Best Quick Casual Mexican. Food is fresh, healthy and tastes great. Portions are large and you get what you want on your item. I really like the Barbacoa Pork. The employees are friendly. You can't get a better meal for $6.50. Food is better and lower priced than competitors. Only negative is it is often too busy for lunch.…
Big, Almost Too Big. The last time I went to Barbacoa it was awesome. I would definately have to say that the Honey Sweet Pork Burrito is the best Sweet Pork in all of Utah. There is nothing that compares to it. I read that some people are saying they don't give out too much food. That is true if you tell them not to put an item on, but if you tell them as follows: Rice, black beans, sweet pork, cheese, all three salsas, sour cream, lettuce, and cilantro, then you will see that the burritos become so big the workers can hardly fold them up. Get yourself a water (or 1.59 for a soda) and you have a complete filling meal for only $7.00! That's not too bad if you ask me.…
I suspect they use MSG. I have had a migraine for 2 days ever since I ate a chicken burrito at Barbacoa. I suspect they are using MSG in their cooking. It can also cause stomach and intestinal problems (which I read in another review) I will not be going back there.…
Best Burrito's in town. I love this place, I recently made friends with one of the staff and every time I come in he gives me a free soda :) Also, try this combination, it's the only one I get Burrito, no rice, Pinto Beans, Barbacoa Pork, Cheese, Hot Sauce, Sour Cream, Lettuce..... mm delicious, and there Salsa to go with the chips is incredible.…
Gone downhill. 5 years ago Barbacoa was by far the best burrito place in town. Then they started jacking up prices every 6 months. I still went there until one day I ordered a steak burrito -- the young woman could barely understand what I was ordering, but I digress -- she got me a nice big scoop of steak, and SHOOK THE SPOON so steak fell off because apparently she had given me too much. I then realized that it's turning into a Mexican Subway where workers are encouraged to screw customers. I only go there now when I have a gift card, and I would like to note that the steak is not nearly as good as it used to be. Go to Chipotle, Cafe Rio, or Molcasalsa instead.…
