   I made this reservation 3 months to the day in advance. In keeping with history, if you have the audacity to reserve a table for a lone, single person, you will be treated as one class below people! Approximately 2hr prior to my reservation time I received a phone call @ my home & the lady asked me if I wanted a seat @ their bar or a table. I replied: a table, definitely. This was surely a hint @ how the evening would play out. As usual, I arrived a little early. I noticed preferential tables empty & was a little encouraged. I noticed the tables were appointed with jars containing sprigs of baby's breath, greenery, a rose, & a candle. The table I was lead to, not one of the empty window tables, had a jar with baby's breath , greenery, no rose, & no candle. My waiter was friendly and professional. I asked about the charcuterie plate & was told they were offering a limited menu & this was the last day they were open for months. (Yet another clue as to how the evening would play out.) I ordered a martini & was served the smallest martini I have ever seen. I have been drinking martinis for 40yr. I ordered a 20oz steak & after waiting an inordinately long period of time was served a portion that appeared to be considerably smaller & cost $78.00! When I finally received my check , my waiter pointed out that they had assigned their own gratuity and it was $33.38. I wonder how legal that is. I have visited this establishment once before. In the review I wrote at the time, I mentioned my concern with their dress code both for employees & patrons . . . or lack there of. As was evident this evening, my suggestions were totally ignored.

   I guess that New Year's was not a good time to try out the Barge for the first time. It took a long time to get our food and everyone didn't get their food at the same time. Our server was obviously waiting too many tables and had a hard time getting back to us. The one redeeming thing was the food was excellent when we finally got it.

   The first 2 entrees we ordered were not available. Wait time for appetizer was longer than expected.

   No matter what the noise level, the booths put you too far away from your dining companions. That is the worst thing I can say about the place.

   Although this restaurant is hard to find (signage not great), we LOVED the Bistro at the Barge. Quiet, friendly, GREAT FOOD. Attentive service. Quiet. Great views of river. We would definitely return if we lived a little closer. Idaho is a long way to come for a great restaurant but will definitely do it again.

   Great evening from the door being held open to it being open when leaving. Everything in between was just as wonderful!

    Great place for a fun girls-night-our birthday dinner. Chef Marshall and his team are awesome!
