    Caramel Skillet Cookie
    Brenden B.

    Stumbled in on a whim and immediately felt like we had been missing out on something. Romantic modern gothic is the only way I can describe it. Dark beadboard walls, copper ceiling tiles, round orb lighting, and upstairs a cavernous space with soaring ceilings anchored by a stunning skylight. It is genuinely one of the most beautiful dining rooms in the area. Date night approved. One gripe before we get to the good stuff: if you have pages and pages of creative cocktails and an extensive wine list, your two mocktail options deserve the same love. We don't drink and the options were fine but very sour and clearly an afterthought. Do better for the sober and sober curious crowd. Now the food. The burrata was creamy, rich, and gorgeous sitting in olive oil topped with chimichurri and grilled bread. Needed more balsamic to bring the acid balance home, but honestly still one of the better burratas I've had locally. The stuffed pork with gouda, chimichurri, and saffron potato wedges was a genuinely smart plate. The saffron wedges were a surprise standout, bringing a clean earthiness that cut through the richness beautifully. A touch heavy on the gouda and the whole dish woke up considerably with a little extra salt, but the bones of it are excellent. The churrasco hanger steak told the same story. Well cooked, flavorful, chimichurri doing its job. The curly fries were the one shrug of the night. Not bad, just boring next to everything else on offer. Mike our server closed the deal by steering us toward the caramel skillet cookie and honestly, bless him for it. Warm, salty, sweet, rich, topped with cold vanilla ice cream and whipped cream. It is everything a skillet cookie should be and we scraped the pan. We are already planning the return visit and bringing friends. Barrel & Vine is an unexpected dining experience that Plainfield is lucky to have.

    Stuffed Pork Chop and Barrel Carbonara
    Marsha H.

    We had the brussel sprouts for our appetizer and they were so good. I had the stuffed pork chop and have never had a better pork chop-amazing! My husband had the Barrel Carbonara and he said it was so good he'd order it again (&again). Dessert was the Sticky Toffee Pudding-wow!!! Mike was our waiter and he didn't miss a beat. Loved the atmosphere. We will definitely be back!!!!

    The food was delicious, and the staff was welcoming and attentive. The restaurant is beautifully decorated. The outdoor seating is a nice touch, and my drink was refreshing and perfect for summer. A great spot that I'd happily visit again.

    Short ribs with mashed potatoes, crispy leeks, and the most delicious sauce
    Kristen D.

    This was our first time here and we really enjoyed it! Great food, service, and a really pretty place. We'll be back! Highly recommend the Greek salad, short ribs, sticky toffee pudding, and chocolate cherry old fashioned!

    Calamari

    NYE dinner was a great choice. Delicious cocktails, champagne samples, and party hats that traveled with us all night... immaculate vibes. Our waitress was attentive with great energy, and I loved that multiple staff members chimed in to hype up the steak sandwich. The food was a 10/10: flavorful steak sandwich, perfectly crunchy fries, and a sauce that wasn't overpowering. The calamari was buttery smooth on the inside and light, crispy, and golden on the outside. An amazing experience overall.

    Egg Benedict with smoked salmon
    Maggie M.

    Came here for a birthday brunch. My friend was able to make rsvp for 26 ppl (adults + kids) with no issues. The restaurant has an upstairs that is pretty big. Could probably hold a huge wedding or Shower party there. Love the decor and food was great. I think they have a coat check, but I'm not sure. The coats didn't stay well on the chairs. And can't hang your purse on the back either. I ended up putting my purse between my shoes. Had the mimosa flight and was able to try all of their flavored mimosas. They were pretty tart. But I like the strawberry lemon the most. Got the eggs Benedict with the smoked salmon. Came with a side of potatoes and peppers. Then ended with the sticky toffee pudding. Definitely recommend as it melts into your mouth. The waiters were really nice and was able to do split checks with no issues. There are street parking and a small parking lot not far from the restaurant. There were signs on the street that helped guide me to the parking lot.

    Came here to celebrate my friends birthday. We had a large group and they had the table set up before we arrived. The service was fantastic. They do not have a separate GF menu but the server indicated many items can be made GF. My friend I split the poppyseed quinoa salad and a veggie omelette with GF toast. The server confirmed there is a separate toaster and the omelette would be made in a clean pan. The food was delicious. I also ordered the mimosa sampler. They have great flavors to try. Will definitely come back!

    Poppies and quinoa salad

    Our foursome enjoyed our early dinners here Saturday evening after making a reservation that late afternoon. Our window seating in the tower made for a near private and cozy experience. Our appetizers (those Brussels sprouts!) and dinners were delicious. Even the grilled strips of chicken on my salad were flavorful. Several staff stopped to ask how we were doing and all were friendly coming and going - just watch your step entering and exiting!!!

    We recently discovered this place and have been here a few times already. It is spacious and has a nice comfortable atmosphere. Service has always been wonderful. Great spot for special occasions that's nice but not too fancy.

    Crispy calamari
    Adaora O.

