Best Tapas Restaurants in Barrington

Good service, tasty appetizer and meal. Music/vocals much too loud for size of dining area.

I’ve eaten at Circe several times, with different groups of family and friends. Every time, we love every appetizer, entree, and drink. It’s an excellent restaurant. The deviled eggs and fish taco appetizers and butternut squash soup are scrumptious. Also love the lychee martini. Our server Jordan (whom I’ve been fortunate to have as our server three times) is amazing. So kind, attentive, flexible, perfectly timed with each check-in, and gracious! Jordan makes a great experience even better.

Fantastic first visit, will try very hard to come back soon (live about an hour away). Every bit of food hit the right note, chicken was crispy, hot and perfectly seasoned, drinks were varied and well made. Mac and cheese with brisket is a must ! Service was extremely courteous and attentive.

Sat at the bar, had a wonderful service! The drinks were great and the bartenders were very knowledgeable about the menu, helping my gluten free friend out with what she could have. Great experience! Only negative is that the bar seats are terribly close together so it was very hard to get in and out of the seat.

First time here. Oysters were great! All the tapas dishes we had were prepared beautifully and most importantly, delicious!! We loved everything we had. We tried the octopus, pork belly, roasted dates and tomato bread. Anastasia was our server and so very pleasant. She made us feel right at home, she made THE BEST dirty martini I have had all year. We'll be back sooner than later!
