Barney's Gourmet Hamburgers at 225 26th St, Santa Monica, California.

I am conflicted on Barney’s. On the one hand, I thought the food was delicious and very visually appealing as well. On the other, service wasn’t very friendly, and the prices are high. I wasn’t sure what to rate it, but the taste and enjoyment of the food led to me giving it a higher rating.

Barney’s is a food stand in the Brentwood Country Market, a very cute area with lots of small shops and grocery stores, as well as other food stands/cafes. Some of them only take cash, although Barney’s will accept cards.

I was disappointed with the service that I received from the cashier. I felt as though she wasn’t friendly at all, and very impatient and slightly rude. We were handed a pager and had to wait about fifteen minutes for the food to be ready, which was a bit long, but not too bad.

The food itself I thought was incredible! The burger was one of the most visually pleasing and aesthetic burgers I’ve ever seen - I got the one with avocado, and it was a perfectly complement to the patty. I also loved the fries here! The portions are very generous as well, and will definitely leave you walking away very full!

Again, the prices here are definitely marked up for its location in a wealthy area, but I still enjoyed the meal here, and thought the food was delicious and had great quality to it. Overall, I feel I would recommend this place, since the food was so pleasing.
