    Quesabirrias Tacos
    Denneane C.

    Great service! Clean comfortable trendy atmosphere. All food was excellent. We will definitely be back.

    Dirty bar
    Matthew C.

    We came around 7 pm, the bar on the outside was empty. The bar tender took 2 or 3 minutes to visit and he didnt really do anything good, or bad. Just meh. He did bring us chips and salsa and took our order timely. My wife ordered some shrimp tacos and she said they were dry and over cooked. After a while of needed refills we got ahold of a different bartender and he was pretty fun. This bartender, Dom, made jokes we weren't in the VIP section, but made sure the rest of our evening was fun. I posted a picture of it, but the bar looked like this since we sat down. It was really dirty and cluttered. I looked across and the people across from us had probably 10 shot glasses and 5 empty beer glasses. It was moderately busy, but not so busy for the bar to be a filthy mess. They needed to probably have a barback or one of the bussers come and make a run through. I give 3 stars because my wife LOVED her margaritas and Dom was pretty cool, other than that, wasn't worth the trip.

    I think this is our last stop at the Barrio Queen.. While the food is typically good the service is so bad. The last three times we've sat at the bar and you think it would be better, but it's definitely not. Waiting for long periods with no acknowledgment, no drink. The "bartender is MIA more than he's at the bar. Tonight was it. We watched over twenty plus minutes as the people next to us along with ourselves couldn't flag anyone down to get a drink or pay our bill. By the time we left my husband was so irritated. For the price you think they'd have some decent attentive service. Especially at the freaking bar.

    We returned to Barrio Queen after some time passed after a meh experience when they first opened and are glad we gave it another try! The elote ribs w were tasty, tacos were all good and the salsa was better than most. The skinny Margarita in particular was a nice balance of tart lime juice, agave nectar, and tequila. Our server was pleasant and reasonably attentive. The indoor-outdoor seating is nice in good weather. Definitely on our list to return.

    We're visiting from LA and wanted to have dinner with our family from surprise. We looked on yelped and decided to try Barrio Queen. I'm so glad we did because everyone in our group of 10 enjoyed their dinner. We started with micheladas chingonas and margaritas, so good. We moved on to appetizers and ordered the Mexican street corn, corn ribs, queso fundido and taquitos. The fresh tortillas with the queso went perfect together. The corn ribs were so good we placed another order. The taquitos with the toppings they're served with were great and we added the habanero salsa for additional flavor. We also ordered tacos, tortas and enchiladas and the flavors were perfect! The service was good, everything came out quickly and perfect temperature. The restaurant is beautiful with so many little details, like the purse hooks on the tables, the alebrije lamp shades, and so much more! This place is definitely a vibe. If you're looking for good food, good drinks and fun experience this is it.

    My husband, I wanted this location on Friday, May 16 for their happy hour from 3 to 6 PM. The restaurant was not crowded at all and we opted to sit out on the patio since it was nice. They do have spritzers available, but they weren't on when we were there. Our service was good and they have a happy hour menu on the back of the smaller menu which will show you the options to choose from for five dollars for drinks and select appetizers. We did like the birria quesadillas but we did not care for the chicken quesadilla which was skimpy on the meat when we placed the order for the second appetizer and it's only enough for two people because you get four pieces. We did also try the frozen margaritas and a regular margaritas on the rocks if you would like to add flavor to any of your margaritas it's a additional dollar more, which will make it six dollars instead of five dollars. You also receive complementary chips and salsa. We enjoy the chips but the salsa was very watery not thick at all. But it's nice since it's free just wish the salsa had more flavor & was thicker.

    Went in for their Taco Tuesday, Buy a taco get one free, great deal. I wanted to like this place, and it wasn't bad. But it was just okay. We got six tacos in total. Cochinita Pibil, Pescado, and Quesabirria were the favorites. With the quesabirria taking the most liked. They had the most flavor and had nice amounts of veggies and had a balance of flavor. The Asada, Suadero Azteca, Al Pastor were below average. The Al pastor was very sweet with no heat at all. The asada was tender and was seasoned. All three were lacking onion and cilantro. The tres leches was disappointing. There were very flavorful strawberries in the dish but I don't think there was any berry compote. Not pictured was an Azteca Burrito with rice and black beans. It was surprising dry. The beans were heavily salted, almost inedible. The rice was bland, lacking flavor. The chips were great. The red salsa was very mild, and close to being too tomato flavored. The verse salsa was a favorite and uniquely seasoned. Great service, very kid friendly and welcoming atmosphere. I would come back for this Taco Tuesday deal.

