Barrio is outstanding. If you have visited you know how good their tacos are, serious culinary skill served at a reasonable price. Each location is a bit different in decor, but they all have the Day of the Dead theme going.
Once in you select exactly what you want using the order pads. I always favor the fish of the day, the mushroom and even the marinated tofu are really good. I also really enjoy the fresh crisp chips and the zesty salsa with a perfect level of heat.
What I have to talk about here is the Sunday Brunch; in addition to the regular menu they add some special items that are outstanding. The Crab Cake taco takes a well seasoned patty of sweet crab meat with enough bread crumbs to hold it together. Layered with avocado, a zesty slaw and a well balanced remoulade you have one of the better crab cakes in town.
What I would not miss is the Barrio French Toast Bowl, a hearty serving of the lushest bread pudding you will find topped with whipped cream. Just sweet enough to hit the taste buds, with hints of cinnamon and vanilla, this is extremely satisfying. When you hit some of the crunchy caramelized bits on top you will be in heaven.
If you like Mexican, Tacos or are just seeking some great food at a reasonable price you have to go to Barrio.
