We had another great experience at Barrio Brewing! You simply cannot beat the Tuesday 'South of the Border special when talking about value. All of their tacos are amazing, and the quesadilla is solid as well. The salsa that accompanies the meals has a beautiful smoky flavor - it's so good! The craft beer list is diverse so everyone can find a few they will like, and all we have tasted are really very good. The service is always very good and the location at the Deer Valley municipal airport makes for great scenery! We'll definitely be back.

Such a beautiful place to watch the sunset but there wasn’t anyone to greet us or to give us a table that we reserved on Open Table when we got there so we ended up at the bar, unfortunately. They weren’t that hospitable at all which for bartenders in a place like this was rather surprising. They actually acted annoyed by having to acknowledge us and were not friendly.
