This is what artisan tacos should be! Truly artistic, gourmet concoctions. These are non-traditional in the very best way. They deftly combine surprising flavors and textures that create, not just unique flavors, but an inspiring culinary experience.
I just hope they come to Euphoria Greenville in SC this year!

My shrimp taco was excellent!! We didn’t know it but tonight was Taco Tuesday and 3 tacos was $14! My husband had 3 steak tacos plus beans and rice which was delicious! And $18.
And our waitress Jordan was great! She said she’s just started but she really did a good job describing the items in the menu. Good job, Jordan!!

Started our lunch with a delicious signature margarita. We both had the tacos. The authentic corn tortilla was excellent and made the tacos very filling. There are several protein options to select from. The flan was a great way to end the meal.

Barrio is easily the best restaurant in the area. We started with the calamari and queso fundido and both were absolutely incredible. The cocktails were amazing too. I had the mango habanero margarita and it was so delicious with just the right amount of heat.
For the main course we had the tacos and enchiladas and I already want to go back to try more. They also serve complimentary chips and salsa which were fresh and full of flavor.
Our waiter Eldwin was super friendly and attentive and the executive chef was just as welcoming.
Everything about the experience was outstanding. Highly recommended.

Quiet location for modern Mexican. Limited but creative menu selection with fun decor. They had saucier but flavorful salsas, ingredients were fresh, and flavors were good. No options for more traditional fare, which means some of our party that have regular favorites had to go off script, but everything was good. Could be a good place for a nicer office party. Service was fantastic and food was quick.

Went on Sunday. They were not busy (not sure why, because the food was amazing). Erica was our waitress. She was very knowledgeable about menu. The owner came out and let us try all the different sauces and explained them to us. We will definitely be going back!

Definitely a hidden gem!
My husband was out of town a few weeks ago and so I decided I’d go somewhere I’d wanted to try that was out of the way to treat myself and help pass the time without him. I reviewed my bookmarks and settled on Barrio!
This restaurant is located near the ever-popular Valentina’s pizza — I believe it shares a building with the first location of the pizza place before they moved a little up the road. Otherwise, it’s sort of “out there” — though I’d argue it’s very much worth a special trip. The parking lot is a little small but it’s also a fairly intimate restaurant so you won’t be fighting insane crowds anyway.
It felt clean and modern inside and the restaurant boasts a nice long bar. I was offered my choice of seat; I took a booth since they weren’t super busy (it was a Tuesday evening).
My server was Cameron. He was very sweet and worked hard at being attentive and helpful. My food came out promptly with each order and was prepared as I’d requested. No complaints there!
The menu here is more authentic and more upscale than many Tex-Mex options in the area. This makes me happy because I prefer Mexican cuisine served this way. I felt a little bad for the servers, though, as they had to field several questions from parties about matters of cheese dip, what mole is, etc. They cheerfully and patiently provided great education, but I hope in writing this I can save them some trouble in the future, lol. You should absolutely give Barrio a try, but Little Rosie’s it is not (nor should it be)!
Anyway, rant over…Cameron brought out some chips and both salsa rojo and verde. This was maybe the only thing I didn’t particularly care for all night. Neither salsa had a ton of flavor or heat to my palate, and the chips were fried a little heavily/dark for me. I was concerned after this but I shouldn’t have been because my entree and dessert were both delightful.
I ordered the enchiladas suizas, which comes with rice and beans. The rice was fluffy and light. The beans were a beautiful dark black color and subtly smoky, nice and smooth but not too much so. And my enchiladas…
Okay, a thing about me is that I always think I’ll love enchiladas (who doesn’t love a soft and creamy, cheesy, warm meal?) but EVERY TIME I order them they disappoint me. I’ve FINALLY found a place where they were all I’d hoped they’d be. The chicken inside was tender and succulent but not mushy; the tomatillo sauce was bright and flavorful; the cheese added the perfect amount of gooeyness…really, really good.
Thoroughly redeemed, I also placed an order for churros. I requested they be packaged to go as I was sure I wouldn’t eat them all in one sitting. Cameron obliged and brought out the dessert in two separate containers (one for churros, one for ice cream). I appreciated his thoughtfulness, though I wound up eating the ice cream and some churros there because I didn’t want it to melt. The ice cream was delectable — honestly, it tasted like homemade vanilla to me but whatever they use, it’s awesome — and the warm, cinnamon-covered and caramelly churros were the perfect companion. I ate three there and took three home for later. So good!
This restaurant has many offerings I’ve rarely seen throughout Huntsville (read: especially chicken mole — hard to find!). They seem to really care about the food and execute it on a high level. Please give them a try when you get a chance. I’ll definitely return in the future.

Everything was fantastic! When we asked about the sauce choices for enchiladas, the chef brought out a sauce sampler and detailed each option for us and what they all pair best with. I had the Pollo Mole, it may have been the best Mole I’ve had. Everyone in our party enjoyed their dish. The margaritas are made to order and super tasty as well! One member of our party ordered the Flan and she claims it was the best flan she has had in a very long time.

Went for brunch. This is not the place, if you want the typical cookie-cutter Mexican food that is available in the area. This is a place you should go if you want high quality ingredients, flavour, and a care about what is being served. While it is pricer than what you would expect from the typical price range for Mexican, it is well worth it. My only very minor gripe is the salsa that is served before the meal. I personally would have liked the salsa a little thicker. However, it is a very superficial gripe as the flavour more than makes up for my personal preference. We got the 3 taco dish and got the rocket city, gone fishing, grilled steak, and chicken between us. It was amazing all around and the beans were so flavourful…. As you can tell we were extremely happy and can’t wait to try dinner in the future.
Update: Went for dinner and tried some other dishes. Everything was still amazing. I wish this place much success and that the out- of-the-way location doesn’t become detrimental to that goal.

I decided to try Barrio’s for a girls night out. The chef/owner came out and was amazing. He gave us a plate of the different sauces to try, explained the dishes. The food was amazing. This is not your run of the mill Mexican. The flavors and care put into each dish are amazing. The cocktails weren’t bad either. I would highly recommend you go check it out. I am pretty sure any dish you order will be amazing!!!
