Good food and interesting choices, but over-priced, miniscule portions with a dash of pretension and loud kids on the side. I received a gift card to this place (...or so I thought) so my wife and I decided to give it a try. The menu was filled with interesting choices, so we ordered beyond our card, anxious to try what awaited! No denying the food was good, but we were glad we ordered the extra because the portions were small. Considering the tapas and small plates were well over $10.00 and not a few were approaching or over $20.00 I expected a bit more heft. The whole place from servers to clientele had a hipster/millennial with money vibe. A large group of those millennials were gathered at a table next to us. They were drinking fine wine and talking loudly while their two and three year old kids were running amuck. Finally when we went to pay, our gift card was rejected because we were at the wrong location. Yes, in small print it did indicate that there were two locations and the card was only good for the Manhattam Beach wine bar (owned by the same people), but I would think they might waive that for first time guests to gain some good will. No such luck. Overall, if I were independently wealthy and not bothered by high prices and small portions and being surrounded by people flaunting their wealth and imposing their children on others, I would probably recommend. Since I am not, I cannot recommend. read more

This is a neighborhood gem. Who would think that in a strip mall you would find a restaurant fit for a true foodie. Everything we had from lamb cheeks, pork belly, and mussels to our chocolate fig brownie was amazing. Will definitely go back! read more

We ate in the restaurants outside patio area last night. Despite calling at last minute on a Saturday evening, they were able to accommodate us. The food was outstanding, so flavorful with Mediterranean and North African elements. We enjoys the Hand of Fatima appetizer (dips and olives) with delicious fresh bread. My husband said the swordfish ceviche was amongst best he's had. Loved the tender short rib sliders and the house-made chicken pate as well. Service was on point, the gentleman who helped us (owner perhaps?) was charming and the hostess and other support staff were diligent and helpful. What a great find ! Will definitely be back! read more

Drove here to meet my aunt for dinner last night. I rarely think Most of the dishes I order are excellent, but everything but the ceviche here was. Nice work Barsha, will be back when I'm in town. read more

Stopped in for a lovely dinner with my wife, we were very pleased with our experience. Service was great and they have an amazing wine on tap selection! If you are into good food and wine, I highly recommend you try Barsha!! read more

We ate at Barshas one Saturday night a few weeks ago with another couple. The outdoor seating was toasty warm from heat lamps and perfectly spaced to meet Covid requirements. And the food was FANTASTIC as well as the service. This isn't a place that you stop in for a quick bite. No way. This is a dining experience complete with a sommalier and face time with the proprietor. Like many before us, we ordered the cauliflower and mussels. Both were excellent. We went on to share a pasta dish, lamb cheeks and falafel minis. But I ordered a special item, chicken liver pate. For many that will sound gross but to me it was heaven. It was served with crostini, pistachios and a sweet jammy goo. I highly recommend it. Regardless, once restaurants open again, we're going back for more Tunisian goodness. We also polished off two great bottles of wine so we were there for at least 2.5 hours and no rushing us out the "door." read more

I was so happy with my comfort food meatloaf dinner for 4 that we had last night!! The dinner was hot and just delicious!! They are very good even with comfort foods they offer in lieu of their regular Tunisian menu (due to the Takeout policy for restaurants in place with the coronavirus shelter in place mandate.) Our dinner for 4 was generous in portions for a reasonable price!! The dinners come in heavy-duty foil containers with lids so they stay hot. We are looking forward to another dish tonight which is chicken pot pie and will order one of their rotating options at least 2 times a week to help our family stay well-nourished and happy during this time. Cant wait until they open for sit down again so we can have the Tunisian dishes they offer. Thank you Barsha Famly! the efurds read more

I don't usually write reviews but Barsha is so good I just had to share... I have been to Barsha multiple times now and always have a great experience and the food is consistently amazing! Every time I have been Adnon, one of the owners has been there and he is such a lovely host, he really completes the experience! Highly recommend!!! read more

This restaurant is fantastic - food, wine selection, service, decor, parking, etc. We are repeat customers and we have not been disappointed. read more

Fantastic- very personalized service. Salads prepared with fresh items from the farmers market. I recommend trying the Falafel sliders that tasted great and were cooked perfectly. The tomato soup was also very good. Everything was excellent and I recommend that you support this business. I would definitely go here again. read more

Love it. Very interesting dishes, tasty wine and attentive service. My kind of place!

