The Barrel Club

The food was amazing! My server Chris was very knowledgeable and fast.

We had a great time. Everyone was so nice. We can't wait to come back.

We were there to celebrate Mother’s Day. A mishap in the kitchen caused our food to come out later than it should have, but the manager came over and apologized and offered us free drinks. By the time the manger came back with drinks the food was there! Everything was delicious!

Great Sunday brunch for Mother's Day...as always, the staff is extremely friendly and provided roses for the mom's. Food is fantastic!

The food was excellent and my server was great! Will definitely be going back.

The food was as expected...decent breakfast food. I was more disappointed at the service provided by our server. I don’t have a problem with the automatic 18% gratuity however I do feel servers should still provide the minimum service such as straws with your drinks, napkins with your meal, putting in your food as you order it, etc. We had a group of 8 where we were split into groups of 4 to a table which meant two separate servers two separate checks. Our server didn’t find it necessary to put our food in as we ordered - something simple as a bacon cheeseburger became a cheeseburger with bacon flavored aioli. The server for the 2nd table (Ken) saw how important it was for our table to have drinking straws and napkins. My server 1 star but Ken (server for table 2 who had a completely separate table and tab) gets 5 stars!

We were seated at the reserved time. The atmosphere was pleasant, food was good and drinks were top of the line. I ordered two entrees: salmon and Amish chicken, bith were great. The stuffed mushrooms were good (the sauce added more flavor). The flight options were really a good add to the dining experience, we received a complimentary apple barrel whiskey which was nice close to the evening. We did sit by a loud party with a loud waiter, that kind of dampened the experience, but overall I will visit again.

Celebrating Mother’s Day

Disappointed to be chased out of our mothers day brunch table so quickly.

Our server Sarah was amazing. Food was delicious. Wish we had more than 90 mins so could have had dessert. The cocktail flight was spectacular.

The food was great only issue was I heard the server complain as soon as we were seated. She said OMB are they really still sitting people omg. Very unwelcoming.

Finding a sweet spot on the Southside of Chicago is hard to come by. So, when I found this gem tucked away behind another popular food chain, I was pleasantly surprised! From the host, to the server, meal, drinks and dessert, everything was outstanding! The added bonus for me is not having to trek downtown to find a legit establishment with a great food menu that specializes in Whiskey. The chef really takes care in using the freshest ingredients on every plate. And, kudos for a courteous and professional staff. The owners and chef really have scored with bringing supreme class and chic experience south. Not sure which cocktail to choose from, try their cocktail flight. This is a great spot for 30+ crowd. And, they have live music on the patio during the summer. I hope to visit again soon!

Service was excellent! Food was good. House wine reasonably priced.

Arrived 12 mins late for 8:15 reservation. Was told reservation was canceled and couldn’t seat us until maybe 9:15. Went to the car to wait and saw that Opentable had 8:30 and 8:45 reservation showing available. Called from the car and was told I could come back in and be seated. Went back in and the hostess said I should have never been told that by her coworker and we could not be seated, despite me seeing empty tables. She insisted I had to wait until 9:15. She was extremely rude and I will never dine there again.

Great drinks You have to get the 3 for $18 signature drink special.
Forbidden fruit is banging

I had such a great time and experience waiters were great food was great drinks were great if I could give this place 10 stars I would I love it definitely worth it

Great customer service every time we go! The food is really good too!!

We came here for a girls night out and our server Oscar was phenomenal. He made the night just so much more fun. The flight of drinks option is really cool. And the bonus was at the food was good too. I really just went there for drinks and fun. Their Brussel sprouts are amazing and be warned when you order the chicken, it's actually an entire rotisserie chicken. I got the salmon and it was delicious too. It's more of an upbeat atmosphere so if you're looking for a fun night out with friends I would definitely recommend this spot.

Lovely staff, great food. Nuff said.

Staff professional and informative

Its been over a year since we went there food was great,clean and very safe to dine there

Everything was ok - very pricey for "ok", though. Four entrees, four drinks, an appetizer and the bill was $200. The drink prices are reasonable, but the entrees are pretty high. Interior is nice, lights were very, very bright over the tables.

