We stopped here since the other restaurant nearby was packed but so glad we did!! The atmosphere is as nice, under greenery and flowers looking out to Old Town San Diego and they have indoor seating options which is a plus over the other one. Chips and guac were awesome and obviously home-made and we shared the steak fajitas and it was packed with flavor!!! Our waitress was friendly and attentive and their outfits for their staff and just so cute!
Would 100% recommend this place!

Really excellent service. Food is mediocre to be honest.
Cool that kids eat free under 10 years of age. Drinks were sugary.
Stay away from the Carne Asada tacos. Over cooked and very bland. Also, they put cheese on top, which was odd.

Absolutely delicious and the margaritas were fantastic. The black bean dip and salsa are great! Also very good service!

I’ll confess, we put our names on waitlists of several restaurants in this darling area of Old Town, and Barra Barra answered the call. Literally. Tasty food. Generous portions. Good prices. Plus our DELIGHTFUL & hard-working server Sarah!!

Best Mexican Food EVER. We come here every time we’re in San Diego. We make it a point to stop here to eat. It’s so good and when we have guest we bring them here to. Our kids even love it. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS PLACE.

I ate there today and it was a good experience. Service was excellent and so was the food. I would go back. Pro tip: If there a lot of people waiting to be seated, you can skip the line and go straight to the bar. You can order food at the bar and eat there.

For my first time in Old Town
Barra Barra was the prefect lunch spot. They had the best everything mainly customer service. Gabriella was our waitress and her warm welcome made the experience all the better.

Really good Mexican food, if you are looking for an authentic experience, this is your place. I ordered the carna asada burrito, chimichanga style. Probably the best burrito I have ever had.

The service was wonderful. I ???? black beans. This is the first place where that came out as a dip. Neither the salsa or black beans were spicy.
So, don't expect the heat.
Our food arrived hot with no issues. It was absolutely delicious ????. I would recommend this place.
By the way, the frozen margaritas ???? is must.

Originally was planning on another restaurant next door but the wait was too long so we picked Barra Barra. We did not regret the choice even for a minute. Kids absolutely loved the quesodilla and I rarely hear anything positive from my teenagers so this is definitely a big win. I had Indian bread tacos with fish and chicken - that was a really awesome meal. Sangria was good too.
Thumbs up to Barra Barra.
