Ya Que mis reviews dañan tanto la reputación de un lugar sin dignidad ahí les va :) No le de su dinero a esta gente sin escrúpulos. El trato que recibió mi familia ayer por la noche fue inaceptable. Lo único malo que hizo mi madre fue requerir a nuestra mesera ya que le dejaría una mejor propina de la que yo le dejé. Un poco de contexto, habíamos tenido a Maritza como nuestra mesera (una señora muy poco profesional) el día primero de diciembre Fuimos a Barba roja para pasar un buen rato. Estaba bailando con un hombre y mi madre me dijo que esta señora (Maritza) se burlaba de mi forma de bailar. Sé bailar cumbia, más no música regional mexicana. No hay pecado en no saber bailar... ella se bufaba de mí y decidió que era una buena idea bailar con ese hombre para "demostrar" cómo ella podía "bailar" incluso se le pegaba bastante inapropiadamente al muchacho. A mi me sorprendió que pudiera ignorar su trabajo para bailar con los clientes. Así que esa noche mi madre dejó una mala reseña, ya que este lugar está categorizado como "familiar" y conociendo el negocio de servicio al cliente, mi madre lo encontró poco agradable que una mesera estuviera bailando y teniendo actitudes de fichera con un cliente. El 28 de diciembre (ósea anoche) pagué $50 por una mesa y $35 cada persona por la entrada. Fuimos 3. Cuando llegamos al evento, Maritza al vernos tuvo mala actitud ya que me imagino que ella seria nuestra mesera. Al final le dio la mesa a otra muchacha. Esperamos 30 minutos para recibir servicio. Le pedimos al propietario instrucciones sobre quién sería nuestra mesera. Nos preguntó "quién loa sentó aquí" y le respondimos que el anfitrión con las entradas nos sentó en esta mesa que habíamos reservado (con los $50) regreso muy amable y preguntó si habíamos recibido servicio después de algún tiempo. Dijimos que sí, porque la otra chica (que no sabía que estaba entrenando)había recibido nuestro pedido de bebidas. La noche estuvo tranquila y progresó sin problemas. Mi único error fue dejarle una baja propina a mi mesera. A mi criterio el servicio fue demasiado lento. Mi madre con tal de encontrar a la muchacha le pidió a (Maritza) que se le hiciera saber a la otra muchacha que ella la estaba buscando. Esta señora (Maritza) de manera corriente, en lugar de hacer lo que se le pidió, se enfrentó a mi madre y le preguntó que por qué había dejado una mala crítica haciéndole saber a la gente que estaba bailando con un cliente y que estaba teniendo actitudes de fichera. Mi madre, siendo la persona más profesional y educada, había ignorado su comentario y pidió que se le acercara a nuestra mesera. Así que pidió 3 veces que dirigiera a la otra mesera a nuestra mesa. La Sra. Maritza seguía preguntando por qué dejamos esa mala crítica. Entonces mi madre se molestó y quiso hablar con el gerente o el propietario. El propietario, de una manera demasiado machista nos aseguró que esto era un asunto entre viejas. Se negó a asumir la responsabilidad que tiene como dueño, para solucionar una queja. No ofreció ninguna solución ni disculpas. Cuando le pregunté si a sus meseras se les permitía bailar con invitados... me aseguró que si se les permitía bailar con los clientes. En los 9 años que tengo de servicio al cliente jamás e presenciado que un miembro del personal pudiera bailar, comer, o tomar e incluirse en un evento al cual un cliente está asistiendo. La única conclusión que el propietario me proporcionó es que mis reseñas en línea afectan su negocio. Pero nunca que su propio personal es responsable de su falta de servicio o del entorno problemático. Terminaré esto diciendo que tú, como invitado, nunca deberías experimentar algo tan vergonzoso como esto. No termino de entender cómo el propietario pasó de ser muy amigable a luego volverse machista, agresivo y poco profesional, la forma en que manejó la situación estaba súper fuera de contacto. ¡Le advierto que nunca venga a este lugar! Si cree que será tratado con respeto aquí. Piense lo contrario. Conduce unas cuantas millas más y ve a la Oaxaqueña en su lugar... seguro que te tratarán mejor allí. Update: en las fotos pueden ver su respuesta a la reseña Con esto terminan de aclarar lo ignorante y poco profesionales que son como establecimiento. No hubo una disculpa sobre el comportamiento de la mesera hacia una cliente y ninguna responsabilidad del dueño por resolver el problema. Así no prosperarán en un negocio porque se hacen del dinero de los clientes que deciden ingresar a su establecimiento y gastar su dinero con ellos. Feliz 2025 XD

Service 10/10 was good, nice server. Complementary chips and salsa but salsa was not flavorful. The Ambiance is 7/10 nice ambiance, small place & nice whole in the wall mom and pops place , but if you come evening time after 7pm, they will be setting up for a club on one side. So it felt weird to be eating and the staff was setting up and decorating and the server stood at the bar, felt a little rushed and we like to normally spend $$ on drinks and talk and enjoy our selfs. The cocktails was terrible tho! The mango & watermelon margaritas looked pretty but taste like syrup and juice and candy it was crazy. I ordered a regular margarita and it was less sweet but not your regular margaritas. Food 8/10 not to many options! But the basics, the food was ok, regular Arizona Mexican food. The wet burrito was ok, but the "wet" style taste like canned enchilada sauce no flavor. Enchiladas & tacos are ok.

As a native so cal person, finding a good street taco is nearly impossible. Stumbled upon this place and YES. My fiancé and I will be back. So good, fresh ingredients, nice staff. Everything was perfect.

