Editorial Review for Barton G – by Rick Munarriz
In Short
It's a culinary circus at promoter Barton G's eclectic masterpiece. Whether you choose the intimate outdoor patio setting or the more conventional air-conditioned dining room inside, all eyes gravitate to the table when food with flair is served. Order the lobster pop tarts and they come in an actual toaster. Go for an ice cream sundae and it comes with its own mini-fridge of toppings. Barton G. is never cheap but it's always memorable.

Insider Tips
Know Before You GoIf you've got the gut--and the pocketbook--make room and money for the $89 chocolate fountain dessert that features four pounds of bubbling chocolaty goodness and plenty of things to dip.
Save MoneyValet parking will run you $10, plus tip. Instead, take advantage of the restaurant's residential setting away from the South Beach traffic and park for free down the street.

If the $12 valet parking fee doesn't make you turn around, you should. Barton G is just an average overpriced restaurant. $28 for an martini made with Absolute Vodka is rediculous, but not as rediculous as sitting outside in a plastic chair!. I went to Barton G with the full intent on loving everything about it...was I wrong!. The presentation is Fabulous, but DO NOT let that fool you. The food is nothing more than fair. There were not celebs there the night I went...for what we paid we could have flown to LA had better food anywhere and had much better people watching. Oh and by the way, if you didn't spend enough on food and parking, there is always the $40 cup of coffee with the certificate of authenticity. That $40 just for the coffee....no alcohol included and I'm sure there is not refill. If you're looking for a great place and a good meal....stay away from Barton G.
Pros: Presention is fabulous
Cons: $12 valet parking, $28 martinis made with Absolute vodka, plastic chairs

I had a good time at this restaurant, but I will never go there again. The taste of the food and quality of service were not even close to being on par with Barton G's very high price. Though I was having a good time, we were there for over three hours. The service was mediocre and slow. While the quality of service may have sufficed at TGI Fridays, I expect better at a restaurant like this. The presentation of the meals was great. I enjoyed seeing how my meal and dessert turned out, but it was really a one-time experience. The food was not great. It was edible and of high quality, but it just didn't taste spectacular. I have had better fish at Tarpoon Bend in Coral Gables for half the price. I also really enjoyed sitting outside ,and the atmosphere of the restaurant was great. While I enjoyed my experience, the below average taste of the food was disappointing.
Pros: Ambience, Meal Presentation
Cons: Food just didn't taste that great
