The best margarita is definitely one of the best. The potato flautas were delish, very excited they were vegetarian friendly . The cheese & chile tamales are great.

Kathy Mayotte

Enchilada and tacos are great - ask for guacamole and salsa . Hubby had corn salad as a side - also delicious!!! Just the right amount of "kick"!

Sigalle Barness

Wonderful service and delicious food! Get the Bloody Mary it was fantastic!

Mary S

Finally, a great margarita for under ten dollars!!!! The food was also awesome. Try the swordfish tacos .

Love coming here. Grab a beer , watch the Thursday football game. Unfortunately NFL network has been canceled at barra barra. Guess I'll have to find a bar that has it.

Katherine Grisaffi

yummy margaritas !!!

Denette

Yummy food and margs !

Anthony Sullivan

Don't come here if you're alergic to dogs like I am. They allow patrons to bring their dogs with them and they could care less about your issues with not being able to breathe. Terrible!

Kathy Mayotte

Yummy salsa and guacamole !!!

Dominic

Go to coyote cafe instead. This place may have good drinks but the food is frozen, canned and unoriginal compared to others in old town

Becky Gillespie

Kids 10 and under eat free on Mondays.

Jon

The "best" margarita is just mix with a little booze added. Not even the real thing.

Scott Morano

Ernie is the best server in the world !!!!!!!!!!!!

Can't beat $5 margs and the tasty flatbread tacos .

Horchata and jamiaca drink is watered down and they said it was fine. Tortillas not as good as Los Coyote restaurant . Service was okay.

Steven Carey

This place has the worst service I've ever received. Margaritas ... Not the best. Asked ditsy waitress for more chips twice and never got em. Messed up drinks. Spilled water on my mom. No compensation.
