Barraco's Bakery & Cafe

"One of our favorite places to eat! The best Philly Cheese Steak sandwiches and last night my husband picked up their Valentines Day special… oh my heart… the lobster and Steak were perfect! And that chocolate espresso cake… literally heaven. If you’re in the area or just passing though… stop here!! You won’t regret it! Stephanie and the gang will make sure you have the best food around!!"

"My dog and I love going this cafe sitting at nice patio. They always come to greet my dog when they are not too busy. This is the best coffee shop and restaurant in town!"

"Been coming to this area for years and we are always looking for new places to eat but there aren’t many to choose from. We had the shrimp and salmon dinners. Excellent food and service. And they are reasonable compared to another “famous” steak/ seafood joint in Darien. Highly recommended!"

"Rick Starling, I too ate here this same evening.Everyone is entitled to their opinion. However, this evening was very unusual for this establishment. I’m not sure if you were aware at the time, but their entire computer system was down and they were understaffed due to uncontrolled circumstances, on an extremely busy evening. The one server they did have this evening was running her tail off and doing the best she could to serve the customers as best she could. As far as the food goes, this place has AMAZING food! Maybe you didn’t get the best steak, but it happens from time to time. I’m sure the folks there offered to make it right and replace it or comp your meal somehow, yet you just decided not to mention any of that in your rant while smashing a great local establishment that depends on reviews. Actually looking at your Google reviews for other businesses, it appears that literally NO BUSINESS, could please you. Every single review you have posted with the exception of ONE, you’ve given a 1 star rating. It would appear sir that you are simply one of those miserable A&!Holes that is only content if they are bashing others and nobody will ever possibly be able to live up to your standards sir. PATHETIC! Do ALL of us a favor and stay home."

"My wife and I tried this restaurant for the first time tonight. We ordered filet mignon , baked potato, and house salad. It took an hour before the filets and potatoes were brought to the table. One was ordered medium rare and the other medium. Both came out rare and very fatty. The baked potato was not done and the salad came after the entrée. Brought the filets home to the dog and was estactic to leave the establishment. Service was slow or nonexistent. Prices were reasonable but that is the only thing I can say positive about the restaurant."
