    Barrio for beer, guacamole appetizer is really good and even had pomegranate seeds for flavor, enchilada azteca for the main course, then have the flan for dessert!!! Pace yourself, you'll need boxes.

    Be there for Taco Tuesday! Back in January I had 4 different tacos for $10! All delicious but the chorizo with pork and crumbled blue cheese is incredible!

    The best Mexican food I've ever had! I had the Molcajetes and it was amazing! This entree gives you the opportunity to taste a lot of different entrees at the same time.

    The mariscos rellanos is tasty whether you enjoy it with corn or flour tortillas. The poblano pepper is stuffed with seafood and covered in a tomatillo sauce. Definitely worth a try!

    French press coarse ground Chiapas coffee has mucho body and pairs well with any of the pan dulces. Conchitas are the first to go but the elotes & cuernitos are excellent. Chilaquiles are bomb!

    The Barrio Pollo Burrito was phenomenal! And the Jalapeño Margarita was excellent. Overall, we really enjoyed Barrio Queen.

    The barrio pollo taco is delicious! It comes with an amazing sauce. I usually think chicken tacos are boring but I'd recommend here.

    Try the awesome table side guacamole. This Mexican favorite is spiced up with the addition of apricots, craisins and golden raisins. Unexpectedly delicious!

    Taco Tuesday is where it's at. House margs, and the chips and salsa and guac are delish.

    The app Carnitas Chili Verde - REALLY GOOD! Wow. Loved my tacos. White Sangria-eh, not so much but get a real coca-cola with sugar cane! Yum. Will return.
  • Charlie Allred S.
    Tuesday night is all night happy hour! Tacos are $2.50 & drinks are $3. Chips and salsa are not free, but well worth the few dollars.

    #ProTip You can't really go wrong on the menu. The Wifi PW is 'ilovebarrioqueen' - great to use in a pinch if you're sending out work emails before thanksgiving.

    Great burritos. They give the option of both green and red chili on/in the burrito. First time ever offered that and love it.

    This is the kind of place where you need to soak it in, sit outside and enjoy every moment. Highly recommend the carne asada.

    All the food is great. The service needs to have the kinks worked out. They've only been open two weeks, though. (1/14/2012)

    Don't sit by the bar! But the food and GUAC was great!! Ask for limes if you get tacos, they are kinda bland. I highly recomend!!!

    Pretty good. If you like awesome street tacos, check out Milagro grill or la condesa instead.

    5-6 soft tacos is less than $20 and is perfect as a main course.
