Editorial Review for Los Barrios Mexican Restaurant – by Noah Sternthal

In Short
Upon being seated in the bright, airy building, diners are quickly furnished with warm chips, fresh salsa and Argentinean chimy-churri (a sauce made from parsley, garlic and oil). The nachos and the classic enchilada assortment is a good start. The best enchiladas are the poblanas and the Mexicana, with sauces that are rich and savory. Enjoy live music while you eat on Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights.

Los Barrios has been a staple fine mexican food for years. It is demonstrated by the multiple plaques and awards on display near the hostess stand. i have gone many times lately and the only thing lacking in this San Antonio Mexican food embassy is the service. It is suspect at best. I have spent stints of up to 30 min. without even seeing our server. On one occaision, upon asking how to receive our check or some of the outstanding sopapillas, we were told our waitress had left?!?! I will continue to go back despite the poor service due to the quality of the food. I have had many things on the menu including the diverse "Snacking Platters" and incredible "Enchilada Assortment" coming with one of each of the five house enchiladas. Of the other dishes I have tried, I would have to say the fish tacos are some of the best I have tasted, as well as what looked like traditional Tacos Al Carbon served with avocado. Make sure to make it into the restaurant on a Tuesday or Wednesday for Fajita night and Margarita night, respectively. The Margaritias are outstanding, and strong, but be sure to order them on special, they are quite expensive at regular price.

Pros: Great Food, Fun Atmosphere

Cons: Poor Service, Expensive Margaritas

I love this place. I used to live in San Antonio and since I moved away everytime I visit I make sure to come to Los Barrios. I brought my family while we were on vacation and even the "picky" eaters enjoyed the yummy food! I will definately be coming back soon!

Cons: parking
