    While the food was good, it was rather bland. Both my husband and I had the Chile Relleno dinner and we both agreed it was rather underwhelming as far as taste. It was loaded with vegetables and not too much cheese (which was a plus). We’ve had better though. As far as the salsa was concerned, it tasted like watered down tomato juice. Not impressed at all. Chips were good though.

    Our group of six dined at Barrio Queen in Surprise, and we had a fantastic experience overall. We were seated in a spacious booth that allowed everyone to spread out comfortably while still being able to converse easily. The atmosphere was lively, with great music adding to the vibrant ambiance. Our server was attentive, and the food and drinks arrived promptly. However, despite being there for two hours, our water glasses were never refilled, which would have been appreciated by those who needed it. On the other hand, the margaritas were enjoyed by others in our group. The chips and salsa were delicious, but our empty basket was never refilled or offered to be replenished. We had made reservations, which turned out to be a smart choice, as the restaurant was quite busy. Thankfully, we were seated immediately. The evening was even more special because we had the chance to reconnect with family we hadn’t seen in a while, and for some of our guests, this was their first visit to Barrio Queen—they were thrilled to try something new. Overall, we were very pleased with our visit. A few small improvements in service would have made the experience even better, but the excellent food, energetic atmosphere, and good company made for a wonderful evening.

    No very busy on Sunday night but the noise level was a little high. Our server was great and very attentive. We have eaten here many times and the food is always good, however, this time it was not served hot. Happens!

    The food was very good. No complaints just complements from our party. The staff meeting at 4 left our group without water for a long time. Several of us were quite thirsty. The music was crazy loud. We couldn’t talk to the people across the table without adding to the cacophony. The waitress said the manager agreed to turn it down, but, of course, that didn’t happen. All in all, the quality of the service and food will bring us back but probably not with a large group. Too noisy to communicate.
