I don’t want to be that guy, but let’s face it, I am that guy. So before we get to the actual meat and bones of the new pseudo-Mexican restaurant Barrios, I need to address the big enchilada in the room: man alive, does their name make me uncomfortable…
Barrios is the latest outing from the Good Egg Dining Group, located in the gentrified Midtown District at 1000 N. Hudson Ave. Their mission, according to their website, is to provide “fine, fresh, made with love Mexican food,” including “authentic Mexican cuisine, street and market food, plus a new take on regional TexMex (sic).”
