Barriles is a wonderful place to eat, drink and hang out with friends or family.<br><br>A couple of us stopped by to watch some games here (they have a ton of TVs) and were taken care of by Paola and the manager Jenny. They were amazing and attentive, we loved the people here. The menu is very large and offers a bit of everything for everyone. The salmon, steak and burger we ordered were all great, and the apps were amazing.<br><br>We didn’t drink on this occasion but they literally have bars on each side and a large selection of drinks.<br><br>It’s a sports bar, so expect the whole shabang of drinks, TVs and crowd, especially during futbol or basketball. Price wise I would say it’s a premium but you do pay for quality and a better ambiance, which is fair.<br><br>Parking is street and relatively easy to find, didn’t take us long during dinner time.<br><br>Definitely going to be coming here during the World Cup. Crowd and food were great and recommend to those looking for authentic Colombian food and drinks.

Response from the owner

Wow!!! Thank you for such a thoughtful and detailed review. This truly means so much to our team! We love that you and your group caught the games with us and got the full Barriles experience. Paola and Jenny will be so happy to hear you called them out by name. We can't wait to have you back for the World Cup, it's going to be such a vibe! Mil gracias, and see you soon!<br><br>— The Barriles Team

This is my favorite restaurant! The people here are so friendly and the vibes are great as soon as you walk in the door. The food is incredibly fresh and every dish is so delicious and well thought out. Even the bar uses the best quality ingredients and in turn they make the tastiest margs i’ve ever had! It’s hard to say if i like the food or the atmosphere here better, but the attention to detail is apparent in every dish, decoration, and interaction with the staff. You’re a 10/10 Barriles, keep up the great work!

Ive came here in many occasions and may I say the service is always great and the food never fails to disappoint. The drinks are also very good. It can get busy on the weekends but good for like a birthday dinner or date plans or any celebration since they sing happy birthday to you and they got a photographer if you want to capture any moments. I think really makes this place unique. My recommendations are the entraña steak, pechuga a la francesa and churrasco mariposa are great options. Their mojitos are my go to and frozen margaritas are pretty big.

Response from the owner

See you soon!<br><br>— The Barriles Team

Barriles Restaurant & Sports Bar delivers a great mix of flavor, energy, and hospitality. The food is consistently fresh and well‑seasoned, the drinks are strong, and the atmosphere makes it easy to relax or enjoy a game with friends. The staff is attentive and welcoming, creating a place that feels like a neighborhood favorite. Highly recommended for anyone looking for good food, good music, and a good time. Barriles Restaurant & Sports Bar never disappoints! The music is lively, the food hits every time, and the staff treats you like family. Whether you’re catching a game or just hanging out, the energy is always on point. One of the best spots around.

I can’t believe I paid $14 for shredded lettuce I got the mixed salad and they gave me a bowl of shredded lettuce . De verdad estaba horrible la comida me cobró 54 para un ensalada y un appetizer .<br>Super expensive for something I wouldn’t feed my rabbit .

Response from the owner

Good afternoon,<br><br>The mixed salad is a variety of vegetables that were certainly included in this dish. We are known for offering generous portions relative to the price and for paying attention to every detail in each preparation.<br><br>This is a dish to which any type of protein can be added, which was suggested by the server.<br><br>We would love to welcome you back to the restaurant. Please feel free to ask for the manager, Jenny, who will gladly guide you through our menu and introduce you to the wide variety of salads, as well as other carefully selected dishes to provide you with an excellent experience.<br><br>Regarding the price, in addition to these dishes, two cocktails were included, which are not being considered in your comment.<br><br>We appreciate your feedback, as it helps us improve. However, we would like to assure you that our portions and the quality of our products are aligned with our pricing.

The inside of the restaurant looked really nice with all the decorations they had. The service is pretty quick and the food was pretty tasty especially if you use their salsa. The price is not too bad either. I also like that you are greeted from the beginning and how they open the door for you as you’re leaving. Overall, I had a great experience and would come back.

First time being in Barriles and as soon as you coming the place vibe is good. The service is great by all personnel. The drinks were pretty good. Once we ordered food didn’t take long for us to get our orders. You can taste that is cooked with passion. Everyone at our table was amazed with the presentation and the portions. It might be a little pricey, but is worth it.

Response from the owner

Barriles is and has been one of the best Colombian restaurants I've ever tried. Five months ago, I ordered a Barriles corn cake with pork rind, sweet plantain, and guacamole. I was expecting an arepa, but I ended up receiving several pieces. I loved the combination of flavors. The service was excellent, incredibly fast despite how busy the place was that day. They also offer a wide variety of dishes like soups, salads, pasta, and chef's recommendations such as seafood, salmon, and grilled meat. As a Colombian, I LOVED the dishes from my country and highly recommend this place.

Response from the owner

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re thrilled to hear you enjoyed your Barriles experience and loved the food. It’s fantastic to know that our service and variety of dishes made such a great impression.<br><br>We’re so happy to hear that our flavors hit home for you. Your recommendation means a lot, and we can’t wait to welcome you back again soon! 🇨🇴💛

We found this Colombian restaurant by coincidence and were immediately attracted by the outside, which has the look of a fun sports bar. After checking the menu, we decided to go in—and we’re so glad we did! The experience was excellent from start to finish. The drinks were amazing, the food was absolutely delicious, and the atmosphere was lively and welcoming. I will definitely be coming back with my family.

Response from the owner

Wow, thank you so much for the kind words! 💛 We’re so happy you stumbled upon us and had such a great experience! Can’t wait to welcome you and your family back for more good times!

We had lunch at Barriles in Queens and shared a picada it was incredibly generous and perfect for sharing. The food was absolutely delicious, full of flavor, and freshly prepared The drinks were made with real fruit on the spot super refreshing and natural. On top of that, the service was exceptional: friendly fast and welcoming Highly recommended if you’re looking for a great meal and a great vibe. Thank you, Barriles!

Response from the owner

Wow, thanks for the awesome review! 🎉 So glad you loved our picada, it’s a fan favorite for sharing (and we never skimp on portions!). Thrilled you enjoyed the fresh flavors and real-fruit drinks too. Your shoutout about our friendly service means the world to us. Come back soon!

Really great food! Authentic. I love how they decorate this place. It’s like Christmas exploded in here. It’s amazing. Full Colombian vibes. Only thing they are missing is Morcilla, but they made up for it giving me carne molida with my bandeja, which is not on the menu :) definitely recommend. Would go back!
