Barra

The tacos were an absolute surprise and absolutely perfect. The house margarita was amazing. The street corn was perfect and will keep you going back for more. While not a typical "family" restaurant, the staff were very sweet to my grandkids who absolutely loved the cornbread. There is seating outside which is lovely in the good weather where you can enjoy people watching while you eat, but if it's Ambiance you want then insides for you.

We were visiting Cedar Point as a group of 11 and looking for a place to eat. This was our 2nd choice since the other place didn't have enough seating. Barra was able to seat us quickly. The service we received was very good. Our waitress was attentive and offered suggestions. The drinks were good, even the house margarita, which is usually my most places below average. I had their infused margarita and definitely recommend. We ordered the appetizers with chips, salsa, queso, and guacamole for the table. The queso was good, the guacamole lacked taste, and we had to add salt and squeeze our own lime from our drink to give it flavor. The salsa was bland, and we added the garlic hotsauce on the table to make it decent. I had 3 tacos and street corn. The corn was average, my tacos were actually pretty good, the Barra dust on the cauliflower was tasty... maybe they need to add it to the other food. My table mate had a bowl with grilled chicken and, again, no flavor or seasoning.... this was the agreement of two with the chicken. I'm scoring a 2.8 for service, drinks, and my tacos. If they work on seasoning their food, it would be a really good place to visit.

I went to Barra during a trip to Sandusky, OH.Location: great! Very close to 'boardwalk'. There is ample street parking.Decor: very creative. Made the most of a narrow location with several tables along the wall that has a color palette that pulls you in.Service: very good and efficient. Just the right amount of attentive.Food: last but not least food is very good. The steak in my burrito bowl was amazing? Only reason for not giving them a five is the flavor nuances in my rice and side dishes- lack of them to be more precise. They need to spice things up a little.Overall: highly recommend if you ever visit Sandusky, OH! While you are there don't bother looking for where the Tommy Boy was filmed. Apparently not here.

Found this place on Yelp while visiting Sandusky, OH. It's unassuming from the outside. The inside looks pretty cool with rusty iron walls, high ceilings and a bar. It's a narrow and long space. The menu is very creative and has a lot of options. If I had more time, I would have loved to try more. I got the street corn side and it was delicious. Our waitress asked if I wanted it off the cob. I didn't even know that was an option but it's so much better than eating it on the cob and getting it all over your face! I also got the carnitas taco and the surf & turf taco. The carnitas taco was delish. The carnitas were very tender and flavorful. The feta cheese threw me off. There was a lot of it on the taco and I wish it was queso blanco or queso fresco. The surf and turf taco was awesome. The steak was very tender and well seasoned and I lived the chimichurri that came with it. The service was quick and polite. You should check it out.

The tacos were all huge and delicious and the service was great. My only complaint is that the guacamole wasn't that good.

Walking along the sidewalk their laser cut steel sign is easily missed, the narrow front facing the sidewalk hides a small restaurant with a long solid wood bar counter with more stools than you might expect for such a small place. They have a full bar and a selection of beers, including a Mango Habanero the server suggested. A fruity palette with a biting swallow, not my thing but another local brew (Pacifico) did the trick. We started with salsa and chips, what a surprise: freshly made salsa and a huge tray of chips, delicious. We followed up with lobster taco's that were as good as "anything lobster" we have had in Maine! Service was happy, attentive, quick and appreciated. Restrooms clean, what more do you want, other than giving place a try!(NOTE: They have some negative reviews none of which was reflected when we visited today)

Service was amazing and so was the food. If you like unique tacos, then you will love this place. On my favorites list for Sandusky!

This food in this place is not real Mexican. It's like pseudo Mexican cuisine. The use the word "shell" to describe a tortilla. That should have been my first clue and walked away. They use flour "shells" which everyone knows it's not what you should use in a taco but alternative was hard shells??? Like Taco Bell tacos. They literally have a ground beef hard shell taco with cheese and salsa. At $7 per single taco , just go to Taco Bell and get them for a fraction of the price. 2/10

We were staying at Cedar Point and wanted to get away from the park food. Found this place on Yelp and immediately appreciated the positive reviews others had posted. We arrived just before closing time yet the staff took care of us and were very accommodating. The bartender came right to our table, took our drink orders and provided some recommendations. We ordered some appetizers, a classic taco, and the street tacos. The food arrived quickly, was hot, and tasted wonderful. The tacos were not your typical American variety laden with cheese and other toppings. These were authentic - simple yet full of flavor. Highly recommend this cute restaurant and am glad to add to the positive reviews.

The food was good but not worth the money, guac was bland and the tacos were as flavorful as led on. Everyone in review is raving about the drinks. They are good....while they last. Very small glass, for the price they should be twice that size. If money is no object for you, and you are looking for quality primarily, I highly recommend this place.
