| - food: amazing, full of flavor, soft on your wallet and great quality
cocktails: inventive and strong
and, if i was grading based on these two qualities, the place would surely get a 4 or 5. but, DEAR LORD the service is atrocious. you'd think my beau and i were asking our server to donate her kidney to one of us from the look we got when asked for silverware, water, and a refill on chips. chips that we specifically ordered a side of guacamole for. i will however, say that there is one mystery server who, when he waited on the table next to use told them the specials and gave them a carafe of water. we had no idea specials even existed...
when i went back a few nights later with a friend and sat at the bar, the service was just as poor.
i'll absolutely come back to barrio. the food is amazing, the drinks are top notch, and it's walking distance from my house. but i will not go in to barrio expecting great, timely service. and i certainly wont go in when i'm hungry/crabby and want my chips and salsa refill with a smile.
