Stumble across Red Barrel...the drinks were good and the appetizers sweet sticky chicken was decent the fries were tasty. But my pasta dish was FULL OF SALT. I couldn't finish it. My Freind and husband did the fajitas with steak, chicken and shrimp and they cleared their plates so even though this is supposed to be an Italian place stick with the Mexican cuisine. The kid meal was a good deal and my 10 year old enjoyed it but it wasn't big enough portions so we ordered too. Will I be back? No but it was an interesting experience

I always passes here and thought that it probably was really old fashioned. Well I was wrong, the place is bright yellow and the dance floor is a pretty big dance floor considering that the place is not showing its true size from the outside - impressive Polonia. I was impressed also with the fact that they decorated the heck out of this place and it was really tastefully done. The colors were bright and the place was magic for the party that was about to begin. I also must admit that the family style dinner that they serve is really good quality. Of course for being a hall, the food was really good. Since most of the time the foods served are bland. But I must admit that the pasta dish was in fact over salted. What can you do right? The rest of the dinner as well as the night was pretty nice. Parking is pretty ample, except I did notice that the girls who were serving the meal made sure as soon as you were done, the plate would be removed. Not cook, but hey they are trying to get home so I can totally appreciate the effort. Till they get a fork in their hand, than they understand.
