“Barrio ATL is an entire VIBEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!! I ended up here on a Thursday. I was in the Cascade area and in the mood for tacos. After a search on Yelp Barrio ATL popped up and was where we headed for the night. As a heads up, Barrio ATL sits in the corner of the strip plaza. As such, the parking can be a bit tight so be sure to choose a space accordingly. Upon walking in, the ambiance puts you in the mindset of a trendy hookah lounge. Wall seating, chairs, and tables are to the left, and a VIP area style is to the right. The DJ is directly to the left of the VIP area and the bar area is to the left of the DJ. The building is medium-sized and build rectangular so there is ample length as compared to the width. There was no one at the Hostess booth when I walked in, however, the young lady got up from one of the tables in the back, greeted me, and quickly took us to our table. Once seated, the waitress assigned to our table came over and was super nice and welcoming. She introduced herself as Shay and went over the specials for the night. As the ambiance is more than just a casual bar, Shay’s service was superior. Her personality shined and she enhanced the overall experience of the night. Thank you, Shay! Based on the specials for the night I decided to go with the 3 Chicken Birriia Tacos for $9 (this was a great deal as they are usually $20) and a side of fries. As they didn’t have Sweet Tea on the menu I ordered a bottle of water. Shout out to Barrio ATL for serving Fiji. Ha. Babeeeeeeeeee… Here me when I tell you… I don’t know what kind of potatoes these fries were made with but they were the BOMBBBBBBBB. They were thick, perfectly fried, golden to perfection, and well seasoned. For the record, I would go back for the fries alone. LoL! The birria tacos were good as well. As this was my first time having them I don’t have anything to compare them to, however, I enjoyed the experience. The crunchiness of the taco shell with the well-seasoned chicken. The birria consomé was well seasoned and definitely enhanced the flavor of the taco, as such, for my first birria experience I enjoyed it. Furthermore, if the chicken was this good, I can’t wait to try the beef. Overall Barrio ATL is def one to add to the checklist when you are looking for a vibe. The DJ was on point, the ambiance was hittin like it needed to be, and the overall flow of the environment was ideal for a kick it/unwind/grab a drink type of vibe.“
“What a great spot. I came in for some drinks only so I didn’t order food. But the food that was brought out smelled and looked delicious. The drinks were spectacular! All three concoctions were on point. Simon is amazing at his craft. It was so nice to be able to chat with the the owners, they’re very hospitable. The staff was very nice ? The location is welcoming and friendly. Next time I’ll go hungry so I can indulge in traditional cuisine!!! ? recommend.“
“Delicious! I got the vegetarian noodles delivered and it came pipping hot and super fast. I can't wait to go there in person. The veggie brother is creamy despite being vegan. You can order additional protein like eggs or shrimp if you want to adjust your bowl. Overall a great ramen spot.“
“The food was amazing, but didn't really fit the atmosphere. The restaurant was a bit small on the inside and seating was close to other customers. I thought the atmosphere didn't match the price of the food, that was on the more expensive side from other sushi restaurants that I've been to with similar atmosphere. However, THE FOOD WAS WORTH EVERY PENNY. The portions of sushi was thickly cut and melted in my mouth. We ordered fatty tuna, yellowtail, tamago and salmon, and everything was delicious. We also ordered the miso ramen and soy sauce based one, and they were both really good. Absolutely would go again, but just giving a heads up that the food is worth the price, the atmosphere is not.Parking: There is street parking, but I'm not sure if it's free or not. We parked at the parking garage attached to The Pencil Factory and it was paid parking. The first 20 minutes were free I believe.“
“If you are looking for a nice and not too fancy place, this is the place for you. Waitress are super kind and friendly and food is good! Me and my wife we always enjoy our time here, the service is fast and also the pick up food is punctual and clean.“
“I had my first bao buns here and they did not disappoint. The Lobster Bao Buns were tender and flavorful. The Pork Belly Boa Bun was a great combination of sweet and fatty. I want to try the Fried Oyster Bao but they were out. Will definitely try it next. Overall a great food experience. Highly recommend.“
“Wow! Really enjoyed this place for lunch. Delicious food. Kind person taking our orders. Clean restaurant! Will be back again!. Had the blac garlic oil tonkotsu, my friend had the red chili oil and enjoyed it. Skip the pork and go for the chicken, nice and crispy outside, soft and Delicious inside.“
