Good food. Choose to sit inside and the service was a little slow as most of the other patrons sat outside. I would revisit this place. The food is better than most of the other restaurants in Old Town.

A friend of mine and I went today to have lunch. Since we arrived, everyone on the staff was very welcoming. Our waitress was Vicky, super friendly and efficient.
The carne asada fajitas plate was delicious!
Thank you very much.

First time dinning 🍽 at this restaurant in Old Town San Diego. Nice atmosphere and the food is surprisingly 👌 very tasty 😋 The chips and salsa was very good 👍 with just a slight spiciness and also served a side of black beans 🫘 I ordered the 3 combination (no cheese on my plate); beef tamale, chicken enchilada and carnitas taco 🌮 this plate 🍽 had really good taste 😋 the beef tamale 🫔 was good but had just a small 10% amount of beef and about 90% masa. The chicken enchilada was very good 👍 with plenty of chicken. The carnitas taco 🌮 was delicious 😋 with the right ratio of carnitas and veggie toppings. I ordered the flan 🍮 for dessert and was disappointed 😕 they added whipped cream and chocolate syrup to the flan 🍮 and a cherry🍒 on top as if it was an ice-cream sundae... WHY? 🤔 flan 🍮 should be served alone with the caramel syrup only! Now although the staff was professional they lack humor, laughter and interaction with the guest's. The waiter came by a few times to see 👀 if everything was okay 👍 but they never asked if we wanted anything else, more drinks 🍸 or water 💧 and never asked if they could remove our plates 🍽... actually we had to move them to the side so we could finish enjoying our drinks 🍹🍸 That's why I gave only 2 ⭐️⭐️ stars for service.
On a side note... Food wise, I recommend this restaurant 👍 over the other busier restaurant next door, Casa de Reyes. The food next door is not so great... they lure their guests with music and friendlier staff but the food is not great and the rice tends to be dry and most of the other dishes lack taste. I should know because I would take guest's there 🤦

If you are in the Old Town area, Barra Barra is a must stop! You won't be disappointed! My date and I decided to check this place out during happy hour which starts at 4pm and goes only till 5pm. We were greeted promptly and got to choose our own table outside as we wished for. Chips and salsa and a black refried bean dip instantly appeared, that was so delicious! We ordered a skinny margarita and shared it. Again, delicious and perfectly made. For our entree's we ordered off the happy hour menu. My date ordered the mango sea bass ceviche, and I ordered the queso fundido hot skillet with jalapeno jack cheese, chorizo, and pico de gallo and tortillas. Everything was delicious. The atmosphere was very relaxing and the staff checked back frequently to make sure everything was fine. I highly recommend this place. We will be back!!!
