Bartini Prime

Came in on a Saturday in search of sushi. Was charged 5 dollars per person cover to eat dinner. Not sure what the cover was for they had «live» music, some girl lip syncing to pop songs. Had to literally yell to order our sushi, came out after 20 min and was awful. Had a volcano roll and a dragon roll and it was almost chewy like it had been sitting in a parked car with the windows up on a summer day. If your driving daddy’s escalade trying to pick up a stuck up girl, this is your spot.

They appear to be trying to be a bit of everything — steak, burgers, Maryland crab cakes… And Sushi? I had the caprese salad that was heavy on the balsamic but overall quite decent. For an entrée I had the grilled salmon that said it was sushi grade but pretty sure it was not. Had a side of asparagus that was cooked quite perfectly. The salmon was too dry on the outside and too raw inside… Maybe it was sushi grade but if so it should have been better. My biggest complaint was the timing of the food delivery. The salad came within about 3 minutes of ordering… Ok it was Tuesday and not too busy. But then the entrée arrived before I was done my salad. That’s not acceptable. As a single diner I had not given any indication I was in a hurry, so why the rush? And any good restaurant knows if you draw out the meal a bit likely you will get additional drink orders and maybe a desert and coffee out of your guests. No chance. I wasn’t giving them more money. There are a couple of other great places in Morgantown that I will gladly revisit time and time again. The wait staff and host were very pleasant so that brings it up from 2 to 3 stars.

Great atmosphere and service. Taco Tuesday is wonderful, nachos to die for. Definite recommend!

It should have been a sign when we were there only ones eating dinner @ 6:30pm on a Saturday night. Martini’s had no taste of alcohol… Good flavor, just lacking the most important part… And at $ 10 a glass… You shouldn’t have to wonder if they forgot the alcohol. Burger was sub par at best. Great atmosphere and location. Just not worth the $$ for the drinks and food. One and done. Wont be back…

This place was ok the sushi was great and the service was fantastic. It is not as upscale as some mad it out to be. However I guess for Morgantown it’s good enough. The place is convo energy located in a nice shopping center. I think the martini drinks are great!!! I am glad that we have this place. It will more than likely be our go to place for date night

I love Bartini! Hump day is my favorite day to go. Martinis and sliders are all amazing. Sliders come with homemade potato chips too, which are really great. Love the outdoor seating area.

Went in with my mother and Aunt and we had a blast! Definitely not for college students. It’s expensive and an overall older crowd!

Really great ADULT upscale bar. A rarity in a college town. The chicken nachos are the best. Broad wine list and excellent specialty drinks. Live entertainment on the weekends. Sometimes gets a bit loud depending on where you’re seated. Wait staff is friendly and efficient.

I have been here a few times with my girlfriends and have had a great experience every time! I even brought my family here for my graduation weekend. Nicole is the best waitress and always gets our drinks very quickly :-). Happy hour is half off all Martinis from 4−7pm and live music in Friday’s and Saturdays starts at 8pm. Great atmosphere with bar seating, regular tables, or couches to sit inside or outside! They also just added sushi to the menu… It is pricy compare to most places in morgantown, but the modern atmosphere is worth it. Their sliders are really tasty as well. Great place for a date night.

Bartini has an open and modern feel to it. They have two bars to choose from for seating and high tables inside with low tables on the patio, with a few lounge chairs and couches. It was a pleasant night and the doors were open so the main bar and patio bar were open to one another. The breeze was nice, however, many patrons were smoking on the patio and the smoke just blew right into the dinning room. We were able o choose a seat right away with no wait and we were greeted by our server promptly.
This is where service stopped being good. Looking around there were A LOT of people working (typical and expected for a Saturday night in a college town). However, very few of them were actually working. There was a lot of socializing and many were looking at their phones. The manager, who at least who I assume to be the manager was on the floor for most of the time so I’m not really sure that management even cares. There were some other problems with the service, which seemed to be a training problem. Our server came over several times to ask if we needed anything just as we had taken a bite, and a head shake was not good enough. She would awkwardly stand in front of us until we swallowed, until we could verbally answer.
Taking our drink orders the server didn’t know what Disaronno was and I overheard the bartender and he didn’t know either. I don’t have a problem with them not having the product, but it would have been nice if they would have had product awareness and could suggest a similar product. My husband ordered a bottled beer and it came to the table already poured into a glass. I thought this was nice, but he said he would have preferred to do the pour himself or at least have been asked. We ordered two plates of sliders and an appetizer of calamari. Granted we ordered everything at the same time, but everything came out at the same time, which is always annoying. The food was delivered by a food runner, who came out of the kitchen and had no idea where to go. Again, not really his fault, but definitely a breakdown in communication. The crab cake sliders were just ok, there was lots of crab in the cake, which was nice. But the whole thing felt a little slimy. Maybe toasting the bun or letting the crab cake crisp would add some texture. The meatball sliders had a lot of flavor. The ricotta pesto was very good, although piled a bit too high on the slider. The serve sliders with homemade chips, which were cut very thin and cooked perfectly. My only complaint would be that they were a bit over salted. The prices were a bit high too for sliders and chips, but I expected this from other reviews and friends.
We don’t get a date often too often, but we probably wont be returning here when we do.

