I really enjoyed Barrington's the only time I've visited. The dining room is TINY to say the least and you obviously must have a reservation. My date and I brought our own bottle of wine, which was decanted and gladly served by our server. My date complained a bit that he thought our server was a tad too stuffy but I personally think he was just being picky.
From what I remember, the food was pretty excellent and the ambiance was very nice and romantic. This would probably not be the place to go wearing your casual duds. I wore a dress while my date wore a jacket and slacks. I had heard people rave about this restaurant but I would like to go back just one more time to get the full effect. Barrington's almost reminded me of Passion8 Bistro down in South Carolina, although, I would prefer to return to Passion8 Bistro because of their awesome food.
I think Barrington's is a great restaurant for a special date night because of it's quiet and quaint atmosphere and attentive service. The experience will definitely leave you feeling pampered... and the money you spend will be relative to that treatment. But totally worth it for that special occasion!
