    Mojitos! Mojito clásico de limón (izquierda), mojito de tamarindo (derecha). Deliciosos los dos!
    Dulce R.

    When I found out there was a bar with rock en español, specifically live band, I knew I had to check it out. Mi Barra is a small pretty hidden place across the street from Northgate. This place is a lot smaller than other places with live bands, or other bars in general. If you are planning on going with a big party; anything more than 4 people just know you might have to split up or push some tables together if possible. Nonetheless, the band was awesome! They played many great rock en español hits, and added their own twist to other songs to make them rock, ska, reggae. They interacted with the crowd and pumped everyone up, at one point there were people dancing (although there is no actual dance floor), people hugging and singing together, it was a good time. When looking over their menu, I noticed they have an assortment of mojitos; specifically tamarind mojitos which isn't commonly seen. It. Was. Delicious. Possibly one of the best tamarind drinks I've had, for some reason, many places don't know how to make an alcoholic beverage with this ingredient but Mi Barra definitely got it right. They also have other flavors and other drinks.. Oh.. And beer, if you're into that. Meh. Parking can be grim. There is a small lot assigned to the bar. Security said parking in Northgate across the street was no problem but there is a tow sign saying customers only... Sooooo.. Proceed at your own risk. I will definitely be returning for more tamarind mojitos and a good rock en español live band.

    The owner will have drinks with you Anne an absolute blast!

    Most important detail: THE TEQUILA DOESN'T BURN HERE Forreal. The owner is a super cool dude, his staff welcome everyone personally and attend to you the entire time. I'm talking like come and check in for conversation not just to make money off of you. It is a hole in the wall on the outside and it is low key fancy inside. Everyone is sweet, the music is versatile, the decor is comfortable and reasonable- no need to feel like you are gonna break something important like in the gas lamp and no lingering smell of vomit and mold like in hillcrest. Stop in, you won't be disappointed

    Waiting for our beers so thirsty lol

    0" is a breath of fresh air for someone that's tired of the same old-same same-old and just wants to listen to good Spanish Rock.

    Beautiful bar, friendly service, knowledgeable bartender and easy access. That's how I would…read moredescribe this establishment in one sentence. It is located inside the Growler Sports Bar, close to the lobby. The host at Growler showed us the entrance, and since we arrived right at opening time, we were able to choose any seating we liked. They have a great cocktail menu. I tried the Brunch Bootleg and the Pink Lady, and both were delicious. What I also loved is that they can create off menu cocktails based on your preferred flavor profile, making the experience feel even more personalized. They also have a few off list draft beer options for only $10. There are three parking options available: valet for $30, self parking at the hotel for $20, or free 3 hour self parking across the street.

    If I could give this place 0 stars I would. Walked inside and we were SUPER stoked to try it. Place…read morewasn't busy, plenty of seating so we sat in the middle at the comfy couches. There were 6 of us. The gal who was doing security gave us menus and said the bartender would be by and they do table service. She gave us menus but no water. We waited for more than 10 minutes and watched two bartenders behind the bar never come over, not even greet us, bring us water, say "hey I will be with you" ... nothing. And they weren't rushed or slammed, nobody was ordering, they just didn't come out to us or even look at us, bring us waters, nothing. And by the way, their menu is disgustingly overpriced. $25 cocktails (very basic) Average cost for a GLASS OF WINE.. $30-$55 per POUR. for a mid af $100 bottle of wine lol. 55 dollars per glass of wine and we could not get an acknowledgment whatsoever. We ended up getting up and leaving and as we were walking out the bartender ran over (super quick btw, so he does have legs) and said hey where are you guys going, and we said we're leaving and he said "I was gonna come over right now" It was so cringe like he was chasing a tip from us since we had a medium size party. Not worth the hype, not worth the reviews, the influencers who post about this place probably worked something out with the management or hotel because this place is a total miss. Not even a swing and a miss. I can't say enough bad things about it.

And, only then will I entertain a night out unless I'm with the right group of people. I've been to this bar several times now and it's been nothing but good old fashion fun. You can be yourself and no one bothers you. It's not crazy crowded, at least when I've been there during the weekdays. I can actually find a seat at the bar or just lounge in the back area on a couch. There are also tables and chairs to choose from. There has been a DJ, live band, karaoke or just plain music jammin. The highlight for me: the bar tenders ! They were attentive and friendly. Shout out to Justin and I forgot young looking female bartender's name. Shout out to her too This bar may not be as lit and inviting looking from the outside, don't judge. Step inside, give it a try Oh and see how many frogs you can find around the bar ...I counted about 15 plus.

There's cool Mexican art on the wall and table was clean and wiped down. There's not too big of a menu and what they have is made really well. The chips and salsa were good. I like how light the chips are. The free salsa had more and better flavor than the red, but both are good. I got El Bàsico burrito and it was like how I used to eat it growing up when my parents would make it for me. I asked for a side of the poblano salsa they use for the chilaquiles and it was so good! It became with a side of plain crema. I left full and happy! My wife got a Quesataco with a side of frijoles and papas. The taco had a lot of meat and was super tasty. They gave you a small side of consume and that didn't disappoint either. The papas didn't have too much flavor but were nice and crispy. The beans were my wife's favorite. They have a slight kick and bomb flavor. I'm glad to have this place in our neighborhood and I look forward to coming back again!
