   On Wednesday, March 12th, my party of 3 participated in the Mezcal & Mole’ class at Barrio Costero. WE HAD A BLAST! There were only 7 attendees in total, making it possible to really engage with the chef and bartender as we learned how to make mole’ and different cocktails! Chef Izzy is an amazing chef with a unique culinary point of view! I had heard so often that mole’ is extremely difficult to make, but Chef Izzy really broke it down into simple, easy to understand steps! Then it was cocktail time! Bar manager Jamie showed us how to make a few different cocktails and educated us about mezcals and tequilas! The evening ended with everyone enjoying a family style dinner and enjoying the fruits of our labor! If you get the opportunity to attend a future event, I highly recommend you do! And you can always stop by for Happy Hour on Friday! Thanks Chef Izzy and Jamie!

   Ann, thank you so much for your incredible review! Glad you had such a blast at our Mezcal & Molé class! 🎉 Chef Izzy and Jamie definitely know how to make learning (and sipping) a good time. Molé might have a reputation for being tricky, but we love breaking it down—and of course, pairing it with the perfect cocktail. Thanks for spending the evening with us, and for the awesome recommendation! Hope to see you at the next event—or at Happy Hour on Friday for another round. 🍹🌮 Cheers!

   My server Mel was great. Very friendly and attentive. The restaurant was loud so I had to shout across my four top but I did like the atmosphere and decor. Although, we did have to do a lot of shuffling around to fit the shared plates on the table for a place whose aim is all shared plates. It’s a fun place to go for a night with friends. The food was not incredible for the portion/price point. It was a little bland honestly, like it was lacking salt. I’ve had much better Mexican food in the “elevated/authentic” category. Drinks were very good. I would go again but I wouldn’t run back.

   Absolutely delicious. In fact the food was very special. This is not your typical Mex restaurant. Also, they have extra special surprises for celebrating a birthday, which surprised and delighted us. Finally, I would recommend sitting at the chef counter. It is a unique experience and worth it. Also Learned about their happy hour specials, which are delicious and with the trip.

   We love Barrio, food, service & drinks are phenomenal. BUT they really need to get their payment terminals figured out. This is the second time we’ve dined and had issues. This time, the people sitting next to us check was added to our bill. Thankfully I noticed, but not something you should have to deal with when you’re spending $200+

   Thank you so much for your kind words about our food, drinks, and service—we truly appreciate your support! We’re really sorry about the payment issue, and we completely understand how frustrating that must have been. That’s definitely not the experience we want for our guests, and we’re looking into it to make sure it doesn’t happen again. We appreciate you bringing this to our attention and hope to welcome you back for a smoother experience next time!
