I’ve been coming to the barn for years now. I have to say most restaurants are hit and miss on quality of your food. The barn stands out to me by its constant consistency on the quality. I’d highly suggest anything that’s on their menu ! You won’t be disappointed! The service is also always 5star! Should out to one of our favs Shelby!
We moved here from the coast in April 2024, and at first, The Barn seemed promising. I’ve been there about five times, and while the first two visits were pleasant—despite slow service due to a single bartender handling the entire restaurant—things took a turn for the worse after that.
On our third visit, I wanted to order pizza, only to be told that the owner is typically the one who makes it and wasn’t there that night. That meant no pizza. It was baffling that a restaurant would rely on just one person for such a staple menu item.
Still willing to give it another shot, we returned and encountered even more issues. My wife tried ordering dinner but was told they were out of multiple basic ingredients. She then opted for a baked potato, only to be told they were out of sour cream. How does a restaurant run out of something as simple as sour cream without making a quick trip to the store?
Our most recent visit was the most frustrating. We wanted wings as an appetizer, but the waitress returned to inform us they would take 15 minutes just to start cooking. Already hungry, we passed. Then, my 19-year-old son ordered a Diet Coke. It was served in a small cocktail glass, and after just a few sips, it was gone. When he asked for a refill, they informed him they were out of Diet Coke—seriously? My wife ordered seltzer water, also served in a small cocktail glass. When she ordered another, they again served it in the same tiny glass. When we got the bill, we were stunned to see they charged $3 per seltzer water and $3 for the Diet Coke.
This restaurant needs to get its act together. Running out of basic items, failing to accommodate customers, and charging premium prices for meager portions of soda is unacceptable. Unfortunately, after multiple disappointing experiences, we’re not sure we’ll be returning.

Very nice place with absolutely delicious food! I had the tri-tip steak and it was so mouth watering good. It was cooked perfect (medium rare) and so juicy it just melted in your mouth! We got seated in the lounge of which is a more private area with super comfortable seats and couches with real low lighting making it a bit more comfortable for my best friend and my wife's best friends blind first date of which we doubled with them. Everyone ordered different plates and everyone really enjoyed them from my tri-tip to the lobster raviolis, fish and soup and salad. The waitress was very nice and kept checking out drinks and if we needed anything or if the food was to our liking, of which I must say, seems harder and harder to find good service these days! We weren't rushed out and actually sit for awhile after our meal and just talked for a bit without any looks or being made uncomfortable 😁I highly recommend The Barn to everyone who's looking for a spectacular and very comfortable dining experience with awesome and delicious food!

What an incredible first-time experience! A few days ago, I stopped by this restaurant with my CFO after a business meeting.
The Barn provided a beautiful night ambiance, and Gabriella impressed us with her outstanding presentation while serving our Clase Azul margaritas.
I didn’t get to try the food this time, but I’ll definitely be back—I’m sure it’s amazing!
Huge thanks to Gabriella and The Barn for making it a memorable visit!

This is just what Ramona needed. The service and food was on point. It took a bit to get our food, but it was hot and not dried out when we got it.

We decided to have dinner and watch some live music here since we had an over night stay in Ramona. Food was good, atmosphere was pleasant and wait staff was friendly enough. Would eat here again if needed. 😁
Always a great stop for the Cobb salad and happy hour.

Food expensive with little portions. Had to return French Onion Soup. No flavor at all. Filet Mignon was really dry! The service was almost at non existent. We had to go and get a to go container eventually at the bar and bag our own food. It is called The Barn. Country Decorated. You would expect Country Music. Not the case. We had a terrible time and spent a lot of money! I don’t recommend this place to anyone. We were staying next door at a Hotel and it was convenient. Stay away!!

The Barn in Ramona is great! The rustic atmosphere, coupled with delicious food and friendly service, makes it a must-visit. I was particularly impressed with the quality of the food. Every bite was a delight! The live music in the evenings added a great touch, creating a lively and enjoyable ambiance. If you're looking for a unique dining experience with a country twist, The Barn is definitely worth checking out.
