| - My original review is noted below, but I had to circle back and give an update. Bar en Gril has become a regular haunt for my husband and I, and they have really listened and become an all-around excellent experience. The food is as consistent (and consistently great) as it gets, they now have San Tan on tap, and their staff is pleasant, friendly and professional every time.
BRAVO!
"Just visited Bar en Gril last night, and I have to say, my husband and I were very pleased with that decision.
We tried the artichoke dip, which was fresh and flavorful with delicious and fresh pita chips. I tried the Philly cheese steak and my husband an Italian combo sandwich (can't remember which one, and Bar en Gril does not yet have an online menu i can find), but they were both fantastic. The au jus I had as a side was fresh and not salty powder from a packet for once. The shoestring french fries my husband had were delicious and I felt like we were getting the quality of food we were paying for.
The music was great and my husband and i found ourselves saying "Oh I love this song" at least 5 times during the meal. The bar poured a great beer that was cooled perfectly and not too much head on it. Only two things to the folks at Bar en Gril on the beer selection:
#1 Here in the East Valley, it's all about San Tan brews, so a Devil's Ale tap would be awesome. :-)
#2 Running out of the local brew that you do have (Kilt Lifter) is not the best. It's understandable when you're just trying to hit par on your orders and feel out the crowd preference. I promise that those kegs will never go bad though- so order away!
The servers were fun and energetic. I would give Bar en Gril 5 stars (for the concept type), but there's just a couple of things that need work:
1. Servers need to watch the chit chat about side work on the restaurant floor and not "hang out" in the doorway to the kitchen when there are people eating at the table right next to the kitchen entrance. I think this will definitely resolve itself once this place gets busier and more people discover this little gem.
2. The atmosphere could use some work. The walls feel a bit bare, and the floor itself feels a bit stark. Maybe some locak Gilbert sports memerobilia or some sort of theme other than dark walls and a TV every few feet.
Overall, a GREAT first experience. I can tell from the first service, to the first and all the way through the last bite that this restaurant has great folks in the kitchen, great folks out front, and is determined to be a favorite local spot. And for my husband and I, we will DEFINITELY be making it a regular hangout and be introducing our friends to it."
