Bari Italian - Cedar Rapids

Absolutely delicious. Very nice upscale restaurant in Cedar Rapids.

My husband and I came in for dinner and were seated right away. Our waiter Tony was absolutely amazing and so attentive! The food was fantastic as well, I got the chicken parmesan and it was delicious. My favorite part though, was the orange raspberry cheesecake!

Husband had lasagne and loved it. I had an arugula and grilled chicken salad and it was good but a bit small for a dinner salad. Staff was very friendly. We did enjoy it.

A real restaurant, fine dining experience. No 20 tv screens with mindless sports. The food is excellent, taste and presentation. The wait staff was most friendly and professional. one of the best restaurants in the area.

Went here for a celebration dinner. The seating by the windows was lovely. The server was very helpful answering questions and didn’t rush us. All the appetizers, meat/fish entree’s, and desserts we tried tasted delicious. A bit pricey, but we knew this from looking at their menu online beforehand.Dishes we tried: calamari, caprese bruschetta, focaccia, seafood bake, salmon, and the surf and turf.The appetizers were all tasty and good to share between 4 people. Really loved the crispness of the calamari with the dipping sauce, the caprese bruschetta was my favorite and a plus for it being vegetarian. I liked the spread that came with the focaccia, but the bread itself was a bit bland for me.The seafood bake was light and creamy and served hot out the oven with the right amount of seafood-pasta mix for me. Tasted even better with added parmesan. The pilaf and veggies complemented the salmon well.The desserts we tried were all a decent size for sharing and they all tasted delightful. The salted caramel crème brûlée was so light and creamy, and had enough sweetness with a touch of salt to my liking. Both the blueberry NY style cheesecake and the lemon-raspberry NY style cheesecake tasted so good, not super sweet and the cheese part was just right. I personally preferred the lemon-raspberry topping over the blueberry because of the tangier taste, but they both were great choices.I would recommend adding the dessert menu online for people to see the different options ahead of time. Overall, a great dining experience that I would recommend.
