I visited Bar Baserri， was pleasantly surprised by how lively the atmosphere was. The restaurant was busy with people enjoying drinks, watching soccer, and catching up with friends. It had a very relaxed neighborhood vibe. Since it's not far from the waterfront, it's also a nice spot for an evening stroll after dinner. Here's what I tried: Hamachi Crudo Fresh and flavorful with a unique balance of citrus, spice, and acidity. The bright, tangy dressing really stood out and made this dish memorable. San Sebastian Prawns Probably my favorite dish of the night. The prawns were perfectly cooked with a slightly crispy exterior and a delicious smoky flavor. The sauce had a gentle kick that paired beautifully with the seafood. Bone Marrow Rich, buttery, and packed with flavor. The slightly sweet sauce complemented the roasted marrow well, and spreading it on the toasted bread made for a comforting bite. Sangria Recommended by our server, and it did not disappoint. Fruity, refreshing, and easy to drink without being overly sweet. Paella De Carne The beef was cooked medium and came out tender and juicy. The tomato rice was flavorful, and the melted cheese added a nice creamy richness to the dish. Tortilla Bravas A unique layered combination of egg and potato that almost melts in your mouth. The texture was fantastic, and the accompanying sauce brought everything together. Overall, a fun and cozy Spanish dining experience with flavorful dishes, great drinks, and a welcoming atmosphere. read more

Really enjoyed this place. It feels casual but the food is thoughtful and well done. The pan con tomate with Iberico ham is a must -- simple ingredients but so good. Easily my favorite dish of the meal. We also had the Spanish burger and the chorizo sandwich, both hearty and satisfying. Portions are generous and perfect for sharing. Great spot for brunch, tapas, or a relaxed meal with friends. Would come back. read more

Unfortunately the food is a miss and is overpriced. Surprised at all the "good" reviews here. Service is decent and ambiance is quite nice (it is a cute spot). More for vibes than food. read more

Honestly was pretty disappointing. The food is overpriced and the portions are tiny when they really don't need to be. For $22, they give you 3 small pieces of shrimp, which didn't taste fresh and were overcooked as well. Patatas bravas was also pretty mid, and if you're insane enough to splurge for the Iberico Jamon, for $50 USD you get a whopping 4 pieces. Straight robbery. I wish restaurants would have some self respect. If you're going to charge hefty prices, try and make it worth it for the customer. read more

My friend and I walked passed this place and decided to try it out. Turns out we went at a great time as they have happy hour from 5-7pm! The HH also included some food! This visit was also during Thanksgiving weekend when Williamsburg emptied out and we received very attentive service. The interior is classic European bistro with proper mood lighting (gently dimmed). The food was fresh, tasty, and paired well with their house wine. We ordered a couple of snacks from the HH menu so I cannot speak for the main menu tapas selection. read more

I'm so sad to give only 3 stars to this place but the food was so underwhelming. I came during happy hour and got the pan con tomate (probably the best bite out of everything we ordered), patatas bravas (decent), tortilla de patatas (bad and $8 for a small piece when you can make a whole tortilla at home for half of the price) and croquetas de bacalao (very dry, they definitely need more bechamel). Also this last ones are not in the HH menu. I would say the best deal is the wine. read more

Had a Friday evening reservation for two and live around the area. I enjoyed some dishes more than others and some dishes felt pricey for what you get, but overall I think this is a nice addition to the neighborhood. Ambiance / service: casual rustic Spanish vibes. I think all the seating is on high tops. Front wall retracts which is nice in the summer. Would be great for a date night, happy hour with friends, or just a casual dinner, especially if you live around the area. Service was friendly and didn't feel rushed, but it was a bit scattered. Server didn't inform us upfront several items were sold out until we tried to order them, couldn't give us an answer when we asked how many dishes she recommended we get, etc. Food: it's tapas, so some items are quite small in size. Would recommend ordering at least 2+ portions for some of them if dining with more than 2-3 people. I ordered 8-9 dishes (some were duplicates and some very small portions) for 2 people and it was the right amount of food. -Pan Con Tomate: got it with the jamon. Comes with 4 square slices. Best thing we got. Crunchy bread, super flavorful. We ended up ordering 2 servings! -Patatas Bravas: standard. But good if you're in a potato mood. -Croquetes: comes with 2. Enjoyed. -Burrata Con Squash Blossom: I do not recommend. Something was off about this dish and we only took a bit and couldn't finish it. In theory it sounded delish but the flavors were VERY off. -Pulpo Con Caper Chimichurri: I really enjoyed this. Octopus is cut up already. Portion is a bit bigger. -Scallops: comes with 4. This was good, but price seems high because the scallops were quite small. Enjoyed the octopus much more. -Quesos. We ordered two different variety of cheeses. The cheese was delicious, but this also didn't seem worth the price. $7 isn't very expensive, but it comes with two very small slivers of cheese and no bread or even a cracker. read more

Has the vibes of a cute tapas place in Spain, but with Williamsburg pricing of course. Good variety of tapas and vermouth/wine, the overall menu leans a bit more seafood heavy but has a good selection of most of the popular Spanish tapas (patatas bravas, croquettes etc). Food was okay but not the best. The patatas bravas have the sauce on the side and they are a little saltier than I am used too, and potatoes a bit less crispy. The pork was a little bit on the drier side, but the raisin glaze on top was pretty good. The two seafood dishes were probably my favorites. The shrimp was nicely made and tasted delicious and the calamari, while a little cool, was still nice and crispy and had great flavor. Service feels a bit rushed, particularly by the bussers, our server was great. We kept getting asked if we were done with dishes (we had a full prawn still on one of the plates). A little too eager to clear the plates. read more

