    Quick and convenient taco spot after having a night around the town. We stopped in on an ever so busy Saturday night. We were promptly seated and asked if we wanted chips & queso which we gladly ordered which was phenomenal. We then ordered our tacos which basically lets you build custom made tacos and bowls with whichever toppings you choose. The best thing about this place is allowing your creativity to flow with the unlimited options for one of the best foods tacos.

    My husband and I went here after a night of drinking. The food was awesome, the atmosphere was great for after a nice bar, the music was just right. The bartender was very friendly and let us do our own thing. My husband had 2 of the El Vegano, he really liked it, it had good flavor and was extremely filling. I had the El Jefe Loca, which was soooo good. Everything went well together and I also put some of the Mango salsa from our appetizer chips. I also had I think was El Sully, it was also delicious either way. Had a great time here and was really good late night spit in Cleveland. I would def come again...we both would hah!

    Wow. This is one of the best places to get Mexican and tacos you can make your own taco anyway you like it. Fun atmosphere with lots of really cool paintings on the wall. Service was quick and they explained to us how to get the best taco I've ever had. We also ordered the fresh warm chips and salsa which was delicious.

    If you're doing dry January make this a stop! The only place I've seen that doesn't charge the same price for an NA drink (only $5!) - as usual the tacos and burrito bowls are fabulous and their salsa is my fav of all time. A true Cleveland must stop if you're an out of towner or heading to a game downtown. Always a good lively vibe with great service!

    I ordered my taco with a bombshell shell specifically for the taste and texture it provides, and I was disappointed to discover my hard shell, queso and bacon were all missing from my order that I paid extra to experience :(

    We visited Barrio during St. Patrick's Day weekend, expecting a long wait, but we were seated immediately--huge plus! The staff was super friendly, patient, and knew their menu well, which made the experience even better. We ordered the Make Your Own Tacos, which was such a fun and customizable option, along with the Tree Amigos (guacamole, queso blanco, and pico de gallo) and their complimentary Salsa Rojo--all of which were fresh and packed with flavor. We also tried the El Gringo, and it did not disappoint! The food was delicious, and the prices were very reasonable for the quality and portions. The ambiance is definitely on the lively side, as it's both a taco spot and a bar with plenty of seating, so expect some noise. But if you're looking for great tacos, excellent service, and a fun atmosphere, Barrio is a must-visit!

    We ended up here, when our bartender at a downtown brewery recommended their food. So grateful to that bartender. Food was fantastic, we wanted something simple, tacos, seemed to be the way to go. But the flavor was anything but simple! Wonderful taste and presentation. Also the staff (bartender and host at the door) were very kind and helpful. Look forward to again traveling from Upstate New York to Cleveland for a wonderful meal!

    Stopped in one late night on a whim for a quick snack and a drink to try it out. Barrio is not very allergy friendly. Service was very slow on a night where it wasn't very busy. It took over ten minutes just to get a server to order drinks. I asked her to check if there was anything I could eat with my Allium allergy. She was unsure but would check with the kitchen. I think she forgot because 15 minutes later she hadn't came back. I asked again and was told there wasn't. Apparently she just chose not to come tell me. As she was cleaning up to leave for the night. After she left, we asked a different server. Who actually did check. I was able to only get a Cheese Quesadilla from the children's menu. It wasn't anything special. Everything is pre-marinated or pre-made. Drinks were ok. Not a lot of choices of you don't love Tequila. My husband had a taco which he thought was decent. If there wasn't anything else open and I was starving I would maybe return. Otherwise there are plenty of better places in the area

As we looked around the building started to fill up. There are so many different dining options. I love that they have the country of origin on each food stall.

We were given a pager to alert us when our food was ready. After ordering food we went and ordered aqua fresca. They have a huge community kitchen and retail area. There is also a huge patio area.

Now imagine one where all the food is from different countries in Latin America, this is exactly what you will find in Centro Villa 25. Here you will find Puerto Rican, Dominican, Cuban, Salvadoran, and Mexican food shops. There was Latin music playing (not too loud) and there was a common seating area with simple tables and chairs. I was with a big group and there were orders from different shops, but I ordered from my people the Puerto Ricans. I had rice and beans with steak and onions, and a sweet plantain dish with ground beef called pastelon. The food was decent and I wouldn't mind coming back if I was in town, especially if I was craving some back home food. PS - I am regretting not taking pictures, but I am getting better at that.

I wasn't starving, but definitely hungry--and since I don't eat a lot, that always matters to me. I sat at the bar as I was dining alone, and the bartender/waitstaff were exceptional: welcoming, attentive, and really thoughtful about helping me order the right amount of food. They suggested a birria taco and a side of refried beans, and both were outstanding. Simple, flavorful, and perfectly portioned. The decor is fabulous, I love that it's independently owned, and the price point honestly impressed me. A Coca-Cola, one birria taco, and refried beans came in under $15. I'll definitely be back. A great Ohio City gem.

After waiting about 10 minutes with no acknowledgment from anyone, I decided to at least check out the restroom while I waited... and that's when everything went downhill. The floors were extremely sticky--every step literally felt like my shoes were pulling off the ground. It didn't feel clean at all. As I got closer to the restroom area, there was a strong smell of what I can only describe as wet, moldy rags. The bathroom itself was dark, oddly designed, and just gave an overall uncomfortable vibe. What made it worse is that the place wasn't even busy--there was only one table and a couple people at the bar. So the lack of service and cleanliness really stood out. By the time I walked back to the bar, I had already made up my mind. No one had still acknowledged me, and based on the condition of the place, I wasn't willing to take a chance on the food. I grabbed my things and left. Later on, I mentioned it at another restaurant and was told this place is known for poor food quality and lack of authenticity--which honestly aligned with what I experienced just from being inside. I can't speak on the food since I didn't stay, but based on cleanliness, smell, and service alone, I would not recommend this spot. It gave the impression that basic upkeep isn't a priority, and that's not something I'm willing to overlook.
