barrio<3

New to the Slope!

Barrio teased for weeks...doors open, consistently packed- Spanish Tapas that will make you mmm...

The servers push the guacamole on you, but the cocktails are excellent, the ingredients impossibly fresh, lightly (and strategically apparent) spices, beautiful portions. Their tortillas are homemade and taste much like the ones my mother makes (this is a good thing).

The plantain & black bean empanada could use a little punch, but the queso was well-crafted. The bartender instructed us to wrap tortillas around the dense chili-dusted cheese and eat it like a taco.

7th Ave & 3rd St.
