It was my birthday weekend and I love to treat myself as a tradition to loaded nachos to celebrate!…read moreI heard somewhere that you cannot consume calories on your birthday. It sounds like a myth, but I'm going with it. Haha! My family and I were able to make a reservation at Barrio Queen, easily via OpenTable. Their patio was available if you wanted to sit out there, but really it was closed because of the heat so we sat inside. We had a nice, spacious booth for the four of us and the hostess was super sweet and accommodated us right away. We were greeted by our server, Hanna, who was absolutely amazing. The service was so fast. She listened to everything and she was super sweet to the kids. The kids got to color while they waited for their milk and they ordered off of the kids menu. It's very family, friendly and for 8 to 9 dollars you can get your meal, drink, side, and dessert for the kids which I think is a great price. My son ordered the cheese quesadillas and my daughter had the steak tacos. They had rice and beans and fruit as their sides and a drink of milk. Later they would get ice cream for their dessert. When we went, it was about 430 on a Friday and they have happy hour between three and six so we ordered mostly off of the happy hour menu. I ordered the watermelon agua Fresca and summer fajitas off of their seasonal menu while my husband ordered tortillas, tacos, and quesadillas off of the happy hour menu. I thought the happy our menu was amazing. For five dollars each plate you can get so much food. Altogether we were in and out and about an hour. The place itself was lively. Parking is plentiful outside in the lot. Prices are beyond reasonable. The music is fun and upbeat. You have to get the guacamole. They bring over the car and make it there right in front of you and it's delicious and healthy, too! Hanna told us the way to get such flavor and everything they make is just to roast everything. Good tip. We also had Joe, the manager come over to make sure we had everything we needed. Altogether, my family and I had the best time. My husband even said this is a five star experience and my son said this is the best place ever! My daughter loved the music and was dancing the whole time. If my family is happy, I am happy. Truly a great place to spend my birthday. Also, Hanna brought over a complementary birthday dessert. A lava, chocolate cake with ice cream and strawberries on the side. Doesn't get much better than that. We will be back, Barrio, Queen! Which I believe stands for neighborhood queen. She happens to be right in between where I live and where I work so I will see you later, queen.

I wanted to share feedback about our visit tonight during happy hour. We usually have great…read moreexperiences at Barrio Queen, which is why this stood out. Unfortunately, service was very inattentive. At the beginning, our server offered water and we requested four waters, but they were never brought until we asked again. Throughout the meal, we repeatedly had to request basic items such as utensils, salsa..etc. What was most disappointing was that our server never checked back on our table to see if we needed anything or how our meal was. The next interaction we had was being handed the check, which made us feel rushed and as though the goal was simply to get us out the door. We enjoy Barrio Queen and have had much better experiences in the past, so I wanted to bring this to your attention in hopes that it can be addressed.

The restaurant is quite spacious and offers plenty of seating. The staff greeted us as soon as we entered then we each took turns placing our orders. I was happy to see that they offer fish and shrimp options. I opted for the shrimp taco plate which comes with two decent sized shrimp tacos as well as a side of rice and beans. We all got our orders to go and I could hardly wait to eat them at home. The tacos, beans, and rice hit the spot! I appreciated the amount of shrimp. Glad to know of a good late night spot in Queen Creek!

Great find in Old Town Queen Creek!…read more True family-run restaurant, and it really stood out from the moment I walked in. Ordering at the counter was quick and easy, and the staff member helping me was friendly and gave an excellent recommendation. The food did not disappoint--everything was fresh, flavorful, and cooked just right. the meat was tender and seasoned perfectly, and the salsas had just the right amount of kick. The portions were generous without being over the top, and you can tell a lot of care goes into each plate. Clean and welcoming, the kind of place that makes you want to come back again and again. Honestly, there's nothing I would change about this spot. I'll definitely be back--it's a gem in Old Town Queen Creek!

First time trying this place. Ordering on the app was easy. Wait time was about 20 min after…read moreplacing the online order. We waited 10-15 min before entering the drive thru lane and when we pulled up to the window we were told to park out front and they would bring the food out to us. We waited about 10 minutes before it was brought out. We ordered 3 carne asada tacos, a crazy potato with carne asada, chips & salsa and a slice of flan as well as 2 medium fountain drinks and it was a little over $40. Carne asada tacos were very good. My daughter's crazy potato with carne asada was also very good. Chips and Salsa, the chips were good but the salsa was just ok. We also shared some flan, we both agreed it was just ok and not worth $5. Prices are a little high. I didn't see the option for cilantro or lime anywhere. Everything seemed like it needed a little salt. Plenty of parking, a drive thru, handicap parking, nice sized patio to eat outdoors if you prefer. Overall not bad just a little over priced. I'd go back for the tacos and the crazy potato

They were so small it was hard to be mad, my wife and I literally were laughing at the absurdly tiny serving. I will never go back. It was a literal joke.

Can you just say YUM?!!!!…read more I've visited twice now and both times were just YUMMY!!!! The service at order was great and efficient. The young lady who took orders was beyond polite and kind. She took the time to explain the offerings and the daily specials despite that crowd that was there. Quick and kind to explain yet gracious - that takes skill! The food, well, it was too yummy to even take a picture of - will definitely try and take photos of the food on our next visit. Just be aware that the Quesotaco tastes best with the birria meat option - at least it was for us. But that does not discount how GREAT the food tastes and that the pricing is a great value because they do NOT skimp on the meat selection (and they have plenty!). The drink options are great as well and the agua frescas are HUGE! Great value for both (non-alcoholic) beverages and very tasty food! Ambiance is great while waiting for food as there is music playing that is fun enough to dance to while waiting! Will definitely be coming back!

From the moment you walk in, you're welcomed by a beautiful, upscale atmosphere featuring an open kitchen, incredible artwork, warm lighting, and a vibe that's perfect for date night, celebrations, or dinner with friends. Now let's talk about the food... Beef Braised Short Rib: The star of the evening. Fall-apart tender, packed with rich flavor, and served over creamy mashed potatoes that soaked up every bit of that incredible sauce. Comfort food elevated to another level. Prime Ribeye: Perfectly cooked with a beautiful crust, topped with sautéed mushrooms, and every bite was juicy, flavorful, and exactly what you'd expect from a top-tier steakhouse. Crispy Lobster : Crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and tossed in a sweet-spicy sauce that kept us reaching for one more bite. Espresso Martini: Smooth, balanced, and the perfect cocktail to enjoy with dinner--or to finish the evening. Dessert: The perfect ending to an outstanding meal. Beautifully presented and every bite was worth saving room for. One of the things we really appreciated was how every dish arrived looking as good as it tasted. The presentation, quality of ingredients, and attention to detail were evident from start to finish. The service was attentive, the atmosphere was lively, and the open kitchen added to the overall experience.

We'll definitely be back to explore more of the menu.

Went here with a group on a Tuesday night. We had a reservation so that knew we were coming…read more Our waitress was nice but it was the slowest service ever! Seated at 6:45pm, we didn't get to order appetizers until nearly 7:30. The whole meal dragged on. Our table was never properly cleared of unused or dirty dishes and glasses. A male manager came by twice and grabbed a few things but otherwise our waitress was having to do it all herself. They also had the temperature incredibly warm there, so warm everyone was sweating and I almost put my hair up in a ponytail. Food was okay but not worth the price b Again, this was a Tuesday night, not a busy weekend. Won't be returning to this place.
