My husband and I took a trip to downtown Gastonia to celebrate a special occasion and made a point to try the restaurant.
We did not leave disappointed but left fully satisfied. The July special menu consisted of four course curated meal with a mix of land and sea. From presentation to the most important, taste, the whole experience was satisfying. I must say our server added to the welcoming atmosphere.
When you visit, get over the bland lobby entry way, however you want to call it and come to Barrister to taste the culinary art of fine dining.

10/10 all the way across the board. I’ve tried several menu items. Not one single disappointment! Lunch dinner and dessert are all impressive. Plus the staff is amazing! Barrister’s is a must try when in Gastonia!!!

WOW!! From the service to the fabulously delightful fall menu – I cannot say enough about this wonderful place. Great vibes. Would be a perfect date night spot – food is top notch NYC quality with very reasonable prices. Highly recommend. Don’t miss your chance!! Pumpkin soup, fried goat cheese, blackened chicken and white chocolate dessert – everything was delightful. Xoxo

This restaurant is located inside of the historic Esquire Hotel in downtown Gastonia.
Very charming with so much character.
The food is amazing, and I love the selection. From chicken to steak, pasta, and more… you can’t go wrong with whatever you choose.
The cocktails are delectable too.
There is also outdoor patio and rooftop seating when the temps are right.
I love all of the history it holds inside of these walls!

Beautiful old historic bank turned restaurant. We loved the food and the atmosphere but the highlight was the service. Taylor was an outstanding waiter. The dairy free piña colada pudding was the bomb! Thank you for making our anniversary a good one to remember.

I brought my wife here for her birthday. All of the food was excellent with the beautifully renovated aesthetics you may expect when you see it from outside. They have a great selection of bourbon and wine, and the old fashioned was well crafted. We’ll be back again. Thanks for a great dinner!

We tried this restaurant because it was Queens Feast and it was a place we hadn’t tried before. I didn’t love the main dish options but we gave it a try anyway. I am so glad we did! The food was delicious and the portions were generous. Our server Charlie was attentive but not obtrusive. The restaurant was cool and they have a nice outdoor space as well as a rooftop to hangout on with gorgeous views.

Went for my mother’s 71st birthday, was blown away by the food such as the brussel sprouts which I’ve never been one to eat, but they were delicious and something that everyone should try…..the bread and butter board, North Carolina mushroom medley, several different salads and my mom got the salmon, to wit, everything was cooked to perfection and was utterly incredible and then don’t even get me started about desserts. Good Lawd! The s’mores creme brulee and key lime pie are sublime. 11 out of 10 would recommend! And not lastly, but I should have brought this up to begin with. The service wasn’t packable. My server was very friendly, knowledgeable, helpful, and from what I saw very good at her position with her clearing of the tables properly and proper carry through the door to the kitchen.
All in all, that was a wonderful experience and barristers needs to be on everyone’s list to attend in Gastonia

Charming, lovely, quiet atmosphere. Came for appetizers and drinks!! The Blackened Chicken Dip and Crispy Brussels were the star of the appetizers. Would definitely recommend for a date night.

We dined on the patio yesterday evening with a lovely lady by the name of Kayla H. She made the experience go from a 10, to a 100! She was AMAZING! She was very knowledgeable of the menu, and gave some very lovely recommendations of what to try. The food was delicious, and the service was excellent! The atmosphere on the patio was very pleasant!
