From its inception, Barrio Queen has strived to provide a unique dining experience based on offering authentic Mexican food, often created from the chefs’ own family recipes. Everything is handmade, using top-notch ingredients, from the salsa and guacamole to the chips. The dishes are then served to patrons in a way that is fun and engaging. Since opening its first location, Barrio Queen has garnered numerous awards, including “Top 10 Best Table Side Guacamole” from USA Today, “Best New Restaurants in America” from Esquire’s Restaurants, first place in the nation for best tabletop installations from Table Top Awards, “Best Guacamole” from Travel+Leisure, and featured on the Food Networks "Best Thing I've Ever Ate".
