Great little taco spot! The breakfast tacos rock! Will definitely have to come back in the evening to try their drinks. They have a liquor and beer. Welcome to the neighborhood!!

This place sells tacos. I like them. Plus, breakfast tacos all day, a nice selection of agave spirits, and Mexican beers. A much welcomed addition to the neighborhood. Go here and eat tacos.

I stopped here for a quick bite to eat. They have a couple of taco options as well as small plates I got sweet plantains and 2 tacos. Overall everything was pretty good. Not bad for a quick stop

Cantina Barba Is a classic mezcal bar, I visited the bar at night after winding down from a fun night in the city. The food here is reasonably priced, and the ambience is pretty cozy, I personally haven’t had a chance to visit the bar in daylight but I’m willing to bet it’s prettier in the day time. Ambiance: outdoor patio 10/10!! Spacious, and vibrant at night. Indoor seating 6/10 a bit cramped, indoor seating gives off dive bar vibes. Cuisine: 10/10 classic bar food, the nachos were even better!! Price Range: reasonably priced, the chicken quesadilla was priced at $8 with a drink. Parking: 4/10 awkward real estate location, late night stiff parking. Alcohol/smoking: Alcohol/Smoking friendly Operating hours: 9AM-2AM SUN-THU, 9AM-3AM FRI & SAT, great spot to hit up late at night.

Great, cozy mezcal bar which also serves outstanding tacos, quesadillas and burgers. Food and drinks are ordered at the bar and are then promptly prepared and delivered to your table. Indoor seating is limited but there is a nice outside deck offering a lot more space when the weather is nice. The food is a bit pricey but absolutely delicious.

Awesome Little Cantina. Highly recommend checking it out. They have good food, good drinks, and good staff! They have solid Tacos and cocktails. They have a Hidden Gem on their back patio that is 1000% worth visiting.

Enjoyed an amazing lunch on the outdoor patio at Cantina Barba on a weekday and had an amazing experience. You get the authenticity of authentic Mexican food truck dishes with the refined atmosphere of a great cocktail bar/restaurant. I enjoyed the taco’s, chips and horchata! Everything was well seasoned, I received great service, the meal was prepared quickly and otherwise I had a great meal here. Definitely recommend for great tacos, drinks and good vibes. 🌮 🥑 🍹

Too hot to handle. Everything was awesome. Except eating hot Mexican food in the Texas heat on the patio while pounding the delicious mecalritas lol. Do reccommend the quesadillas, Veg or barbacoa, elote, and drink mentioned.

I love that they're open late! The staff is always chill and friendly. Parking kind of sucks but I live close and doesn't bother me to come back when the rush dies. There's plenty of patio space to sit and eat. I love to order the veggie tacos and a margarita on the rocks. They have the best Margaritas in this neighborhood!

After reading about this place on Secret Houston I wanted to love it so much. Unfortunately I did not and one of the reasons was because of why I wanted to go in the first place, Birria. Upon arriving we were told that the Birria isn’t available until 2pm (would have been good to know) so we ordered other tacos off the menu. We tried the papas con rajas (best taco we had!), smoked pork and carne asada. Apps we had were plantains. The meat tacos were fine, just like any other taco and the tortilla seemed pre-made. The best taco was the papas which was very good! The plantains were amazing as well and would recommend. After we got our food the lady who took our order came and told us it was our lucky day because the Birria was done early. So I eaglery hopped in line and got 2 orders. First the price was a bit high because it was $11 for 2 tacos and then the whole taco itself. I must have hyped it up in my head so much because the tacos were disappointing. We had Birria a couple weeks before in Vegas and those were damn good, so I was hoping the same. Unfortunately it wasn’t close. The meat and broth were fine, no flavor really, and the tortilla seemed pre-made again. The only flavor came from the cilantro and onions. Needless to say I was let down and wouldn’t recommend the Birria. We were told the most popular item on their menu was the hamburger, and no one in our party got that, so that’s our fault I guess. If you stop you gotta get the papas con rajas and plantains. Also make sure you stop Thursday - Sunday because the bar next to it is open! We wanted to try the bar (another reason I wanted to visit) because it’s the tiniest bar in Houston and the drink menu looked fire!
