What Sandy S likes about Barra Barra Saloon:
Rating: 3.5/5 stars. We ordered the Paella, which I would rate 4/5. It was tasty, but a bit too oily and watery for my liking. The Enchilada and Taco, however, were disappointing at 2.5/5. The quesadilla was quite bland, as were the bean and cheese dishes. View all feedback. What Alberto Gomez doesn't like about Barra Barra Saloon:
I've never had worse service. The waitress didn't introduce herself and ask us if we wanted drinks for around 10min. I had to flag her down for a water refill. She never showed up of her own accord. We had to ask for straws twice. She only showed interest in our experience when she brought the check and waited for the tip to be written on the machine.The food was also very greasy and mediocre. I'm never coming back. View all feedback.

I liked it but my partner didn't care for his tamale. Margarita and sangria were OK. I would go back to try happy hour.

Always a pleasure to visit when in Old Town My son loves their bean dip and the bean/rice plate. Treated the hubby to their famous Seafood Paella

Do not skip Barra Barra when visiting San Diego. Best Mexican food San Diego County offers. Kids eat free with every paying adult.

We always go for Cinco de Mee-o, but they have gotten nightly expensive. Even with a free bday meal, it was $50 for two.

Service was slow, and the food was decent. Nothing out of the ordinary, but, as expected for the area, overpriced. Dried out flour tortillas (even though they a...

Unfortunately, Barra Barra Saloon did not live up to our expectations. The food was overcooked, particularly the salmon, and the tables were not clean.
