Margaret McGrawJuly 16, 2013Nice happy hour specials except the premium margarita I like is still $9 ... But the food deals are generous and nice price. The guacamole is perfect.
elizabeth johnsonDecember 4, 2022A classic margarita on the rocks is the way to tell if the place is authentic, and let me tell you this margarita is one of the best I’ve ever had! Love love love this place. Carnitas!
One of the better tasting Corn Chowders I've eaten. Also, they made it look like a piece of art that should be in a gallery instead of on a dinner table.
City PagesAugust 21, 2014Following the success of their initial Nicollet Mall location, Barrio's Lowertown location offers more of the same -- and good thing, too. Read more
Jeff JonesJuly 24, 2015The tortilla chips are great with the fancy salsas. The guacamole is even worth the price. Corn soup is also really nice.- City PagesJanuary 29, 2014In the mood for a Spicy Cocktail? The Enter the Dragon Margarita is the perfect firey drink for these brutally cold days!
Bite SquadMarch 8, 2013Did you know you can now get all that yummy food delivered by- They open up a dance floor and bring in a DJ after hours... One of the best spots in Lowertown after 10 p.m. or so.
Kt ReavelyNovember 27, 2011The vault is a cool lil private room an if it's your bday you get a free shot or desert...the trinity margarita is amazing- Not surprising the specialty is tequila! If you are a connoisseur, you will be in heaven. If you love your tequila mixed, the Caesar Chavez Margarita is amazing. After dinner, the dance floor opens. Read more
Micah LarsonAugust 17, 2014Tequila! Beware thoigh, on busy nights the service takes a sharp nose dive, but the music and dance floor sure helps pass the time.
It's not too busy during the lunch hour on weekdays. Grab a quick taco lunch.
UberX CabbieOctober 20, 2013Frequent stop for my UberX riders. I hear only good things about the menu and the staff. Open during construction of huge new patio.
MelanieJune 24, 2012Had to wait a while for the food but it was worth the wait & they make a nice strong drink which helps:-)
Austin WestermannJanuary 30, 2012The chips and salsa tray is great! Homemade chips and three salsas with varying heat levels! Only $3!
- Lower Town, Saint Paul. Best Tequila bar! Great DJ Friday nights. Food is awesome. Another location in Downtown MPLS on Nicollet Mall. 30+ crowd. Read more
Last time I was there you could get a carafe of a house margarita for like 18 bucks and it was delish! If they still have that, get it
DanNovember 20, 2009Pick a random number between 1 and 134. You won't be disappointed. If Steve tries to get you to eat the scorpion take him up in it (It's crunchy)!
While you're there, buy a shot for a friend who isn't...they send them an email and put their name up on the "Short Board" behind the bar.
If you order good tequila you won't need it, but cantaloupe juice is unbelievably fresh- Get here before 2:00pm on weekdays and rule the $10 taco bar!
Michael FoehseMarch 11, 2010Taco bar is totally legit! Great overall vibe in general- fresh guacamole is superb!
April SchmitzAugust 30, 2011make a reservation, even on a weekday. Don't sit next to bathroom doors.
Blackdog LowertownSeptember 29, 2011if you are looking for Tequila this is the place if not it is a scene.
Natalie DavisJanuary 28, 2012The food is good bt I've been here a few times now and have ALWAYS had awful service. Never enough servers, wait is too long to get food and our check is ALWAYS screwed up.
Chad NeerhofJune 14, 2014This place is a mess. Appetizer comes after your meal. Wait 10 minutes at table for server to acknowledge you. Organization lacking. Will not return
