Went there last friday night before a concert we were attending at the Q. The decor was very funky with day of the dead themed decor that jived perfectly with the Barrio Mexican theme. It was very very packed, but it was a friday with rain pouring away on us!! We gave them our info for a table, but managed to squeak in a seat at the bar that we shared til another stool was available. The bartender ignored us for a solid 15 mins...we ordered the al la carte tacos & rice...delish except my rice was ice cold! The ingredients were über fresh & chock full o flavor!! Obviously you pick what YOU want on the tacos, so if it isn't good...you suck at picking toppings lol. We never were given our salsa & chips, which left us very disappointed!
They allowed too many people to crowd the bar area...literally we were butt cheek to9 buttcheek with strangers, and had 2 rows of ppl crowded in behind us ordering from the bar...we non stop had people reaching over us, and hovering as we tried to eat & drink....very uncomfortable!! I really don't think they should allow all these walk ins to just huddle around the bar area like its standing room only, they should have had to wait til the tables are ready or barstools available!
We for sure will be going back, just not on a busy night & time! The Cleveland Heights location had rude staff, so we won't go back to that one, but this one at the Arcade & Tremont one are fab!!
