    10/10 but tiny. The space is definitely intimate (a bit cramped) but the energy is great. Wine: Solid selection. Whether you're going by the glass or the bottle, you can't go wrong. Crudo: Thick cuts, super fresh. 10/10. Burrata: Perfectly made. Creamy and high-quality. Bread with Pickles: This dish was the dark horse. Surprisingly delicious! Anchovy Salad: A flavor bomb. Must-order. Pasta: Executed to perfection. Service was good! If you don't mind the tight space, the food and wine will more than make up for it. Everything we ordered was a hit.

    Bar Seco? More like Bar So Good :) This place was such a vibe! The space is small but lively, making it the perfect spot to hang out, catch up, and snack on apps with drinks in hand. The energy really shines through, and I think a big part of my experience came from the staff- our waitress Alexis and her coworkers were attentive, friendly, and genuinely sweet, whch made the place feel welcoming! Food & Drinks highlights: *Bluefin tostada was by far my favorite!it was fresh, flavorful, and absolutely the star of the table *Spicy vodka strozzapreti had a slight crunch on the outside and was soft on the inside, with a legit kick. Honestly, this might be the first time the word "spicy" in a pasta dish truly lived up to its name but without going overboard *Cheese board was a fun experience! Guessing the cheeses and playing around with different pairings made it interactive and delicious. *Good Boy sparkling wine was super refreshing! It's essentially wine cooler vibes with hints of blackberry and lime Parking, like most spots in LA, is limited. They do have a metered spot out front but based on the time and day you're going, it might be difficult to find a spot. But overall, Bar Seco is a great spot if you're looking for good food, solid drinks, and a fun, intimate atmosphere. Definitely a place I'd come back to try more menu items!

    Small wine bar in silverlake. They let us try different wines to make sure we liked it before getting a glass. Their food menu looked really good as well, will definitely be back to try their food and apps!

    The worst dining experience I've had that I can remember. This place is so disorganized. People eating haphazardly on the sidewalk. The hostess with the short hair is incredibly rude, had an attitude, refused to give us an extra outdoor table so we had no room for our plates. The wine selection is trash. Just a gentrified Caucasian hipster hell. You're literally being shuffled from table to table randomly, carrying your own glasses and plates AND chairs. Not being given napkins or cutlery. It's so try-hard, it's embarrassing. Who eats on the street?? There are so many better places nearby. Don't believe any hype you hear about this place. It's complete trash with not one redeeming quality. And the food is so incredibly subpar.

    It's dimly lit with limited bar seatings. Real candles, lots of wine. Appetizers and food was below average. - Wines The wines were pretty pricey for a glass. The recommendations are nice. - Oysters 4.7/5 Tastes fresh and yummy. Got a bit of rocks but that's ok. - Burrata Cheese 5/5 This was so delicious. The cheese with the ikura was a perfect pair. [RECOMMEND] - Ham sliders? 1.6/5 Sad small pieces of ham on a thick piece of bread. AVOID. - Tuna tostada 3.7/5 Tasted yummy, basic tuna toasts with avocado. - Mushroom tostada 2.7/5 A bit too oily for me but tastes good. Parking was hard to find. Street parking, pay attention to the signs.

    Hamachi crudo

    The hamachi crudo is all I ever think about. It has yuzu, brown butter, and lime and is just so flavorful. I have also tried and enjoyed the blue fin tuna tostada. Just be mindful, parking is not always easy in this area and some of the items on the menu can be pricey.

    cute wine bar spot! i love the aesthetic. for weekend nights, i highly recommend having a reservation. this place gets packed, even the outdoor seating on the sidewalks were filled to the brim. i'm not a big wine person so i wanted to go to this place to be able to taste some & figure out if im a white or red wine girlie. i enjoyed the RAIZ & MONOCHROMO the most out of the white wines. for food, we ordered the charcuterie board, sourbread with lemon butter (for the carbs lol), & the bluefin tuna tostada. my personal favorite was the bluefin tuna tostada. on the pricier side, but not surprising for an aesthetic place in LA to be honest. service was great, the workers were attentive & super friendly with us, letting us sample different wines so we could decide which to get a full glass of. they were nice to even give us some extra sips! the biggest thing that would stop me from returning, which is in no fault of the establishment itself, is the parking situation. as you may know, parallel parking in silverlake on sunset is not for the weak hearted. i found it awkward & stressful to park right in front of seco - since they have so much sidewalk seating i was literally interrupting someone's dinner with my reverse lights all up by their table. i would recommend parking in the smaller streets a couple blocks down or across if possible to avoid the stress.

    Incredible ambience (deep warm lighting, beautiful florals and artwork) and lovely snacks/wine. We tried the spiced marcona almonds, jamon plate, and sourdough with lemon butter - all satisfying little bites to go with our drinks. I tried a Chardonnay from Slow Dance and true to the name, it was just a bright and crisp white, not too dry and not too sweet. Would recommend making a reservation as there's limited seating!

