Wow just had an amazing meal at Barrio tonight. The $40 Saturday night banquet was fantastic and great value, the best meal out I’ve had in a long time!
Fantastic! Some of the best food I have ever eaten. Oh what a sauce I'm in heaven. Love!
A hidden gem in Mayfield! Nice and cozy restaurant. Love the food. Authentic and creative tapas. Every dish is full of spices and flavours. They have a wide range of alcoholic beverages available. Good atmosphere and friendly service. Highly recommend!

Recommended by a colleague I wasn't disappointed. Barrio has a constantly changing tapas menu with the dishes written on the blackboard above the kitchen. Booking is essential. I got the following:
Lime spanner crab with avocado and tequila tomato on tortilla chip - wow, what a lovely burst of freshness from the tomato, crab, creamy avo, and the crunchy chip. Lovely way to start.
Mushroom and Manchego paella rice ball with parsley aioli - nice and crunchy on the outside, soft and gooey on the inside. Love the earthy flavours of the mushroom, the tones of Manchego cheese, the creamy paella, the richness of the aioli and the peppery tones of parsley.
Chilli beef and cheese empanada with sour cream - lovely pastry encasing a warming tender beef and cheese mixture. Didn't carry any chilli kick but a dab of sour cream added a nice creaminess.
Spanish meatballs with fetta, thyme and parsley - this is a hearty meal. The Spanish meatballs are reasonably large, lovely pork and fennel flavour, immersed in that flavoursome tomato sauce with the bread to sop up every bit of goodness!

The dishes here are so delicious. Everything is full of flavour and cooked really well with high quality produce. The garlic prawns here, especially, are some of the best I've ever had. Treat yourself to the Saturday special - the set menu is great value and the variety is amazing.
Amazing food and great staff!
We went here for the first time for our wedding anniversary last November, were so impressed by the food that we were quite excited about going back. Again, delicious food but spoiled for us by two things.Saturday night is banquet night at Barrio 2304 and a great way to try a few of their tapas dishes. We went recently & began with 6 different tapas followed by dessert.- really tasty & enjoyable
Went to Barrio a couple of nights ago.
Unbelievable Experience. Everything is made fresh to order!
The wine list is amazing and really well priced, plus the bier selection rivals some of the best in Australia. I cannot recommend this place enough. Just get there and experience brilliant food at the right price.
Staff know the menu back to front and really make the whole experience a pleasure.
The food was amazing! Loved the variety of dishes, which pack so much flavour. Both the ladies were lovely serving/cooking. Highly recommend 👍.
The menu is small but is cooked to perfection. Care is taken into each dish and they make it hard to decide what to choose.
The service is always good with staff taking the time to chat and explain the menu and what works well.
You can taste the quality of the food in each dish. Some dishes you must taste are the chorizo cooked with tomatoes and coriander, Mushrooms cooked in sherry with goats cheese and the pomegranate lamb.
