The Barton House of Salado -Food CA (Near Belton)

5 /5 Cat HK: Stopped here on the way home to Dallas and so glad we did. It was a Saturday, so only a brunch menu was available but it was more than good enough. My steak was cooked to perfect rawness and chicken-fried steak was crispy and flavorful. On top of delicious food, the restaurant itself was beautiful, full of old-world charm. Thank you Erik for your wonderful service and we appreciated the complimentary birthday dessert. It was a memorable meal we thoroughly enjoyed. Highly recommended.

5 /5 Modern Revolution: Service with a smile goes a long way and makes the meal taste great! This historic landmark is filled with not only a good old fashioned cozy home feel. It also has hidden locations where speakeasy fans can find a private and intimate space within the walls of history. The Rib Eye was seasoned and cooked to perfection and the calamari and Chicken was ginormous. But above all everyone here was welcoming and took time to give us a personal tour of The Barton House. With any landmark up keep is a constant but it didn’t stop us from enjoying the grounds and gardens. Located in the heart of Salado this experience is one we will certainly come back to relive.

5 /5 quinn M: From the moment we walked through the front door, the staff at The Barton House made us feel genuinely welcome. I loved that we got to choose which beautiful room we wanted to dine in — every one of them has its own charm and character. We were celebrating a birthday and anniversary, and the entire experience felt special from start to finish. I ordered the pork chops, and they were cooked to absolute perfection — juicy, flavorful, and beautifully plated. JT had the lemon piccata, which was bright, tender, and just as delicious. Our friends enjoyed their meals too, and we all couldn’t stop talking about how wonderful everything tasted. To top it all off, the crème brûlée was pure perfection — the kind of dessert that makes you close your eyes after the first bite. If you’re looking for a restaurant that delivers on atmosphere, service, and flavor, Barton House is the place. They made our celebration unforgettable

4 /5 Joe LaFerriere: Nice dining experience here with one big caveat…the first room dining area is not conducive to having a quiet or normal conversation. Met Lauren who is the manager there, very sweet lady and although we were a walk-in got us a table as they were a bit busy. Our server Lindsey got us set up with beverages and we reviewed the menu. I saw some of the appetizers go by so decided not to start there as they were huge. We ordered the Chicken Marsala and the Texas Pork Chop with add-on side salads. I’m not normally a fan of Marsala with mashed potatoes BUT this dish was delicious and the potatoes were a perfect accompaniment. The chicken nicely breaded and tender while the Marsala sauce was delicious with just the right amount of sweetness and flavor. The pork chop was grilled and charred perfectly and the bacon jelly was “WOW” when combined with the chop. Really good food, a bit higher in the price range (dinner + 1 drink/1 beer for two $100), and good service in a converted old home. Why not 5 Stars…service was a bit disjointed and slow, loud dining area, bringing out my daughters dish with mashed potatoes (pork chop dish) when we discussed over and over again gluten and dairy dietary issues and said no mashed potatoes.

5 /5 Averylle -Ave- Smith: This place has such a cute vibe!!! The decor is super cute, the customer service is impeccable, and the food and drinks are top tier! A few of us ladies went to the brunch for my Godsisters birthday and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. I had the shrimp and grits, and espresso martini style drink (I cant remember the name) and it was all sooooo good. Id go back for a special occasion for sure.
