What Guests Are Saying
Great food and service! Emelia served me today and was very attentive and friendly, and offered me suggestions with the dessert options. I Had the calamari with the Sangria and a Watermelon lychee mojito, which was absolutely amazing! I reccomend the mojito, very refreshing and delicious! The portioning of the sangria was phenomenal compared to other restaurants, the glass was filled up to the rim! Highly reccomend.
We enjoyed a nice dinner here on a Friday night, which was suprisingly quiet. The decor is modern and comfortable. No windows, though - you have to go down an escalator to get to the restaurant. The food and service were excellent. Dilip did a great job taking care of our large group of 8 people. My only minor complaint was that the draft beers were not as cold as they should have been. But the meals themselves were hot, fresh and delicious.
⭐☆☆☆☆ 1/5 – If I could give zero stars, I would. I came to Pickle Barrel to celebrate Thanksgiving and enjoy a nice day, but this experience completely ruined it. The restaurant is absolutely disgusting. As soon as we walked in, we noticed cutlery on the floor, garbage everywhere, and dirty napkins scattered around. The hostess seated us at one of the dirtiest tables, even though she could clearly see that it was dirty. Nobody had even bothered to wipe it down before seating us. To make matters worse, the water we were served had visible particles floating in it, which was extremely concerning. I also ordered chicken wings, only to be told they were unavailable. I came here hoping to enjoy a nice Thanksgiving meal, not to sit at a filthy table surrounded by garbage and worry about the cleanliness of the water I was drinking. The entire restaurant felt dirty and neglected. Thanksgiving is supposed to be a time to enjoy a good meal and spend quality time with the people you care about. Instead, we had to deal with disgusting conditions and disappointing service. If I could give this restaurant zero stars, I absolutely would. This level of cleanliness is unacceptable, and management seriously needs to address the hygiene standards and overall condition of this location. Customers deserve a clean table, clean floors, and clean drinking water. These are basic expectations, not luxuries. I would not recommend this restaurant based on my experience today. What a disappointing way to spend Thanksgiving!
