I’ve been coming here for the past 5-6 years since I moved to Houston. A buddy recommended it to me, and it instantly became my favorite taco spot to go to.
But I don’t come here that often. Why is it that you ask… it’s my favorite spot …

This is the second time in the row that I've gone to order food from this place. Which I always enjoyed, but waited almost 15 minutes for somebody to come back to the bar and take my order. There seems to be no urgency for customer service. When I left tonight there were 8 people in line waiting. Sometimes success breeds arrogance.

Great, cozy mezcal bar which also serves outstanding tacos, quesadillas and burgers. Food and drinks are ordered at the bar and are then promptly prepared and delivered to your table. Indoor seating is limited but there is a nice outside …

The burritos are really good (I sub the fries for rice) and service is great. It's convenient that they are opened late. I usually pick up after I put our baby to sleep for a late dinner.

I stopped in for some takeout. The service was good. The food was ready quick. The roast pork burrito was delicious. I really loved the red hot sauce they gave me as well.

Victor, he did an excellent jon taking care of me and my boyfriend (also named victor) the food is delicious. As a Vietnamese, i recommend this place to my fellow asians. The tacos al pastor are bomb. The pineapple is a nice touch to their authenticity.

This place is fun for an after work drink, happy hour is $6 margs. The tacos are good but a bit dry. The 2 cheese burger and fry meal is a good deal. Fun atmosphere

Its a small place, the food is good but prices kinda high. the drinks are on point tho. I got a watermelon margarita.. well a couple of them and some tacos sat on the patio. Wasn't loud and was able to sit with friend and just chat and enjoy the breeze. Only one restroom was a big issue the line was long but staff was nice and fast

Came here with my brother and two friends; great food and chill vibes! Perfect spot to grab some tacos after a night out or hitting the club. The salsas were amazing, full of flavor and heat. Definitely coming back to Cantina Barba! …

The food, atmosphere, and staff were all awesome. Visited for the first time with a few friends on a late Friday night, and we had no issues finding a place to sit. Friends told me to try a margarita and glad I did because it didn't …

Got the pastor and barbacoa tacos. Both were good, but the barbacoa was especially delicious. They also had a good selection of tequila, I forgot what tequila I got but it was really smooth. I'm not really a tequila guy but maybe I'll become one now!

Cantina Barba Is a classic mezcal bar, I visited the bar at night after winding down from a fun night in the city. The food here is reasonably priced, and the ambience is pretty cozy, I personally haven’t had a chance to visit the bar in …

Enjoyed an amazing lunch on the outdoor patio at Cantina Barba on a weekday and had an amazing experience. You get the authenticity of authentic Mexican food truck dishes with the refined atmosphere of a great cocktail bar/restaurant. …