    A pretty small place that serves wines and pastries. A lot of information is missing from their website and because they're so small there was only one person working when we went. We tried to order a rose but they were out so we opted for some sparkling red wine which I've never had before. The wine isn't cheap but you'll find cool things like that that you've never seen before. Honestly the place smelled sterile in a not great way. The server was friendly but it took a while to be served. Overall, I feel like they could use some work but has a lot of promise!

    Food: 9/10 Service: 9/10 Ambiance 9/10 GET A RESERVATION for this place. Super cute. They just opened but they are PACKED, especially because they are small. But I had a great time here with my friends. Loved the vibes and the bartender was so kind and catering! They are really busy so be aware!

    Interior View -- such a cute spot!

    I could not love Barr Seco more! From the food, to the amazing service, and the chill vibe, I've got a new favorite spot! Only complaint is they were out of a few of the listed dishes (my table was at 5:30p), but everything that I did have was pretty amazing! This is a Japanese and Mexico City inspired small plates and wine bar from the people that brought you Santo (Sushi directly next door). Below is what was tried: Blue Fin Tuna Tostada - 5+ Stars. Favorite dish of the night. The tuna was fresh and rich in flavor and reminded me of a dish I get when in Mexico City. Hamachi Crudo - 5+ Stars. Absolute heaven! The hamachi is served in this brown butter and citrus sauce which is best absorbed with the tasty Bub & Grandma's bread they serve here. Endive Caesar Salad - 4 1/2 Stars. Rich in flavor, so fresh, and very tasty. Spicy Vodka Strozzapreti - 4 Stars. Interesting interpretation of a spicy vodka pasta, this definitely delivered the heat! Wine Selection - 5 Stars. So many different options, and all so tasty! I can't wait to go back. The sidewalk turns into a block party at night, and have even driven by and seen people tailgating in a parking spot in front (kind of odd, but ok)

    Pinot noir, always

    Best neighborhood spot. Everyone who works here is gorgeous and kind. The wine is phenomenal. The vibes 1000/10. Weekends feel like Europe. Everyone is lovely BUT Mauro is the best and has exceptional hospitality skills, charm, and is a huge reason my friends and I come here. He's knowledgeable and provides excellent service and ambiance, and attention to detail that doesn't go unnoticed. It wouldn't be the same without him

    Vodka pasta

    Intimate and vibey wine bar , very busy and loud on a weeknight and must make a resy! the space is so cute, with the dim lighting, wine display and warm colors. Cute spot for girls night (but max 4 people). My friend and I each got a sparkling wine , shared the vodka pasta, hamachi crudo and tuna tostada. The food was good but on the pricier end!

    I cannot say enough great things about Butchr Bar. I discovered them some time ago and since then…read morethey have become my go-to place for steak and high-quality meats. I actually place an order with them every month because the quality is consistently exceptional. The meats are truly the best of the best. Every cut I have purchased has been incredibly fresh, beautifully prepared, and absolutely delicious. You can immediately tell the difference in quality compared to most places. When you cook their steaks at home, the flavor is outstanding and the texture is perfect. It honestly feels like restaurant-quality meat every time. Beyond the quality of the products, the people who work there are wonderful. Everyone is incredibly friendly, helpful, and welcoming. They take the time to answer questions and clearly care about the products they offer. That kind of service is rare and makes the experience even better. What I love most is that I can rely on them month after month for consistently amazing meat. It has completely changed how I shop for steaks and specialty cuts. I'm genuinely so grateful to have found this place. If you care about quality, flavor, and great service, I highly recommend Butchr Bar. In my opinion, it's by far one of the best places to buy meat and of course dine in. I will definitely continue ordering from them regularly and coming in for some wine and good quality food. Definitely recommending them to friends and family! Also the ambiance is perfection. Thank you Butchr Bar!

I wish we had a different spot to enjoy dinner. Food was okay. $10-$12 for devil eggs ... but it's one egg split in two? Seems silly. The skewers were probably the highlight. Prawns seemed undercooked. Steak was chewy. Fries are not pictured but nothing special. 20% is included in the tab already, so make sure you check the total before paying. Overall, ambiance was on par. It was the one thing this place had for itself but it wasn't enough.

The 2 pizzas had great flavor overall, but the pizza itself was way too sour (sourdough crust). The sour taste was overpowering the rest of the pizza which was unfortunate.

Our waiter was kind enough to let us sample the three whites they had rotating that night so we could pick what we wanted. I ended up going with a nice Georgian white. And now for the food! Cucumber and pomegranate salad (5/5) - it was fresh, crisp, and very well flavored with the fresh herbs. Ghormeh sabzi with rice (3.5/5) - flavor wise it was delicious, it reminded me of my grandma's ghormeh sabzi. Kidney beans were a bit undercooked. Rice was fluffy and well cooked. Tahchin with chicken (3.5/5) - flavor was good, I think it could have used a bit more seasoning and the rice was more "custardy" than I am used to. Blood orange tart (3/5) - the tart itself was yummy but the blood oranges were quite bitter. Our meal was quite expensive which I completely understand given the quality of the ingredients they use and the fact that they are small business. With that being said, I'd probably only come back here for wine and small bites, not a full meal. But I think Voodoo Vin is worth trying at least once.
