Our server was so nice & gave us great recommendations for drinks and food! We sat on the patio and loved it bc the music was so loud inside. So we were still able to hear it but also have conversation too! Our drinks were the star of the show! AMAZINGLY DELICIOUS! Passionfruit mojito and a smoked colada!!Our app was delicious. I can't remember what it was called but it was cheese covered plantain. It's was sweet and creamy! My husband and I both got arepas, and agreed they were just okay! I love that there are A TON of gluten free options here ! (I'm glad I didn't check the food violation list before I came here though bc it looks like they consistently have a lot :/ )

As a GF gal, this is one of my all-time favorites in the area. The Lakewood location is so great and we're happy with our meal everyyyyyy time. Granted, we get the same thing almost every time lol -- but still, this is a place you can count on for a delish date night, great service, and fun environment.Ropa Veija (both the meal and arepa) 10/10 !

My friend had been here before and loved the vibes so she suggested it for dinner. We had a reservation but they didn't seem busy as of yet for a Friday evening.We had a fantastic server! Can't remember her name but she was friendly and personable. She also let us move to another table since it was wobbly.We ordered a pitcher of the traditional mojito to share along with guacamole, then we all opted for arepas. I got La sucia (steak), while my sister got Pernil (pulled pork), and my friend got the Mexicana (chorizo with jalapeños). They also give you a handful of sauce options for the table which give a bit more spice or flavor to the arepas.The arepas come with a side so we all chose yuca fries. The arepas are pretty big and kinda heavy so I had a hard time eating all of it. We all had leftovers for the next day!Overall, I like the decor. The outdoor patio had a tiki vibe, while the inside is more modern with a motorcycle in front of a wall decorated with flowers and greenery. They also had TVs outside showing the baseball games.Tons of parallel parking nearby. But there's also a large parking lot just a bit down the street. I'd come back!

Back again in two weeks! So good, and really accommodating for the GF MIL. Love the ambiance, so fun and casual. Love the cocktails, both mojito and red sangria! Got the chicken skewers and arepas this time which were all very tasty. Loved the ropa vieja! Sweet, salty, savory! My MIL loved the pork arepa and chicken skewers were good but could be made at home. Recommend the black bean soup!

Just another quick update on my most recent visit to Barroco last night! Yet again, Barroco knocked it out of the park with their food, ambiance, and service! I ordered a shredded beef arepa, the "Rojo verde," with a side of yucca fries this time. I liked the arepa I had last year better (see previous review) but I ate everything and was very full and content! For this amazing meal, I paid $18 plus tax and tip. I cannot wait to go back :)

It is getting warm in the city and we love a good patio situation and Barroco delivers. The patio is super colorful and festive. A great backdrop for a girls evening out.They have a great drink menu complete margaritas, mojitos etc. I ordered a passionfruit mojito, complete with a raw sugar stick, that I delightfully chewed on after my meal.I ordered a veggie arepa, with a side salad. I wanted to add grilled chicken to it but they have a policy of not adding anything to arepas. They can however, take items out of the arepa.Our server was attentive and knowledgeable.

My local friend recommended this spot for dinner and I'm glad we checked it out. Barroco was a lively, loud, fun experience with a welcome shot of tequila, live music, and great drinks. Their specialty is Latin American food with a large selection of arepas. There are great gluten free and veggie options as well as plenty of meat for carnivores. We were seated right away in the cozy enclosed back patio and the place was very busy and hopping on a Friday night. The menu states that they have the best mojitos on the planet, so I got the passionfruit. It came in a bowl-shaped vessel and was indeed the best mojito I've ever had. It was pretty sweet but strong and delicious. For food, we each ordered an arepa which comes with a side. I got the pernil with tostones, and Nate got the birriarepa with maduros.As we ate, one of the servers walked around and serenaded us with some beautiful singing, which was a really fun experience. The place was definitely pretty loud so it felt a bit like a party. The arepas were generously sized - we could have split one and been full! The pork was juicy and tender but lacked seasoning for me. The birriarepa was really tasty. I loved the crispy tostones but if you like a sweeter side, go for the maduros. Each table has a caddy of five different sauces, which were fun and delicious to try. I'm glad we got to check out this spot!

Delicious food with lots of great options to choose from and amazing atmosphere with live music performances. Their service is also great, they made sure to give some great recommendations on their food options and they were spot on. Their drinks are served in very cute ways too and makes them even tastier haha definitely great place for some great latin food!