Really fun place! Great apps, great happy hour deals and the service is wow! Great place to get your night started, I’ll have to try the sushi the next time I go

I Gave this place a second chance after a first bad experience and had to walk out this time. The sushi chef was not wearing gloves, doing dishes, and touching all of the fish with his bare hands while having a huge tobacco dip in. Extremely disappointed because menu sounded good and my girlfriend and I love trying new sushi places. We sat for over 15 minutes, without even getting drink orders, manager was rude as always and this was yet again a very poor experience

Love this place. It has a really cool modern feel to it on the inside. Take your pick from bar seating, tables, or even couches for a nice romantic night with the better half. I did that, it gives off an inviting comfortable vibe. I was there on a Thursday and the music was slower and chill, kinda what i was looking for on a Thursday. Friday and Saturday nights feature revolving live bands. The drinks are good and the selection is huge, although a bit pricy. Most specialty mixed drinks were around $ 10.
I tried a sushi roll and it was downright amazing. I think it was called the dank roll, it was a shrimp tempura topped with crab. The blend of flavors and sauces was spot on. My coworker who’s not a sushi fan tried a piece and liked it so much he ordered one himself. Yeah, it’s that good.
I guess my only real complaint is there’s not one of these in pittsburgh where I’m from. I’d go out of my way to return to bartini. Check it out!

We enjoyed drinks and appetizers here. We had oysters and bruschetta. Good atmosphere and attentive staff. Chilled by the fireplace. It can get a little loud when the music plays, but not overbearing. Eric Lewis is a good musician to listen to during adult-​drinks.

I have been to this place several times, but have yet to be impressed by it.
In my opinion, a Martini Bar is somewhere to go to meet friends to have a conversation. Every time I have been here, though, the music is too loud to talk to the person next to you. The DJ (s) need to learn that louder isn’t necessarily better. Not that I don’t like loud music, but if I’m going to pay for expensive drinks to enjoy with friends, I would like to do more than spend the evening shouting into their ears.
As far as atmosphere, it’s an eclectic mix. The décor reminds me of someone who bought their first townhouse and bought their art from Target. There are nice, isolated seating areas, and plenty of isolated little areas. Of course, you’ll need them to get close enough to your date to hear them.
The food is ok, but a little too pretentious. Is this a gastropub, a Martini Bar, or a dive bar?
Bottom line, this is an ok place, but not my first choice. There are plenty of other options for the older crowd looking to avoid the college set.

Outside seating great food and very sociable service enjoy your cigar with no hassle Great food super cocktails and great bands

Go for the drinks, not the food. Needs to figure out if it’s for real adults or ogling men.

Spacious area with a very warm vibe, has a good setup for entertainment. Drink selection is good, but the Martini’s are pretty good, overall this bar is a little pricier compared to the others, definitely a step up from the ones downtown, Also the location is prime as it is very near some good late night eateries.

Nice drinks, great food and awesome staff. Would definitely make this a must visit for Morgantown.

I am very excited this place came to Morgantown! Modern décor with some Parisian art flair, outdoor seating/​bar option, and a stage for live music behind the indoor bar make this place great for anyone. The drinks and food are well priced for what you get. The Flirtini was delicious and strong. The classic Cosmo was on point, as well! My filet mignon was cooked perfectly and only 15 bucks! They also obliged my food allergy requests with ease.
The bartender was so incredibly friendly and attentive, too!
This is a great place for an after work drink, special event or anything in between. Can’t wait to go back!
