" One of my favorites! Their barbacoa is really something special, it's rich and decadent. I love supporting local businesses and La Barbacha truly embodies the spirit of Mexican cooking. For anyone searching for authenticity, this is definitely the place to come. The homemade tortillas complement the dishes extremely well. Keep up the good work! " (*Curated Review*)

" Visited last week and although the food was alright, it didn't quite hit the mark for authenticity. Tried the tlacoyos but they were not as expected. Service was friendly but the wait times were excessive. Maybe had higher hopes based on reviews. " (*Curated Review*)

" Just visited for the first time and found the place to be both good and a bit underwhelming. The barbacoa had great flavor but I've definitely had better elsewhere. Service was polite, but waitstaff seemed overwhelmed during lunch hours. I'd give it another shot on a quieter day. " (*Curated Review*)

" La Barbacha blew my taste buds away! The barbacoa was rich and flavorful, reminiscent of family gatherings back in Mexico. The handmade tortillas paired perfectly with the dish. The only downside was the slightly long wait time, but it was well worth it. I can't wait to return! " (*Curated Review*)

" Not impressed. The barbacoa lacked flavor, and the tortillas were cold. The atmosphere was a bit chaotic, which made it hard to enjoy the meal. Service was slow, and I felt neglected. Would not recommend based on my experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" Came in for lunch hoping for a quick meal, ended up waiting over half an hour for our food! The barbacoa tasted great but the service makes me hesitate to recommend this place. If you can handle slow service, the food is definitely worth it. " (*Curated Review*)

" Having traveled across various states searching for authentic Mexican cuisine, La Barbacha has now captured my heart! The barbacoa is vibrant and sweet, paired with tortillas so soft they practically melt in your mouth. I've never tasted pulque so fresh in my life. It felt like a piece of home cooking nestled in the heart of LA. I could spend all day here just indulging in their offerings. Highly recommend to anyone looking for genuine flavors and a welcoming atmosphere. Do note, there might be a bit of a wait, but patience equals deliciousness! " (*Curated Review*)