    Amazing local restaurant in Downtown Plainfield with incredible service, a beautiful space, and quality drinks/food! If you remember Opera House, then you know how large this space is. The inside is absolutely beautiful. There's two floors. The first floor appears more casual, a great spot to grab a pre or post drink. The upstairs is where we were seated, in the massive dining room. Our server was on it, checking in often and made great conversation. I was most excited by the crispy calamari, mostly because it's gluten-free, and it's not often that I get to eat fried calamari. It was super good, lightly crisped, and chewy but not mushy. The short rib was slightly disappointing. The piece I received was mostly fat, but the pieces I could eat I enjoyed. The drinks were a hit as well. I can see this becoming a go to spot in the summer as well.

    Vegan options are super limited to 1 dish. Veggie skillet with basicly just oil and nothing else on…read moreit (no egg etc). Do I mind? No I have ate TONS of breakfast places and had only veggies heated up honestly. I can name 6 places in orland, Bolingbrook, Naperville, Joliet, romeoville, I can eat just "veggie skillet no egg, no cheese" and it taste just fine. Ordered it and after few bites did not taste fresh, in fact tasted dry? And frozen. I got almost sick IMMEDIATELY. Mind you I paid " like "$20+" for this. My stomach was so messed up, I wanted to Vomit. Also note my boyfriend ordered Cheesey Egg Omelette, and also refused to eat it after 4 bites. it's not just my meal. Maybe what we ordered was just not the freshest veggie, or egg, or cheese, or... ? I don't know what the heck happened but $47 down the drain. 3 bites each. We asked for a check and walked out. I hate to leave a bad review but atleast the $5 strawberry juice, which was you know... not really fresh or juice was just flavored water, no sugar, was decent. ALSO, my boyfriend did like the pancakes. So... just order the pancakes Service was alright. Ambiance was alright. Food, personally I wouldn't come back. Even if you paid me. My stomach hurt so bad. The place looks nice tho, and lots of options, just don't take anyone who you love there, maybe an enemy.

    Found out about this breakfast and lunch cafe in Crest Hill. It certainly isn't a fancy place from…read morethe looks of it. Morning Delight Cafe is a typical local restaurant with a slightly better than a diner environment going on. A lot of the usual type of stuff you can get. There's omelets as well as salads and sandwiches. Coming in here at lunch it was pretty busy. It's usually a good sign. This was also the weekend. A kind of fusion cuisine. There was a mixture of American and Mexican. At lunch it gets better. It's about $12 for a sandwich or wrap. She had the Vegetable Panini. This has broccoli, mozzarella, mushrooms, onions, red peppers, and spinach. Basic. I had the Veggie Wrap. A pretty standard one to be honest. This comes with broccoli, mozzarella which I left off, mushrooms, onions, red peppers, spinach, and tomatoes. It was bigger than expected. The vegetables tasted pretty basic and weren't anything special. Comes with choice of a side, and I got it with fruit. This was fresh at least. Good place that's got basic items. It's open at breakfast and lunch. This is in the plaza at Caton Farm and Plainfield.

    Stumbled upon this place before a full day of errands and it was exactly what we needed…read more Morning Delight is a true diner. Country esque charm, good service, generous portions, and prices that make you feel like you are getting away with something. No frills, no pretension, just solid breakfast food in a cozy setting. My partner got the standard diner breakfast plate, eggs, hash browns, pancakes, and bacon, and walked away happy. The hash browns were a touch under-seasoned but a quick hit of salt at the table solved that immediately. I went with the country skillet which landed in the same camp. Solid, filling, and again just needing a little more seasoning to really shine. The one miss for us was the biscuits and gravy. Not bad, but not memorable either. The gravy needed more seasoning and personally I want my gravy boldly peppered and this one played it too safe. Probably won't revisit that dish but everything else on the table earned its place. Portions are generous, prices are beyond reasonable, and the service kept things moving without feeling rushed. This is not a destination restaurant and it does not need to be. It is a dependable neighborhood diner that delivers exactly what it promises. Sometimes that is everything you need on a busy Saturday morning. We will be back.

I was sat immediately and my waitress took my order as soon as I was ready. Both the hostess and waitress were friendly and competent. Even the silverware was basically spotless. Unfortunately that's where the good news ends. I ordered the steak skillet with diced jalapeños. When it arrived it looked fine. The scrambled eggs were fluffy and inviting. When I took my first forkful it went downhill fast. The steak was cut into unappetizing kibble sized pieces. After eating a few bites I encountered my one and only sizeable piece of green pepper. Curious I took the eggs off the top of the rest of the skillet and then lost my appetite. Before me was a brown mess of ingredients. I order meals with a healthy amount of freshies in order to have something fresh and not too heavy, fatty or greasy. This was all of those. I finished the eggs and pushed brown pile away. SUCH A GOOD START! wasted by poor food. A note about the back of house management: there was a lot of standing around. The white guy with the white hair whom I took to be the owner had a look on his face like he just didn't wanna be there.
