Upon stepping inside, you are greeted by a warm and inviting ambiance, adorned with wooden accents, cozy lighting, and rustic decor that exudes a welcoming and comforting atmosphere. The restaurant's rustic look adds a touch of charm and authenticity to the dining experience. The menu at Red Barrel Restaurant offers a diverse selection of dishes that cater to various tastes. One dish that truly stood out was the Chicken Cordon Bleu. Stuffed with spinach, ham, and mozzarella, this culinary creation was a delightful blend of flavors. The chicken was perfectly cooked, tender and juicy, while the combination of the stuffing ingredients added a delectable richness to each bite. Served alongside veggies, mashed potatoes, and a touch of rosemary glaze, the dish was a harmonious symphony of tastes that left me thoroughly satisfied. Another highlight of the menu was the Pork Chop Porterhouse. This dish featured a succulent pork chop served with Yukon potatoes, candied bacon, Brussels sprouts, and a tantalizing honey mustard glaze.

I sat at the bar and ordered all top shelf food and drinks but my food was not the greatest at all my service and drinks were great it made up for the lack of quality of food I received. I will give them a second try to be fair also the food I did not like was noticed and covered by the server he actually Saved the day Thankyou! Alexis

Took my boyfriend for his birthday. Tbh, it was the day after his birthday and I casually mentioned it in conversation with our lovely waitress Ximena. I did not expect her and the entire staff to go above and beyond and set up a birthday celebration surprise! They came out with a complimentary cheese cake, sparkler candle, and sang a joyful happy birthday song. Our food was absolutely amazing! Every bite “taste like heaven” as my daughter described it. I think my family and I have officially found our favorite restaurant. They had something in the menu for everyone’s liking. Will definitely be returning. Thank you for the wonderful experience.

Red Barrel is my new favorite restaurant. Ample parking and family friendly. The ambiance is romantic and dim-lit. Our server Miguel was friendly and made excellent recommendations. For appetizers we started with garlic shrimp. The shrimp was cooked perfectly and the sauce was incredible. My mom ordered a cream of broccoli soup and grilled calamari and enjoyed both. The servings are very filling. My son had the cheese ravioli in tomato sauce and the sauce tasted homemade and the ravioli was fresh. He finished an entire adult sized plate. We ordered a side of toasted bread to dip in our sauces- they were that good. I had the chicken Marsala which was no surprise, also amazing. My absolute favorite part of dinner was the wine selection. Vinos de los muertos is the perfect red wine. Not excessively sweet, and just a hint of spiciness. 10/10!

I was in the area to visit a relative and we were thinking of where to eat for dinner. His first choice was Huck Finn. I wasn't impressed by their menu selection. Red Barrel popped as a restaurant choice so I figured let's give it a try. Based on the reviews I see why people love this restaurant. I ordered the broiled cedar plank salmon w/purple potatoes. My cousin ordered the steak and potatoes. Both meals were absolutely divine!! To top that off we ordered cocktails & desserts. Our server was Miguel last night. He was very attentive. I was very delighted by our meals, the ambiance and the service.
