The service is very good . Everything we had tried was pretty darn good . The espresso and disassembled cannoli was amazing. The staff was supper friendly . They personally gave us a tour after dinner to show us the restaurant and the fine wines that they offer . Our next visit we are going to stop and try the charcuterie board and do some wine tasting. read more

Good food and great wait staff! Each time we have gone to Neoteca it made our date night that much more special.

Space is great and service was attentive. I wanted to enjoy this place due to its previous reviews. There were three specific sour points to the F&B. The iced tea was bad, probably batch brewed and did not taste well (ie over-steeped) Thankfully, the waiter swapped immediately with a soda when I asked. Second were the parmesan chicken wing appetizer. The wings were seasoned and cooked well; there was a nice acid touch. However, there was a hair on one wing and we didn't finish. Lastly, I ordered the grape salad with salmon. The salmon was smoked and mildly luke warm. Albeit, I should have asked how it was prepared prior to ordering; I would have assumed our server would have shared its preparation. The Smokey salmon did not pair well with the components of the salad. Overall, neoTeca "can be good" if you stick to their hits (ie pizza, pasta, etc). Maybe I should have done that. But I would advise to not be too adventurous with the menu. read more

Good wine and a wide variety of pizza Very trendy , a lot of young people and elegant ladies visit the place read more

This was the first time I have been to this restaurant. The ambience is very nice and the waitress Patricija was very attentive, professional and nice too. However the beef ravioli and artichoke appetizer was just ok (The mushroom ravioli was instead recommend). The sangria was very good though. I will definitely be back though for happy hour and try their pizza that was recommended. read more

Had a lovely dinner and time at Neoteca for my birthday dinner with girlfriends. Very relaxing atmosphere and good service. We ordered several dishes and shared them. The appetizers were amazing along with the pizza and pasta! Martini was great too. This is the third time I've been there and it doesn't disappoint. Cheers! read more

Brussels sprouts are amazing! Great service, and nice vibe inside. Will be going back.

This place is perfect for the area. Great atmosphere, good food, and the prices are reasonable, which we can all appreciate. The pizzas are very good, so you don't have to go big on an entree if you aren't in the mood. The first time here, we sat at a table. Service was good, and the pizza we split was very good. The second time was a couple weeks later, and we sat at the bar and ordered food and drinks. Even better. The bartender was personable and he really knew his drinks, craft beer, and wine. Overall, an excellent value for a place with good food and drinks, and a shade on the casual side, so no need to get dressed up unless you want to. read more

Decided to give this place a try since it was rated so good. We went for happy hour for the $6 Peronis. Turns out, their draft beer taps were not working. So instead of getting a $6 pint of beer, it was $8.50 for a 12 ounce bottle. Pretty steep in my opinion. Got the bruschetta and was pretty bland in my opinion. The pizza is ok. Our server was very sweet. Sorry to say we won't be back. read more

I decided to give this place a chance to get out on a Saturday night. The ambiance was nice and the drink I was made was great but the customer service wasn't there. I mean I wasn't asked if I needed a second drink or if I wanted to order food. I just finished my drink and left. I wish I had a better experience. read more

Owner needs a reality check. If you're a PIZZA place, it shouldn't be an issue if I ask for a pizza box to go when I didn't finish my pizza. Our waiter told us the owner doesn't like giving pizza boxes for leftovers-- only the plastic tray boxes. If im paying $22 for my 12 inch pizza and I don't finish it, I don't want to stack it up in a tiny plastic to go container. I also noticed a carry out fee if you pick up. You already raised your menu prices, why are we nickel and diming every little thing? read more

Nice area/ outdoor seating! First tried the gnocchi, beef ravioli and bruschetta. Portion size - pretty small- not filling and we are not big portion eaters- but the pasta was well made . Bruschetta- bacon was almost non existent on most pieces. It did taste good . Service, idk if this was an "off night" Server was at best - adequate. The restaurant was not full . Basically got the food and then ignored. Suggestion; if the pasta portion are small provide bread platter or small vegetables. Nothing came with our dinner. read more

Delicious food with a great variety. Service is always kind and efficient. The restaurant is clean and welcoming. Would recommend!

The food at this place is great. From the fresh pizza to the pastas and wine list, my family has had a few great dinners here over the years. They also have great outdoor seating during the summer. read more

Chicken Parmesan outstanding and like the casual sophisticated atmosphere. Fun drinks and a small but diverse menu.

Very good selection of bruchettas and all very good. Pizza is excellent! Service and vibe great as well. Love the porch in the summer.

Just love this restaurant. The atmosphere is warm and inviting. Great team committed to excellence in food, beverages, and customer care. The staff Sean to enjoy working there. Love their specialty cocktails and wine. Need to expand my choices but must admit their pizzas and apps are so delicious. Always a good time at Neoteca! Love their outdoor patio too. read more

We love small plates and sharing food, so this is the place for us. We enjoyed the feel inside and the food and wine was pretty good. We will be back for another date night read more

If you are a foodie this place is for you. Everything we ordered was amazing! Some suggestions are the lemon garlic wings with Parmesan-best wings we have ever had. The wood fire pizza was amazing with dollops of ricotta cheese on top. The beet salad with goat cheese and blueberry vinaigrette was so tasty, I added grilled chicken. The raspberry mojitos are a house specialty and delicious. This place is a 5 out of 5. Service was great too! Check it out! read more

Terribly small portion sizes for the price and the quality does not make up for it! Will not return. Buyer Beware!

