Review of Barra

I was really excited about this place but disappointed to learn once we got there that about half of the menu isn’t celiac safe. One item on the menu (fried shrimp) has gluten and the restaurant only has one fryer, so all the tostadas, empanadas, and several other dishes are not celiac safe. I had two tacos that were very disappointing, because the blue corn tortillas basically disintegrated into a soggy mess in my hands. The drinks took about 15 minutes to arrive, and the food for our party of four came out one dish at a time over the course of an hour—no one got to eat at the same time as anyone else. Overall a really disappointing experience. I would not recommend it.
