Roach Salasa!
Reviewed by LuvJones on 2010-02-02T11:44:32Z

I have been tehre on more than 1 occasion but one particular time my friends and 1 went and there was a roach in the house salsa. Now whe the mangement came by he had the nerve to infer that we put it in the slasa which made the experience worse. So long story short DONT GO!

Pros: cheap drinks

Cons: Roaches in salsa

I've had many great memories with LA BARCA! Margaritas, tacos and AMAZING chips/salsa! The atmosphere is ideal for large groups and socializing! There's always a positive and energetic vibe at La Barca. The waiters are sassy and welcoming in the best of ways!! If you order THE COLOSSAL Burrito, you will honestly have to share!! It's GIGANTIC, yet AMAZING!! Probably the biggest burrito in LA!! La Barca left me with many great college memories and I will always highly recommend!

Pros: Great value and MARGARITAS!!

Cons: Parking

I really enjoyed my time at La Barca on Friday evening - it was packed with the USC crowd, as well as families with kids - in the small entrance way, it was standing room barely! But once you get in, the margaritas are flowing, the 2 big screen tv's were showing the Laker game - it was pretty much all good. Seems to be able to pull of being a family restaurant as well as a trendy, hipster hang-out.

Pros: Super great prices on all kinds of Mexican foods

Cons: Gets VERY crowded; parking
