    Happy hour was a hit! We were able to sit on the patio, so the noise level was subdued. Drinks were ordered, chips&salsa delivered, and we got to chat. Our server was attentive without hovering or being invasive, which was a win. Food and drinks were very tasty. We'll go back soon

    Happy Hour and their specials are a great deal but overall the regular prices are high. It’s really loud and hard to talk.

    This was the most bland Mexican food we have ever ate. The only seasoning was on the French fries. Their salsa had absolutely zero flavor. Service was just ok, had to wait awhile for anything we asked for (tortillas for the fajitas, refills, to go boxes). Beautiful decor was basically the only thing going for them.

    Server started clearing the table before I was finished. It was crowded, business was slow. Hard to understand what the rush was to get us out.

    Overall the food was quite good. Service was fine. I was a bit disappointed in the short rib birria tacos. Meat was tender, but no signs of birria, in fact, slightly dry. I have had hundreds of birria tacos in Mexico, and these were a far cry.
    Barrio Queen - SurpriseResponded on 12 March 2025
    Hi Ken, Thank you for your review of Barrio Queen. We're glad to hear you enjoyed the overall food and service. However, we’re sorry to learn that the short rib birria tacos fell short of your expectations, especially given your experience with birria in Mexico. Your feedback is valuable, and we will take action to look into this with our culinary team. We appreciate you sharing your thoughts and hope to have the opportunity to serve you better in the future.

    While the food was good, it was rather bland. Both my husband and I had the Chile Relleno dinner and we both agreed it was rather underwhelming as far as taste. It was loaded with vegetables and not too much cheese (which was a plus). We’ve had better though. As far as the salsa was concerned, it tasted like watered down tomato juice. Not impressed at all. Chips were good though.

We appreciate you sharing your experience, and we hope to welcome you back for a better visit in the future. Thank you!
