Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Los Barrios is our family's favorite place to eat here in San Antonio. The food is great, the place is huge and the owners are nearly always there to ask us how we're doing and if we're enjoying our meal.
That said...well, I'm a bit biased about Blanco Road's best eatery.
The cookbook, though, is a letdown. We bought it while paying for a meal and had it autographed (Diana was our cashier) immediately. The book has some great stories, but the recipes are watered down versions of what's on the menu. We attempted to replicate our fave foods at home (y somos talentosos en la cocina). We couldn't with the book.
It's a fun read, but it's not going to enable you to make tasty, Los Barrios-like mole at home.
