The food at the Barrington Country Bistro is excellent. The menu changes and although it has a French Flair, it is not just French dishes. The last time we went, the 6 of us were early and although we could have been seated, we decided to have a cocktail at the Bar. It was the highlight of the evening. The... More

The food at this restaurant is some of the best you will find in the suburbs of Chicago. The service is also stellar. This is truly a French style restaurant, but it is not overly expensive. My wife and I both highly recommend this place. The menu changes so you always seem to find something new and it doesn't much... More

The BCC hosted a wine dinner featuring small production Oregon wines. The pairings were masterful. Just two examples: Coconut crusted Prawn with a white wine in the style of the southern Rhone, osso-bucco style game hen with duck--liver walnut filling matched with a Pinot Noir and also a Sauv-based bordeaux blend. The wines from Alexandria Nicole and River's Edge sold... More

Once again a terrific meal and experience. The service, atmosphere and food are beyond wonderful. This is the second time my husband and I have dined here and we can't wait to go back again. It was our anniversary and this was the best place to celebrate.

I was really surprised by the great reviews. We had an ok experience but it certainly was not excellent. The serano ham salad was excellent but the lobster bisque was heavy-handed and did not have any pieces of lobster. The entrees were not very good. The duck was not crispy - just fatty and the meat was hard to cut... More

Just a great place. Food is always wonderful. I have a food allergy and they are always accommodating. Menus have great variety and specials are always wonderful.

I have been coming to BCB for more than ten years now. Wether it is a business lunch, a romantic dinner for my wife and I or a celebration dinner with a large party BCB always knocks the ball out of the park every time. There isn't anything you can order on this menu that won't be the best of... More

The Barrington Country Bistro just keeps getting better and better. We regularly enjoy this restaurant, maybe 5 or 6 times a year. We had a reason to celebrate and were off to dinner this past Friday night. Everything was outstanding. We tried some new dishes (crab cakes on a bed of olives) and said to the server, "keep this on... More

we drove past the bistro at 2:00 - just when they close after lunch before dinner. They graciously stayed and made us a wonderful lunch - salad, wine, great pate and desert. And they served it in a relaxed and friendly manner - not rushing us in the slightest even though they should be closing. Everything was delicious - my... More
