“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely Outstanding! My wife and I went to Barley and Salt tonight and had an incredible experience. We started with the loaded calamari (no cilantro), and it was easily some of the best calamari we’ve ever had, crispy, tender, and packed with flavor thanks to the sweet chili sauce and aioli. Perfect start. For dinner, I had the open-faced chicken piccata, and wow, the chicken was perfectly breaded, the lemon caper sauce was rich and balanced, and the mashed potatoes and focaccia brought it all together. My wife ordered the lamb gyro tacos, and she couldn’t stop raving about them. The lamb was tender and full of flavor, and the cucumber tzatziki and pickled onions were spot on. On top of the great food, our server was fantastic, friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable about the menu. They made the experience even better. Highly recommend Barley and Salt, we’ll definitely be back!“
