What User likes about The Barrel Thief:
Even though the menu is limited, this restaurant offers surprisingly delicious vegan choices. I tried the nuts, arugula salad, and gnocchi, all of which were very good. However, the Brussels sprouts with apple slaw and breadcrumbs were exceptional - a perfect 10/10. The cocktail menu was also impressive! View all feedback. What Sara S doesn't like about The Barrel Thief:
Very expensive for what you are paying for. The food was okay and the drinks were very small and not that great. The service was also very slow, and our waitress didn't seem to know the menu. Our gnocchi was not very flavorful and Brussels sprouts were super undercooked. I would recommend a few other surrounding restaurants before recommending the Barrel Thief to anyone.

Pretty good. Like most paved it was a bit pricey but the drinks were ok. The squash was lovely but I hated the wild rice. Nice spot.
