| - An uber traditional steak house if there ever was one, from the dark wooden interior to the old school waiters, you can tell this place has been around for awhile. The one thing unique about this place is their wine selection. I believe they have one of that largest selections in the city and you can tell their cellar is well stocked by the massive wine menu they offer. The service was pretty quick, and I liked the pickled vegetables that came with our bread. My party started off with a Caesar salad, which was meh - very standard and neither great or bad. We also tried the french onion soup, which for my taste was too salty, but did have a good amount of cheese on top. However, if you're coming here, you're most likely coming to try the steak - which was very underwhelming. The steaks were seasoned ok, but came out more well done than ordered. When we mentioned this to the server he looked perplexed and tried to convince us that that's how we ordered it. We've had plenty of steaks before and can tell the difference between a rare vs medium rare. The steak came with a baked potato, which was nice and probably the highlight of the meal (at a steakhouse no less). There are many steak houses around the city, and I would definitely recommend others over Barbarians (especially Jacobs, even if you have to spend a little more).