    Best happy hour around! Nachitos  Barrio Guacamole

    We came here a few times this trip because we lived their menu. We came during happy hour and they had $5 margaritas, $5 appetizers and we left with a full stomach and a plan to come back soon. They had a wonderful happy hour corail menu, but their house margarita with a takin rim was absolutely delicious. For food, we ordered guacamole, two chicken tacos, the nachitos and had lots of left overs. This place has the BEST happy menu by far in this area. Besides the menu, the food is delicious and the ambiance here is amazing.

    First time to the surprise location, tried a new item off the menu. It was decent except the chicken it was dry and so gamey it wasn't great the server was nice enough to tell us upfront the kitchen was having a bad day today because almost all his orders were wrong he did offer a different chicken taco that was much better I usually go to the Glendale or Desert Ridge locations and the food and service is better . Service is very slow here

    Happy. Hour. That's it, that's my review... Fine apparently I need more words. It's only $5 actual US dollars per plate. Margs are only $5. Service amazing. Atmosphere is solid. AND you can order tacos. If this doesn't make you happy nothing will. Also the margs are strong and I'm about to go dancing.

    Chips and salsa
    Ashley H.

    My family and I really liked the appetizers! The queso fundido and the nachos were delicious. The chips and salsa were also good and the chips were warm!! A newer restaurant so the service is a little slower. I feel like going here for happy hour would be great because of the prices! Ambiance is nice and clean too.

The restaurant was about half-full and bustling brightly indoors and on the deep shaded wrap-around patio. Our server, Branden, was one of the best servers we've ever had! Attentive and polite, even reading off the entire menu and describing highlights to hubs, who'd never been before. We were seated immediately at a booth table and brought complimentary chips and salsa. These are good fresh, thin chips and smoky mild-hot tasty salsa. Branden brought us a second round of chips and salsa as well. We ordered: - Coca-Cola fountain drink - Coke Zero fountain drink - SHORT RIB MACHACA ENCHILADAS 5/5 - Highly recommend - caramelized peppers & onions, yellow cheese, ancho chile sauce, cilantro. Served with sour cream, guacamole, pico de gallo, rice, & choice of beans. Classic enchilada sauce like how I remember, delicious tender shredded marinated short rib inside. - CARNE ASADA FAJITAS 4/5 (sweet soy salsa verde) served with blistered peppers, charred onions, jack cheese, guacamole, salsa fresca, sour cream, choice of beans & tortillas. Hubs said these were good. He did want rice with his meal so he ended up taking my rice which I didn't want. As you can see in the pics, the tortillas are scratch made in-house as well as the sauces and sides. Bar seating, booth and table, and patio seating available. Men's and women's restroom available for customers.

We…read morewere sat and waited for our server Donte to show up and I don't know if he was new but man he was not a good server. We first ordered drinks my wife got a traditional margarita and I got the jalapeño pineapple margarita. I mean there were ok but definitely have had better. The cups they served it in is not the appropriate cups for this drink. Along with the drinks came the chips and salsa which were surprisingly good. Now the food. My wife ordered the chimichanga with red sauce and i ordered shrimp tacos. Nearly 35 mins later and 2 basket of chips gone our food arrives. Her chimichanga was covered in green sauce not red like she ordered and my shrimp tacos were inedible. The shrimp was sooo hard I literally couldn't pull them apart and the crunch I heard while I tried to chew it (which is a clear indicator that it's way over cooked) grossed me out. When my waiter finally came around, after stopping at the table behind us and the 2 tables in front of us, I let him know how bad these tacos were. He took my food and exchanged it for birria tacos. I didn't have to wait long before my tacos arrived. Again they were good but not great. So as we finished our dinner the waiter was nowhere to be found. 11 mins later he comes outside where we were sitting didn't acknowledge us and once again went to the other tables around us. He does whatever it is the other patrons asked him to and goes back inside. When he comes back out he had a tray of drinks dropping them off at the previous tables mentioned and then once again heads back inside. Luckily I grabbed his attention prior him to completing going inside and asked him for a box. Now I was in the food business for almost 16 years and managed servers in those 16 years. Most servers understand when a patron asks for a box to go that usually means they're done and ready to go, so naturally you'd think as he's retrieving the box you'd bring the check. Nope not Donte he brings the box and walks away. Comes back later to pick up the dirty dishes and continues to walk away again, I had to tell him we wanted our check. With all the choices in downtown for food and drink id avoid this one for sure. To think we were up in the air between this place and Arrogant Butcher. Clearly we chose wrong. And one more thing when food gets returned for whatever reason a manager should make an appearance. Nope not here
