El Barrio has been lauded for its take on Mexican cuisine on MLive.com. Three Yelpers give it an average of three stars, and 84% of Urbanspooners like it.
- We could almost taste the enthusiasm in our appetizers, entrees and dessert, all of which boasted a tantalizing twist on traditional Mexican food. – John Serba, MLive.com
- Great new restaurant on the Medical Mile. Three kinds of salsa are served with fresh, crispy chips. Good quality food and drinks. They need to advertise this place as the signage outside is easy to miss. Helpful and informative wait staff. 19 draft beers... Give it a try. – Lori Grinwis, Urbanspoon

Need To Know Info
About El Barrio Mexican Grill OOB
Warm, red and white tortilla chips spill forth from a basket. Slow-cooked black beans are simmered with poblano peppers and blended with spice. Aged colby cheese melts together with tender shredded pork inside a hand-rolled enchilada. Traditional ingredients, house-made with care, fill the inventive dishes at El Barrio Mexican Grill. House-made salsas, sauces, and cheese blends accompany most of the grill’s hearty fare, with deep-fried Tijuana corn dogs diving into dishes of creamy melted queso blanco and avocado-ranch dressing winding around wedges of grilled avocado inside soft flour tortillas. The specialty shredded-pork carnitas fly to tables in salt-rimmed skillets that hearken back to the full bar’s margaritas, adding to the festive, cantina-like atmosphere and spurring discussions about which ocean tastes the saltiest.
