    Taco special and a horchata.

    Always my first stop in TC. Delicious tacos and bowls. Fantastically inventive drinks. Try the purple horchata, if it's in the case.

    Little Mexico in TC Michigan

    First time at Spanglish!! This place is a little bit of Mexico in cold Traverse City!!did not seem there was enough room, some how they squeezed a lot of tables & chairs in a small space! Quite creative! The atmosphere was quite chill with your 60s & 70s music vibe! The restaurant staff was patient and helpful! They knew what they're doing and what they're talking about, at least that is what it seemed like!. The Burrito was huge, messy and delicious it's like Mexican food with a twists! The food may seem pricey but it's 100% worth it. I hope to be back again someday! I recommend this place!

    The burrito is filling. It had flavorful beef. I think it's a little over priced though. Overall I'd say it's good, but nothing spectacular.

    Very cool place. Very fresh. Shareable food. Order of quesadilla = 3 quesadillas . Kids menu too. Nice people. Fun place

    Great spot for a quick bite! Would recommend their tacos over tostadas. Love that the tortillas are double layered - there's so much meat and veggies that you could easily get 2 tacos out of 1.

    This is the outside entrance.

    I love that we found this place. I had just mentioned I didn't get to see the mental asylum. Who knew this would be a hidden gem. I had really good carnitas tacos. It's a small place, but cute and busy.

    There is a lovely creek next to the restaurant.

    Lovely restaurant that happens to be nestled next to a creek. There is also a trail nearby that can be explored after the meal. Would highly recommend!

    Best authentic Mexican food I have had in TC. Staff is very friendly. I will be coming back very…read moresoon!

    My mind was absolutely blown…read more I love Northern Michigan for a number of reasons, but I never imagined I'd include Mexican food to the list. This place definitely is an undiscovered gem. We ordered the fajitas, a burrito, and tried the famous white fish taco. I mean- White fish taco sounds good, but there was something truly magical about that experience. I'm struggling to put it into words even now. You just have to eat it to believe. Honestly, the location for this place seems terrible. You'd never know it was there unless you went out of your way looking for it. It's hidden in a largely empty plaza, and I drove the car past three times before we finally spotted it. We placed our order at the front before seating ourselves. The employees were incredibly friendly and helpful as we decided what we wanted to order. The food came out hot and amazing. Oh it was such a surprise and comfort. I just really wish they offered horchata. l was just really in the mood for a horchata to complete my meal, and this would make it a homerun for me. But the food was so rewarding, I can get over myself. We'll definitely be back the next time we're in town. Baby Tag Along Edition: Bringing in a carseat for our little one was easy enough. There are tables inside to eat and plenty of space for us to bring the carseat inside with us. I only wish they offered the Carseat Cradle that would let baby sit with us at eye level.

    Barrio is a must-visit spot while in Traverse City. Although it originally hails from Cleveland…read more(which we've also visited), the flavors and service have carried over beautifully to Michigan. The vegan options here are fantastic. I love that I can choose the Thai chili tofu as my protein, and it's actually good tofu -- firm, crispy, and flavorful instead of the usual mushy version you find elsewhere. The customization is another huge plus. You can load your tacos with far more than the standard lettuce and tomato, choosing from a variety of slaws, salsas, sauces, and toppings. My personal favorite combination is the Dirty Sauce (definitely spicy, so be warned!) with lettuce, poblanos, onions, and the corn mix. The tacos are generously sized, so 2-3 will leave you completely satisfied, and the pricing is very reasonable for the quality and portion sizes. This is also a perfect place for larger groups or families. We have friends who love bringing their kids because everyone can fill out their own order form and customize exactly what they want. I have to recommend the salsa roja and chips as an app. It's easily one of my favorite salsas. It has the perfect consistency with just the right balance of spice and sweetness. We love coming here and highly recommend giving it a try. You won't be disappointed!

    We visited Barrio in Traverse City, late night bites. The place was hopping with parties, but we…read morewere seated right away. The service was speedy & friendly, very refreshing! The margaritas were tasty, as well as our appetizers, the Tres Amigos. We built our own tacos from a list, very cool. Everything was fresh, delicious, and the portions were large. We will definitely be back!
