What Kate Martinez doesn't like about Barbosa's:
I am so heartbroken! This is my hometown and I grew up on barbosas. It was my favorite. I moved away haven’t been here in maybe 20 years. I was in town and I came back tonight and introduced my family to my once beloved favorite Mexican restaurant. It was awful. The food was not like I remember. I know times change, food changes but this is definitely for the worst. My daughter is a vegetarian and didn’t even have me... View all feedback. What Matt McDonald likes about Barbosa's:
This is decent Mexican food. Not a lot to brag about. Lots of people are fanatical about the chips, but I think that's just because they are actually cooked in lard. They are ok, but nothing is complimentary. Where every other Mexican restaurant serves chips complimentary, you have to order any chips here separately. The red pork chili is pretty good. Not one of my first choices of places to eat, but I might eat here... View all feedback.

One thing that i like about Barbosa's is there is no strangers. You feel welcome as soon as you walk in.
