Fire-driven Argentinian cooking in Core City with a room—and a neighborhood—that feel like Detroit’s next chapter.

NOAH’S TAKE

BARDA is exactly the kind of ambitious restaurant that makes me excited about Core City. The specialized grill gives the cooking its identity, the bar setting is unique, and the whole experience feels rooted in a neighborhood that is still becoming something special.

THE MOVE

Make BARDA dinner the anchor and use sister spot PUMA for a drink or appetizer before or after.

GO HERE WHEN

You want a distinctive dinner, live-fire cooking, or an excuse to explore what is happening in Core City.
