We went in specifically for the Christmas decorations and the view. Our waiter was great; however, one of the other older female staff members asked us to move to a different table so she could clean the one we moved to. I didn’t mind moving at all, but the way she spoke to us was extremely rude and unprofessional her tone felt dismissive and completely unnecessary.

Update: This time Bar Verde did a great job. The server Derek was phenomenal! The food delicious! The ambiance was nice!
I had wild shrimp tagliatelle. It had saffron butter and Spanish chorizo! Amazing! Fresh shrimp! Homemade fresh noodles. Great dish! Also had crème brûlée which was top notch!
The view is awesome and great for people watching.
Old review: You can get a great view of the main Grove courtyard if you’re lucky. It was holiday time so we could see the Xmas tree quite well.
Service is not very good.
I ordered the campanelle pasta. Pretty well served but it doesn’t have a creamy or marinara sauce so I regretted not paying attention to the menu. It has a good amount of chicken. The pasta was not al dente. Sigh. It was decent. We also had the artichoke dip which was tangy but not that good. It comes with bread wedges. Some of the dip was left over because you don’t get enough bread wedges.
Honestly I was not impressed by the menu options.
I’m had unsweetened ice tea which was good but the refills were ponderously slow.

It was LOVELY! Lovely setting, lovely menu--food felt very high quality and had a very nice presentation. We LOVED the sparkling rose--will definitely be back!

Service was horrific. When the “manager” Karina came out I swear I’m wondering if she has a third grade education, because she couldn’t maintain eye contact and seemed like she wasn’t even sure where she was. This place used to be nice, but the service has really gone down hill. The food was wine but Karina is awful and could’ve cared less about my concerns.

Bar Verde is such a great spot. The food is always fresh and full of flavor, and the cocktails are some of the best around—creative without being over the top. The vibe is chill but still feels special, and the staff is always super friendly and welcoming. Definitely a place I keep coming back to. The Cilantro Lime Chicken Salad and the French Dip always hit the spot if unsure and the Nordstrom Burger is definitely worthy of praise. The Artichoke Spinach Dip is a great starter

Love eating here and it has such a lovely upper patio view of The Grove - super sweet spot for eating outside, never too hot! Only need to remember to get your parking ticket validated! Every server should help remind us to do so - thank you Bar Verde - I'll be back!!

We had such a wonderful experience at Bar Verde! It was our first time dining here, and we were so impressed -especially thanks to our server, Derek. He was incredibly kind, attentive, and made us feel genuinely welcomed from the moment we sat down. His service was thoughtful and seamless, and he really elevated the whole experience. Can’t wait to come back again!
Horrible experience at a poorly managed, overhyped restaurant. We were invited by the manager at the Bar Verde at Nordstrom at the Grove to visit the restaurant. When we arrive, she is rude, unprofessional, and incompetent. We review the menu, which is bland and overpriced, and then try the signature cocktails at an empty bar, and the drinks are way too expensive for the tasteless mish-mash of off-the-cuff ingredients. The entire interaction with her was regrettable and a waste of time. We wish we had went with one if the many better restaurants at The Grove and avoided the rude incompetence at Bar Verde. Wouldn't return even if it was free.

Came by and sat inside to avoid the heat (100°F). We ordered the artichoke dip, turkey & avocado sandwich, and shrimp salad. The dip was too salty. The entrées were tasty. Our server, Sam, was attentive.

Bar Verde at The Grove is truly a hidden gem tucked inside Nordstrom. Though we usually swing by for happy hour drinks, because it’s my Nephew’s favorite spot, we decided to try dinner this time—and I'm so glad we did. The vibe is relaxed yet stylish, the perfect spot to unwind. Our server, Jay (I think that was his name), was fantastic. He was attentive, and his timing was spot-on. He chatted just enough to keep the mood light, but never overdid it—just the right balance to complement the evening.
We kicked off with the artichoke spinach dip, which, frankly, blew us away. It’s so much better than Houston’s Chicago-style spinach dip, and it even comes with warm, fresh bread that elevates the dish. For the main course, I went with the chef's special ribeye, paired with a salad and potatoes. The steak was massive, cooked to a perfect medium-rare, and absolutely delicious. The Caesar salad was fresh and made to order. Normally, I’m not big on Caesar salads, but this one was a pleasant surprise.
If you're looking for a low-key spot with fantastic food, Bar Verde is the place to be. Great service, delicious dishes, and a chill atmosphere make this restaurant a must-visit!

Got dinner and drinks with a friend here on a Saturday night before a movie. We had alot of questions about recommendations for the waiter and he was super helpful and accommodating for us! The food was all soooo good! I got the salmon dish and it was honestly one of the better dishes I’ve had in a long time, the sauce was so flavorful and the crabcake on top was absolutely delicious. We also got calamari as an app, which was also great. My friend got the birria grilled cheese and it was as good as it sounds on the menu!
Drinks were also really good! Of course a little expensive because you’re at the grove so like $18-$20 a drink, but they were very good!
I will be making my fiance take me here for date night very soon!!
