My first time at Barterhouse and I loved everything we ordered. The restaurant was decorated for Christmas and it was beautiful! The hush puppies were delicious and the fresh catch with butternut squash was so good. I’ll definitely be going back!

Once again Acropolis provides a fantastic evening for our family. We had a new waitress who was on Day 1 out of training. She was so sweet and though she made a few mistakes with our meal, she was working hard to make it all great! We live in Texas, but when in town, this is a multiple must visit.

First time dining and I would return. Food was great, ambiance was good too. It was a great Christmas dinner! We’re curious as to what their regular menu is since they mentioned that the menu changed for the holidays. So definitely planning in returning.
