Great experience and excellent food: It’s almost like a speak easy for dinner. Text the owner what you would like from the menu, show up with cash, and have a great dinner outside. We had pizza, calamari and pasta and all of it was perfect. Highly recommend and hope to come back to town again in the future once the inside dining experience is ready to go

Had heard many wonderful things about the restaurant and the owner Mike. Our meals were fantastic and Mike is a wonderful and warm person. We would very highly recommend this restaurant. Mike is a fabulous chef. We will be back.

What a strange but delicious experience! When we passed the location earlier in the day, we didn't realize it was a restaurant. Signs on the door said Don't Knock and Do Not Enter. There are menus on the table outside when it's open, but we texted to ask about the menu since we were doing carry out. The owner/chef, Michael, responded quickly and directed us to the La Baracca Facebook page, with the menu items in the most recent post. We texted our order for the cheese tortellini and the hand rolled meatballs over fresh linguine and spumoni ice cream. It was ready quite quickly (20 min after ordering) and Michael brought it out---make sure to pay in cash. It was delicious! The tortellini especially was bursting with flavor, and you could see and taste the fresh herbs. The meatballs were hearty and the tomato sauce really let the tomatoes shine. The ice cream was a nice finisher but really the pasta was the star. It was a surprising amount of food, too! At first we thought it might not be enough but we were both full with a little leftover, which made for a nice midnight snack 😋 Definitely worth checking out!
