The detox salad with grilled chicken was very good. I wasn't a fan of the dressing though, it was very oily. I got it on the side and only used it sparingly. The ingredients was all so good I didn't really need it anyway. The tater tots are nice and crisp. There is a very large back patio with umbrellas.

The food I got here was SO good. I was so indecisive on what to get since there was plenty of options, but ended up getting the Waldorf salad + shrimp, and the Truffle sandwich subbed with ciabatta bread. I had no high expectation since the last location I went to was disappointing, but everything I got was so good. The fruit in the salad was so tasty, not hard or tasteless as it usually goes, the shrimp was good, and the sandwich was amazing.

Unfortunately need to write this review as they are using canola oil not only to fry but also in their salad dressing. For a restaurant that prides itself in ingredients and charges such premium prices, we should expect more. Also, the wait was exceptionally long despite not being busy. Bummed that the places you think you can trust to care about quality and providing nourishing meals to the community are cutting corners like this! Also pieces of wilted / older tasting lettuce the last few times I've been in. Do better, Blue Barn! We want to love you.

Fresh, flavorful, and that ranch is everything! Blue Barn in Novato is one of those places I keep coming back to and I always end up ordering the Northern Fry with crispy tater tots and a side of their amazing ranch. You know that ranch that just hits the spot? This is it. Creamy, tangy, and totally addictive. The menu is packed with fresh, locally sourced options. You’ll find hearty salads like the Cobber and Waldorf with shrimp, creative sandwiches (the skirt steak is a favorite), burgers, tacos, and even comfort sides like tomato basil soup and seasonal greens. There’s something for everyone, including vegan and vegetarian choices. The outdoor seating is cozy and clean, with umbrellas for sunny days and a relaxed vibe that’s perfect for casual dining. It’s pet-friendly and kid-friendly, so expect a lively crowd during peak hours. Staff is friendly and quick, and the whole place has a laid-back, California-cool feel. If you’re in Novato and craving fresh ingredients with bold flavors, Blue Barn is a solid pick. Just don’t skip the ranch.

I’m not usually one to complain but this is not close to medium rare… I took it back to have it remade and the workers response was to suggest I get it well done next time?? I will acknowledge that they did provide a replacement a fresh one.
