Reviews for Barsha in Hermosa Beach, CA
I was pleasantly surprised upon arriving at Barsha, located in an obscure parking lot this hidden gem offers amazingly delicious... Tunisian delights. We were greeted by the owner Adnen Marouani, who was so funny and kind. We decided to sit at their outdoormakeshift patio (made during covid, thankfully stuck around to seat more customers and of course makes them dog friendly). Thedécor and restaurant itself are absolutely beautiful. The location is only a few blocks from the beach and guess what… youdon’t have to look or pay for parking! I would suggest coming with a big group of friends and ordering a few items from eachof the categories. Ordered Tunisian Bruschetta – Tuna Conserva, chick pea mash, tomatoes, cucumbers, hardboiled egg. RoastedEggplant – Heirloom tomato, caramelized onion, balsamic, almond Stewed Chickpeas-Meshouia, feta, crusty bread Braised beefcheeks- Slow braised beef cheeks on creamy polenta served with arugula and crispy shallots Hot fudge (probably wrong name) –Gluten free chocolate cake and Tunisian date, scoop of vanilla ice cream drizzled with out fudge. We wanted to thank the Chef sothe owner brought his wife out. Chef/Co-owner Lenora was so fun to chat with. Can’t wait to come back! Read more
The food and atmosphere here are amazing. We got the Sunday dinner special, fried chicken and homemade biscuit. The flavors were... so good, and the service is great. We also got the appetizer sampler and the braised beef cheeks. Highly recommend! Read more
Loveeee this spot in Hermosa Beach! All the food is so delicious and it’s perfect if you like tapas style and sharing with... friends/a date. There are also a lot of vegetarian options. The kale salad, meatballs and branzino are my personal favorites butyou can’t go wrong with anything on the menu. Read more

5-star alert! My wife surprised me with this delicious Tunisian restaurant on Father’s Day! It was like an exotic trip to... Mediterranean North Africa. The servers were good and the owner was super friendly and helpful! We had prawns, fish, lamb,cauliflowers, and the infamous Hand of Fatima. Everything was delicious, with unique flavors and beautifully presented. Thesauces were so unique and flavorful, we had 3 orders of bread as we want to enjoy more of the flavors in every dish!

This is my first trip to Barsha, things are a little different of course due to COVID guidelines. But all in all great food,... great experience and most importantly great ambiance under the circumstances. Adnen and all the staff go above and beyond tomake you feel welcomed and make sure you’re enjoying your visit with them. Would recommend to anyone! Great variety of foods,meats & non-meats. Drinks, beers and desserts. I will be coming back! Read more
Adnin is a delight. The food is lovely. The Hand of Fatima appetizer has hummus, harissa, pesto, tapenade and olives served... with wedges of bread. The tapenade was especially good. Our soup was tomato bisque with a dab of cream on top, herbs and a bitof crunch. We had the small plate of roasted eggplant, and larger plates of tabil branzino (which is fish - I am allergic, butmy husband says it was "quite tasty") and lamb meatballs with large couscous (about the size of early peas) in m'hansa, a tomatobased gravy. Though ostensibly meant to be shared "family style", we would have been better off getting more large plates.Still, I didn't leave hungry. Dessert was the rose trifle. The lezan mascarpone resembles rose infused whipped cream. The lemonin the poundcake was subtle. Bits of strawberry and blueberry were bursts of flavor. The Milbrandt Chardonnay was crisp andclean, pairing well with the savories and the sweets. Because of health concerns, we sat outside. The downside was that thechairs need more cushioning. The wood ones are hard on elderly backsides, and the metal ones are a bit narrow. Read more
