   It was very busy on Valentine's day which made the service slow. My soup came to the table before my wine. My server Casey was sweet and as attentive as possible. The steak was a bit tough but I could tell it was seasoned well.

   This is our second time dining at Barbarella. Our first time was fantastic. Last night (Valentine’s Day)- we wish we had gone somewhere else. The entire restaurant was so cute- however, they stuck us in the back room. Our table was still dirty when they sat us… 5 minutes later, someone came by to clean it. Then they brought us plastic water cups? It was so odd. Our candle was never lit. The food was good. The service was meh. Honestly, we won’t be back..

   The food was very disappointing. It all lacked flavor and was very average. I had high hopes and was bummed with the experience.

   We had a reservation the day before Valentine’s Day so understandably busy. I never thought I’d complain about food coming out too fast, but here I am complaining about the food coming out too fast. We got our food just a couple of minutes after our drinks and were out in about 45 minutes only because I took my time finishing my drink. The ambiance was cute although we were right by the door and everyone passing by had to shift through sideways to get through. I think a table for 2 would have been better fitting for that space than our table for 4. Overall not worth the cost for a 45 minute dinner.

   If you’re going for the Valentines Day decor don’t get stuck in the back. It’s nothing like what’s promoted. We spent $220 I would have been happy to spend for the cute factor in the front of the restaurant. For the back, considering I was taking my wife and daughter for the V day decor, it was like lipstick on a pig - still ballon’s and decor but it felt like we were in someone’s not so cute back yard. Food is ok. Service was perfect. Did not get half the value I was hoping for for the money spent.

   Waiter was great and service as a whole very good. They let my wife and I split a Greek salad which was fantastic. The margarita pizza was very good, but we split that as well, plenty of food. Very happy and a nice place to drop in!

   We went for a lil Galentines day dinner and it was so much fun. Everything was cute with the decor and our server was the sweetest. Great food and good music, can’t wait to be back!

    Environment was very fun and service was surprisingly fluid despite there being a very large private party on the patio at the same time! Our server was great, he was there when we needed and gave us space when we got caught up in gossip.
