The lunch at Barrel Bistro Wine Bar with my wife and best friend was exceptionally memorable. We savoured dishes such as the Chilean sea bass, lobster risotto, tenderloin, and goat cheese salad. Each entrée was meticulously prepared and distinguished by its rich flavour. The quality of service significantly enhanced our overall impression. Cleo, the manager, personally checked on us to ensure a welcoming experience. Our server, Ibo, demonstrated attentiveness, courtesy, and promptness in addressing our needs. In summary, it was an outstanding dining experience. I would confidently recommend Barrel Bistro Wine Bar to individuals seeking high-quality cuisine, attentive service, and a warm, inviting atmosphere. We are already looking forward to our next visit.

Incredible service and food! Fetit was the bartender/server…he was wonderful! Best espresso martini I’ve ever had. We had mussels/clams, wild boar goulash, and a cesar salad (with bacon)! Everything was delicious. The chef came out to talk to us, very friendly and kind. Wonderful experience all around!

The moment we walked through the door, we were greeted by warm smiles and the comforting aroma of fresh, beautifully seasoned dishes. The ambience feels like a rustic European bistro—dim lighting, wood accents, and soft music. The pasta special was outstanding, and the dessert—a rich chocolate torte—was absolute heaven. Service was attentive without being overbearing. A must-visit spot. Please go ask for Cleo She’s the best

Fantastic meal. We had the risotto with lobster - delicious. The lobster was removed from the tail so super easy to eat. The risotto with osso luck was also fabulous - so tender. Patatas bravos - amazing!!! Delicious sauce with a spicy kick. Espresso martini and whisky sour were delicious and lived up to the hype.

I had a great experience at Barrel Bistro. The food was delicious, the meat was juicy, and everything was full of flavor. The drinks were awesome — well-made and balanced. I also want to highlight the service. Barham Woman, Cleoma, and Giovanna were amazing from start to finish. Friendly, attentive, and fast they really made the visit even better. Highly recommend this place. I’ll definitely be back. Fav drink margarita Passion fruit
