Came here on a Friday evening around 7 when we weren't in the mood to bro out with the locals. Surprisingly empty! They were out of arepas AND guacamole, which was a major bummer - but the super friendly guys working were really apologetic.
I ended up getting a loaded rice bowl, and the obvious comparison to Chipotle arose (Barroco's chicken is more flavorful). Fresh and satisfying but nothing mind-blowing. My husband got the pulled pork sandwich, I believe, which again was satisfying but not spectacular.
Okay, I just added one more star because the dudes working were just so delightful. They gave us a free heap of creamed corn cheesy plantains, which was ridiculous and a heart attack but fun to try.
I'd return to try their arepas and guac - and because the prices, though a bit higher, do rival Chipotle's.
Apparently, it's attached to a liquor store, and the smell of cigars was pretty intense. But I guess it's convenient!
