Barrio Cafe

I got the taqitos and it was sooo good 😍🔥 I loved it it’s a must try . Also for the horchata coffee I wasn’t a fan of because it had a small few big chunks of cinnamon . Maybe horchata just isn’t my thing but if it’s your thing I’d say it’s worth a try this was my first time and I think I’m just not a cinnamon person . Other then that food good sauces good 🔥

We have been looking for good Mexican food since we got on island. This is the place! Its close to us, it tastes great and the price is right. We got the Carne and eggs and the chilequiles, both were great. We will be back!

The best Mexican food we have had on Oahu. We have spent over 5 years living in El Paso Texas and were pleasantly surprised when we found this place. We were so hooked that we have probably eaten at this place almost every other weekend for the past two months. Everything on the menu exploded with flavor and the portion sizes were perfect. The horchata and the coffee were perfect to our email. You have to try the Chorizo Rice and the Churro French Toast. Actually you have to try everything. We are slowly working on that. Definitely recommend. I can’t stop talking about this to everyone I know.

It is very hard to find good Mexican on the Island, this is now my #1 spot. Only slight complaint. I like their sauce but they use a little much on everything. Will definitely be coming back here as it is only about 10 minutes from the house.

Everything was delicious. We would definitely eat here again. My favorite that we had was the Barrio crazy fries. The horchata was very sweet 😋

Absolutely amazing! 🤤 If we could have went back multiple times, we would have. This is the real deal if you want Mexican food. From Southern California .. so we know good Mexican food. Lots of love goes into this food and you can tell it is home made. So yummy! And everyone was extremely nice. Thank you for the good food and service!!!!

I recently had the pleasure of having Barrio Cafe cater my wedding and bridal shower, and I cannot express how impressed I am with their service! From start to finish, Miriam and her team exceeded all expectations. At the bridal shower we enjoyed charcuterie style boxes and mini sandwiches and they were delicious and beautifully displayed! Pick up was easy and everything held up well on our trip to the other side of the island. I have included the photos I took of the food at the shower! For the wedding we opted for full service including hand-passed appetizers and wait staff, and the professionalism of the team was incredible. Each staff member was attentive, friendly, and went above and beyond to ensure our guests were well taken care of. The presentation of the food was perfect; it was clear that a lot of thought and care went into every detail. Even when the weather turned and it started to rain, Barrio Cafe delivered wonderful food without missing a beat. The quality and flavor of the dishes were exceptional, and our guests couldn't stop raving about them! I wholeheartedly recommend Barrio Cafe for any event. Their commitment to excellence and personal touches made our celebration even more memorable!

Barrio Café in Wahiawa was an excellent experience. I especially loved the vegan tofu tacos—they were fresh, flavorful, and thoughtfully prepared. The side of potatoes was also outstanding, perfectly crispy and seasoned just right, making them irresistibly tasty. My son thoroughly enjoyed the crazy fries, which disappeared quickly from his plate. The atmosphere at Barrio Café is relaxed, inviting, and genuinely comfortable. Miriam, the owner, is wonderful—warm, engaging, and passionate about her business. She spent time chatting with me about the café and introduced me to a delicious fermented beverage that's similar to kombucha but uniquely different, and incredibly good. I even took home a bottle because it was so impressive. She also generously gifted me a bottle of her homemade syrup, a sweet, smoky, and spicy creation that has become a standout ingredient at home—especially fantastic in margaritas and on waffles. Barrio Café truly delivers an exceptional mix of delicious food, friendly vibes, and genuine hospitality. I’ll definitely be telling all my friends about this place, and I'm looking forward to seeing Miriam’s amazing products on store shelves soon!

Nice little place, food was awesome but I should have said no cilantro 🙁. I know Mexican food has a lot but I like eating tacos 😂. Only thing I wouldn’t recommend would be the salsa, I thought it would be made to order but they just pulled it out of the fridge in front. The salsa wasn’t as fresh as I thought it would be. My birria tacos was definitely on point so I had to order an extra one on the side😋. Only thing is I wish they gave more napkins… one is definitely not enough.

Considering the recommendations I got to try this place out, I was extremely underwhelmed. The food was bland and dry. I had to dump so much salsa into it. The waitress was not attentive. There were 4 other tables that had customers, I don’t know if they consider that busy but it didn’t seem like she spent much time at any table. If you are lucky to snag one of the three available parking spots, getting into and out of it is difficult. Definitely don’t drive in the back for extra parking. There are none!! Maybe it was an off day but I’m scratching my head wondering why this place was recommended to me. Also, menu reflects CASH PRICES. Luckily I had cash on me.
