Barnoa Wine Company - San Clemente

Barnoa is a great, neighborhood spot for a glass of wine and dinner with a friend or larger event with a group of gals. The service is attentive and friendly; we have overstayed past closing time a few times and the staff puts up with us with a smile! The food is wonderful; favorite appetizers include the Brie fondue and charcuterie board with fresh bread, salads are tasty and the salmon with risotto is perfect. Barnoa has been a fun spot to visit for many years and the live music is entertaining, but can get loud inside. If you want the chance to talk freely, try the outside patio or newer side patio with extra space.

Played a round of golf in San Clemente and just stopped in at this super fun wine bar... Stumbled inside on a Thursday night. We were so pleased with the atmosphere, there was live music playing which was so refreshing and so nice. Wonderful selection of wines... We had the blackened salmon with kale and risotto and the delicious fresh gnocchi... we decided to sit at the bar as the breeze was so nice coming through the door. We will definitely be back soon....

I 'd definately leave a no star if I could. Food was mediocre, steak never even arrived even after I asked for it several times and then canceled it. Then me and a friend and his girl were kicked out for...... I have no explanation for maybe the $1 tip on a $400 tab that could be it, which to be honest I didn 't even feel like leaving that. He brought the change back and threw it on the table. Then told told us we better leave or he would kick my ass which we did get up and leave but I will say this he 's going to learn what penal code 422 is in California in the next day or so. There are many great wine bars in Orange County that will treat you great and have great food and selection. No owner should ever let this occur at there establishment and they are also going to learn that they are responsible for their employees and making a customer feel for their safety and the safety of their friends.

Had dinner at Barnoa tonight. Food was delicious. Service was awful. There were maybe 4 tables of diners yet we never saw our server after food was delivered. Never got water refills or a visit to see how our food was. Big disappointment. Would leave a minus star if an option.

Service was delicious and the wine was so good. Great date night spot, people here are very friendly.
