We enjoyed our dinner @ Barbes during a short vacation in New-York. The food and cocktails (Mango breeze) were great and not overpriced. The service was excellent. We felt welcomed even tough it was late and came with a child. Nice decor, music and atmosphere also. Only glitch: the tip was automatically added in the bill. I think that tipping should be up to the client!

Great food, great service and a more than pleasant atmosphere. I loved this place and will definately be returning. The lentil salad is a must, and the tagine's were terrific. Check out the cocktails also, some clever twists on originals. We arrived quite late in the evening and the restaurant wasnt full, but the atmosphere was still up there and the service was friendly and inviting. Well worth a visit.

Barbe has an interesting flavorful menu. The decor is cozy with a stylish Morrocan flair. Our entrees of tagine and couscous were both excellent. The lentil salad is very good with some interesting zing! Enjoyed the Moroccan cocktails and mint tea. It is great to have a moderately priced, hip lively restaurant in Murray Hill. Barbe caters to a sophisticated, established young-middle aged professional. Now I don't have to travel downtown for this type of atmosphere and food quality. Have been to Barbe twice. Will be back.

We stumbled upon it on our way to another restaurant and were so taken by the inviting atmosphere that we switched our plans. Wonderful uncommon food, great prices and wine list, charming waitresses. Go when it's not crowded and pray it stays undiscovered.
