Barbies Resto Bar Grill

Review Summary

Barbies comes across as a lively, family friendly spot with affordable prices and promotions like free kids meals on Sundays, making it a popular choice for gatherings. Service is frequently praised for friendliness, attentiveness and efficiency, though a few experiences note longer waits during busy periods or with large groups. Food quality is mixed: many dishes are described as tasty and well prepared, with favorites like ribs, chicken and salmon highlighted, while other reports mention dryness, overcooked meat or meals not matching the price. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming and well suited for families, though the space can be noisy at times and some guests find the bar area too bright. The restaurant is valued for its generous variety and the ability to accommodate groups, and the staff's ability to manage crowds is repeatedly recognized. In short, Barbies offers a dependable, affordable option with a family vibe and solid service, but outcomes can vary by dish and visit.View restaurant profile

Review Summary

Overall, reviews for Dagwoods present a mixed picture, with several complaints about cleanliness, freshness, and portion sizes at this location, including a bleach odor inside the restaurant and lettuce that looked brown with tomatoes near spoilage. Some diners, however, enjoyed a spicy chicken sandwich that was described as mouthwatering and noted quick, well prepared service. The chatter also highlights shrinkflation, with the signature Dagwoods sandwich reportedly containing less meat than before, and a sense that quality has declined over time at this site. Observers mention that other Dagwoods locations appear to maintain higher standards. The tone varies from disappointment to satisfaction depending on the visit, with praise for fast and courteous service when time is tight and for food that is freshly made, but ongoing concern about consistency, value, and cleanliness.View restaurant profile
