Scotty Browns Barkley Village

We continue to love Scotty Brown's. It is a nice, upscale, neighborhood place for us. We came by on a bustling Tuesday evening, we were promptly seated inside. Our server was very pleasant and provided good service. The place with filled with movie goers dressed to attend the Barbie movie, made for a fun atmosphere.I had a Cowboy Salad with Chicken and my companion had a Cowboy Salad with Fish Tacos. Both dishes were well prepared and arrived quickly. We love the Cowboy salad with it's like dressing, different salad mixings (including edamame, corn, black beans, walnuts, dates). It's light and nothing over powers the salad, it's just light with nice variation of textures and flavors.Another favorite is a bellini, a go to on the menu. This time it was served in a stemmed martini glass, out of the ordinary. But the drink was still tasty (peach slush with sangria, white rum and sparkling wine).

The look of this restaurant is the only good thing about it. The drinks were weak, the food was Applebee's quality, so not the worst I've had, but nowhere near what I would call "good." The price for this mediocre meal was also outrageous. The staff were all talking to one another and ignoring the tables. We won't be back

I adore the sophisticated ambiance of this establishment--it exudes a high-end and refined atmosphere. The food, notably the blackened chicken Caesar, is of excellent quality and quite delectable. However, I must mention that the blackened chicken, while well-prepared, was a bit charred and spicy for my taste. If you enjoy a charred and spicy flavor profile, you'd likely appreciate it more than I did.

We checked out Scotty Brown's last Friday for a late lunch. The vibe of this place is pretty cool and the whole restaurant feels very open and breezy, I was really digging the open windows for the inner section of the restaurant. The wait staff was attentive and our food came out pretty quickly. I ordered the half-portion of the blackened chicken fettucine alfredo and thought it was excellent. Not so charred that it was miserable to eat and the seasoning was perfect. I deducted a star in this rating because I feel like everything on the menu, while tasty, was a little over-priced for what it was. Apart from that, we had a good experience and we'll be back from time to time.

The atmosphere is cool. Like a movie. The nachos were pretty good. i enjoyed an ipa, and my hubby, the blackberry cider. We both had two of each. Hubby did not care so much for the nachos. And the roasted tomato salsa was extremely small, like bite size. Kinda ridiculous. Needed more sour cream on the side and lower layered cheese. Service was quiet.

My family and I ended up at Scotty Brown's because the wait at Lombardi's was too long. So it was an unexpected visit, but we thought it would work out because of the variety on the menu. Well, first we were kicked outside to wait for our table. It was chilly and my kids were cold. A waitress came up and said her manager said we weren't allowed to wait in the restaurant and that we needed to move. Then, when we were seated, there was no printed kids' menu. No burger on the kids menu so forced to get a $19 burger for a 6 year old (which was charred and unevenly seasoned)I was already feeling frustrated at how long it took our waitress to even come to our table so we could find out what was on the kids menu after I was dismissed at the hostess stand. And then I still had to ask for the prices. On the upside, we shared the dragon bowl and it was delicious - only redeeming aspect of the night. It's a great, cozy place for a date night or girls night out. I've been here before without kids and it's been great, but definitely a poor choice as a family outing.

Met here with a friendThat was a mistakeFish and chipsOverpriced and nothing specialLast time we will go here

The food is great. We've always had a wonderful experience but tonight we ordered chicken lettuce wraps to go, and the lettuce was thrown in with the sauce, and it turned into a soggy mess for the lettuce. My recommendation for next time would be to wrap the lettuce separately, so it remains fresh, especially on a to go item. We will still go back. I am sure it was just an off night and someone forgot..

The food is nice, the drinks are great, the staff are kind. But, and I will probably get in trouble for this review since a few family and friends like to go here, they are not a great company. I worked in the food industry for 15 years at some great restaurants in Los Angeles and never came across a company with such little regard for their customers. The first time we went there we were surprised to find out that they didn't have a changing table for parents in any bathroom, and even more surprised to find out that it was a conscious decision by management to not have them even though there were multiple request by customers. Had to change my daughters diaper on the car seat, that was fun. Went again this evening while visiting family, 39 degrees and raining, they told our party to wait outside (15 minute wait, half full restaurant), no heaters, or in the car because it is company policy to not have people waiting for their table. We have a 3 month old so I stayed by the door with our car seat to keep him warm while we waited, thinking no human would say take a 3 month old into the cold. The other 7 of our party went outside to follow their policy. The hostess followed up by asking me to take the baby back to our car to wait, after saying I won't make him wait in the cold. The best part of the evening was watching a table of guest leave the restaurant, the table sat dirty and uncleared for 20 minutes, my wife watched and timed it, and then we were sat at the same table. I like the food and drinks, and the staff, other than the gentlemen who said I should take my 3 month back into the cold or to sit in my car, are very nice. But, clearly who ever is running this company is forgetting the people who make it so successful. Craziest thing about it, aside from the bar, it was prob 90% families with kids sitting at the tables. I like this place, and it is a bummer to give it a bad review, but you definitely need to do better.

We went out to Scotty Browns for a family dinner, and we had a very pleasant evening. Although it was a weekday, I made a reservation online to be safe. I also called them later and requested a table on the patio. We were seated at a very nice comfortable booth on the patio. Our waitress was very accommodating. I ordered a glass of Pinot Noir, which tasted old. She was willing to let me get different. My girlfriend could not decide between two different wine, and the waitress brought her samples to try. Good old restaurant service!We shared Crispy Calamari (picture). It was not as oily because it's just dusted with flour. The dusted and fried sliced jalapeños were a great touch. I ordered the Butcher's Block Burger, featuring maple peppercorn bacon on top of a juicy patty (picture). At my son's request, I went with a side of yam fries ($2.75 up charge). My girlfriend ordered the Smokehouse Burger with a "gluten friendly bun" ($2.75 up charge). My 16-year old son went with the healthiest option: potato crusted cod bowl (picture). We all enjoyed our food. The service was solid. The only complaint I have is the $2.75 charge for little substitutions. Otherwise, we had a really great time and left the restaurant full and happy!
