Barrique Kitchen and Wine Bar has turned many heads since it opened last year. Making the list for Newsday's "Memorable places to meet for a cocktail," the extreme ambience of this week's Feed Me location places patrons in a warm, woodsy decor that feels remarkably European.
But it's not just the atmosphere that gives customers something to talk about. Menu prices are what keeps customers coming back for more. Named one of the "Top 10 affordable dining restaurants in 2009," Barrique expertly creates "small plates" perfect for sharing that keep the stomach full and the wallet fat.
Host Meredith Daniels drops by the vibrant atmosphere to try out the famous foods from chef Pierre Rougey, and get a behind-the-scenes look at how octopus ends up on many plates, becoming one of the restaurant's best sellers.