Heavenly food on earth. A dinner you end up thinking about the next morning. Incredible service and the most delicious meal I've had in a very long time. The waiters are so attentive without being in your face. It was my birthday dinner and I felt so taken care of! We had the Tunisian bruschetta, pappardelle, and lamb meatballs. Each dish was a beautiful, tasty experience. Highly highly recommend. read more

This is one of my favorites in the area. The food is absolutely delicious, everything. The service is impeccable. Definitely will recommend it will return again. read more

This place is truly a gem. The owners Adnen and Lenora pour so much of their souls into this place and you can feel it the second you enter. I have been living in the South Bay for most of my life and this place has the best ambience. We went on a night with live music which I would highly recommend. Great for a fun night out with friends or a date. The service was impeccable, the food was great and the overall vibe was just super cool and fun! I couldn't recommend this place more! read more

We really wanted to like the place for two reasons we love mediterran food and it's walking distance from our home. Sadly we will most likely not go again. The food was too salty and the service was avg. Charging extra for bread when you asked if we wanted more is not a good way to get repeat customer. If you're going to charge more for the bread that came with the dish, then let us know. read more

So delicious! Staff is super friendly. Felt very safe to eat there during COVID. I'll definitely be back

We were really excited to see Barsha opening a location close to our house, since there aren't a lot of great dining options within walking distance. Barsha's Manhattan Beach location is great for a wine bar, so the promise of something similar with a full kitchen around the corner from us was met with great expectations. More work is needed for that promise to be realized, though. This new location has good potential, but they still need to work on the details. Pro's: we made a reservation on resy for 6pm on a Saturday and had no issue at all getting promptly seated. The space overall is pretty decent, although a little sparsely decorated. The price was extremely reasonable for South Bay restaurants, and the lamb meatballs and the arugula salad were both excellent. We didn't bring our daughter, but the space is kid friendly and they do have a kid menu, which is a great to see in a local foodie spot. Con's. We ordered the wine on tap and it was bad. No other way to say it. This was HUGELY disappointing as Barsha's brand is all about the wine. We ordered 250ml of the Cab Franc to split and it was really bad. Super tannic, almost worthy of a send back. After that, we asked for a taste of the Tempranillo and the Red Blend. The tastes were so tiny that you could barely tell what it was, especially as one taste was brought out for two of us. Granted they're free but considering it's wine on tap and we're going to order $30+ of it if we like it, this is disappointingly poor service. The red blend was not very good. The Tempranillo was decent. We saw people at other tables getting wine bottles, and saw wine coolers, but we were never shown a bottle list and no bottles were shown on the menu. We also were disappointed in the zatar fries. They were thick cut and soggy, without enough zatar to really taste. The dipping sauces served with them were really good though. Final disappointment was the view of the toilet through the open bathroom door we had from our table. They need a curtain or a wall of some sort installed to block that. Not what I want to see while I'm eating. Overall, this restaurant has good potential, and the people who run Barsha know what they're doing and should be able to make this better. We'll keep an eye open and aim sure we'll be back in a couple months after they have a little more time to work the kinks out. read more

You can tell when people care about their food and the staff here really invests in their product. I am absolutely amazed - if you are staying Hermosa it is worth the walk! Best food I have had at a restaurant in a long time read more

Amazing food, wine, beer and great staff!! Lucky to have this restaurant in the South Bay!!

The food was great and the service even better. Our host described our selections to make sure it matches our individual palates. Will definitely visit again. read more

Incredible service, incredible food. very clean restaurant amazing owner. We tried everything on the menu and it was all delicious. They also have a wine shop nearby that has a great selection. read more

A breath of fresh air to this little shopping center! We frequent this area approx 2-3 times a week for black belt practice and watched this place pop up. Unfortunately when we wanted to try it, they were closed which was on a Monday. And finally I convinced my husband to go after our daughter's class. It was on a Thursday at around 7:30pm. We were first asked right away if we had reservations, he was a little abrupt. We did not as this was a whim... but it didn't look too crowded so that was a little harsh at first. We sat down and we were greeted by a wonderful waitress who took the time to answer all of our questions as we told her it was our first time. This waitress made up for the hostess guy (who IMO needs to work on his people skills). I told the waitress my preferences and she suggested a delicious pasta dish that hit the spot. Overall it was a great experience and we will be back, abrupt hostess and all. Pappardelle- OMG. Rich, creamy and full of flavor. Roasted cauliflower - delicious and kid approved Scallops - The dish is on the smaller portion side (recommend another small plate if you are a big eater like my husband) Grilled cheese with vegetables on the side - our 10 year old ate it all! Kudos to our wonderful waitress (we forgot her name) and all of the restaurant staff that kept our water glasses full as we were thirsty and my daughter was parched from her black belt class. We will be back! read more

