" La Barbacha has some of the best barbacoa I've ever tasted! Each bite is packed with flavors and the tortillas are a perfect complement. Just be prepared for a casual experience - it felt a bit disorganized during rush hour. Would still recommend to anyone who loves real Mexican food. " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely love La Barbacha! Barbacoa is my go-to, and it truly feels like a homemade meal. The ambiance is homey, albeit simple. It can get quite busy, so the wait can be a bit longer during peak hours, but it's always worth it for the food. Returning soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" Came after hearing rave reviews but was underwhelmed. The barbacoa was good but not exceptional, and the service just did not cut it. I would recommend improving service to fully match the quality of food. Disappointed overall. " (*Curated Review*)

" It's disappointing to see such mixed experiences here. My meal started off well; the salsa was fantastic, but the service left a lot to be desired. It took far too long for our orders to be taken, which ruined my experience. Not sure if I'd go back again. " (*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*)
