Barnabys of Northbrook

Arriving at the restaurant at 8:30 p,m. monday night Aug, 2, 2010.\t\n\t\nWe had a party of 10 people including 2 children, 3 out of country guests of which 1 was lactose intollerant adult. \t\nMeantime, it took several individuals at the facility to tell us the closing time.\t\n\t\nMy wife & I proceeded to the counter to place the order. While discussing what to orderwe concluded with 2 lrg & 1 sm pizzas. To accomodate the kids & adult, we had requested the manager taking the order they could not put cheese on half of the lagre pizza's. He replied "NO, since the cheese could run to the other side". That made absolutely no sense. Then we decided to make the small pizza cheeseless but it needed to be spicy but again he refused to do so.\t\n\t\nThe manager the exclaimed to us we had to eat the way they made the pizza or leave...WHAT??\t\n\t\nThe ordering turned into a quarrel, myself explaining that we also own a pizzeria for 10 years (which we recent ly closed)...so he states then go eat at your place & you can have it the way you want.\t\n\t\nStill proceeding to pay - I drop the money on the counter top.\t\nFollowed by additional insults by the manager by telling us we're holdinghim from attending to others. We were the only ones.\t\n\t\nEventually, he refused to provide service to us so we left.\t\n\t\nThe manager - possibly owner is a racist.\t\n\t\nWe're following up with a complaint to the Village of Northbrook. ...read more

The food at this Barnaby's is the best. I love the potato skins and the french onion soup. The pizza cannot be beat for thin crust. While the restaurant is hectic, the one in Niles is even crazier - AND WONDERFUL. Bring the kids and they can laugh and visit and walk around and be loud and HAVE FUN. Barnaby's is not for a romantic dinner. I love all of the Barnaby's for their relaxed, fun atmosphere and Fantastic pizza! ...read more
