Barbette, Minneapolis, Minnesota, French Restaurant Details

Food:

Exuding "Midwestern heartiness", this all-day Uptown bistro offers "well-prepared" French and American fare dispatched by a "cut-above" team in "stylish", "urban-chic" digs; its "hip" following also applauds the "reasonable" tabs, "Parisian lighting" and "nonpretentious ambiance."

Food:

Head over for great prices on a variety of food for their late night happy hour menu. Mark your calendar for their Bastille Day block party in July. Local artists, live music, local brews and food topped off with a fire show. A terrific summer Sunday celebration!

The only place i go with my wife regularly, it's like we live there.! :) You can never go wrong at this place , everything you order is great. Some portion are tiny, but you know it has that French or European taste and style, smaller portion but satisfaction is guaranteed! The waiters are very friendly, If you been there more then 3 times, they know you and they might bring your favorite drink before you even ask.

Food:

Not amazing.

I have been to barbette several times, as I live in the neighborhood. Each time, the service was really underwhelming. I got the "too cool for school" vibe from the hostess, and the bartender threw me some serious shade when I asked for a drink menu. The ambiance is lovely, and the restaurant features wonderful decor. The menu is nothing to write home about - very standard items that never really blew me away. The attitude of the staff, however, is the main turn off for me. I really want to like it.

Food:

Great service. Fantastic food. Easy accessibility.

I had a great experience at Barbette based on food and wine. Service can be inconsistent depending on how full the restaurant is during dinner.
The one time we had a long wait to get our entrees, the waitress made up for it by handing out free pommes frites tokens. She acknowledged the delay and apologized up and down for the service.
I came here recently on a cold night and had the larger portion of mussels and the chicken entree to share which hit the spot. I was also happy with the wine selection and ended up with a recommendtaion from our server. I'll be back to check out the brunch menu.
