| - Since we love Mexican food, I asked an Arizona Yelper what her favorite Scottsdale Mexican place was, and her response was "Barrio Queen" -so there we went.
They have some really creepy artwork inside- check these babies out!

We ate outside on the patio, and that sure filled up quickly, at the end of our stay, the patio and bar were packed.
We started with an order of tableside guacamole for $12. We thought it was just average and there was no offer of the optional customization we have seen at similar restaurants (onion?, no onion? lots of jalapeno?, etc).
Tacos were on special so we had three each at $2.50 a pop. We mixed them up and sampled steak, shrimp, pork, chicken. Our clear favorite was the shrimp- seriously, they were magnificent. The others were just about average.
Our dinner ran around $39, which wasn't too bad. But honestly, I expected a little better quality.
Honestly, the Mexican meal we had in Sedona at 89Agave ran rings around Barrio Queen.
