My wife and I came here for lunch. We were warmly greeted and decided to sit at the tasting counter. My wife's chicken selection was excellent, very tender slices of chicken served over sticky rice. My selection of the mushroom preparation was just a tad overcooked. Although we did not have dessert, from the descriptions they all sounded very innovative and the tasty. We will certainly enjoy returning to the restaurant.

We celebrated New Year's Eve with a last minute dinner reservation at Barbacana, we reserved for 9 pm hoping to catch the fireworks downtown after dinner. We were surprised to learn that the reservation I made for our party of four was for the New Year's Eve party and not for dinning. The host could not have been more gracious in welcoming us for dinner and seating us at the kitchen window where we were front row to all the delicious meals being prepared. Despite the late hour and the fact that we were running up to their NYE party, we were not rushed and each of our meals was spectacular. The grace and hospitality together with the magnificent food won us over. We can't wait to come back and try all the other menu items. Well done Barbacana!!

My husband and I were visiting Houston over Thanksgiving weekend and looking for a place to eat that were in close proximity to a show that we were attending. Barbacana fit the bill, and we hit the jackpot! The wine list was impressive, the food was amazing and the service was impeccable! I highly recommend Barbacana for an amazing dining experience.

Our dinner at Barbacana was absolutely divine! It was my first time, and it won't be my last. The wine selection was incredible, menu inventive and every bite delicious, the dessert was sensational, and the service was warm and welcoming. I can't wait to return and try more!

Amazing spot. The food was fresh, full of flavor, and came out fast. The staff was friendly and actually paid attention, which made the whole experience even better. The place has a warm vibe, and everything tasted like real care went into it. Easily one of my new go to restaurants. Highly recommend.

Wow! One of the most delicious meals I've had in my life and I live and eat in SF. My friend and I had the tasting menu but the plot twist is that I'm vegan and he's an omnivore. We were served vegan dishes to share and they even made him lobster toast and beef with a mushroom sauce. The tomato toast was sublime and the mushroom donburri was bursting in flavor. But the best was that the pastry chef whipped up a special vegan dessert for me with agar pearls and sorbet. Service was spectacular. Overall 12/10 experience.

Barbacana in Houston was such a great find! The s’mores board was incredible perfectly shareable and so fun, and the flautas were some of the best I’ve ever had. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Can’t wait to go back!
