This is the best place for a total experience. The atmosphere is amazing. The owner does everything and makes everything special for you and your guest. Parfait is one of a kind chef, wine expert and great human being. Everything dish was tasty and different. We had a cheese and meat plate, salad, pizza and pasta, shared by all of us and everyone was happy and content. The wine selection is hand picked by owner and reasonably priced and excellent in quality. If you haven’t experienced barrell 33 you are missing out. We go as often as we can as this is truly a dinner experience and makes you relax and enjoy life as we all should. Thank you Parifait! We love you for being true and real.

Lovely place. The food is amazing! The owner is wonderful and attentive. It is an intimate setting. It is a slower paced place since it is smaller, so plan on taking your time here and enjoy your night!

What an amazing dining experience. The owner, Parfait is a fantastic and gracious host. The food was delicious. We decided to order family style, so we could try lots of dishes. We got the cheese plate to start, then the Barrel 33 salad and pizza, and a smoked salmon pene. So good!

Let me start off with the obvious: this place is not cheap. 1 appetizer, 2 mains, dessert, wine, tax, dessert … almost $200. IT IS WORTH IT. The food is superb and not oversized servings. The patio setting is fantastic (it could use more regular tables instead of low/benches for plating). And the owner takes extreme pride in serving and getting to know every guest. There is no rushed feeling; in fact, it is the opposite. No one under 21 allowed (so no kids); fantastic for date night or small groups. Parking can be hard to find. Reservations REQUIRED.

OMG what an amazing restaurant and experience. The owner Parfait welcomes you and makes you feel so welcome that you leave feeling as a you are departing from a dear friend’s house.
The food was so above and beyond! We started with the Canard Pate and a French wine. I have not had that wonderful a pate since my time in France. The Barrel 33 Salad was just what I love with nuts, fruit and vinegarette.
We both had pasta. I had the Russian Penne and my wife had the White and Blue Penne. Both were great with a lot of flavor layers. The pasta was cooked perfectly.
To finish we had the Petite Fantasy. Chocolate overload in the best way possible. What was great was that we were joking with Parait about my wife’s love for whipped cream. 5 mins later after the dessert, he brought her a bowl of whipped cream, just for her! Very nice!
Overall, there is no substitute for quality and Parfait and the Barrel 33 restaurant are the best quality! Oh and the French music was cool too!

Ran across this cute little place by accident and so glad we did! The owner was superb in his recommendations on wine, creating an atmosphere of family. The garden area was absolutely beautiful. An oasis! The food…..sublime! We couldn’t have asked for a better evening out! Thank you!!!

I made a reservation here to celebrate an anniversary with my GF. I called the day of, in the morning, and left a voicemail. The owner called me back within a couple hours and was able to give us accommodations. He was pleasant and professional over the phone.
We were running 30mins behind our reservation time. I called and spoke to the owner and he told us no problem. We really appreciated this because it’s a small venue with not too many tables.
When we arrived the owner greeted us at the entrance and brought us to our table. The tables are outside in a patio area. It’s decorated rustic and is a romantic setting.
We started with the Fromage & Charcuterie and a bottle of Rosè and they were phenomenal. The owner (who is also a chef) brought us the board with some special cheeses and they were all delightful.
For dinner we ordered the Sausage & Peppers pasta and The Barbecue Chicken pizza. Both dishes were amazing. The pasta is slightly spicy but nothing too crazy, perfect level of spice. The pizza was light and fresh.
All in all I give this place 10/10 and we would definitely come back for a special occasion.

What a rare treat. A great little spot with wonderful character, food and service. The gifted owner and host, Parfait, fully deserves his real French name (translates to Perfect). So refreshing to see his smile and attention to every detail for a superb experience, while purposefully keeping his restaurant small to ensure personal attention and superior food. The garlic bread and our salad and pasta were excellent. Great little wine list. Most surprisingly, prices are MUCH lower than I would expect and Barrel 33 could charge.

This is an absolutely gorgeous little place. This quaint little garden doubles as a restaurant and the food and service are incredible. We had such a great time with the owner/waiter. He was such a great personality. Don’t miss this place when you’re in town!

The place is gorgeous. Ambience is nice. Location is nice and close to the beach. On the other hand, the service is bad. The owner is the only one that was working besides the cook. He needs to hire more help. I was hoping to have a lovely dinner with my wife but we ended up just having an appetizer, which was great but I was really looking forward to dinner and desert. When I flagged the owner down, he asked, “do you want the check?” He told me earlier he would just take my appetizer order and we click order food later so he knew we wanted dinner. We have been there for two hours already and only had water and bread and cheese. We left and went to Chick fil A. I was very disappointed and wanted to love this place. While the food we had was great the service was very poor. Thr brightside, my wife and I had a great time talking to one another!
