Great gluten free options and very family friendly— my niece and nephew each wolfed down an adult sized waffle while I enjoyed the Queen. Definitely recommend for family brunches, the boisterous atmosphere is warm and welcoming even while you’re waiting to be seated.

Had the pork souvlaki gyro and it was fantastic. The best Greek food I've had hands down. Great customer service too! The owner came outside, welcomed us in, and catered to our gluten free/food intolerances. 10/10 recommend

Very nice people, I ordered the nachos (gluten-free!) and since they were out of Jackfruit and I can’t eat gluten or soy. The options were Jackfruit, Seitan (which I didn’t know what it was but apparently it is vital wheat gluten. No thanks I have Celiac), so I got extra beans. The cheese and sour cream is made with cashews. The whole restaurant is Vegan, I am not but saw the menu and found gluten-free and soy free options and since it is vegan I don’t have to worry about dairy products. Oh my goodness the nachos were so good, it’s a good thing I got the mild because they were a little bit spicy so the spicy nachos would have been too much. I will definitely be back. The atmosphere is super cool too, the walls are painted by a local artist with flowers. My Mom ordered the BBQ Chic salad and she thought it contained chicken, she was confused when I told her there wasn’t because the restaurant was entirely vegan.

Thank you for the wonderful experience. We had Elliott as our waiter, and we have a lot to say about him. He was top tier. Professional through and through. He said that he wanted me to try the 6 hour roasted pork shank to impress me, but turned out you had just sold out. No worries, because you guys were impressive the moment we walked in the door. His attitude, social skills, hospitality, doing the unexpected, attention to detail, and work ethic is rare and it shined throughout the night. You can immediately tell that he cares and wants to elevate your experience. The food was great, but Elliott, made everything that much better. We will definitely be asking to be seated with him so long as he works there. Jasper, thank you for meeting with us and discussing the gluten-free, dairy free options, sharing conversation and being so kind and genuine. It’s pretty cool to see you going around checking in with the customers and striking conversations with everybody. Thank you for taking care of us. We will definitely be back. No doubt about it.

Always love Barrio! They've got some great gluten-free and vegetarian options, particularly the jack fruit enchiladas. It's also super cool to offer one of the daily specials with a veggie protein (jack fruit tacos for happy hour). Not many places have a vegetarian special every day! Add to it the amazing skinny margs (try coconut), you've got yourself an amazing after-work happy hour spot! Chips and cheese are spot on, too!

Pretty good, beat our expectations. Will have to visit a 2nd time. The Greek Nachos were quite a hit with me, and my wife was pleased to get a sandwich on a gluten-free bun that was not dry and crumbly.

Quick service, tasty burgers, as someone with Celiac, I appreciate that they offer protein style so that I can get a bunless burger.
