El Barril,

940 Pavilion Street, Cincinnati, OH 45202

"Our family had a great experience at this restaurant. It is spacious. Nicely decorated and kept very clean. The staff was attentive, friendly and helpful. Our food was delicious and the portions quite generous."

"The service was great, atmosphere is good, but this having been the second El Barril I've been to, the food is just lacking pizazz. It's good though and I'll be back, it just doesn't make you go wow. For something to eat though and watch the game and hang in Mt. Adams this is a good spot."

"We had such a good experience! We had our three kids (7, 4, 1) and the service was incredible. Our server, Melanie, was on top of everything before we would even ask. We will definitely be back. The food and the service were 10/10."

"The restaurant itself is very lively with a large projector playing sports and multiple TVs. The tables were greasy and the chips and salsa was underwhelming. The salsa was not fresh. The chimichanga and quesadilla was greasy too. The restaurant food was underwhelming and not good Mexican for vegetarians especially."

"My husband and children found this gem while our son was at the Children’s Hospital. We travel from VA every 3.5 months for treatments for our children. On the first visit here, my husband and children were greeted and were given a tour. The kids felt like royalty. In fact, our daughter still tells everyone about it. They raved about the food when they picked us up from the hospital. Three months later, our entire family went there to eat. The staff was so friendly and constantly checked on us. The food was delicious! We are a food allergy family and it is very difficult for us to eat out. Some of our food allergies are anaphylactic. I explained our allergies and asked questions. The waiter went above and beyond. We had tacos, wings, and I cannot remember what my husband had. Everything was great and I am glad I was able to experience it. We are back in Cinci for treatments and we cannot wait to go here today to eat. Our 8 year old daughter has been begging to go back here to eat. Would we recommend this place, absolutely!! Every 3-3.5 months when we are in town for treatments, you can guarantee we will come here to eat! Thank you for providing safe and delicious food and for a staff that knows what they are doing!"
