Our first time visiting Barrio Bx. We had a phenomenal time! We were encompassed with culture, welcoming atmosphere, excellent authentic Puertorican food, and great music with a live Dj. My best friend & I came to support Instagram influencer @Beatrizcookinnvibez on her birthday bash. I first learned of this wonderful establishment from Sunny Hostin of The View. She highly recommended it after celebrating her birthday here AND Barrio Bx catered for The View! WEPAAAA! Let's get to the food. The alcapurias were scrumptious! Crispy on the outside & juicy on the inside. The accompanying dip very tasty too. I had the Vegan Jibarito the eggplant was crispy & well seasoned Mmmmm!!! topped w/muxed greens aguacate, vegan cheese topping & thin sliced tostones. The rum punch woo! Soo good! Packs a punch! I enjoyed it very much! The owner Tony Martinez was very hospitable and down to Earth. Staff very attentive and friendly. Dj Vice verse kept the atmosphere jumping. I can't wait to tell my friends & family all about it. Looking forward to poetry open Mic with Nuyorican Poets Cafe & Bomba on Wednesdays & Thursdays. We will DEFINITELY be returning. I'm looking forward to trying the desserts. Well done Barrio Bx! I'm not surprised. Puerto ricans Rock! Pa' que sepa!!!🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🇵🇷

Really nice spot. Only thing TURN THE DAMN MUSIC DOWN!!!!!!!! That's too small of a place to have the music that loud. Like my goodness it was ridiculous. You can't hear anything. That's why our order kept being messed up. Other than that it was a vibe. Food was really good and the drinks were on point. I would definitely go back. But if that music is like that, I wouldn't dare

Sooo muchhhhh fun !! The DJ plays amazing music all night definitely high energy and fun vibes that gets you dancing and there’s a lot of people so it gives lounge vibes. They also have hookah that was really good and the food was good Puerto Rican food which I’ve been having a hard time finding lately 🙌🏻 The waitress was super nice and even helped getting me dancing 💃

I had a great time with my colleagues at Barrio Bronx. It was our first time eating there because of the great food & atmosphere shared with us by friends & colleagues. The staff were great & so was the food, with the exception of the chicken & beef alcapurrias, they were overcooked. Alcapurrias should be crispy and chewy not toasted and hard, everybody knows that who has grown-up eating alcapurrias & making them themselves. I’m not sure if this is BarrioBronxs’ reinterpretation of it, but we need to stop re-interpreting certain dishes and how they’re cooked & seasoned, it has to stop, unless the reinterpretation is exceptional. Cooking it to the point of being hard and under salted & bland is not cool, I was really hoping they were going to be great, I was greatly disappointed and so was my colleague. My colleague sent hers back hoping that after explaining to the waiter that they were overcooked, that this time around, they would be better. However, they were exactly like the first ones. At this point, I suspected that this is how they serve alcapurrias, overcooked to achieve an ultra-toasted-crispiness, which unfortunately for my taste buds and my colleagues, was no bueno! However, to the credit of the restaurant we were not charged for our order & our waiter was pleasant regarding our disappointment, and we shared with him that it is not our intention to make the chef feel bad in anyway. Nevertheless, everything else we ordered was amazing. I had the trigongo & it was beyond delicious 🤤 and don’t get it twisted, despite that hiccup with the alcapurrias we will be coming back ASAP! Because we loved everything else that we ordered. 👏👏👏
