Always an excellent time at T-Bar. The food is consistent, whether it’s the Rib Eye or the Chicken Milanese. Cooked to perfection with a helpful staff. It’s one of the restaurants that I always come back to time and time again
Waiter was excellent but hostess rushed dinner despite us arriving half hour early to an empty restaurant. Felt pushed out.
The burgers were phenomenal. In this era of covid, it felt very safe.
The food is always fantastic here, the service top notch and the ambience very nice. Covid-19 is taken very seriously, with social distancing, silverware sealed in plastic, temp checks, hand sanitizer and beautiful partitions between the tables. The bread is absolutely amazing, especially the rosemary one and the olive filled one. Love it here.
The food is amazing and the service was terrific. There was definitely more than 25% capacity in the restaurant which made us very nervous.
Another amazing dinner even with COVID 19
Had dinner with the wife and kids
I took a friend for dinner for her birthday and we sat outside on a nice night. I noticed there were no heat lamps but fortunately we did not need them. Our waitress, Katie, was great. We shard a sushi appetizer and I had the Sea bass and my friend the Filet Mignon. both were prepared very well and delicious.
We shared a strawberry shortcake dessert which was a great ending to a wonderful meal.
Here is where I was a bit shocked. The prices were quite expensive (probably raised them due to Covid). I have eaten here many times before and I don't recall spending this much on dinner.
Since, it was for a birthday celebration I brushed it off but not sure it is a place to go for a "bite" to eat at these prices.
My favorite ❤️
Loved everything and great covid precap
We love it there!!!
Food and service was great. Love the lucite barriers for indoor dining. Oh and don’t let me forget the amazing bread basket. Can’t. Wait to go back
AMAZING! thats all i can say... the food, the drinks, everything!!!!!
Food was terrific. Safe and inviting set up for Covid safety. Can’t wait to come back again soon!
Service and food were excellent. Great neighborhood restaurant with a friendly staff
Everything was perfect- menu- service- food preparation
Heat lamps would have been a plus but we had, yet again, a great dining experience.
Noise and ambiance poor because of outdoor eating.
We dined at TBar on Sunday and they are doing an amazing job with this covid situation. Prewrapped silverware for each course. Service was wonderful and attentive. Hubby and I had a wonderful meal and I’m so glad Brussels sprouts are back! We sat inside and they have partitions between tables and windows open for ventilation. Cant wait to go back!
Way TOO COLD inside with windows open. I understand Covid concerns BUT not an enjoyable dinner. Guess we’ll wait til weather warms up or Covid is GONE.
A loyal customer
The salad with poached shrimp was tasteless, Iceberg lettuce and the dressing had no taste.
The french fries were good.
A glass of wine was $19 and the cab was nothing special
We arrived at the restaurant for our reservation only to find the restaurant closed.
Delicious and amazing as always
Careful outdoor dining. Food great, service not as efficient. Still one of my favorites and will continue to go back. Hope others agree & support this great neighborhood restaurant.
TBar has done a great job with COVID related practices. Tables well spaced apart, cutlery provided in plastic packaging, etc.
The food was fantastic.
It was lovely and safe
Food was delicious and service friendly and efficient
Always consistant, great food and wonderful service
We always have an excellent brunch here. Service is excellent!
The atmosphere is very calm and pleasant.
Good basic food - well prepared
Unbelievable and great service. Food was excellent. Do a great job for those with peanut allergy.
The burger was too salty as I remembered the last time I ordered. I will stick with the rib eye which is always great and the fish dishes.
Brunch was very good. Good food included a drink, attentive service and very well priced. My friend and I were able to talk and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. I’ll go again.
It’s always excelllent food, good service and I enjoy going there often.
Menu is varied enough- lot of choices and prices
Food is poorly spiced and very bland. It seem to have gotten worst.Chicken Milanase soggy and limp. Find an alternative
Good location, nice menu, useful for many things.
Looking a bit tired.....could use an update particularly on the upper level.
All in all the type of place we have too few of.
Happy its here!
This restaurant was a perfect choice for restaurant week but would be too pricey for me otherwise. The noise level of the lunch crowd in the front room was high but fortunately we ate in the back room which was quite pleasant. The waitstaff were great and the food was delicious. Banana parfait was to die for!
Always consistent but tired of seeing the same menu selection. Specials would be nice or different preparation of the same items.
Excellent food and good service.
