  • This place frustrates me. They have great cocktails -- strong, creative, and delicious -- and the food is really good, too. Chandler is definitely in need of this type of restaurant but I've had less than amazing experiences each time that I've been. I let the first one slide; it was right after they had opened and I just figured that the staff, our waiter specifically, just needed some time to get used to things. He was super nice anyway. My second experience was with Tracey K., whose review was posted on 5/18/13. My husband and I last visited Barrelhouse on Friday, 11/15/13. We made a reservation and were seated in the bar area right away. I don't prefer high-tops, especially because they always tend to be wobbly and this table was no exception, but it was alright. We ordered some drinks and the olive bowl. When the appetizer came out, we noticed that the grilled crostini was missing. We've both worked in the service industry and always make a point to be as polite and understanding as possible. We thought, for a moment, that we had confused the olive bowl description with another that we had considered ordering. Our waitress passed by and my husband asked if the olive bowl was supposed to come with grilled crostini or not. Her response was, "It doesn't usually but I can bring you some" which was said in a mostly unfriendly tone. My husband said, "Oh, that's alright. We just thought that it did." She said that it was okay and left. She came back with three little crostini (it looked normal rather than grilled, just as a side-note). By that point, we no longer had our menus so we couldn't confirm until afterward that the dish is described as being served with grilled crostini. I wish I could effectively describe how awkward our waitress made us feel. It's like when you ask someone something like, "Is it okay if I put this here?" and they respond with, "Ugh," *eyeroll* "I guess..." I had a hard time deciding what to eat for dinner. I didn't want to get anything that I had tried before and had narrowed my choices down to the goat cheese crepes and the potato and leek pizza (minus bacon). I decided on the crepes (as much as I adore leeks, I REALLY adore goat cheese). Shortly after our orders were placed, the owner, who I think is very nice, came by and told me that they were out of crepes for the night. I assumed it was fate and went for the leek pizza, which he had also recommended. When our entrees came out, mine was the goat cheese crepes. I had mixed feelings about it because I had already started looking forward to the potato and leek pizza. Luckily, the crepes were fantastic so I didn't feel like I had missed out on anything. When it comes down to it, I'm pretty handy in the kitchen and would rather make goat cheese crepes and interesting cocktails at home than spend $72 for strange service. I feel like spending that much for a two-person meal should guarantee that service is nothing short of fabulous. Hell, we've had better service during a $7 two-person meal at Lee's Sandwiches! I might test things out in the future, but only for drinks. I'm not a gambler and would prefer to pay $50+ for a "sure thing." Additional side-note: This place is rather chilly. In general, I think most people are warmer than I am anyway but I had a thick cardigan on and was super cold.
