Great food and great service. Very good suggestion, our waitress Ava was really amazing!

Great dinner at Barrio in Tremont. Decent seating options inside but the they have a large outside patio that is spacious and offered great outside dining. Pretty good service and friendly staff. Chips and guac were fresh and tasted good. Tacos were great as always. Tired a new taco this trip, smash burger. Flavor was incredible, must try it if you like smash burgers. read more

Was pretty much a disaster as soon as we arrived. It was before a Guardians game so I give them that but game started at 7 we didn't get our food til 830 and the orders were pretty messed up, server kept telling us she'd bring more chips then reappearing in 20 minutes without the chips of course, telling us 5 minute wait for our food, 20 minutes later telling us half our food was ready waiting for the other half so of course half was cold by the time we got it. One order was so burnt she said cook could remake it but we didn't want to wait another 2 hours said she'd take it off our bill of course she didn't she had to be reminded.My dish was very good but after all this I'd lost my appetite. Wasn't thrilled with their menus either. read more

I haven't been to Barrio in 10 years. I remember the tacos being great the first time around, but what got me this time around was the build-your-own nachos. My friends and I went to Barrio around 7:30pm on a Thursday. The place looked exactly as I remembered it with the calaveras. Service was ok. Our server, Christina, was great, but the food took forever to be made. I couldn't believe how long it took to make nachos. We each customized our nachos. I made mine like a surf and turf with both steak and shrimp. Other toppings included diced onions and cilantro, rojo sauce, Barrio special sauce, and 3 additional cold cheeses on top of the melted queso blanco. I was highly disappointed with my nachos. The chips were thin and got soggy easily. They skimped on the proteins, and the shrimp was very salty. I should've skipped out on the cold cheeses, because they really overpowered the warmth and comfort from the queso blanco. Lastly, the cilantro was inexistent. read more

I do enjoy this place every time I come. Had some colleagues in from Toronto and Texas and brought them in for a try. They really enjoyed it! Tacos and bowls were delicious and the blood orange margarita is one of my favorites. read more

I don't get why this place is so popular, it's pretty mid. The margs are weak and overly sweet. The tacos are average, every protein/sauce combination ends up tasting the same. Service is inconsistent but always kind, just feel like the place is understaffed and needs better management. The ambience is great actually but the food and drinks are just lackluster I wouldn't go for anything more than a beer and free chips and salsa. 2/5 read more

Tacos were average at best. The guac queso and chips were good. Chips were hearty and made fresh!

Put barrio behind bars because their build a tacos are a steal! Food 3.5/5: tacos are a great size (not those scrawny tiny ones you get at some places) and very filling. The ingredients were fresh and the sauces were scrumptious! 3 tacos, chips and salsa and a size of queso came out to 14$ ambiance 4.5/5: the indoor gives average pub but the outside patio is perfect in the warm weather. Nice music, good shade under the umbrellas and doggos are allowed too! service 3/5: clearly understaffed, the servers were very friendly but it did take over an hour to get 3 tacos. Come if you aren't in a rush and don't mind waiting! tips: - don't overdose on the sauces, otherwise the tacos will be WAY TOO WET - the "hot sauces" aren't that hot!! - 1$ off tacos on happy hour read more

Located the trendy Tremont neighborhood of Cleveland, Ohio, Barrio is a local chain serving up a vibrant fiesta of tacos dizzying variety, tasty tequila, and chill good vibes. The interior decor harkens a lively Mexican cantina. The walls are adorned with colorful murals, festive papel picado banners. Their outdoor patio is open during the warmer months that's always lively with sounds of conversations and tables are mostly shaded with umbrellas. The star of the show at Barrio are the tacos (they offer a couple bowl options as well). With a vast selection of signature creations and build-your-own options, there's something to satisfy every craving. "Carne Asada" and "Barrio Chorizo" tacos are my favorite for their kick of aromatic spices Barrio's margaritas did not disappoint. Any of these drinks are rich in flavor while also being boozy. Try their Margarita flight to get a wide range of taste or savor one or multiple of their specials. You can't go wrong. The service at Barrio is friendly most times. My server was knowledgeable about the menu and offered helpful recommendations. The food arrived promptly. fantastic spot for a casual and delicious dining experience in Tremont neighborhood, especially if you're looking for a fun and festive night out with friends or family. read more

I got 4 tacos here with mushrooms and pineapple salsa. They were delish! I usually get hard shell it was March 2025 and my first visit to any barrio - I sure had been missing out. I will probably order delivery next time or pick up if they have it :) I would like to get the same thing again ! read more

wonderful service , Holly was very attentive friendly and made us feel welcomed ! food was great !

