Margaritas on the LES

April 29, 2008

I finally checked out Barrio Chino on Broome Street between Orchard and Ludlow on Saturday night. Usually when I stop by the small, open-aired Mexican restaurant, there’s between a 1 and 2 hour wait. But thanks to some cold, rainy weather, I got a table in under 20 minutes. The food was delicious and cheap—two very important criteria. And I finally got my spring margarita fix, even if it didn’t feel like spring weather. If you’re going to go, get there early or expect a long wait… or pass the time with margaritas, caipirinhas, or some sangria. (And order the Enchiladas Verde… yum!)
