BARCA is Old Town Alexandria's newest riverfront neighborhood restaurant. Located in Robinson , BARCA (Spanish for boat) styles shipyard chic and Catalonian coastal influence into a waterfront Pier and Wine Bar. Both indoor and outdoor locales serve up Spanish-Mediterranean small plates, wine, sangria, and cocktails plus weekend brunch.
“Paid parking is avaliable, but not super convenient to the location. The outdoor seating on the dock was very nice with beautiful scenery of the water. The dishes are tasting sizes...more like small appetizers. They are very delicious, though. Lots of flavor! You just have to order lots of items for a group. I wish gluten-free was labeled on the menu and that there were more options. They have several cocktails you can purchase by the pitcher, but the pitcher is pretty small.”
“The food was absolutely amazing. I loved trying out many dishes at once and they were great. Carlos Bolivar was very attentive, he made sure that our meals and drinks were made well. I personally did not like one of the drinks but he was kind enough to make me feel comfortable it remade. I will say that the atmosphere was busy and chaotic. I do wish it was calmer. The view to the water is nice especially at sunset. I definitely will be back fo the food!”
“Celebrated my birthday today at Barca. Our server was Beatrice, she was so sweet and a great server she even sang me a happy birthday with a complimentary cake 🥹Everyone was nice, the place was so relaxing and we got our reserved table just right by the water. Tapas was all delicious! Will definitely be back ☺️”
“We were visiting from out of town and celebrating a birthday. My wife chose BRRCA. Our first time eating Tapas. The first thing I noticed was how knowledgeable and helpful Hi was and was shocked to learn it was only her 2nd week. She helped us navigate through the menu and make some new to us choices. Service was quick and the food was fantastic.”
“We thoroughly enjoyed our lunch while out boating on the Potomac. We were able to reserve a table for 8 and they were nice enough to provide separate checks for all of us. The food was delicious and fun to share. The pitchers of yummy cocktails were wonderful too. I will definitely be boating up there again!”