I visited today, based on recommendation by a coworker. Walked into this little gem a little after noon, only to find the place empty. I was accompanied by three friends and we all ordered the quesabirria taco plate, which comes with a small container of consomé, two salsas, cabbage, cilantro/onion on the side, and three good size birria tacos. After taking our order, drinks and basket of warm chips and green salsa were placed on our table. Salsa had a little kick, and was fresh and flavorful. Our quesabirria tacos arrived a short time later, and they were very delicious. Lots of flavor, and the consomé was awesome, and not greasy like I've had at other places. Wait staff was very nice and attentive. Everyone at our table raved about the food and stated they will return. There is a large bar, which I'm assuming is open during the evening hours and weekends. Give this place a try!

I went in there asking for Berria Ramen, it was not on the menu, nevertheless the owner told me " We can make that happen " and let me tell you I was served the BEST Birria Ramen I've ever tasted in all of Phoenix! We also tried their Quesabirria tacos! So good! Delicious flavorful food. The service was great and the atmosphere was awesome. I highly recommend this place. We will definitely return for there taco Tuesday Karaoke the Owner told about.

Had a craving for Birria tacos, set off to go to Az Taco King which was amazing but they moved. Barba Roja is literally next door and had tried before. Ordered the taco Tuesday specials a select few taco options offered for 1.99 asada,Adobado and Birria with consume (beef broth) ,sour cream both extra but not to expensive, ordered a kids side of rice and beans as well. My first experience was a solid 4 1/2, this was a 3 1/2 however. The beans tasted burnt, had the quesobirrias last time was delicious . Im thinking becuase there wasn't anyone in the place at 1 pm had something to do with it. Place is a little dingy, but amazing customer service from the bartender. The beers were pricey at 6$ a bottle. So i just had ice water which wasn't that good either. Spending 23$ i would expect a little better experience. Next time i'll stick with the quesobirrias. read more

This place is a REAL ONE! 10 out of 10, and very consistent. The quesabirria is UNMATCHED, a lot of places make decent quesabirria tacos, but these are my favorite that I have had in Phoenix. The consome. Is perfect. The shrimp burrito, bacon wrapped, is like nothing I have ever tasted. The enchiladas are spot on. The micheladas hit JUST RIGHT. The servers were very attentive, and just so nice. Update: I tried the ceviche tostada, 10 out of 10 read more

Everyone deserves a second chance...so i will come back later. Said that, i want to make some recommendations to the chefs and the staff ...try to get a machine to keepueep the plate warm so the food don't get cold to the customer, every table needs salt and pepper also a good hot and mild sauce. This time i took a quesabirria plate, it was good, very greasy but it needs more birria flavor, carne azada taco needs to be improved to a real asada beef, shrimp cocktail also can be improved if you guys cook raw shrimp with just salt and water to give flavor to the pre-cook shrimp ...i will come again hope by then i can change my review to a 5 stars. read more

Alright. I didn't want to leave a review like this because WOW the food is pretty good for Arizona Mexican food. But....This place has a HUGE quality control issue. This is the third time (in a row, three days in a row) I have ordered the Ceviche Tostada to go through Door Dash. Each time, it has come in two separate containers with different quantities of tostada and different amounts of Ceviche. First order, a plastic cup FULL of ceviche (I remember thinking 'WOW great value'!) with four freshly made tostadas. The second order? In a plastic to go box with the ceviche juice leaking all over the bag and tostadas (which I asked for extra and offered to pay for the extra, and yet only received TWO this order) and I chalked it up to the door dashers poor handling. I did receive less ceviche than I had the first time which was disappointing. But hey, still worth the $$ in my eyes! Ordered tonight again, received three tortilla chip rounds (seriously, not even the freshly made tostada they have) and the same to go container from yesterday, again with leaking ceviche EVERYWHERE. After looking at the container, it does not create a seal, will always leak, and is not the appropriate packaging for this item for a to go order. Also...SIGNIFICANTLY less ceviche than even my second order. Not even worth the money they charge at that point. I've made peace with the fact that they can't get their quality control under control, and won't eat here again until I see some indication of improvement. Bummer. Barba Roja, I pay a set price because I expect the item to be the same quantity and quality everytime. Take note and improve so I can enjoy you. read more

Pride Month is coming to an end and I'd be remiss to not mention this amazing LGBTQ+ and women…read moreowned sports bar here in The Melrose District of Phoenix. Title 9 Sports Grill is Phoenix's first sports bar dedicated to women's athletics. It features 22 screens, a "Trophy Room" honoring local athletes, and a menu prioritizing women-owned breweries. Co-founded by former athletes Audrey Corley and Kat Moore, it also serves drinks named after iconic players. The Concept: Named after the landmark 1972 civil rights legislation (Title IX), the bar's mission is to elevate the visibility and celebrate the achievements of female athletes. The Vibe: The interior operates almost like a mini-museum, featuring historic photos with QR codes for background information and an entry wall plastered with donated medals and trophies from women in the Valley. The interior color scheme that subtly reflects the lesbian pride flag. The Drinks: Their beers on tap, wines, and spirits are heavily sourced from women-owned businesses and breweries, such as Phoenix's own Greenwood Brewing. I definitely recommend the Greenwood Hazy IPA and the Maher Mule (a play on the Moscow mule). TVs & Broadcasting: While women's games (like the WNBA, women's soccer, and softball) take priority, the bar is inclusive and will play men's games upon request, provided no major women's events are live.

For two people we ordered three types of empanadas we probably could have gotten away with two flavors and maybe a lighter tapa or desert but really wanted to try the cheese and guava empanada and didn't want that to be a main option in case we didn't like it. Needless to say we really liked all three: picadillo, arroz con pollo and guava and cheese - the picadillo was the favorite however both for the inside flavor and the accompanying dip.
