Stick to the buffet. We tried the Steakhouse, thought from the menu that it was going to be better but I was wrong. I ordered a ribeye, it was only about 1/2" thick and tasted like it was cooked over gas, and at market price, $50+ wasn't even close to being worth it. The vegetable was an over cooked broccoli. The salad was OK but where do you get a steak without a potato? There was nothing worth noting as far as the decor either, it was basically a room within a room. The service was great, they were understaffed, but who isn't these days? If you're going to Nappanee there are much better restaurants to visit.

We visited for the first time Friday, Oct 15. Te menus to choose from, family style and steak house menu. We chose steak house. The food was delicious. The presentation was remarkable. Main dishes come with choice of 2 types of salads (huge portions) or soup, and two sides. The loaded potatoes skins as appetizer was to die for. They were a little short staffed, as is every restaurant in our area. Meal took a little longer to be served, but we were with good company and didn't mind. The staff was most accommodating, attentive, and friendly. Esther makes the pies and breads. I encourage you to try the peanut butter crème and also the raspberry crème. If you're too full (which is very likely!) get a slice to go. 45 minutes drive from our home, but certainly will be added to our list of go-to restaurants.

Friendly atmosphere, amazing food and shops ! So many things to do here it's a little village. My dish was 10/10. My wife got the steak tips and those were 10/10 as well.

Cool tour of an Amish farm and it's near Rentown a small Amish general store, furniture, and Amish restaurant. The Amish restaurant closes super early like 2PM. The Barns are ok, pretty chill but it is moreso a piece of historical history of Amish craftsmanship, and it's not really owned by Amish at all anymore. I like authentic Amish people everywhere and you tend to find that more north in Amish Shipshewana

The steakhouse made an accommodation for us as we were not taking the stairs. They served a quality delicious meal even though we were on the wrong floor. Deb who seated us, Haden who is providing a golf cart to the theatre and Amanda our server all went above and beyond to give us a great dining experience. Amanda especially handled her regular station upstairs and us down stairs w a smile and an excellent attitude. We could not be more pleased.

Unfortunately, I think the low ratings for "The Barns" is from before the opening of the new FarmTable Restaurant. Totally underrated! We most recently had brunch here and were again pleasantly surprised. Of course no good brunch starts without mimosas and they were very accommodating to get us ours. Large glass of OJ and a bottle of bubbly from their in house winery The Vines. I had the chicken and waffles because I'm a s***** for fried chicken. I also sampled the chop salad and farm burger which I would have been happy to have for my own. Try it out! Just know the ratings don't do it justice in my opinion.

5-14-21 This place has New Owners now and the place is called The Barns instead of Amish Acres. Don't expect the same food that Amish Acres had. The Threshers Dinner is no longer ALL YOU CAN EAT (Except on Friday 4-8 pm, all day Saturday and Sunday from 10am to 2pm) which will be a Negative for a lot of people considering it costs $19.95 per meal and the portion size is small for the money. Just don't come on Friday between 11am-4pm like we did. The staff was friendly and polite so that was a was a plus. The Barns is very accommodating for people like me that are Vegans / Vegetarians. They replaced the ham soup with Tomato Bisque which had an excellent taste but the soup was barely warm. It definitely was not hot like it should of been. The meat was replaced with a veggie bean patty. The noodles with beef was replaced with Macaroni (My friend said there was hardly any beef with his noodles). They also gave me small whole carrots and whole string beans. The string beans where hard and crunchy which I don't care for. The stuffing had a good taste. None of the food was hot as all of it was warm to cold. I told my waitress the food was cold to slightly warm as she said OHhh. The waitress should of offered to take the food back but she didn't. I should of been more persistent. Also when we came here we thought the Thresher meal was all you can eat but the person on the phone didn't tell us that the All you can eat isn't until Friday 4pm to 8pm. We came between the hours of 11am to 4pm so we missed the Buffet. You also don't get a free dessert with the meal as that will cost you an extra $3.50 per slice. The drink is included with the meal at no extra cost. If you want extra bread before 4pm it will cost you $2.00 dollars. The only time you get the free dessert is on Sunday on there Brunch Buffet between 10am to 2pm. We also miss the pickles that Amish Actress had. I was able to talk to one of the owners. He was pleasant and listened to my complaints and suggestions. He ended up walking back into the restaurant and talking to the waitress and whoever else about our complaints like the cold and very mild warm food. The owner didn't offer us any thing for our cold food. Not sure I'll be back any time soon as I can go to other places a heck of a lot cheaper and I guarantee the food is hot. The food had a good taste for what we got for $19.95 but my biggest complaint was the waitress and two other people we spoke to there did nothing to rectify the cold food. Most restaurants I've ever gone to are eager to fix the problem but not this place. If the waitress would of fixed the cold food the stars would be 4-5. I hope the restaurant is successful but they need to listen to there customers. I hope the all you can eat buffet will have more food suited to the Vegans and Vegetarians out there.

