Rara's Corner in Barnet - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Elegant interior, quiet, great food and attentive service. Highly recommend

Rara's is a hidden gem! The atmosphere is cozy and inviting, making it the perfect spot for a meal. The food? Absolutely delicious, and surprisingly affordable too. But what really stood out was the friendly and attentive service. It's clear the staff genuinely care about making your experience memorable. Rara's is definitely worth a visit

Very authentic, delicious and special service

I went for an early dinner with work colleagues and was genuinely surprised by this restaurant. The cocktails were freshly made and delicious (no pre mixes involved). The food was absolutely delicious - we went for tapas and every dish that graced our table was lovely. The owner/waiter/manager (sorry, not sure of his exact role!) was really friendly and helpful. Plus the decor was nice. We also all thought it was very reasonably priced. TBH I can't wait to go back!

Best place to eat in Edgware and beyond without a doubt. Good food. Wine.We Arrived on opening time one Saturday. So nice . Lovely feel inside. Was greeted by our host. Very friendly welcome. Not our first time here so knew our way around the menu. There are some deals in the week. Great treat for the Wife and I.

Fantastic restaurant. Great service & Loved the food Fab wine too. 5 STARS

A real gem of a place. Great hospitality and food. Their cocktails are exceptional!!!

The best service and the best food!We really enjoyed it ❤️

We went for our friend's live gig which was amazing… sadly the food was awful. My calamari tapas was 2 tiny pieces of rubber.. my second tapas turned up 30mins later. My friends potatoes bravas were just covered in mayonnaise & ketchup 😖 The Chicken Milanese & chips weren’t fresh but pre bought & reheated & my friend’s paella was disappointing… such a shame as review’s don’t live up to our meal 😔😔😔

The owner of the restaurant is incredible. Very informative and welcoming. The spice on the portobello mushroom was perfect. Thank you!

Celebrating Anniversary with my boyfriend here. Amazing foods and atmosphere! Must come back again👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Crazy high quality food, the owner really cares about authentic food done to high standards. A gem in Edgware.

Delicious tapas, especially the Chorizo in red wine. The churros for dessert was also particularly nice. Shame it wasn't very busy ... More customers needed to taste this gem in Edgware.

Second time back for the high quality food. Steamed mussels and king prawn linguine pasta are fantastic, will definitely be back again.

Excellent restaurant, this is now our local go to restaurant. The food, ambience and service is first class. The vegetarian and vegan options are very good. Pizza, tortellini and veggie paella are our personal favourites.

Went to Rara’s Corner last night for my sons birthday. Had an amazing evening. Food was lovely and Toni did everything he could to please. They also had an Elvis tribute which was great fun and the atmosphere was fantastic.

Food was so delicious we had three tapas style starter I had the pizza for the main my wife had lamb chops and salad and rice. To be fair it's first time we have been and the service and food we're excellent we will be going back again with the rest and the family great place 😀

Lovely atmosphere, good food, friendly and helpful wait front of house.

As someone who leaves honest and gleeful reviews because I know they help people’s decision and people’s businesses, this was imperative because of your dishonest reply about this meal. I was truly expecting to be wowed because of the great reviews. I don’t know if it was the chef on duty or if everyone was tired and didn’t care about the customers but the experience was nothing to write home about. Atmosphere The interior is picturesque and has great lighting but when we got in, there were still used plates on a table or two. The table beside us was sprayed with cleaning agent and was just left there it began to sting my eyes. Had to remind our host to please wipe off what he sprayed on it. Food The starter was just ok. The skewers weren’t well seasoned and I made mention of it. The linguine pasta was cold and so oily. There were no sauces or dips at all and when i asked for chilli I was served mild sriracha sauce swimming in oil 🤢 The food was so greasy I used up our serviettes wiping oil off my mouth. My husband asked for tomato sauce and was served ketchup 😂 Had to force our way through it because we were very hungry. I told the host I didn’t enjoy it. We wanted to order desserts and asked for the menu infact but the main was so bad, we called it a wrap there. Other The menu is very limited. We noticed at least two customers walk in, scan the menu and walk out. An older couple who came in sat for almost 10 minutes before they were attended to. I was almost going to take their order because they just sat there. They left without dining. I was soooo hopeful this was going to be a usual for us but I couldn’t help feeling it was a waste of £65.

The food was just OK. I was expecting a bit more quality than was on offer. The menu also wasn't as comprehensive as I would have wanted

New fantastic tapas menu. Really tasty and lots of choice. Really good pricing too. Service with a smile from Diego and Tony as always.