I had their mussels which is cooked in the most wonderful broth. The meatloaf was some of the best I've ever had. It came with truffle macaroni and cheese, and it was quite good. I love their salad dressing too. I highly recommend Barsha. read more

Our favorite local restaurant (Redondo Beach) by far! Even their take-out dinners are fabulous! Wonderful spices, exotic dishes, things we can't make ourselves at home make this the perfect place to go or get food to go when we want to gourmet meal! And ADNIN, who owns and runs the restaurant, is a true Star. A super guy who loves his restaurant and its customers. Can't wait to eat there again, or at least order more takeout! You MUST try it! read more

Great vibes, great service, great addition to the SB! Best falafel I've ever had and mussels were tender. The branzino was pretty small and a bit overcooked but the side couscous was tasty. Overall great experience and happy to welcome Barsha into the neighborhood! read more

Best new but tried (been to their MB location handful of times), top notch service in a welcoming yet cool atmosphere that is even kid friendly. The menu has bad *ss Tunisian flare and yet it is not intimidating at all. They've got live music but wasn't on when we popped in for a pre dinner drink. Plenty of parking. Can't wait to go back and try the entire menu read more

Amazing! We treated ourselves to this little neighborhood gem and it definitely hit all the marks! We decided to share with our besties, which allowed us to sample many of Barsha's dishes. The presentation started with a wonderful red wine, recommended by the owner/sommelier. The wine list is extensive! At the end of the night, we couldn't pick our favorite food, and were so satisfied we couldn't find room for dessert. Next time! The owner was very engaging and had a great sense of humor. Our server too! This experience made us forget that we were in a parking lot during Covid. Outstanding! read more

Eat here now. Food is top notch and I've eaten at almost all the raved-about places in South Bay. Decor, service is lovely. I will be a loyal customer read more

Amazing chicken pot pie. Super fast and convenient takeout service and the food was so delicious that we want to order again tomorrow night. This will surely become one of our go-to neighborhood spots! read more

Word of mouth said this place was a must-try, and I can see why! Owner Adnan has opened an upscale Tunisian eatery with all the fixings, including great ambiance, live music, authentic, gourmet food, and an excellent wine selection. The food was some of the best Mediterranean cuisine I've had in the South Bay, the service was top-notch, and the cocktail I had (Night in Tunisia) was also excellent. Barsha stands head and shoulders above the prior restaurants I've seen in that strip mall, and quite frankly, most of the fancy restaurants near the beach cities' piers. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. read more

A wonderful laid back place. Wine list is great, beer list is extensive also. Plus the food is spectacular. Would very highly recommend the mussels! read more

Yum. Chicken pot pie. Hope they keep the COVID take out specials going.

We took the risk of going out tonight and ended up by ourselves at this crazy good restaurant. The wine recommendations and food were fabulous. The pork belly dish was the best pork belly I have ever had. Perfect balance of crunch, meat and fat. One of the better meals I have had in awhile. We will be back when things settle down read more

Loved the food, the service, the wine, the decor ... overall great experience! Will be coming back soon !

Amazing transformation of this old dive bar! Tunisian menu and great beer and wine selection!

I fell in love with Barsha tasting room many years ago and was beyond excited that Adnen and Lenora have now opened a second location with a full food menu and of course their amazing wine list. I hosted a dinner for my work team this evening and felt compelled to leave a review. From the moment we walked in we were graciously met by the friendliest and most knowledgeable staff who simply wanted to make our evening amazing. The food is delicious. We tried the scallops, pappardelle, prawns, roasted cauliflower, hand of Fatima and the Moussaka. The only thing we left behind was completely empty plates. Barsha is great for a date night, dinner with a group of friends or a large group event. LOVE BARSHA 2.0!!! read more

Tried out the Sunday special fried chicken dinner for 2, along with a perfect bottle of wine, and loved it all! Highly recommend. Service and food were both exceptional, especially in these times of social distancing. We'll be back! read more

Went to Barsha's new restaurant on Aviation and Prospect. Wow! The food and service were excellent. Eating the braised Lamb checks with Polenta transported me to a trip I took to San Sebastian Spain where we ate beef cheeks. Amazing. And the Branzino with the crispy skin and rissoto was cooked to perfection. I spoke with the owner Adnon and he gave much credit to his mother who travels from Tunisia to help with the recipes. This place is a hit and can't wait to go again. read more

Super food with many vegetarian choices, which is what we like. Also great service all around, from management to servers. And great music with no cover charge on Fridays and Saturdays! What a find! read more

An absolutely fabulous evening of great food, great music (Brent George and Dan) and wonderful atmosphere. Everybody was having a blast.
