Barragans

Service is great and the chips are delicious! I ordered cheese enchiladas and they were delicious will definitely come back.

I visited this restaurant for the first time ever at this location in Glendale. The bar is extremely small and with only 10 people drinking..it was a full house. My party sat in a round table in a room near the bar with a television showing the Laker game. Margarita's were under $3 and tasted good according to the females in my group. I had ice cold Hefeweissbier beer. The ambiance was ok. Latino-Veterano Old Timers. The staff was slow but friendly. Parking is limited so I parked in a nearby residential street.

Here, at last, is a Mexican Restaurant that does not bombard you with an atmosphere of forced fiesta-mania, yet is always fun. One can actually hear one's dinner-mate here, unlike others, which assault you with a cacophany of noise produced by everything from television sports (any restaurant with a television on during dinner is OUT in my book), overly amplified music, and even karaoke going on in the bar area, sometimes all at once! (It's the throw everything but the kitchen sink into the mix approach, and hope the customers get suitably jolly I suppose. Just gives me a headache.) But Barragans, in comparison, is an isle of relative peace in comparison, and the music is background, never too loud. I've said it before and I'll say it again: if the chips and salsa are great in a Mexican restaurant the food will follow accordingly, and it does here! And the icing on this tasty Mexican cake? The staff are are attentive,good-humored, charming, and CUTE (both the waitresses and waiters!) All in all, a low-key, but thoroughly enjoyable place where one can get ones fix of good Mexican food and a nice margarita at a reasonable price. (The original Barragans on Sunset is good too if you want a slightly more old school, traditional version of the same place.) I prefer the Glendale version; they have their own parking lot.Try it! Este es perfecto!
