"A train stopped traffic the other night. We sat in the line of cars for what seemed like an hour but I bet it was 20min. While we sat in traffic, hunger set in and we pulled up Google Maps to see what was around. Since we don 't get to that part of Houston often, we decided to pick a place that wasn 't a big name like Schlotzsky 's or IHOP. We settled on Barnaby 's. While it wasn 't the easiest place to get to, that 's normal for Houston. Cool little corner spot in a shopping center with large glass windows, very inviting restaurant. The staff was friendly and the atmosphere jolly, Christmas music playing in the background. First thing we noticed, the menu options are standard fare. Most every dish has some twist of flare that made it unique to Barnaby 's. Pricing was not bad considering location and quality of the food. We ordered: Pesto Chicken Salad Sandwich Turkey w/ Cranberry mayo Macaroni and cheese from the adult menu (on recommendation) We ate every bit of the food that came out! The Mac and cheese had a smokey Gouda and omg it was the best I 've ever had! The pesto in the chicken sandwich was subtle and gave the chicken depth and dynamic I wasn 't expecting. And the turkey sandwich was what you expect Your post thanksgiving sandwiches to taste like But never do. Very tasty. Very comforting. All in all, I loved Barnaby 's and I bet you would too! Should I get back to that side of Houston, I will definitely be eating at Barnaby 's again!"

"My husband requested that I take him, our children and my in-laws here for Father’s Day. So we made a reservation. On the way he raved to his parents about how good the food is and how much they’ll love the cod. We were seated relatively fast though 15 minutes past our reservation time. We all ordered the fried cod platter. Then the children had kids meals. Then we proceeded to wait over a full hour for our food. When it was eventually brought out two cod platters were cold. One “4 piece cod platter” had 3 pieces. One kid’s meal was cold. We let the server know. She said she’d have it remade and took the cold meals away. Then quickly brought out the cod platters again in less than 5 min. I’m guessing they just refried the fish because it was hard, and saturated in grease. The entire bottom of my plate was covered in a thick layer of grease. We didn’t have time to ask for better because half the table was halfway done with their meal already. We had to ask 2 more times for the missing piece of fish. My husband had to ask 3 times for tartar sauce because instead of bringing enough for the table of people eating fish they’d bring one little half filled cup on a plate every time. I understand it was busy and we were patient in waiting the amount of time we did. The food and service were not acceptable and it was a disappointing Father’s Day dinner out. So we left with our in laws thanking us for a meal they didn’t enjoy and us feeling let down by a place we had previously had a good experiences. I felt like we were begging for proper food and service. Not even including the tip I spent $121 on this mess. So unfortunately they’ve lost customers now. I’d have to say I will not recommend."
