Cool place; I wish there were more like it (besides the other locations). The food is really good and and I like the atmosphere - big fireplace in the dining area. They brew all their beer in-house so you are drinking something that you can't find elsewhere.

Barthelona, you are just too cool for me. I revert to acting like a shellshocked Kristen Wiig from the Lawrence Welk show whenever I arrive. Too much pressure and I start to foam at the mouth a bit. My friends love Barcelona. I'm convinced it is because of the awesome service. They roll into valet wearing sexy stares while I'm like "Huh, they have valet?..." After a few drinks and embarrassing activity.... "IS THAT BAD?" Truly not joking. Forever and without fail, Barcelona has solely become "Girls Night Out" at the bar, for me. While I would love to come here for dinner, I typically sit at the bar. Sunday nights are 1/2 off bottles of wine, not too terribly crowded, and is a great time to mingle... if you're a mingling type. The crowd is a bit "eh". A mixture of snobbery cougs and men that don't nearly stack up to the Suits at Ormsby's. Thus why I go with my boo-crew. All of the bartenders are sharply dressed in pressed white shirts and black pants, mimicking their striking white bar, which unsurprisingly turns into a catwalk for little dudes pouring drinks into your mouth. Think...Chris Kattan shaking his junk in your face. Getting it. Suddenly, it's Club Barthelona. Anything goes, including dubsteb. I'm being serious. I'm sure I looked real attractive having a bulb shined into my face "saying ahhhh" for god knows what tinkling angel nectar is being bobsledded down my throat. Then, "said" little dude turns around, and struts his cute butt on over to other unassuming ladies (and possibly gents). I recommend standing in a dark corner if you don't want it. Though the 'tenders are very helpful, the wine menu is a little over my head, because in my opinion I may as well be pinning the cork on the bottle. I'm just not savvy like that. When in doubt, they have an equally great beer list.
Giacomo's Ristorante - Boston
📍 Address: 355 Hanover St, Boston

the long reigning favorite restaurant of mine in beantown. go early or late to attempt to avoid standing in line for hours. be ready to order quick and eat pretty efficiently as the place is tiny and they do try to turn tables so everyone gets a chance. the tables are packed together so try to have a friendly attitude towards your neighbors. and bring cash bc that is all they take. if you can get down with all the above, you are going to love giacomos!! my go to order is ceasar salad, fried calamari, burratta (if on special), and chicken parm. plus wine of course. enjoy!!
Cibo e Beve
📍 Address: 4969 Roswell Rd, Ste 245, Atlanta

We happened to be in Sandy Springs Friday night and decided to find an Italian restaurant to grab dinner. We chose Cibo based on the reviews we read on line and were very excited to try it. Overall the service was sub par, the waiter didn't ask if we had been there before and once I said we were first time vistior's, he didn't offer to walk through the menu at all. We base a good italian restaurant from the bolognese and after order the bolognese and their speciality "lobster pasta", I think that's what it's called, it was truly disappointing. The bolognese sauce tasted like it was from a jar, very tomatoey and lack of flavor. The lobster pasta had no flavor and the lobster was over cooked and chewy. Overall, I'd think twice about spending $20+ dollars for a pasta dish!
Pal Campo Restaurant

One of the best Puertorrican food in Orlando. Service was great and good price. Live panderos music on Friday nights. The decoration is very Old San Juan.