Our first time, but we'll be back. We're really enjoyed the food, service, and atmosphere.

It was our first time at The Barrel Club snd I was so looking forward to it. I made reservations, but was seated right by the kitchen. A little disappointing. I know times are different, but was not happy sitting there. Food was very good along with the drinks. We will come back after the outside tables open up.

Nice place. Good food though a bit pricey. Wait staff were very friendly and efficient.

Had a great evening. Food was hot and cooked to perfection. The drink flights are the way to go. Got to try new cocktails and found some new favorites.

Great food, they have the best Brussels sprouts in earth and the cocktail flights are the best.

Great food but, the server missed our appetizer. Our waitress was kind enough to remove it from our bill without hassle.

We definitely will be returning Great food and great service from Oscar

Food was either undercooked or overcooked and too much salt. Our server Joseph provided outstanding customer service and wanted to make sure we had a good experience. The ambiance was nice as we sat by the wide window in the bar area. Since my first visit back when they first opened, the menu has gone through some changes. In my opinion, more changes need to be made to offer more of a variety, even in the appetizer area. There is a full bar, so you will get your choice of beverage. The restaurant also offers gaming, if that is something you are interested. You can even take their favorite cocktails to go for your own bar at home.

The customer service is awesome

Everything was amazing thank you for the great service will definitely be back

Our Waite team was gracious and accommodating. The food was delicious. My husband and I have dined there several times and have never been disappointed.

Oscar is the BEST! I went there with my sister and cousin and ALL of our food and drinks were amazing! We had a great time at brunch and we're planning to return again for dinner very soon. My family is one of picky eaters and for all of us to give A ratings for the food we had says a lot! We are looking forward to dining there again and can't wait until the patio dining is open. Oh, I want to make sure I mention the chef, GREAT JOB, and the rest of the staff did an exceptional job as well making sure we had a pleasant experience. Thank you all!

Was seated 10 minutes past reservation after arriving 5 minutes early. Took 15 minutes to get a server to our table. Drinks were boozy and not well mixed. Wrong appetizer was brought to the table. Main course was scorching hot and over cooked.... the entire experience from the moment we walked in the door was off. Our waiter was nonexistent took 1 order since we had 15 minutes to view the entire menu. After that it was nothing but runners serving us

Food was really good. Service was good too. I just looked it up on open table when we were around the area. 👍👍

First time visiting. Had brunch with my friends and we all loved the food, drinks and atmosphere. Will definitely be back!

Service was worst that I ever had. My server was nowhere to be seen most of the evening and when we could get her attention she didn’t remember to bring things that were requested. I had to send my appetizer back and my main meal was not done to my specifications but I didn’t want to cause issues continually sending my food back. My past experience was so nice that I was hoping for a repeat, but I was very underwhelmed

Social Distancing and clean. The food was awesome. Try the 3 for $18 cocktail flights. Our server Susanna was great. The manager was personable. I had the short ribs, whipped potatoes and carrots. Very good. I did request them to do my potatoes loaded. That cost an extra $5. But, it was worth it. Oh! My friends and I shared a dessert. "The Beignets with praline ice cream. Awesome!!! Tons of free parking!!

I am always of two minds when leaving this restaurant. The food and cocktails are consistently excellent, but the service is ALWAYS so terrible I consider never returning. On this last visit, I had reserved a high top in the bar. We arrived on time and told that there were still people at our table who would be finished shortly. We said we would wait at the bar. 20 minutes later, we still had not been served drinks by the bartender and it was clear that "our table" was nowhere near finished as they were still eating and ordering drinks! The hostess admitted that our reserved table was not going to happen, and said we could have a booth in the bar. We sat down and got our drinks 1/2 hour after entering the restaurant. We were also told by the waitress that if we still wanted the high-top we should keep an eye open and run for it if and when the people left. WTF?! We spent $165 on dinner and drinks for 2 and she wants us to "run" for a table we reserved?! This is the 3rd time I have experienced truly horrible service at The Barrel Club and never been offered any kind of compensation. As I said, the food is really good, but not sure it is really worth it.
