MarciMay 28, 2016The 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 MayotteMay 29, 2013Enchilada 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 BarnessJanuary 15, 2017Wonderful service and delicious food! Get the Bloody Mary it was fantastic!
Mary SAugust 28, 2015Finally, a great margarita for under ten dollars!!!! The food was also awesome. Try the swordfish tacos.- Zach Solomon-BeloinFebruary 4, 2015Stop by for taco Tuesday! Great tacos and the chips, salsa and bean dip is great
Anna TNovember 16, 2015less crowded than Casa des Reyes, but still decent food, good service and warm atmosphere!

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.
ValentinoFebruary 14, 2014I had the bbq brisket platter and was not disappointed. I loved the atmosphere of the place as well.
Ray KwongSeptember 4, 2013Kids eat free here everyday versus the Fiesta restaurant next door which doesn't have that offer.

Szoke SteveJanuary 1, 2011corona light with a salted glass, lime and lime juice (house standard) OMG new way to drink beer, Margarita style!
Captain AwesomeOctober 19, 2011Don't bother with the $5 marg... splurge the $10 and get the bulldog. Also, the $2 tacos are good, but juicy!
Esme TillotsonSeptember 5, 2010Cinco de Mee-Yo, celebrate your birthday on the 5th of your birthday month with free food (up to $12) with a drink purchase.
Muerto TequilaSeptember 15, 2012Try the NEW Muerto Sunrise!!! Or the Muerto Reposado / Plata tequila!
Anthony SullivanApril 27, 2014Don'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!
DominicSeptember 4, 2011Go to coyote cafe instead. This place may have good drinks but the food is frozen, canned and unoriginal compared to others in old town
- JonApril 29, 2010The "best" margarita is just mix with a little booze added. Not even the real thing.

- Steven CareyMay 28, 2011This 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.
Jose GraciaMay 29, 2011Horchata and jamiaca drink is watered down and they said it was fine. Tortillas not as good as Los Coyote restaurant. Service was okay.