All fire, the beef dishes were probably the worst low key-- still good but the seafood tapas were superior. All sauces were kinda salty but I'm also hella sensitive to salt in general. read more

Loved the small tapas and the unexpectedly good selection of Spanish wines. I must admit, I was never a fan of Spanish wines but this place really changed my mind, can't wait to try more varietals next time The service was amazing as well, very friendly and easy going, not too pushy but not absent as well. But the ambiance must be my favorite thing, I looove the interior design and the attention to details, you can tell they really care It's magical to experience what a well thought out space can do to you, I felt being transported in Spain Overall exceptional, can't wait to visit them soon with my friends read more

Bar Baserri is a true neighborhood gem. A warm, Basque-inspired pintxo bar with a wine list that clearly knows what it's doing. Thoughtful Spanish pours, proper vermut, and small plates that are simple, intentional, and craveable. The space feels intimate but lively--perfect for a casual glass or a long night at the bar. Unpretentious, soulful, and quietly excellent. Exactly the kind of place you want to keep coming back to. read more

Good service and a great selection of wines. The patata bravas were average though. Great spot when the weather is nice

Really yummy selection of tapas with delicious wine! I especially enjoyed the scallops & patatas bravas. My boyfriend and I were constantly checked on and they always made sure to refill our water which was a nice touch! The service is phenomenal and the servers are all super helpful, available, and approachable :). We were seated near the front so we got a lot of fresh air which was nice. I think all the seating options in the bar look ideal. Will be returning read more

The pan con tomate with jamón ibérico was outstanding--honestly as good as, if not better than what I've had in Spain. Perfect bread, spot-on tomato, and excellent jamón that wasn't fatty at all. The pulpo with caper chimichurri was cooked perfectly, beautifully balanced, and served with delicious little potatoes. The steak with mushrooms was tender and cooked to perfection, and the tortilla de patatas was unexpectedly comforting and delicious. We also had the bacalao croquettes and scallops, so good! My kid had the French toast. It was beautiful and amazing--thick, topped with cream and strawberries. He loved it! We had churros with salted caramel sauce for desert. They were incredible, served in a fun twisted, cinnamon-roll style. The space itself is stunning, with gorgeous tile work and thoughtful details that truly feel like a tapas bar in Spain. Everything was spotless, and the service was phenomenal--friendly, attentive, and polished. read more

bar baserri is so cute! good drinks, great bites & even better vibes! it really transports you to a in tapas spot in spain. perfect for a first date if you don't want to commit to a full dinner but want something a lil more than just drinks. if it's not going so hot, you could dip after grabbing a good cocktail or if it's going well, extend it into a full dinner - a win win if ya ask me! my faves were the freshly shaved ham, the steak, the croquetas, and the arroz - but if i had to choose, def recommend the arroz! it's paella-ish and packed with so much flavaaa! yommm read more

The experience in this restaurant was amazing. Staff was so nice, well educated about the food that they are serving. All the food was very rich, flavorful. I recommend scallops and seafood rice. Also, scallop was so soft inside but crispy outside. Liked the texture so much. I ordered another plate to take back home.. and even after a day, still fresh and rich flavor. The mood was on spot as well dimmed, soft music. Vibe for nice wine and dinner. read more

Great Spanish restaurant from one of the alums of Michelin-starred Casa Mono. If you want some jambon, a glass of wine, a small plate, sit at the bar and chill, or come with a date, this is the place for you. All the plates we tried were delicous. Service was tight, on par. Recommended highly, there's not a place quite like this in the neighborhood. read more

So so bad. Horrendous. Insanely expensive, and horribly managed. Avoid at all costs. This place will close soon.

Fabulous food and service. The tapas were top notch, rivaling nearly everything I've had in Spain. Perfect brunch spot, the ambiance captures the right vibe for spirited conversation, laughs and delicious eats. I will go back again....and again. read more

Absolutely loved Bar Baserri! The atmosphere is warm and lively, perfect for a casual night out or a cozy dinner. The staff were friendly and attentive without being overbearing.

Definitely a hidden gem worth coming back to. read more

Unfortunately our service at Bar Baserri was quite bad, and food and atmosphere could not make up for it. We were seated 45 minutes after our reservation (the team was nice about this and did apologize, but still a long wait for the table) and once we were seated, it took another 45 minutes to get a single drink. So we had to wait 1.5 hours after our reservation to have drinks. We had ordered pretty immediately after sitting down, and checked on our drinks with 3 different staff before our server finally came back and realized they forgot to put in the order. There was not a single apology for this taking so long, and frankly I felt that our server was pretty rude to us when we asked about this. Outside of things taking so long, there was no knowledge of the menu whatsoever, and the server was also visibly annoyed when we asked basic questions about the menu. The restaurant was fairly new so I understand there are going to be some kinks, but for the price of the food I would want our server to have some understanding of the menu and also for the team to want to makeup for a frankly awful wait time. The food was good but nothing special, atmosphere was nice, it just can't make up for the service. We did request to have a bottle of wine comped which they begrudgingly did, I would just expect a bit more hospitality in a restaurant that is upscale. I hope they figure it out and this was a one off experience, as outside of that it could be a good restaurant. read more

one of the best bar in Williamsburg, nice renovation, very good Spanish restaurant bar
