   I have been to the LA location many times. The Chicago experience was not very good. It took forever for the food to come out. It was kind of pulling teeth getting our order in. The food was good - the presentation was good. The service was bad.

    Very loud music, staff was ok but not too friendly/professional. They made us move the table during dinner, props were taken away too early. Cake cutting by the waitress was horrible. Food was good. Ok-value for a high price.

    Barton G's food is sooooo good and their ambiance is amazing! We enjoyed the decor and artistry that was incorporated with our meals and drinks! I will say that their customer service lacks quite a bit. The servers were basically rushing us to be done with our food and they were very nonchalant with us as guests. It was my birthday and I've had better celebratory experiences at Red Lobster. I would definitely go again because I enjoyed the food, drinks, and decor experience! Their customer service is for certain the reason why this restaurant isn't as popular as it should be!

    The kitchen was running behind so they delivered lobster pop tarts to the table... even after I explained my allergy to shellfish 😕. With a reservation, out table was not ready... and when we were seated the table had not been cleaned. Over all experience was cool! Miami location, much better.

    I was visiting Chicago with my daughter and she asked to go here because she saw the restaurant featured on food network. The food is just ok, definitely not worth the price though. I enjoyed the unique presentation of the dishes, but the portion size and taste just didn't do it. Infact, after we left our entire party had to stop at Jim's (local eatery) to get something else to eat. But it was an experience and I can say I went but I wouldn't go back.

    We had higher expectations but weren’t impressed! Appetizers were delightful and presentation was good! Our party of only 6 had an extended wait for seating, minimum of 30 minutes after our reservation and for dinner service! This was just something to do, not an wow experience as we thought it should be!

    Overall experience very fun. Food needs work. $300 tomahawk full of fat, inedible, and disappointing. If you are hungry, this is not the place to go to, if you are looking for a good time and a new experience while dining or drinking, this would be that.

    Food was overpriced. Menu was dirty, waited a hour and a half for dessert that never came!!! While waiting for dessert that never came waiter kept lying and saying it will be ready in 2 minutes. I got tired of waiting so asked for check waiter was not pleased with tip and asked for more money and tried to keep my receipt!!! Paid a lot of money for a horrible memory for my daughters 15th bday!!! Truly disgusted!!!

    The restaurant was surprisingly small and quiet. There was no music playing in the background, only the chatter of guests, therefore lacking energy and ambience for a Saturday night out. Many tables were left open and tables themselves had no tablecloth, simply a napkin folded like a robe and some utensils. Each item on the menu came with a prop. After you saw the props being delivered to other peoples tables, it was not that exciting to receive your own. The props were in fact clever. But you see them once, there’s no need to see them again. If the food was extraordinary then maybe it would be worth returning. However, the food was simply mediocre. There was no signature dish on the menu only typical American food items which tasted fine but nothing to wow. Not to mention, they messed up my salad order and 2 salmons needed to be sent back for additional cooking. There were so many people attending to the tables to carry all the props, but they kept asking to clear away dishes instead of allowing us to eat our meal. It became annoying to continue sending them away. Lastly, when the bill arrived, they charged an extra $3 for liquor served WITHOUT ice and their tableside credit card swiper automatically charged a 30% tip to the bill. Thankfully we caught it before we signed the receipt. It’s Disneyland for adults but not worth going back again. Been there done that. I don’t think it will last in Chicago .

    We made reservations for 4 about a month in advance, and the table was ready when we arrived. We went to celebrate my mom's birthday. Our server was very nice, but I think he had too many customers to provide us with the 5-star service I expected after spending over $500 for a meal for 4 people. It was difficult to fit all the food with theatric on the small table and the waiters who brought it out were not very accommodating. One sever was downright rude. I probably wouldn't go back to this Barton G location but I am willing to try some others in different cities.

    Interesting experience and the food was good, and the Waitress was excellent. However, the one note that I would recommend to the Manager. Through our entire dinner, I can count over 10 times where I was asked whether they can take things away from the table. Multiple interruptions where we felt rushed instead of enjoying the night. Unfortunate.. but hopeful advice to gain more repeat customers.

    Highly recommend for special occasions. The waiter was outstanding! Due to some very minor hiccups during service, the manager comp’d the Strawberry Fields and sent us home with a bag full of short rib and lobster pop tarts! A bit pricey but you pay for the pomp and circumstance along with the food.

    I went on a date for Chicago Restaurant Week and also to celebrate my birthday. I was turned off from the day BEFORE when they called to confirm my reservation. The lady told me that if I ordered desert that they would put sparklers in it but that the dessert itself would not be free. What an odd thing to say. On the day of, they didn’t even mention CRW. We received the default menus and I had to ask for Restaurant Week menus. The decor is stuck in the 70s and does not go with the food presentation. The food was good. But not for the price. Just seemed like much ado about nothing.
