I used to love the Pickle Barrel, but my tastes have either drastically changed or it's gone way, way downhill. Even still, I used to frequent this location for a few months in the summer of 2012 - the only reason was really because they were in my neighbourhood, and had a new (and delicious) Rose Reisman designed gluten-free menu (including rice pastas and GF bread!). Sadly, that menu was scrapped a few months ago, and the servers tried to tell me it was "years" old (and weren't really helpful in knowing whether other items contained gluten or not).
I do like their giant bellini's, the view of the street from certain booths/tables, and the mini desserts (though most are not gluten-free).
