" I can't express how happy I was to find El Barril Mexican Restaurant! The flavors are so authentic, and the enchiladas were just like my grandma used to make in Arizona. Every dish was loaded with fresh ingredients and vibrant tastes. The service was fast, and the staff is super friendly. If you're ever in Edgington, you absolutely have to check this place out. The prices are also reasonable for the quality you receive. I'll definitely be returning soon with friends to share more of these delicious meals! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had dinner with my family last Saturday at El Barril, and what a delightful evening it was! We ordered a variety of items, from the tacos to the burritos and fajitas. Everything tasted incredibly fresh, and it was clear that they use high-quality ingredients. My husband loved the carne asada; it had just the right amount of seasoning. Our server was attentive without being intrusive, a fine balance that made our experience enjoyable. We also can't wait to try their churros for dessert next time! I highly recommend this gem to anyone who loves authentic Mexican cuisine! " (*Curated Review*)

The salsa was fresh, and the guacamole was the best I've ever had! I highly recommend the chicken enchiladas as well. I left feeling satisfied with my meal at a great price! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a mixed experience at El Barril. While the tacos were delicious and had an authentic taste, the service felt a bit rushed, and our drinks took a longer time to arrive. Despite that, I appreciate the quality of food and will likely visit again, hoping it was just an off-day for the staff. " (*Curated Review*)
