Lovely as one would expect at 50th & France in Edina, though for suburban Latin food - it's all tacos, burritos and tequila, effectively - maybe a bit too much white-tablecloth ambiance for my taste. I did enjoy the hell out of the shishito peppers, crisp and hot. I would caution maybe 2 of 10 were truly spicy-hot, but my first mistake was in not ordering a cold Modelo, a perfect pairing with the peppers. My entree (see photo) was a chicken plate, good but I could do without chihuahua cheese melted on the chicken. Loved the black beans and rice. Our service was adequate, but he lost a star for not delivering a martini. My second mistake was ordering a Hendricks martini, up with a twist, and it never found me. The waiter clearly didn't know what that drink was. I mean, it's gin and vermouth, not some cutesy concoction with egg whites and dry ice. Eventually, the server apologized as it turned out they were out of that gin, or perhaps all gin, I don't know. Like a valet that can't drive a stick, servers of cocktails should know the standard drinks like martinis or why are you waiting tables? I declined a substitute for fear of what I'd receive. Otherwise, Barrio was just fine, and maybe a little better if one doesn't arrive thirsty.

The restaurant has a fun date night vibe with lower lighting in the evening. There are several nearby and free parking ramps. Much of the menu has single items allowing for the diner to try many items. The chips are fresh and delicious as well as the salsas and cheese dip. Service is friendly and fast. They have a few mocktails which I appreciate and many gluten free options

I had read mixed reviews of Barrio but had an awesome experience there! It was quiet when we went for lunch. Service was fantastic and the restaurant itself is beautiful. I thought the chips and salsa were delicious, and I also enjoyed the shrimp skewers, shishito peppers, and shrimp tacos. The portions are smaller and the flavors are more mild compared to a Mexican restaurant. Parking in the free ramps or on the street can get busy, but there's typically something available. I'd go back!

I didn't have diner so I don't think I can rate them five stars, but I will definitely come back!!!!! The orange blossom margarita, (by some other name) was amazing and the fundido was amazing. So five stars on what I had. Great bartenders great service! Awesome experience I look forward to diner soon and will add another review afterwards. Check it out great spot!!!!

We had put in our name at another spot near Barrio for dinner, but headed over to grab a drink at Barrio while we waited! We had a large group, around ten, so I feel like that is important context. 50th and France parking is always an adventure, but I'd recommend just committing to the nearby parking garage instead of circling and hoping for street parking. Barrio has a lot of space and is great for small and large groups! The space is minimalist but gives you the feeling of elevated Mexican to match the menu. Our group was sat at a large table in the back. Service was very overwhelmed during our stay, which created missed orders and slow arrival. At one point, we simply went to the bar to get drinks because it had been 20-30 minutes since we placed our order. The food and drinks themselves were great! They had my favorite Mexican beer, Victoria, and it was priced well! The queso comes with tortillas, which was an interesting choice, as you have to pay extra for chips. Overall, there are many better places in the neighborhood, but I wouldn't avoid this spot if you were in the mood for Mexican or if someone invited you there!

50th and France has a lot of construction going on so allow time to park. We came for happy hour we enjoyed the queso with chorizo. The guacamole was great so fresh with radishes and jalapeño. We enjoyed the margarita, rose and margarita with cherry lime and absinthe. Yum yum. Our server Tony was kind, funny and overall checked on us often but left us alone. We had a great time! Thank you!

We went to Barrio for a bday party so we had a bit of a larger group (8 ppl). They were able to accommodate all of us and got all of our orders in before happy hour ended! The server was also super friendly and recommended some drinks to us. The portion sizes were pretty small, but they were tasty! I would recommend any of the tacos, but probably multiple of them if you are hungry. It is a smaller restaurant and there were a lot of people eating at the same time we were so it was a bit chaotic at times to try to find our server. The walk to the bathroom was also confusing and had to squeeze around groups of ppl. Felt like a crowded bar at times! I still would go back, but probably during a less crowded time!

Live right up the road but hadn't been until stopping by for happy hour. The space itself is a classy, "business casual" vibe. Not that it stopped me from rolling in wearing jeans and a hoodie. It was pretty quiet and the staff was really friendly. Seems like it's much more of a late-night and lunch spot. The happy hour menu is pretty good with a huge serving of excellent guac and chips. It's the good, chunky kind of guac that lets you know you're eating avocado instead of some avocado-flavored mush. Well seasoned and comes with really good chips that hold up to the weight. They have a bunch of tacos as well and the vegetarian option was really good. Lots of filling, fresh tortilla, and I was stuffed afterwards. Didn't get a drink but they have some good specials on those as well. I'll definitely be back at some point!