Decent Taco for happy hour. Cheap, filling, with great drinks. I always try to get to Barrio when I'm in Cleveland, as their happy hour is hard to beat if you are in the mood for mexican. Their margaritas are great, lots of options and cheap. Make sure you order 1 or 2 while you are here. The tacos have a lot of options. You get a sheet where you can customize it however you want. Lots of options for the taco, protein, veggies, sauce and extras. Give the tofu a try! read more

Barrio - Bars Near Me - Cleveland, Ohio

A bar, not a taco bar. I want to be fair and say that if there was a 2.5 star rating, I would give it but I cannot justify 3 stars. Normally I wouldn't leave a review but there is no way this place deserves above 4 stars. I'll start by saying the food looks a lot better than it tastes and I tried literally one of everything (8 tacos total) and none of them impressed us in the slightest. For a place named "Barrio Tacos" these are more of experimental food truck tacos than Mexican or fusion tacos. It's more of a gimmick bar than a restaurant. The customer service was fine. The hostesses were friendly but I could tell did not want to be there. The server brought all the tacos at the same time which was fine but she didn't explain which was which but it was kind of fun figuring it out ourselves, I guess. We finished one taco, that tasted like a McDonalds Big Mac and the rest were left half eaten. The 'Hot As Cluck' taco was supposed to have Mac & Cheese but was in fact, no joke, plain noodles with shredded cheese (although the coleslaw and chicken on it were good). Finally when you get the check, the lowest gratuity option is 18% which normally I'd be happy to give but after being so disappointed I reluctantly selected it adding $11 to an already overpriced and overrated experience. Also, it's one of those awkward restaurants that brings the Point-Of-Sale tap to pay to your table so you sort of feel pressured to not leave a custom tip. Overall, it's more of a good bar that serves mediocre food than a real restaurant that serves good drinks. read more

We had a great evening on the patio - loved my Paloma and tacos! We also had the Buffalo chicken queso and it was something I want to replicate at home. The folks working were friendly and showed a lot of pride in working at Barrio, highlighting their favorites and the art around the space. read more

Before I head into the cons, they were a few pros of this place i'd like to get into. The ambiance is actually quite nice and I really enjoyed the atmosphere and seating. The pricing was also not too terrible with only $4.15 per taco and $10 for nachos or a bowl. Unfortunately, the soft shell tacos I ordered and the rest of my parties food came out cold, not even slightly warm. Not just the tortilla, even the meat, although still somehow completely cooked. Service was mediocre at best, but even that is tough to say. The waitress came to our table only once to refill our drinks of mostly just water and even when one of my party guests explicitly asked for a refill we never received it. The food was also just pretty bad. I wish I could say at least the food tasted okay but it seriously was not very good. I can't say I would recommend this place to any friends or family, or anybody else. read more

Brunch busy times we stoped by. Nice restaurant and great ambiance, music is a little too loud for my personal taste. The tacos are their best; they have brunch menu which I ordered cowboy and it was delicious! The other taco I ordered was El Jefe which is a classic of Barrio. I would suggest to get a "seasonal or flavorful guac or queso. Blanco queso is okay. read more

Always, always a fantastic time here! Great ambiance, service and food. These folks run a simple menu, a great drink selection, and they do it right. The staff member with the headband always makes my day. Always upbeat and friendly, dripping like he just shot an 80's MTV video (that's meant to be a compliment; if it's not, I'm sorry. I'm a 50-something dude trying my best!), and attentive to everything going on. If he's not the owner, he needs a raise as for me, he's 75% of the great experience there. If the weather is even remotely decent, sit outside, get an Elvis Juice and a few tacos, and enjoy the vibe! read more

Came here for dinner with my cousin and her friend during a recent trip to Cleveland. I have pretty high expectations for good Mexican food since I live in Los Angeles, but this place did not disappoint and I actually find myself craving it now that I am back home. I love their queso so much and their tacos are absolutely delicious. I ordered a lychee margarita and the server politely corrected my pronunciation of the word lychee even though the way I pronounced it (I am Filipino and I grew up eating them) was correct. read more

I never order specials and decided today to order 4 different kinds. Tacos were made fast and to go order was easy to do (done through phone call) Hot as click -- not that spicy. I liked the crisp but i don't know if all of the flavors meshed in one bite El sully -- bomb. Probably more of a classic taco but I could've had a couple of these easy. Chorizo was great and that sauce should be kept secret. Bomba de tocinoa -- I believe I got 3 big bacon slices which made me quite pleased! Bacon was super good and had a great thickness. The aioli was a perfect sauce for this taco. La Tierra -- probably my least favorite of the four. The mushrooms meshed with the steak and I couldn't really taste them separately and it all just tasted mushy because of the mushroom. None of the tacos were actually that spicy or as spicy as they advertised. Spicy is easily managed. read more

Visited the Cleveland area with a buddy for browns game. This was our favorite food establishment we visited. Very cool decor and we received great service. The free chips and salsa was great. Salsa may have the best flavor I've ever tasted in a red salsa. I ordered the cowboy taco which was a on the menu with tacos places together for you. And it was awesome. Great tasting taco. Maybe best I've ever had. My buddy created his own tacos with the grade school test looking menus and his number two pencil. He was a huge fan of his 3 tacos as well. Place was phenomenal and was very happy. I do have a complaint and concern but not enough to take away the five star as the covid era hopefully won't last forever. But here it is. Me and a buddy came and they only gave us one thing of salsa. So in the middle of a pandemic we have to share a salsa we both dipped in. Also the pencils and papers to pick Your tacos is risky with covid. I seen people leave the table Get bussed and people sit down at table And the pencils and papers that are touched all over and used aren't swapped out or sanitized. So it does seem like a covid hotbed. Which I know it's a risk when going out. But they could do better of containing possible spreads. read more

