    Best in area, awesome food & wait staff. Delicious salads, don't buy full size unless taking leftovers home! But... the raucous shrieking of a large group ruined our visit. Pity.

    Probably the fastest and friendliest service of all the Barnaby's locations. Very accommodating w kids. Lots of good options, but the Sausalito salad and chicken tinga quesadillas are among the best.

    The food is the same as the other Barnaby's outposts, with twists on traditional sandwiches & salads: pesto chicken sandwich with artichoke hearts, the turkey breast with cranberry mayo, and more. Read more

    Great burger place that features Homemade Meat Lasagna and Doctor Gales Meatloaf. I sampled a Texas size serving of the Lasagna that I could not finish. Nice little cafe🌟🌟🌟🌟

    The buffalo burger was fantastic! A little pricy at $15, but worth it. Make no mistake - it's huge and served with a mountain of fries.

    Try their classic Cobb salad! It has the proteins, the vegetables and there's some cheese to bind it all together makes this salad eat like a meal.

    This is the original Barnaby's - it's so adorable. If you eat here, I recommend the buffalo burger with feta cheese or the club sandwich. Their fries are delicious.

    I'm the Mayor. Waiting list is not on patio. Whoever that was doesn't know what they are talking about. Come to the front counter and it USUALLY moves fast!

    No matter how you order your burger done, the grill cook will put a press on it to dry it out and serve it well done.

    The chicken burrito is actually TWO giant burritos, definitely big enough to split one order. My friend and I got hustled.

    I disagree with review about steak. Is it a steak from Vic & Anthony's no, but is very good. I just ate one yesterday and I am the mayor so I eat here often.

    Whatever you order, don't forget to get the orange juice! It's freshy squeezed and comes from a unique machine. It's served in a small cup, but don't worry you'll get a refill!

    This is what you need: potatoes, applewood sausage, and fresh squeezed OJ. You'll be set and so happy.
