Had the crab penne alla vodka, and it was really good. The portion size allowed for me to take a to-go box. Very fresh. Sat at the bar, Conner served us and was very pleasant to talk to. It's small and quint in there but great food and great service.

One of my all time favorites, first time for kiddo, she loved it. Homemade pasta, everything delicious--- highlights included bourbon, clams, crab, mushroom ravioli, and sorbet. Service is always wonderful, great experience every time.

As always, service and the menu never disappoints. Familiar faces are always a pleasure to see, the ravioli and sea bass are a must!

Our food was great as always. Our server was fine, nothing special. We really didn't appreciate that after we sat down and got our drinks that we were told by the hostess that she had to move our table diagonally to fit the other group behind us she literally walked up to our table and started moving it while we're sitting there, it was embarrassing, it was handled poorly and we didn't appreciate it.

They gave us two glasses of wine ...a red and a white..both were flat..no apologies..then appetizers came out..good but we had steamed clams to share..one didn't open..we wouldn't eat it.was told that we were were lucky that it was only one..the waiter then brought out another one 15 minutes later..with no apologies again..then received check with two extra dishes that we didn't order..corrected but again no apologies..all in all not the most pleasant of experiences but it is a pretty place

Italian Barrel is my husband and my go to spot for lunch in the quarter. The service is impeccable. Cocktails are delicious (we love the Hugo Spritz). And the food is consistent and fresh and delicious. Our favorites are the Bruschetta, Meatball and Chef Samantha's pasta. Love this restaurant!!

Very good service. Very good food. It's comparable to other high-priced restaurants. Very pricey but very good. Strawberry salad, polenta, sea bass, and cauliflower are recommended.

Husband had chicken parm. It looked like a pre formed oval patty with a blob of tasteless mozzarella and canned sauce. I had penne with jumbo crab..HA. It was absolutely tasteless and over cooked with two small penny sized pieces of crab. Horrible. The prices are absolutely outrageous for Applebee's food. Tourists- AVOID at all costs.

Feels really overpriced for what it is. The food is much better at Mona Lisa. Service was slow.

Food was good. Veal piccata was had a slight crunch on the sides but overall was very soggy and chewy. Music was loud and a full house of people so it was hard to have a full conversation. Overall it was good would go back.