Barrio was a decent dinner stop today. The place is fine. The service was good. We had a trainee waiter and both he and the experienced guy paired up to do a good job. The ordering experience is unique in that you custom order these tacos on a checklist tear sheet. There are a lot of options. They do have a chef recommended sheet, but as a vegetarian, there weren't a lot of prescribed options. Not to worry, there are plenty of veggie options in the checklist. Hmm... The couple of tacos I ordered were fine. I think the crispy shell I ordered dominated the taste of the things I got as fillings. Maybe I didn't customize the order well, but maybe it takes multiple visits to figure it out. Idk, but this was my only time in the area. So... I'd have to defer to another visit. The chips and salsa were good. Margarita Perfecto was kind of ok. read more

First time in the land and I saw Barrio had a high rating. I'm a taco enthusiast and love to see how people can reimagine this iconic food. Little did I know my time and money would be wasted. I waited 40 minutes for 4 tacos that you would find in the secret menu of a Taco Bell. Felt like high school workers get bored and start throwing random things together. The Camaron Agrietado was definitely the saddest taco of the bunch. 5 shrimp, kale, barely any sauce, and ice cold white rice in a flour tortilla. Second worst was El Sully, the chorizo was overly salty and had a soy-like consistency, not the regular pork feel I'm used to. El Jefe Loco was actually ok and La Tierra is the only reason I'm giving this a 2nd star. Actually great flavor and absolutely stood out from the rest. As consolation for waiting an extremely long time, I received chips and salsa and it tasted exactly like Pace chunky salsa. If they managed to figure out their recipe, that's impressive otherwise they're just selling canned salsa under the guise of "house salsa" read more

Barrio - a portrait of a woman with a veil - Bars Near Me - Cleveland, Ohio

I actually had never been here before today. We ordered queso before our food along with I believe jalapeño shots. The queso was queso blanco and it was good for what it was. The jalapeño tequila shots were really tasty. If you don't like spicy, I would not order these.... If you like tequila & spice, then order three like I did lol. I ordered three soft flour tacos, and honestly I should have done my review sooner so I could list what I ordered, but the final product was delicious. Luckily we came right when they opened and it was happy hour so of course the drinks didn't stop for a while. Our waitress was very attentive and kind which I always appreciate. Being out in a snowy cold Winter Monday made this lunch visit all worth it. Will certainly be returning. read more

Cool spot with make your own tacos! The vibe was fun with day of the dead decorations everywhere and I loved the idea of the notepads taking your order! Food was good, loved the queso with the chips-that's a definite must! The tacos themselves were alright, seemed to be lacking flavor, but that could just be what I selected since I chose the make your own. It would be nice if hot sauce was offered as well. We walked in during brunch time and it definitely picked up. Our server forgot our water orders, but they were pretty busy with bartending and seating all the people coming in, so it was understandable. Otherwise, fun little joint! read more

Barrio - Coca-Cola Steak with Chips con Queso and Salsa and Guacamole - Bars Near Me - Cleveland, Ohio

Yum, yum, yum, yum, YUMMMMMM! Barrio is so freakin' delicious! I've been twice now and have been extremely happy both times. There is definitely an obvious reason that Barrio is always so busy. With (at least) two locations in Cleveland, Barrio knows what they are doing. The tacos here are incredible. They are complex, rich flavors, and have a variety of textures. Their margaritas and cocktails are great as well! I'm a sucker for their double layer tacos with a soft shell on the outside and hard in the inside. Between the two, you can get queso, avocado, and or beans. So so yummy! As for toppings, they have a menu that you can order from, or even better, you can create your own! The ambience in this location is really fun. It's kinda cramped but it's fine. There are a few different dining rooms as well as a large outdoor patio. It is also very loud inside. The (non-traditional but) beautiful Day of the Dead decor is energizing. I love it. The service here is OK, nothing amazing but we definitely got the food we ordered and eventually, the drinks too. I will continue to come back every time I'm in Cleveland! read more

Barrio - Bars Near Me - Cleveland, Ohio

This restaurant has possibility, but also some problems. The build-your-own taco idea is ok, but the kitchen sent out mixed-up orders that lacked items. Unfortunately, the server never bothered to check to see if the order was ok--I had to track her down. The tacos were ok, but were served on cold tortillas. Apparently, they don't really train the servers: Instead of removing an empty chip basket, she plopped down a new basket right on top of the empty one, and when asked for water refills, she kept bringing new glasses. (We must've had a dozen empty water glasses accumulate because she never removed any...). Usually, servers make some attempt to remove empty dishes--ours just sat. The back patio was nice, except for the gross pool of standing water from a drain pipe next to our table. This place could be good, but it needs better service. read more
