Barberra

My wife and I had been talking about going to Barberra over the last week, only to see a recent Instagram post indicating some changes coming - which motivated us to pop in. The main attraction being the Kokoda (pronounced Ko-kon-da), which is a Fijian version of the Samoan oka / raw fish. We were looking forward to the Beef Rib which featured on an online menu but wasn’t on the in-house menu when we arrived. We thought they seemed short staffed given the number of diners - but to be honest, we didn’t feel we waited very long at all. The frickle (fried pickle) is a bit weird and sweet, but apart from that the rest of our dishes were great - including the kokoda. Only other very minor gripe was the pork belly which wasn’t as tender as we hoped but we still shovelled that down. Would easily return if the opportunity arises.

We had such a lovely time at this restaurant. It was a great atmosphere. The staff were so helpful, caring, efficient & just plain AWESOME. We felt treasured the whole time. I cannot recommend this team highly enough. And a shout out to Amber. A born natural & GOOD PERSON. Thank you for going the extra mile for us. Warmly, Tracy Trubshoe-Oden :)
