The brisket was delicious and the tomato cheese salad was excellent! The service was super. They were fun, had good sense of humor
Food was good, but the server was not that good. Slow to show up and get a drink order. Food came very fast.
Was a very calm and relaxed environment. Unique atmosphere was very cool. Add great food, and the ability to sit and talk, and it made for a great date!
Ordered a caesar salad and it arrived looking like this it was returned and taken off bill but how does this get served in a restaurant.without cook or server thinking this doesn't look edible.It was explained to us that it is a cooked salad thst is suppose to be charred but restaurant doesn't have a boiler so salad cannot be cooked correctly. This is explained after it was ordered, placed and rejected by a customer and then admitting restaurant cannot cook the salad correctly but we will still slide it in front of a customer at a price $12-$15.Manager did explain due to the salad being returned so much Barrel and Boar will be removing this from the menu and going back with the traditional ceasar salad...If someone had salad that looked like this in their refrigerator they would throw it away.Unfortunatly any restaurant that would serve this salad and then provide the excuse that was provided for why it was served like it was will not be open much longer without major changes.
We have never had a bad meal here. The roasted brussel sprouts are delicious!! The Flying Hawaiian, the burgers and the burnt ends are awesome. Manager has always been there and comes to table to be sure you are having a good experience.
Went to Barrel and Boar downtown Newark on 3rd Street . When you walk in you smell the aroma of smoked meats .Definitely will go back. The food is wonderful, the people were so friendly and helpful . The sweet tea was better than any I've had out. Now some people like super sweet. I do not. This tea was like if I had made it at home. Sweet but not too sweet. They have seats for every type of person. Weather you like tall seats, short seats, table or booth they have it all !!
"Good food and beautiful people." -my son. Pulled pork is moist and flavorful, beef brisket has a delicious, smokey flavor made better by the sweet and smokey bbq sauce, the mashed potatoes are smooth as silk, and the burgers are smashing! The friendly and helpful staff will bring you back for more if the brownie doesn't do the trick. Repete costumers for life!
Food was very good. Want to go back again soon. I had the brisket and it was tender and tasty. My friend had the sweet potato fries and they were delicious.
Our party liked the food overall. My Bloody Mary was jus ok, mostly tomato juice. The glass of red wine was acidic as if bottle had been open a while. We ordered the carrot hummus. It was very plain. I would not order it again. The shrimp and grits was tasty although very soupy. The burgers were very good. If in town, I would definitely go again and try something different.
Everything was very good. The food is always good and the service outstanding
