Caffe Barocco - West Hempstead

Great service, lots of food, love the place, it is our place!!!!!

Brunch was delicious. The environment was warm and secret. Must come back.

Breakfast here was delicious. I had the Spanola sandwich on gluten free bread which was great. The food was fresh and tasty. The staff was friendly and warm. I highly recommend.

I would use the word bistro, but honestly, I 'm not entirely sure what a bistro is. If I had to describe one, though, I would say the qualities of a good bistro are intimacy and the malleability and creativity of the menu. If I hit the nail on the head, then Cafe Barocca hit the nail on the bistro. I don 't think it could seat more than 20 people, but I 've never struggled to find a seat. I 've been there for brunch and lunch. The food is good on its own, but when you look at the price, you realize that it is a GREAT DEAL. The coffee is excellent too. Sometimes, the service is lackluster (sometimes slow, sometimes everyone disappears for a while), but they are observant, professional, and they care when they are actually around (most of the time, really). Haven 't had any of the wine or tapas because I am not froufy or yuppy enough, but maybe one day. I 'm sure it 'd be good.

I visited the restaurant for a late lunch or dinner, and I found both the food and service to be excellent. I'm not sure why some people have mentioned that the cost is between $50 and $100 per person, as I've never spent that much for two people.
