Great for outdoor dining
Good for groups

Of course, the real reason to visit Barbianca is the food, which is quite simply, “delizioso!”

If you are staying at the hotel, it would be very convenient to dine there. Decent food, good service.

The food was for the most part good, but not great. Especially for the very high price charged. The service was inefficient and frustrating as I had to get up and look for the waiter for everything I needed. We were celebrating my birthday and I looked on line and found the restaurant chosen from location and good website. I was sorry I choose and family was somewhat disappointed. Sorry I have to give a less than positive experience but Judy being honest. Oh, the place was quiet and good for privacy.

Nice and quiet spot, always consistent with their food and good service. Good outdoor area, plenty of indoor seating and live sports if you’re into it.

This is a hotel restaurant, but the quality is pretty good overall. We ate well and the wine was good, so I can't complain

This place is horribly managed and staffed. The kitchen is understocked, the waitstaff is so slow you'd think they were understaffed, and their managers are amateurish at best. The food is low quality, and given every other item on the already shallow and small menu was out of stock, there really wasn't much to choose from. Located in a doubletree hotel, Barbianca is basically a glorified hotel kitchen. It's not worth the price, the cost, the time, or the consideration. It's literally the worst Open Table find I've ever come across, and it's no wonder they issue 10X bonus points, the place was empty. There was only one other table that arrived well over halfway into my group's experience. I certainly won't go to this restaurant again, not even for the 20% discount coupon I got for my first time Yelp checkin. That they've also gone more than 4 hours without processing/issuing my OT points is also a concern. They clearly checked me in when I arrived. Perhaps they don't know how to use the venue side panel within the app. Bottom line: don't waste your time and money on this place, especially if you're hosting an important group meeting.

Good food at Happy Hour bargain prices. We arrived at 5:00;PM so we avoided the peak dinner crowd. Great service and good drinks. One side of the dinning room is open to a view of the pool. It reminds us some of favorite places in Honolulu.

good food, decent service, comfortable and relaxing. When we got there, there was no one to acknowledge our reservation which was a little disconcerting , but OpenTable apparently took care of that. The restaurant space is open and inviting.