Very disappointing visit to the steak house. Extremely slow service (nearly 2 hours) coupled with an awful steak. I had a ribeye that tasted like a cheap grocery store steak with a ton of fat. Will not be going back. Worst meal I have had at that price point.

Wow wow and wow for what the new owners have done with the Restaurant at "The Barns" previously known as Amish Acres. My Dad and I ate lunch here a while back and it was good, I don't think I yelped because it was brand new at the time and I think everyone needs a chance to work out the kinks (not the there were any my first visit). We decided to return to try the Brunch buffet. Plenty of food, plenty of fresh fruit and salad, and plenty (probably too much!! Lol) of everything else. The breakfast choices were good, sausage was fantastic, bacon was a smoky flavored delight, and the French toast had nuts and raisins and was the best buffet French toast I ever had. The gravy for the biscuits and gravy was good, but they need to work on the biscuits, they were dried up dust. (Thank goodness for the gravy!). Everything on the lunch side was very tasty. I sampled the ham and prime rib, I did not try the fried chicken or Tuscany? Chicken breasts. The ham was juicy and tender, with great flavor. The prime rib tasted great, but to be honest I had the rare selection, and it was very tough to chew. Still not a deal breaker for me on this great buffet. Over on the "Snack side they had avocado toast that was AWESOME! They also offered fresh (DELICIOUS) fruit, home made pies, cookies and pastries. They also had alcohol options but I did not try them. As far as Covid and the buffet, the staff worked really hard at keeping both us and the food safe!! Keep up the great work, we will be back!

They always have the best selection of handmade locally crafted items. I Love this store as a consumer and as an artist.

This was our first visit since the facility had changed hands. The only decent part of the visit was our nice waitress. We had looked at the menu online and everything seemed similar to what Amish Acres had offered, with some new additional dishes. For a Saturday, the restaurant was pretty empty. We both ordered the family style (with covid restrictions). We both had the broasted chicken, which was just okay. I had meatloaf and my husband had the brisket, both of which were covered in bbq sauce to the point everything on the plate was covered in it. Also, the beef and noodles were on the same plate so everything became disgustingly soggy. The potato soup was very runny and overly salty (I add salt to everything and this was too much for me to handle.). Green beans were basically raw with no seasoning, other than bbq. And everything was barely lukewarm. Neither of us ate anything other than some of the chicken and mashed potatoes, which were also covered in bbq sauce. The waitress asked how we liked the food and we told her that it was not as expected. The manager discounted 10% off of our meal so the bill was still $60 for 2 plates of uneaten food. (Wouldn't even think of taking home and feeding the leftovers to the dogs as they don't care for bbq. LOL) Go to KFC for fried chicken and save yourself $60.

This place has done a complete 180 when it comes to the quality, presentation, and taste of the food. I have eaten almost all of the items on the menu and all are terrific and delicious. The Lasalle group has done an excellent job!
