TV. I originally wrote this review a few days ago, but realized it had turned into a long rant that sounded like a personal attack on our server, so I deleted it. But I will say that our server that night should not be a customer-facing person in hospitality. She wasn't just bad at her job, but she really seemed to dislike it. I won't say she was rude, but she definitely gave a vibe of...well...she doesn't like serving people. And she really was not good at it. Now, the food was mostly pretty good. My GF had the tuna rice crisps, and really like them. I got their dry-aged burger, and the burger was pretty good. The waffle fries that came with it were terrible. They looked great - golden brown and crispy looking, but they were bland, tough, and chewy. In all honesty, I wasn't sure I should eat the fries anyway, and, well, that wasn't a problem. They were terrible. So, overall, if we had gotten an engaged and friendly server, this review could be a 4. Yes, the fries were terrible, but the rest of the food was good and it was a nice, comfortable evening. But, IF we go back and if we see the same server, we'll leave. I'm leaving out the laundry list of reasons why I'm saying that - she was just a bad waitress, and she didn't want to be there. Which made us not want to deal with her. In fact, based on the service from this one person, I really feel like 3 stars is too many. Oh, by the way, the gentleman that brought us our drinks, and the lady who brought us our food, were very friendly and responsive. It was just the main waitress in the upstairs area on that Saturday night. read more

Lovely spot for a drink and a bite. Great outdoor seating upstairs. We'll be back again for a date night (no kids allowed after 3pm.)

Third time is the charm! First owners tried hard to make this place a bougie style foodie type place. It was ok, but didn't really take off. Second owners attempted to do the same, but I'm not sure exactly what the issues were. Maybe management, maybe patrons didn't like the type of small bites they offered. Third owners have knocked it out the park. I've eaten there 3 times since the re-brand "Barcar". This place is a fancy top notch bar/ cocktail lounge where you can order excellent food and cocktails. Upstairs is a bit more of a casual setting where you can hang out with your friends and watch sporting events on their huge screen tv. You can also order the same food and drinks as downstairs, but in a more relaxed outdoor setting. This place should last a long time as long as they continue doing what they do. If I had to give a negative, it would be that I believe the waiter staff could use a few more servers. (This is a problem everywhere at the moment) The wait staff they have are friendly, efficient, and attentive. They are non stop, but a tad overwhelmed which can make service slow service. I had the chicken sandwich which was possibly the best chicken sandwich I've ever eaten. I've been twice for steak night, in which they serve a much better cut of meat than any other bar in the area at the same price. This place is becoming one of my favorite for a quick dinner in the area! read more

Did we just find our new favorite place in Metairie? YUP! And it's a walk from our house. The food was incredible and the cocktails were expertly made. The time saver was refreshing and perfect to drink on the rooftop. The spicy tuna crispy rice is something I'll crave. The shrimp tacos were amazing. The burger with pawpaws brioche bun may be my favorite burger I've had at a restaurant in a long time. The rooftop was modern with a large TV to watch the game. Seating was seat yourself on the rooftop. Music was a bit loud but nothing we couldn't talk over. We will be back many times! read more

Drinks are great and it's a nice place to drink & enjoy some good appetizers on the outside deck upstairs. Not gonna lie, service really could have been better. We drank there for hours, hanging out, and it wasn't very busy at first but the servers during the day shift weren't very attentive to us & got our food order wrong (nbd), but i feel it got better as the night went on because we did get a different server since we stayed into the next shift. I would give it another shot, since it may have been a one off- and it is a cool place to hang out. read more

For our anniversary, my fiancé and I decided to try this new spot that I saw on instagram and boy were we blown out of the water! Al (Albert) & Joanna (I'm if that's now how you spell it) were amazing servers who both took care of us the whole time. The food was delicious, very flavorful, and it came out pretty quick too for how busy the bar was. (Wednesday night steak night is a must for sure!) We also ordered raw oysters but those were so good I forgot to grab a picture :) . For only being open 5 months, everything runs pretty smoothly, the ambiance is refreshing, and this spot is definitely added to our "go-to" list! read more

Fun atmosphere with open windows. Happy Hour drinks were yummy. Also, Caesar salad was on point.

Epic disappointment! It's really sad that the experience was not good bc this place has all the components of what would make a great place. We stopped in thinking we could have a quick bite to eat and enjoy our Sunday afternoon. We sat upstairs. The chairs were super wobbly and the tables that were open were not very clean. We were greeted pretty quickly and brought water. We ordered drinks and some oysters. The waitress came back and asked which type of oysters we wanted. She didn't know the options and there was nothing on the menu to distinguish which types were available. She came back and told us, but said she was new. We ordered. Service was so slow. Drinks took a long time. After they sat on the bar for some time, they were finally brought over. We had to get up and grab napkins. So disappointing when people don't have basic understanding that cold drinks quickly die in the window and ice melts rapidly in hot temps so things like cocktail napkins are essential so you aren't sitting in puddles of water when you offer outdoor seating. The oysters came. We had to ask for everything- napkins, forks, crackers. These oysters were so tiny that it almost wasn't even worth the effort to eat them. We asked for crackers. We got a total of 8 crackers. We open them and they were stale. Also an issue with outdoor venues- keep the stuff inside. As we were sitting, no one bothered to ask if we wanted to order anything else and we figured things would only get worse. We asked for the check and paid over 60.00 for a dozen tiny oysters and 2 drinks. It's a one and done for me. It seemed as we entered and exited, the downstairs bar would have been a better option. Maybe this is good for drinks only, but the level of service needs a complete overhaul. It's truly sad when you are googling places nearby to eat while you are supposed to be having dinner. read more

Went for lunch on Thursday. We both started with the margaritas. It was pretty good. For food I got the turkey sandwich and my friend got the club both with fries. I was very happy with my choice. Definitely recommend and will need to go again at dinner. read more