Incredible food. The tapas is good value especially on a Thursday with 4 for 3 deal. Will be back soon!

Went early so it was quiet but the service and food was really good. The padron peppers are a must!

We had a lovely lunch here for my birthday yesterday, our waitress was lovely and so attentive, and all the food was amazing and really tasty, the decor was also really nice and welcoming, we will definitely be back here as often as we can manage, the only thing I could mention is that maybe the BBQ ribs had a bit of an overpowering sauce and a bit spicy, I think a bit less sauce would be nicer as the meat itself was so tasty and tender, overall it was all so good and we didn't need dinner as we were all so stuffed from the lovely food.

Great authentic spanish food. This will be my regular from now on. Pizza was lovely too

Lovely people and good food. Happy to recommend

Lovely food. Very attentive and spent time explaining the menu and what to order ensuring we didn't order too much. Overall would highly recommend

Very lovely food, very good service. All in all a lovely night and a perfect environment!

Fabulous meal. Great service. Highly recommend

Best restaurant, staff is very friendly and tge food excellent!

It was amazing, likely usually. Definitely would recommend

We visited Tara's Corner with relatives who live locally. We just needed somewhere to chill and catch-up drinks and lunch/dinner. The staff were really welcoming and took time to ensure that everything we ordered was just right. The food quality was commendable and we also enjoyed the cocktails. We got there early afternoon and the restaurant was not full. We were given a nice table location and stayed there until it was dark. At no time were we made to feel unwelcommed and we're encouraged to stay as long as we wanted to. We will certainly be heading to Sara's Corner the next time we visit the area and would recommend it highly.

Fantastic food, very authentic tapas along with outstanding service.

Food tasty and hot. Service friendly and efficient

Amazing food Recommend the papatatas bravas and the squid. For all the cheese lovers I recommend the baked cheese . Amazing! Staff is super friendly. Had the best date night.

Amazing seafood and wine ..we love the place

Another fantastic meal at Rara’s. Tasty tapas and a lovely atmosphere at very good prices! Thank you to Tony and Diego for looking after us and going the extra mile to cater for our kids and make them garlic bread especially for them the way they like it.

brilliant food. don’t hesitate to come here.

Great customer service from front of house👍🏾

First time here for an early Valentine’s meal. Lovely chilled atmosphere, such friendly service and delicious food! We tried a few things from the tapas menu and nothing disappointed us.

First time visiting and everything was amazing loved the food and loved the service would definitely recommend

Toni, our waiter for the evening was incredibly friendly. Food came fairly quickly and was very nice. Would definitely come again especially for the very reasonable prices.

We visited on the back of a lovely review l saw on The Restaurant Club Facebook group. Wow, we were all super impressed. The padron peppers, chorizo and ham croquettes were the best we’ve ever had (no exaggeration), the ribs, lamb chops and burger trio were amazing. We’d highly recommend. Fantastic food, lovely service, relaxing atmosphere, easy to find and plenty of parking. We’ll certainly be going again (and again!)

Lovely find, friendly water, great food

The food was fantastic and service was also amazing!! Would definitely recommend!!

Great food and the best service! :)

Excellent service and atmosphere. As Spanish that I am the Octopus is great!!! We have a lovely dinner trying different tapas all great!!! I will be back for the paella.

A really nice place with great ambient music. The food… more than 5 stars . Steak is the best you can have around Edgware. Best place to eat in Edgware by far!!

Amazing food, lovely service! Really cannot understand why this restaurant isn’t busier! Come on, local people - take advantage of this gem on your doorstep!

Fantastic food and great service, what a find!

First time here, fantastic food already looking forward to going back.

Beautiful little restaurant with amazing food, service and drinks. Violeta was an excellent server and will be seeing me again very soon!

Really tasty meal and great service

amazing food, amazing service. Highly recommend 🤍🤍 couldn’t recommend more. My new favourite spot!!

Unbelievable experience. This place definitely deserves more credit. If you have not yet tried, I highly recommend. The food and wine was 11/10. What a hidden gem!!!

Four of us went here for dinner after hearing their would be an operatic singer we arrived and heard Yuri Sabatini (The Italian Tenor) singing fabulously all evening while we dined on Highly recommended Artichoke soup, King prawn salad, Roasted Sea Bass, Tomato pene, and wonderful Banana cake ice cream. This restaurant is hosted by the charming husband and wife team of Toni and Veineta whithin this contemporary walmly designed and comfortable space as a jewel in the heart of Edgware that is well worth a visit and as our Friends said "We would definitely come again as the food is West end quality"

Enjoyed a lovely evening at Rara’s on Wednesday night with our friends. The food was absolutely delicious and there was a fantastic singer for entertainment. Will definitely return there for the wonderful food and service.

