    Loved the decor inside, felt upscale and sophisticated. The food was delicious! We went during a very slow time of the day, but service was great.

    La Sucia arepa with maduros
    Juan J.

    I ate here with friends for the first time a few weeks ago. The vibe inside was pretty chill. Four of us were able to converse across the table without yelling. Most of the food was delicious with a couple sour notes. The servers were friendly, my sangria was excellent and the bartender was quite personable. The price point isn't too high for the area. I ordered the "La Sucia" carne asada arepa with sweet plantain as the side. Arepas are El Salvadoran comfort food but they tried to dress them up a little with the plating. They were well seasoned and very filling. The maduros were tasty although not quite as sweet as I prefer and I would have been happier with a larger portion.‍ My buddy ordered the yucca fries which came out looking like little white cubes and tasted eating a dried blending sponge. Another friend ordered french fries and got the best bang for his buck. They were heaped on his plate, hot, fresh and cooked perfectly. Lesson learned. I may try the lomo saltado next time. A nice addition to the Larchmere lineup.

    Tostadas con todo
    Amanda G.

    We have been so excited to have a Barroco in this very walkable neighborhood! We stopped in on a Saturday night and were so happy to be seated in a relaxing dining room. The decor is lovely and the noise level was quiet and pleasurable. In the mood to try something different, we opted for the tostadas con todo. Every part of this dish was delicious! And it was perfect for sharing. Our service was friendly and fairly attentive. This is sure to become our favorite location and it's a great neighborhood to walk around and enjoy the evening afterwards!

    Let me begin by saying that I love Barroco..... in Lakewood. However, the Larchmere location not so much. The food is still amazing, but the decor and atmosphere here just isn't the same. Our service was horribly slow on a day when there may have been at most 5 tables in the place. Our server was kind, but just not attentive and often absent. But the worst part of our experience is when we received our bill. We had 2 pitchers of Coconut Mojitos. We were charged $26 AND $120. That equals $146 for two pitchers. They inadvertently charged for 2 drinks & 2 pitchers, which they fixed. However.... Lakewood charges $42 per pitcher. Larchmere charges $60 per pitcher. This is a totally unacceptable difference. The pitchers are app 4.5 drinks, at $13 per glass you're looking at $58.50, if bought separately. I did speak with management who could not explain the difference, but said he'd speak with the owner and get back with us. That was 15 days ago. A discrepancy like that should've been addressed right there and then. All I'm saying is there is a clear difference from Lakewood to Larchmere, and you're better off avoiding Larchmere.

    New menu. Sad I was looking for the old menu

    There's a new menu and I was not expecting that. Ambience is still nice but so missing the original menu like at Crocker and before!

    "banana" split! plaintains and ice cream!
    Kevin N.

    Went to Barroco on Larchmere for a quick monday night dinner with a friend. Larchmere is a super cute strip with lots of food and shops. A great area to explore! It was happy hour when we arrived and my friend had a yummy $5 passion fruit mojito. I guess each day has a different happy hour. For food, my main was the montañera arepa. It was loaded with braised beef and topped with a runny luscious fried egg. The cheese was meaty and added great flavor to the dish. I found the corn part of the arepa slightly disappointing for such a strong flavor profile on top; I'm wondering if it's just a slow monday night thing, but the arepa seemed weirdly reheated and a little dry. For my side, I had the maduros (fried plain rain). They were sweet and tender and yummy! But only four of them. Honestly, the $16 here seems a little unwarranted for a dry arepa base, but tbh I would be down to go back with some friends and try again, because this place was pretty fun. My friend also ordered a madurai chorizo queso which was a great starter. The cheese flavor was great, and the chips crispy. We also split a plantain banana split which was amazing. Friend plantain with big scoops of ice cream and all the typical banana split fixings like pineapple and strawberry. If you're in the area I would hit this place up! I will be returning to try again, and excited to see it on a busier weekend night :)

    This is a delicious Mexican restaurant located in Larchmere. It's often not busy has a great vibe a good happy hour and excellent drinks and food to dry. They have indoor and outdoor seating plus live music on Mondays and Friday evenings. Parking is on the street and free if you come after 6 PM. They also have valet close by. I recommend trying the tacos for sangria or any of the things on the brunch menu. They have fast and friendly service with a great selection of brunch, lunch and dinner foods. They also have a nice selection of desserts and are happy to celebrate a birthday if needed.

