    Made last minute reservations and were promptly seated upon arrival. Restaurant was busy for this time of year, but service was prompt and friendly. Best part was the food. We ordered the mussels and calamari for appetizers excellent. Topped off with the Fra Diablo and Bouillabaisse . Both excellent choices. We have never had a bad experience or a bad meal. A staple for us when we come out to BI.

    By far, the best prepared food I have ever experienced when dining out. ….. and I eat out regularly. I was seated at the counter area overlooking the chefs cooking station, and I loved it…watching them prepare every meal. It’s tight, so you are very close to your neighbor…. But I didn’t mind. The staff is exceptional! I wish The Barn wasn’t on an island…. I would dine there every week!!!

    Our bartender Reb was professional, warm and very polite and took great care of us. The hostess, Sylvia was equally warm, friendly with a genuine smile! Our server Payton was also equally warm, friendly and a true professional. Food was five stars and same for ambiance on the outdoor terrace. We will return again and again! Fantastic experience.