We went to see an opera singer tonight and it was a wonderful experience. The singer was Yuri Sabatini and he is superb. Arias, modern musical numbers all performed wonderfully. Will be going back very soon.

Thank you to Aldo for the amazing service!

Brilliant food and kind waiters. We love it here and it’s great for meals with family and friends.

Lovely food and great service !!

Been here 4 times already, and everytime ive been amazed. Exceptional service from Toni and his team and Phenomenal food. Highly Recommended

Wow, what a gem ! I really liked the Lamb Chops and got to try the ragu lasagna. Great hospitality as waitress was very attentive. Will be back!

Excellent meal out with friends, The only problem was that were no other customers in the restaurant apart from us for most of the meal, so the atmosphere was somewhat lacking. A shame because the food was lovely!

Food, service and decor was first class but restaurant was empty. So many people are missing out on this little gem. The prices are really good value too. If you are in the area its a must.

Where to start. Friendly, cheerful, warm ambience, stylish decor, lovely mouthwatering menu, awesome coffee and the biscuit wow to die for. Staff really friendly, professional and courteous and so much help. I wanted to give this review after being rescued from my back hurting outside and kindly offered seat to help by generously hearted customer and staff. It is a place I will totally recommend to friends and anyone asking where to have a fun happy and affordable time. Other customers seen were smiles, bigger smiles when food arrived and even bigger smiles and happy atmosphere. A real Gem of a place. I wish all the very very best for the management, staff and customers.

Best food and drinks, lovely waiter! thank you Arthur! :)

Had a lovely dinner at Rara’s. Service was attentive and friendly , cocktails were delicious, seafood was fresh and the steak my friend ordered was a huge portion! We would definitely return.

Great food and the live music night was a delight Hope to come again

Food OK , the prawns in the ",cocktail" were greyish and chewy (I'd rather have overcooked) and tiramisu not available because too many people had pre-ordered. Noisy. Staff efficient. Was full so obviously popular.

Great food and brilliant service. Would recommend

Comimos allí yo y mi pareja y estuvo todo buenissimo. Pedimos un plato vegetarian y el grill halloumi, nos sorprendió de lo riquissimo que estaba y lo abundante que ponen los platos. No teniamos hueco ni para el postre… Personal tambien muy agradable y servicial Sin duda repetiremos. Dejo foto de los platos que pedimos y nos sirvieron.

Meal was superb from cocktails to dessert. Delicious and perfectly cooked. Garlic bread, Sea bass and steak all spot on. Sticky banana pud is amazing.

Incredible. The waiters were very prompt and the food was wonderful, cooked perfectly. Would definitely recommend and will definitely return.

Love staff, calm atmosphere and food was amazing perfect portion though I struggle to finish it lol. Lovely will go back there again

Really great food with fresh ingredients and gluten free choices

The first time eating here. What a little gem. Food and service excellent. Will definitely be returning.

Not bad,but very slow service,when not full on a saturday night.

Camembert was 10/10 needs more bread! The mushroom risotto was quality (would recommend) but the Arabbiata pasta was below par in terms of flavours. Drinks options were limited for mock tails but for the selection taste was good. Price on food was moderate to affordable for the area and portion sizes.

Excellent food and service! Highly recommended!

Good food and good service, great experience!

Best place to eat in Edgware!! Delicious food and fab service!

We discovered this gem in the middle of Edgware where u can get real Italian food and it’s kids/friendly with an amazing team! Thanks to mr Tony top service and place! Definitely coming back!

The dishes tasted fresh and the seafood had a great depth of flavour. We traveled from South Harrow, and would definitely consider coming back. Great service Toni.

Excellent local Italian restaurant. Pizzas were fantastic Napoli style pizzas as was the garlic bread. Great venue. Worth a visit!

I don’t usually write reviews but this place is exceptional! The atmosphere, decor, service and food were truly amazing! The pizza and pasta were great and the owner was really friendly. Would definitely recommend this restaurant!

Went to this restaurant last night food was outstanding and the husband and wife team were so friend welcoming .. highly recommend will definitely go again

Delicious meal in a really lovely restaurant with good people. I went for dinner with my sister and we both loved our meals, the atmosphere was warm and friendly and the food was outstanding. Very good value for money as well.