    I was just here with my coworkers. The place is absolutely gorgeous and it had a really fun vibe. Parking was not too bad and we were able to get street parking. I can't comment on the bathrooms because I didn't use the restroom at the place BUT let's talk about the most important part ...the food and drinks. When you first go in they give you a complimentary tequila shot in a lime which we thought was cute. We got stuff off their happy hour menu and the drinks were OKAY. One huge negative was the cucumber jalapeno gimlet which almost ripped a hole through my esophagus. I have had been a cucumber jalapeno gimlets at one of the locations where the seed of the jalapeno was not in the drink. It was so unbelievably spicy then I had to take a spoon out and remove all the jalapenos with the seeds. I could have literally formed two whole jalapenos from one drink. It was not good. Because I had paid for it my co-workers and I decided that we just finished it and stick it through. We got the arepas. I didn't have the bread portion mainly because it was so hard to eat. It was extremely difficult to bite into. They did have live music which was nice. I'm not really sure if I would go back here again. There's definitely a lot of room for improvement.

    Pina colada mojito
    Willainia S.

    I love this place! I didn't know that I even liked Colombian food until I tried an arepa. YUM! The drinks are also quite delicious. TIP: Each day there is a special on a different drink. I suggest calling ahead and then committing it to memory. The Ambiance will definitely stimulate your retina. Plenty of bright colors and decor to take in. The first time I went I did a shot of tequila out of lime on the house. This is not everyday thing but I was there on a Friday. Lastly, they sometimes have live music for your listening pleasure.

    My friends and I drove to Cleveland just to have their food from Pittsburgh. While my friends have tried their other locations, this was my first time. My friends are from Panama and told me the food here is very authentic tasting. Just by walking in the door we were offered complimentary tequila shots from lime halves. I knew I'd like this place after that, halfway through our visit we were offered another! The restaurant seating area is sort of crammed and small - on Saturday night with the live band it was popular and had a line. We made it before then. We ordered fruit beer, coconut mojitos, and red sangrias - each in a jar size glass for $9 each. All pretty delicious though the mojito was very thick and had to poor water in it midway thru in order to finish it. We had delicious meals - I attached all of my photos! Pork arepa, steak arepa, empanadas among other entrees we ordered. Excuse my ignorance I forgot what everything was called but the pork was super tender. Black bean soup was tasty! We also had flan for dessert which was a nice ending. The band, dancing, and atmosphere was awesome! Service was excellent as well. All food came within 15 mins tops. Recommend!

    Barroco has potential, and is probably really good if you are a carnivore, but as a pescatarian I found it to be a bit wanting. Located on Larchmere in a spot that has been the home to a couple of different restaurants, Barroco has done a nice job of making the space feel funky and eclectic. The menu is lengthy, although it seems to take more space without providing a lot of actual items to select from. Since there are not fish or seafood items on the menu, I ended up ordering one of the Arepas, using the option to substitute potatoes for the meat. Since I wanted to try some things, I got the yuca fries as my side, plus got a small order of guacamole and a side of maduros. The arepa was openface with potatoes, onions, peppers, cheese and a fried egg. The arepa was ok, but the ingredients kind of all blended together and the egg was slightly overcooked so that the yolk did not provide the yummy oozy sauce it should have. I did try Barroco's different sauce, and they were alright, but nothing special. The yuca fries were little cubes that seemed like slightly more starchy potatoes. The maduros were nicely caramelized plantains, good but not great. The guacamole, was nice, a bit chunky, but could have been more flavorful. Overall, not a bad dinner, but nothing great. I believe that Barroco is probably better if you eat meat or chicken; it does provide vegetarian options, but they strike me as a bit half hearted, especially at the price they are charging.

    Beef empanadas for happy hour special!
    Ashley C.

    Their happy hour is so great! For Monday-friday 3-6 they have often $5 drink specials and half off appetizers. The appetizers personally are enough for a meal. I've gotten the bacon wrapped maduros and the beef empanadas which were both very great and full of flavor! I did not like the balsamic vinegar and queso as much with the plantains, but their other sauces they provide are great, especially the chimichurri. Their drinks are also great! I've had the mojito and it comes with a stick of sugar cane and plenty of fresh mint which was a nice addition. The two times I've gone I see the staff greet others who are clearly regulars which is so nice to see! There is also live music certain days and the interior is very unique. Would definitely go again!

