    My husband and I live nearby and as our favorite neighborhood cantina was taking it's time to open and Mi Barria was nearby we decided to give it a try. I can't say enough about how amazing the food was. The reviewer above me talks about the surreal atmosphere and he's absolutely right, it's beyond strange but the food more than makes up for it. I got the taco loco and was happy I did. There has to be at least a 4 star chef lurking in the in the kitchen unseen and unknown cause if any of the local eateries tried his food they would have stolen him away. truly you won't regret going there.

    I think they have the address listed wrong. It's 5023 Wake Forest Hwy, Durham, NC 27703, not wake forest rd. Anyway the food here is super delicious. Husband and I visited many times and never got disappointed with their food. They always serve their in house chips and salsa and it's great. You can't missed their pork shank. It worth much more than the price you pay.

    Stopped by for take out last night, first time visit. They actually have chili verde on the menu, which is only something you commonly see in the western US. Server said it was good, so I tried it. Not the way I make it myself, but flavorful and the pork was very tender. Chips were fresh, salsa was flavorful and also fresh. I will be back for tacos al pastor in the near future! This is a small, hole in the wall place on the eastern edge of Durham County, but definitely worth a visit. Most meals were reasonably priced, too. Huge serving of to go sweet tea really hit the spot. I am sure you can get Americanized Mexican food here, but do yourself a favor and try something different and more authentic.

    A hole in the wall, I use to frequent when I lived in the Dirty Durham. I am happy to say it is still a great place! They have a great authentic Mole, fast nice service and good price! Very small place, but if you are in the area it is worth a stop!

    My wife and I tried Mi Barrio after finding a coupon and were impressed to find some of the best Mexican food around in a slightly surreal environment. The place is sparsely populated with televisions running peculiar Mexican variety shows (at least they were the last three times we've been there). Few members of the staff speak English, but all of them are warm and eager to please. They have a typical Mexican Restaurant menu, but the food is fresher, better. The combination plates are much larger than typical, more commercial Mexican places, although, I usually shirk the combinations for the al pastor or chorizo tacos. They have different salsas for your dining pleasure (although you have to request them, they don't bring them automatically). After dinner, you will sometimes get complimentary sopapillas (this seems to be a random occurrence, though). When you walk in the door, you ask yourself "why is this place still here?" When you leave, you just thank goodness that it is.

Mexican Cuisine

If you enjoy Taco Tuesday, then you have officially fallen in love with the Mexican Food. The main grain of Mexican cuisine is maize. Also known as corn, maize is grown for the past 9000 years after the crop was discovered by the people in Mayan civilization. Mexican empire flourished when they started growing beans, tomatoes, chili pepper, sweet potato and cactus. Till this date these ingredients are used in cooking authentic Mexican dishes and drinks.

Great use of spices, fresh chili pepper dishes like fajitas, tortilla chips, corn chips, salsa, chimichangas, burritos, nachos and quesadillas are invented in America. But when you are looking for authentic Mexican food then you must find a restaurant in the city that serves Rajas con Queso, Garbanzo in a Guajillo Chile Sauce, Pork Filled Chiles Rellenos, Chiles en Nogada, Molcajete Salsa, Pico de Gallo and Frijoles de la Olla. An eye-opening fact – Mexican don't like their food hot. They use fresh chili and other spices to create a flavor that lingers in your mouth.

Mexican food is great for those who are Gluten Intolerant as they use Corn instead of wheat in most of their dishes. Also, you can easily find many beans based Mexican dishes. Another dish which didn't get similar glory as tacos or nachos is the Mexican hot chocolate. If you love something hot on a chilly day, then go for Mexican Hot Chocolate. On merry days, you can enjoy the authentic Mexican Drinks like Tequila, Mezcal, Tecuí, Sotol, Bacanora, Charanda, Posh O Pox, Puebla and Pulque. Mexican Cuisine is for people who enjoy strong drinks and hearty meals.