It was fantastic. The food was delicious, the service was delightful, and the ambience was great.

We have been trying to get to Neoteca for quite some time and finally got to try it out. Food here was delicious. Their truffle fries with garlic dip was amazing but the the Brussel sprout were overdone/burned. The warm olives were different. The fennel pizza is a nice treat for sausage lovers with chunky pieces on top. Oliva pizza was unique and good to try. The spinach and ricotta pizza was delicious. Their desserts were "melt in your mouth" good. The chocolate cookie with ice cream was just finger licking good, while tiramisu was very satisfying. Overall we left filled and satisfied with food. I would rate their food as 5 star. They have a nice big outdoor patio which is pet friendly. However the service outside was really slow. We asked for red peppers and got it when we were done with food. As the evening went it got cold but majority of the outdoor warmers were out of gas. The service definitely made the overall experience not so great. Would recommend going here for food during non peak time. read more

Food was ok. Nothing special. Pizza tasted good Service was below average. Bathrooms were filthy. Won't be going back. read more

Like Neo in St. Charles or the late Neo in Naperville, Neoteca is a good place to eat. Pizzas are great, while appetizers (Meatballs in particular!) are good as well. Quiet and comfortable atmosphere and a team-based service approach works well. read more

Firstly, the menu is quite limited. Not a lot of choices, very few if you are vegetarian/vegan. Half the menu is not available for dinner. The pizzas are very bready, lack flavor and are just plain "boring". Pastas are dry and pretty much nothing to pay $20 for. Secondly, today our waiter had such a poor attitude, barely made an effort to get everyone's order ( we were a large group). He looked like he didn't want to be there. Poor service combined with a limited menu makes this a "not going back again" place for sure! read more

Love this place. Everything I've had so far has been delicious. Staff is so friendly. They have 2 nice patios now for safer Covid distance dining. We were so hungry I forgot to take a picture of the food! We will definitely be back. read more

Nice people for sure! My family and I like to make our own pizzas often so we buy our dough from all the pizza shops because that's the hardest/best part. Neoteca sells pizza kits for $10 (comes w dough, sauce, and something else... tray? I can't remember). I came in just to buy a bunch of dough and sauce but good tip for others. Uhm... seems like a nice place to eat pre/post quarantine. My least favorite dough we've used so far though. Sauce too. Theirs is a bit watery. To each their own preference. read more

I personally like this place. My wife and I we go there from time to time since opening. We pretty much tried everything they have to offer. I somewhat agree that pizza used to be better at the beginning and I do not know if it is the change of ingredients? Maybe? Regardless they still have a best Bruschetta options I have ever came across and you can have the cold or hot options so it can fulfill anybody taste. I am fond of their outside seating which is cool in the summertime. We visited Neoteca two weeks ago and noticed they have a change in the menu if it comes to lunch. They offer sandwiches which we tried, one of them was Eggplant Sandwich the other was Portobello Sandwich. I have to admit that portobello was one of the best I had in a long time and I love to find such promising changes to the menu. read more

Food is delicious and the atmosphere is lovely! I love coming here with my girlfriends for a wine night! Can't recommend enough.

This place was packed on Saturday as I drove by in the early evening. Decided to try the pizza Sunday night. Would not return here. A Barrington disappointment. We enjoyed the meatball appetizer, seasoned but not really savory, and the dish was cramped in a small, deep square bowl, making it difficult to serve. Tomato sauce was sparse. Caesar salad was dry and bland, not fully coated, could not detect anchovy, if present, unsavory, no seasoned crouton, which was a piece of grilled Italian bread. Zero flavor. The only flavor was from the sliced Parmesan and a hearty application of cracked pepper from the server. The Margherita pizza was skimpy on the basil. Not a fresh mozzarella on top.Crust was unremarkable. . read more

We had an early sunday dinner here recently. I ordered the fennel sausage pizza and my partner ordered the bianco pizza with garlic, oregano and pesto. Both pizzas were hot, melty, with wonderful fresh flavors. The hand pulled crust was perfectly crisp with those wonderfully crunchy air bubbles. This pizza I believe is very authentic to Italia. Their limoncello martini was delicious too and the perfect accompaniment to the pizza if you're not in the mood for wine. They do have an extensive wine list to please any palate and price. They even have some of my favorites from the amarone region. The interior is sleek and urban. I would soften the interior a bit with a few softer colors and soft artwork but that's just me. The service was perfect. Couldn't have been better. We will return. read more

I enjoyed my first-time visit to Neoteca! Cute, clean restaurant with a nice modern look. I had a margherita pizza that was thin, crispy, and delicious. My paloma was fabulous, and the cookie dessert was amazing. The cookie was cooked in a pan and served with a scoop of ice cream on top. The restaurant was pretty quiet when I went, but it was pretty close to closing time on a Friday night. I'm sure it's livelier during the day. Otherwise, this restaurant is a terrific fit in the downtown Barrington area and I would go back. read more