    Caparinha!

    This place has been open since August and shame, shame, shane on me for just now visiting! Family owned and operated, with a few friends in their new East side location in eclectic Larchmere, it is a welcomed spot to hang. Family Angie, is a fresh breath to help you navigate the broad and extensive menu. She is honest with sharing the 411 on what is more filling, what is a lighter fare and what you must absolutely need to order today or next visit. We ordered the Sancocho de Dona Liliana Sopa (soup) deconstructed with a bowl of rice, sliced avacados and an aji salsa to mix as you enjoy. Served HOT and savory... Yum tum tum! The Arepas are enough for me to eat dinner, and share the leftovers the next day with my Mommy! The Bosa Nova and Latin Vibe's are filling the air with incredible free music, no cover! Oh, last but certainly not least...the Bartenders are on point with the cocktails! Ooo, are they lovely! Tequila shots come in a squeezed out lime! Will i return... Oh hell yes! Will be one of my new stomping grounds! I could go on and on... Come support local!

    Is it wheelchair accessible? I see steps going up the front entrance, but is there a ramp on the side?

    No. From what I recall there are only steps in the front. I'm not certain about the back.

    You ever randomly realize it's Empanada Day... and suddenly your entire day has a mission?…read more Yeah... that was me, this week. Soooo we took our appetites on a long-overdue visit to CentroVilla25 on W. 25th, which is basically a passport in food hall form -- multiple Latin kitchens under one roof, each bringing their own flavor. You don't go here for a meal... you go here to explore. But let's be real... we came with a purpose - Empanadas. We grabbed: Beef Steak Buffalo Chicken Piorino (plantain + beef + mozzarella ) They were crispy-on-the-outside, steamy, flavor-packed pockets of happiness The shells had that perfect blistered crunch -- not greasy, not soggy -- just that light crackle when you bite in. You know the one. Highlight - Piorino - This one STOLE the show. Sweet plantain + savory beef + melty cheese? That combo is unfair. Sweet, salty, cheesy... it hits from every delicious angle. And because we don't make rookie decisions... We followed it up with a piña colada topped with whipped cream and fresh pineapple like we were on vacation instead of W. 25th

After waiting about 10 minutes with no acknowledgment from anyone, I decided to at least check out the restroom while I waited... and that's when everything went downhill. The floors were extremely sticky--every step literally felt like my shoes were pulling off the ground. It didn't feel clean at all. As I got closer to the restroom area, there was a strong smell of what I can only describe as wet, moldy rags. The bathroom itself was dark, oddly designed, and just gave an overall uncomfortable vibe. What made it worse is that the place wasn't even busy--there was only one table and a couple people at the bar. So the lack of service and cleanliness really stood out. By the time I walked back to the bar, I had already made up my mind. No one had still acknowledged me, and based on the condition of the place, I wasn't willing to take a chance on the food. I grabbed my things and left. Later on, I mentioned it at another restaurant and was told this place is known for poor food quality and lack of authenticity--which honestly aligned with what I experienced just from being inside. I can't speak on the food since I didn't stay, but based on cleanliness, smell, and service alone, I would not recommend this spot. It gave the impression that basic upkeep isn't a priority, and that's not something I'm willing to overlook.

There were 6-7 other guests in the restaurant but beyond the music, it was very chill in there. I took a seat at the bar and I was promptly greeted by a nice guy behind the counter. He explained the taco ordering process to me, showing me the order form and even sharing his personal favorites. I love the ordering form! It's cool to see all of the options in one spot, the choices were extensive. I decided to go with 1 specialty taco, the La Tierra, 1 chicken taco and 1 steak taco. I also got a side order of guacamole and pico de gallo. I'm so bummed that I don't remember the second sweet guy who assisted me, I believe it started with a D. He was the sweetest! About 15 minutes after I ordered, he came back with his hands full of bags. We both looked at each other and laughed because, why did y'all give me all of these bags?! LOL. Turns out they bagged each item separately (paper bag and a plastic bag). I felt so greedy omg. I had to quickly rebag it all before I walked out, lol. My tacos were delicious! Albeit, a little soggy due to the sauces I requested to have on them. The guacamole and pico were also delicious but a bittttt too salty and limey.
