Located in downtown Barrington there is plenty of parking but we never found the "underground" parking. Service was excellent and food was great too. We were seated in the "restaurant" area and it is very loud making it difficult to hold a conversation without raised voices. My wife and brother-in-love say that the "bar" area is quieter but I don't know. We will try that next time and there will definitely be a next time.

This is one of our favorite restaurants. Have never had anything but great experiences here. Seemed like each time one of our party ordered; someone else at the table re-evaluated their selection and changed their order. The choices are really good, it would be hard to go wrong. Our Server was patient with the changes and did a great job. Everyones food was excellent and we had a great time catching up with old friends. Thanks
