Just received a phone call---four hours before our Saturday night reservation. Returned the voice message, and the person stated that they were calling to inform me that "chef is not accepting credit cards tonight. Cash Only." WOW! Saturday night/busiest night out. Reservation made days ago through YELP, and confirmed by me via YELP this morning. I questioned the last minute nature of this "announcement." She said that they had tried to reach me via e-mail, but it had been returned as undeliverable by YELP....weird, since I had no problems communicating with YELP. In any case, WHY would you do this on such late notice, when people who have made plans (mine involves a friend driving in 45 minutes from the suburbs)?? Even if you have an objection to credit cards for whatever reason (did you just get your fee raised?), you don't take it out on your customers. You change your website to indicate that you are a cash-only establishment. The caller offered to cancel my reservation. REALLY? Where else are we going to go on such short notice??!! Really, really poor form. I had highly recommended this restaurant to my friend, based on a number of outstanding dining experiences in the past. Will probably not return after tonight.

Five of us ate there and all had a great meal at a great price. I haven't tasted better Mexican food outside of Mexico. Staff is friendly and eager to please. Two of us shared a meal...extra plate brought out without being asked or charging extra. Best lime margaritas ever...not too sweet or too weak!. Ordered 1/2 liter for the 3 adults to share...what a deal at $13! Left a Yeti cup on the table... manager raced a block to catch up with us and return it. Thank you all!

This is our second visit to El Barzon. The first time was very good - typical speed for a busy restaurant and good food. This time the restaurant wasn't full. Our waiter, Pablo, was great...right there whenever we needed him. My Caesar salad and lasagna were very good. My husband said the veal dish and the seafood appetizer were excellent. I'm sure we will return again more than once.

Excellent, authentic Spanish tapas. We had an excellent business lunch with a group of 5 (reservations accepted), and ordered a cornucopia of deliciousness. Among the plates: the sardines, the calamari, the mushrooms, the spicy potatoes, the croqueta, the ham.....each one was outstanding and we all shared. Spanish coffee afterwards--wow! Our server was attentive and professional. A charming space. Also they host soccer viewing events during the World Cup and that is always a lot of fun! Great for lunch or dinner. Highly recommend.

Mix of Cuban and Spanish tapas offerings. The gratinado del chef (shrimp/scallop/mushroom in pastry shell) was very nice. Empanadas were bland, even with the sauces. The menu claims to have mojitos with "Havana Club," which is a Cuban rum that can't be imported to the U.S. due to the embargo, and upon questioning they admitted that it was an imitation, which seems quite deceptive. They are understaffed, so service is slow. It's also very noisy.

Like others, I was looking forward to our dinner at Taqueria Mi Pueblo. It was recommended by a coworker and received such great acclaim. Our experience is summed up as disappointing. The food (tostadas and quesadillas) came out fast. Maybe too fast? There was no flavor in anything. Nothing. The tostadas looked good but were described as bland. My quesadillas were totally void of flavor and spice. Rice and beans were just as boring. As we labored through this meal, we realized we had been here years before and had a similar, unimpressive experience. We won't be coming back. There are many worthy places to get your Mexican food fix. This is not one of them.
