    Food and ambience were fantastic! Burrata chicken was outstanding! Cocktails were off even when trying something different but I’ve been before and they’ve been great so may have just been an off night. Front desk staff could not have been any nicer. I’m a big Barnwood fan and highly recommend to others and will definitely be back.

    Fabulous service and all four prix fixe meals were beautifully plated and delicious (special shoutout for prep of the grilled octopus). My only issue is that it would have been nice to have some sort of advance notice that the Mother's Day menu was ONLY prix fixe, no orders off the usual menu. It turned out absolutely fine because every meal was great, but was quite a surprise when we sat down to be told prix fixe at $65 pp was the only option.

    Every time I come here, I’m always pleased with the staff, the food, and the quality of the place. It’s a very nice restaurant and it’s upscale enough that it feels like you’re doing something fun, but not too over the top.

    A wonderful restaurant tucked into a busy parking lot but once you enter you are instantly transported to a very classy and laid back environment. Food is excellent, specialty drinks and desserts delicious, I recommend making a reservation on line especially on a weekend the line was out the door when we were leaving. Bon appetite

    First time going to Barnwood Grill. BG offered good food & drinks, a nice atmosphere that is not too noisy, and solid service. Where I think they really differentiate themself in an area where there are a ton of very similar restaurants is how much more reasonably priced their menu options are vs. the rest. We had a great night and will be working this restaurant into our rotation. Was surprised to that the restaurant closed at 10pm though.
