Best Seasonal Restaurants in Barrington

The Boat House never fails to impress! The food was excellent with generous portions, along with a great atmosphere at “The most wonderful time of the year!” Our server JP was wonderful and was very attentive. One of our other favorites, bartender/server Faithe was also nice enough to come over to our table to greet us as well. It’s nice to go someplace “where everybody knows your name.” This is one of our go to spots as there is never a question in mind about what you are in for!

Great dinner as always. We had a young waiter he was very kind and understanding. Always accommodated our requests. At the end of the night he received a nice Christmas gift from us for his great service.

Gracie’s has perfected the restaurant experience. Food was exquisite, service impeccable . The small details that were not missed by the staff made it a fabulous evening as we celebrated my son’s birthday.

A lovely gem of a bistro, quiet for a near weekend evening. We both had a French onion soup that had rich flavor, great umami and was perfect for a cold night. My lamb chops were tender with a nice char to offset the sweetness of the meat, the cassoulet that accompanied was the right accompaniment instead of a starch, and my wife enjoyed her duck confit. A nice Chablis and two very good desserts finished the experience. Our server was attentive and not at all stuffy and we felt welcomed. Will go back a lot.

Great spot for a holiday gathering. Table for 10 nicely set up for us and waitress was attentive and friendly. Ordered some apps (wings and calamari), both were good. Then 4 pizzas which we all shared. Plenty of food. Nicely decorated for the holidays.
