| - Went this past Friday (10/13/2017) and it was a 2+ hour wait at 5:00 for a party of 2. We elected to pass and come back Saturday figuring it was happy hour on Friday hence the long wait time. Returned SATURDAY, 10/14/17 AT 4:00PM!!!! I put this in ALL CAPS due to the time of day we arrived to make a point. Walked up to the hostess station where there were (count em people) 8 girls standing there! We asked for a table for 3 and were told it was a 45+ minute wait. We decided to wait and took a stroll inside to take look around and see if we might be fortunate to find a seat in the "bar area" as we were told by one of the eight girls up front that the bar area is first come first serve. We walked in to see that there were no less than 12 open tables IN THE RESTAURANT! There were more than half of these open tables over in the area right behind the bar inside. Having never been there we stopped a server who seemed very irritated with us stopping him to ask if any of the open tables were considered "bar seating"? We were informed that the only "bar seating" was at the actual bar! We walked outside only to find it confusing, could we sit on the patio outside the bar at the tables, are those only for seated patrons, were all the open tables only for those eating there and if so, why is it a 45+ minute wait when there were open tables everywhere?!? PLEASE NOTE, YOU WILL SEE THESE SAME REFERENCES IN OTHER REVIEWS ON HERE. You get informed of a long wait time, yet there are open tables all over the place? Why have tables if you don't use them? We then strolled back out the front door and saw the smaller patio on the side of the building with a sign that read you could sit there and get "served" drinks while you waited. Okay, so we trotted over there to give that a try and as we started to walk through the gate a not so happy patron walked out and we asked him how the service was there and he said there was NO service and that most everyone was having to go walk up to the bar and serve themselves. Okay so now we have a restaurant with a long wait time, people sitting outside waiting for tables, people waiting to get served for drinks on the little patio with the sign that says that they will be served and nothing is happening here to make us feel that the dining experience would be any better. So it would seem they do not have the ability to provide timely service or food and purposely drag out wait times to stagger patrons so they do not get backed up all at the expense of paying customers. I don't see how that is going to work here. Based on the reviews to date, I see a issue with this place, no management and a crappy experience before you can even get to a table. PASS!!!!!!!!! We left and went to Carlos O'Briens at Norterra which was over 12 miles away, parked, went in and got served drinks, chips and salsa and had our orders for food taken and got to watch the start of the LA Dodgers baseball game then got our text that our table at Barrio Queen was ready after all that time. We got a good laugh out of that and agreed that Barrio Queen is not worth the stress or hassle and keep in mind, we never even got a drink or food there.
