First I’d like to start off by saying that I am a regular customer at Barrique. Good food, drinks, & ambiance. Unfortunately, last night I did not feel comfortable at this establishment. As we were walking in for dinner at the door, an intoxicated “macho” man walked into my boyfriend and I, and started yelling profanities at us and calling us nasty things. This was totally unwarranted. He was clearly drunk and in-coherent. Not the vibe I’m used to at this place. I come to Barrique to get away from that nonsense. Anyway, I tried yelling for the staff to help with the situation but all I was met with was blank stares from a couple of the waitresses watching the scenario take place. You would think they would’ve ran inside to at least get help. This man obviously needed to be removed. It took a few minutes of being harassed before the manager stepped in (because a nice bystander went and got him; not his actual staff). We were trying to walk away and this man was following and provoking us. I did not feel safe as I was truly considering calling the cops at this point. After the incident, we grabbed a drink at the bar and waited for our table. I discussed the situation with one of the waitresses who witnessed, and she did apologize for the incident but also said she did not want to get involved due to risk of being “hit”. Understandable, but then again, I did not enter your establishment to be hit by an obliterated men either. Therefore, action should’ve been taken sooner. I don’t think any of us would’ve liked to be “hit” or “touched”. Staff or customer. As we sat at our table, still shaken up, another waitress comes up to us and says “oh, looks like I have the trouble table”. I know this could’ve been a joke, but at this point, after being verbally and almost physically attacked by this random man, not feeling safe, respected, or protected from staff, that comment was the icing on the cake. Totally unprofessional. This whole situation was unfortunate and unacceptable as my family has been in the food service for almost 25+ years and we would never treat a paying customer like they are not worthy of safety or protection. Especially against an obvious aggressor. It is truly disappointing that the manager did not approach us and make sure we were OK afterward. After all, we did spend hundreds of dollars this same evening. To sum it all up, the whole situation just did not sit right with me and ultimately, I believe staff and the male manager should be better trained in case a problem like this does arise again.

Food was good but they charge a 5% surcharge for credit card use which is disgusting. Highly doubt it is costing them 5% .

Came for dessert and a cocktail. Coconut Crème Brûlée was terrible. Lava cake wasn’t good either but the drinks were good. Service could be better! Beautiful place and the dishes that we saw coming out, looked and smelled good. I’ll come back.

I've only been for the wine in the past, but finally sat for a meal, which was really good. Their cheese board game could be upgraded, but overall good experience with good food, nice outdoor dining in the alley which was quiet and away from the street.

It was our second time stopping by, and we had the same pleasure of being served by your wonderful bartender, Elise! The atmosphere and food are amazing, but most of all, the warm, welcoming hospitality is beyond compare. We thank Elise and truly believe that this kind of service makes this place worth coming back to.

Barrique is definitely one of the best restaurants in Babylon and arguably on Long Island. The outdoor seating is decorated beautifully and feels like a quiant European alleyway. They also have personal heaters they can turn on for you if it gets too cold outside. The food was phenomenal. From the meat and cheese boards, to the pesto gnocchi, to the short rib, my boyfriend and I were very impressed. The drinks were mostly great. My boyfriend and I loved the Gold Rush and the Butterfly Martini, however whatever Mezcal was in the Tropical Depression was a little too much for me. Thankfully when asked if I can switch it back to Butterfly Martini our waitress was super sweet about it and let me change it back with no issue. Finally the food did take a little too arrive but I guess you cannot rush perfection. I would just suggest not coming here if you are in a rush. But otherwise this is gorgeous place, with generous portions, thus I will definitely be returning!

Our experience at this restaurant was incredibly disappointing from start to finish. We were initially told the wait would be 45 minutes, only to get a call over an hour later saying it would be another 45 minutes. While we understand that estimating wait times isn’t always exact, the complete lack of communication or acknowledgment from the staff was unacceptable. Even worse, when I finally spoke to the manager, he was extremely disrespectful and talked back to me instead of offering any kind of apology or resolution. Once we were seated, the service continued to be poor, our waitress only came to the table three times: once to take our order, once to bring the food, and once to drop off the bill. Food was great but the whole experience felt careless and unprofessional, and we left feeling frustrated and ignored. We won’t be returning.

Came here on a Friday night for a date night dinner for two, wait was only about 30 minutes. The place is just a little tucked away, but it has plenty of character once you step through the main door on the side of the building. The place offers both indoor and outdoor seating, we wound up with outdoor. Loved the look of all the brick and hardwood around, and the lights kept relatively dim. Sound level was good, had no problem having conversation at all.

Wait and bar staff were attentive and very friendly, even on a night that seemed to be on the busier side.

Starting with drinks, we had the red sangria and I also tried the butterfly martini, a gin based special of the week. Both were delightful, the sangria a little lighter than I personally prefer, but was just the way my date likes it. The martini however, was delightful, I pray that they make it a staple on their cocktail list! But maybe that's just because I'm a sucker for anything with pomegranate.

Food was delicious! Most things are tapas style, making it a great way to try a few things and split with friends. We started with the gorgonzola dip and truffle fries. Don't be foolish like us and almost give away your leftover dip if you run out of bread, they gave us more to finish it off! It's basically the best fondue I've ever had, and I'm usually not one for funkier cheeses. Truffle is hit or miss with most people, and these go pretty hard on the truffle, so if you're on the fence about it, these might be a little more pungent than you'd like, although they are crispy and delicious. On to the main even we split the roast chicken and lamb chops. Both came with delectable sauces, the best green beans I may have ever tried (and I am typically a green bean hater), and perfectly fluffy mashed potatoes. The chicken was my favorite of the two, perfectly cooked, nice crispy skin, you couldn't do it much better. The tapas style also really lends to not feeling so grossly stuffed either, portions just feel more in control. We capped off the night with one of their dessert shooters, they have a ton of options but we went for the Nutella option, and splitting the little jar between the two of us was just the little bit of a sweet taste we wanted to end the night on. The rest of the menu had so many good items all across the board, with a ton of people around us especially ordering pizzas, I'm definitely eager to come back and try more.

Parking can be a bit hectic, there is street parking and a parking lot in the rear, but read your signs carefully, as there are a lot of tow away zones and some places where it's metered and some where it isn't.

The restaurant has good food. If you eat outside, it can be super noisy with motorcycles and loud cars driving by the whole night.

Oh my god, the pizza from this place is surreal—Superrr thin crust and so delicious. The Aperol spritz was on point! Definitely coming back!

I had an absolutely wonderful experience at Barrique! The ambiance is warm and inviting, perfect for a relaxed evening out or a special night with friends. What truly made the night stand out, though, was the incredible service — especially from Renzo, the bartender.

Renzo was not only knowledgeable and skilled in crafting cocktails, but also incredibly personable and attentive. He took the time to recommend drinks based on our tastes, and each one was spot-on — beautifully balanced, creative, and delicious. His passion for his craft really shines through, and it added a special touch to our evening.

Barrique is lucky to have someone like Renzo behind the bar. I’ll definitely be coming back — and recommending it to friends — for the fantastic drinks, the great vibe, and that top-notch service!
