We are outside.. Such a lovely evening. My spicy tequila drink was sooo good. Pork belly for a starter was excellent. Shrimp and grits for dinner so very tasty. No room for desert. But next time we will

We've been hoping to try this restaurant for a while. Atmosphere is nice. Our calamari was ok and scallops were undercooked, underseared, under seasoned. Our waiter was not very personable and didnt elevate our experience at all considering i let him know it was my wifes birthday. Would not go back.

This was our first time dining at the Barnwood Grill in Sandy hook. We went with our son for lunch on a Monday and were pleasantly surprised. The food, service and atmosphere were all great. The lunch specials were awesome and I've attached photos to this rating. We also had an order of the tuna tartare and it was exceptional. Highly recommend this restaurant for lunch or even better probably for dinner when in this area.

Writing this review to give accolades to the fabulous bartenders at Barnwood in Newtown. All 3 bartenders that served us in the past month have made amazing, delicious craft cocktails! See photos attached. Their professionalism and friendliness is above and beyond. One bartender even kept an eye on getting 4 seats at the bar for my party on a very busy night. Very nice selection of apps at happy hour at 20% off. For dinner, the chicken Milanese was really tasty and the lobster tacos on special were great too. Happy customer!

Beautiful atmosphere for the holidays. Went for a small family get together and asked for a quieter area and they happily placed us into a more private room towards the front which was beautiful and perfect for the occasion. Food was great. Ordered each appetizer from the menu to try all. I would only suggest to offer more chips with the tuna tartar. For the amount of tuna; the chips broke easily and it was not enough to comfortably share amongst others. Other than that I would rate them as a great local to enjoy lovely drinks and food in a super cozy atmosphere!
