“Haven't had an authentic Spanish food in a while. Found this on Google and I can't be more happier. Michel the owner is the most awesome person you can meet. Loved the vibe and the time we talked. Food is the best. All flavors are there and have a good variety. Totally recommend this place.“

“Can't say enough good things about this hidden gem. 45 mins away from home and I will go there again for sure! The mojitos were a complex drink that was freshly made and the food - from the arepas to the pernil with the crispy skin - was delicious. Can't wait to go back and try something else.“

“We ate here last night and the food and service were wonderful! What was even more wonderful was the customer service when I left my purse at the restaurant. I called later that night to see if it was there. They were so kind and kept my bag and made arrangements to get it to me this morning before they opened. Would definitely go back!“

“I love everything about El Barrio. The food is outstanding as is the atmosphere. Eldar makes amazing cocktails! Highly recommend.“

“This has very quickly become one of my favorite places to eat. I loved it so much I had to bring my family and bought extra for friends to try, up to yesterday they’ve called me to ask what to order.

The atmosphere is open and warm, and the customer service is excellent! I truly love this place and plan to frequent it often. Thank you to the amazing staff for making us feel so welcomed when we came by.“

“We hadn't been here since in changed names/owners a few years ago. Four diners ordering 4 completely different meals - it was hard to choose which one we liked best. Starting with the street corn dip and poached pear; both were a hit, but the party was divided on whether or not they would have liked the pear served warm (it was served cold) and filled with honey mascarpone and lots of pistachios. We moved onto the main courses of chicken cutlet with mashed potatoes; steak with truffle fries; orecchiette with broccoli and sausage; hamburger with fries. Everything was cooked to perfection (steak medium rare, chicken crispy and not at all dry, burger medium with just a hint of pink in the center.) The drinks were creative (did not skimp on the alcohol!) and plentiful, refilled quickly by our attentive server. Desserts as always tend to make or break a meal; these desserts did not disappoint. Banana tres leches cake, Amaretto crème brulee and the special cookie and ice cream combination along with coffee and digestif. A special treat for the evening - Live entertainment in the bar area. Not too loud, we could still have dining room conversation over the music, but found ourselves singing along to most of the tunes. There is definitely something here for everyone!“
