It took me many visits to get to know the real Barbette. I was not happy with my first few meals there because I thought they were too simple, not enough bang for my buck. But I eventually realized that simplicity is the key to this restaurant. To put three or four excellent items on a plate is far better than loading up the dish with fancy this-and-that. You must know food and love it to appreciate the Barbette menu. If you like chain restaurants, don't go there.
Pros: location, espresso, hanger steak
