We had the pleasure of having our wedding reception here. The food was amazing, the decor was beautiful, the staff was easy to work with and made sure every detail was taken care! thank you so much for making our day stress free and beautiful!

I came here last month with a group of 30 people. I called ahead and got everything handled with them. Since I knew I was coming with a large group, I asked if I could drop off our menu ahead of time so we don't have any confusion about what we ordered. Red barrel went above and beyond for us. I complimented the staff all night long because of how easy and smooth our dinner went. They sat us in two groups of 15. They called out our number and passed out the food in a timely manner. We had refills for all the soft drinks. The appetizers were sharing sizes. The food was amazing and everyone in my group finished their food. Thank you Red Barrel for having us!

We went on Friday evening. They have kareoke night starting at 9 pm on Friday. It made for a great atmosphere. I ordered the chicken cordon bleu and I would order again. I started with a martini and it almost tasted like a jolly rancher and for a girl who hates tasting the alcohol in drinks this was perfect. I ended the night with an espresso martini and it was also delicious. The staff was also nice and fast. Did a great job of clearing the tables as soon as food or drinks were done.

Great restaurant,Exellent service,best old fashioned drink in south Chicago .over all is the my favorite spot in the south midway Chicago.

We just held a Birthday and Anniversary celebration this past Saturday 4/27/2024 in the party/banquet room of the Red Barrel Restaurant on Archer Ave. The room was beautifully decorated -simple but elegant which was what we wanted. The food was excellent and the staff was not only courteous but went out of their way to help us. They provided extra plates for dessert, served the buffet dinner to us and all of our guests. The bar worked out great and we thought that the price was very reasonable. We worked with Patti for this celebration and she was always easy to get a hold of - reruned calls promptly and since we were new at "pary planning" she gave up some tips and made some good suggestions. Our party was a great success and we have many memories that will last forever! Thanks Red Barrel and your greaat staff! Linda F.

Everything was okay, just a heads up if you plan on ordering chicken tortilla soup. I ordered Chicken Tortilla soups and got a version of tomato soup ? With teeny bits of chopped chicken and a pinch of tortilla strips? It wasn't bad but definitely not traditional tortilla soup. They were nice enough to switch it out for another soups.

Upon stepping inside, you are greeted by a warm and inviting ambiance, adorned with wooden accents, cozy lighting, and rustic decor that exudes a welcoming and comforting atmosphere. The restaurant's rustic look adds a touch of charm and authenticity to the dining experience. The menu at Red Barrel Restaurant offers a diverse selection of dishes that cater to various tastes. One dish that truly stood out was the Chicken Cordon Bleu. Stuffed with spinach, ham, and mozzarella, this culinary creation was a delightful blend of flavors. The chicken was perfectly cooked, tender and juicy, while the combination of the stuffing ingredients added a delectable richness to each bite. Served alongside veggies, mashed potatoes, and a touch of rosemary glaze, the dish was a harmonious symphony of tastes that left me thoroughly satisfied. Another highlight of the menu was the Pork Chop Porterhouse. This dish featured a succulent pork chop served with Yukon potatoes, candied bacon, Brussels sprouts, and a tantalizing honey mustard glaze. The ambiance and quality of the food are well-matched by the reasonable prices at Red Barrel Restaurant. It offers great value for the dining experience it provides, making it an excellent choice for those seeking a memorable meal without breaking the bank. Red Barrel Restaurant in Chicago exceeded my expectations in every aspect. From the inviting atmosphere to the delicious cuisine and outstanding service, it is a gem worth visiting.

Finally made it here! I'm mad at myself for not getting here sooner! The food here is next level. The staff was very friendly, good service and knew the menu well. I can't wait to go back. There are so many yummy things on the menu it was hard to pick. I had the chicken tortilla soup which was mind blowing delicious. Then I had the Cajun Linguine.....so good and huge portion. My husband was home and jealous I was here so I got him the soup and spaghetti and meatballs. The meatballs were right up there, just melted in your mouth. Close to the airport too.
