Very delicious food. Dauphinoise potato was to die for! Service was also excellent. We also had a hard time deciding the wine from the extensive list, but settled on just the right one. We will be back!

Excellent restaurant. Staff, food and atmosphere are brilliant. Never disappointed. The best place to enjoy a relaxing evening with friends and family. Variety in choice of dishes at an affordable price, beautifully presented, ensures my recommendation to anyone who wants a great time.

Excellent service, with just the right amount of attention. Good varied menu. Food presented well. We have been there many times over the years and will go again. Like the 'French' touch. Accordian player rather annoying.

High quality and good value food (£27 for two courses), served pretty quickly and well. Good table layouts. Teeters on the brink of some mildly pretentious behaviour towards strangers, then relaxes. Very drinkable house white wine. Kind about bad French.

Booked for my wife's birthday, the food tasted great and at a reasonable price. The restaurant has a warm cosy atmosphere with fantastic service drink prices a little high but worth it.

As always, the service was wonderful, and our orders were taken and aperitifs brought within minutes of arriving. The basic layout of the menu never changes, and a good variety of dishes is on offer. Everything is beautifully cooked, and there is never a problem if insufficient food on our plates, so long as we remember to order vegetables as a side dish. We took friends who had long wanted to sample Reigate's top restaurant, and I know that they weren't disappointed.

The LaBarbe restaurant is a favourite now despite being 14 miles away, the food and presentation is first class. The management are to be congratulated for the standard of their staff who are knowledgable and very pleasant to all customers. We will be back with more friends 😀

We had a splendid birthday meal. The menu was interesting so we were definitely spoilt for choice and the champagne was an excellent accompaniment to the food! We particularly like the atmosphere at La Barbe. The interior designer has been very clever dividing the rooms into smaller intimate areas so you never feel crowded by other people. Altogether a first-class venue and a wonderful evening.

The food was superb and the service was friendly and efficient. We thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience and will definitely eat there again. Even better - we paid nothing because we won a meal for two in the restaurant's Spring competition! However, the prices look very reasonable in any case.

Lovely atmosphere, good service and great food. Unfortunately very expensive on Saturdays and apart from the house wine (nice) the wine is very expensive. Would like to dine at La Barbe again but will go mid week.

Our 2nd visit - on Father's Day - and we thought it was even better than the 1st. It was much busier than our first midweek lunch visit, but the layout of the restaurant means that it never feels crowded and it was a lovely atmosphere. The set menu was excellent value for money, bearing in mind the quality of the food. The four of us had one each of the four choices for starters and mains - each was beautifully presented and tasted fantastic. There were three takers for the trio of desserts and I tried the vanilla and blackberry vacherin. None of us was disappointed. Another fantastic visit. Plan to take my parents when they next come to stay. Thank you to everyone at La Barbe for making it such an enjoyable occasion

We have eaten at this well established restaurant for years and this is because the menu is interesting, the quality of the food and wine is consistently excellent, the staff are attentive but not pushy and the French ambience very comfortable.
