Great experience here. The guy who took care of us was nice, professional and thoughtful. We both got one of the enchilada dinners and gave the plate back empty. Interior is fun and clean. Margarita was nice and not too sweet.

The atmosphere and service was great. The food is great and flavor would say it's more tex-mex style.

You'll never get a better meal (taste or price) than el barrio. Do yourself a favor and order the beef tacos. 🌮

I am a picky eater usually, especially about Mexican food, and this place far exceeded my expectations across the board. Appetizers were amazing. Main entrees were spectacular. Desserts were mind blowing. And the tequila, well…let’s just say it was the greatest night ever all around with my greatest friends!!😆

Food and atmosphere were amazing. Five star food for sure. Some of the best Mexican I have had anywhere....and I travel the country for a living, including Arizona and New Mexico. The pico was deliciously spicy. The chicken actually moist and very flavorful. But kids today. So disrespectful....and I was even overly generous with the tip! I tipped 36% and got nothing but treated disrespectfully. I'd be very upset that I live 8 hours away, if the service was kind. There was almost no one dining at the time; so no rhyme or reason for it. I'd give anything to have a midly decent human being be my server.

Everything was OK. We were the only ones there. For a place that is somewhat authentic and been around forever just wondering how they stay open ?

We enjoy coming here with a large family group. Good food, good service, owned by nice people. Not a ton of vegetarian options.
