output: The service here was OK the first time we went but the kitchen was out of everything, even tortillas! I realized everyone has a bad day and really wanted to give them a second chance. I went back the other night and was just as disappointed in the service and quality of the food. The one thing they do great is the guacamole. With that said, the quality of the other dishes was sub-par. The pork was so tough it was almost beef jerky like. The chicken was dry and flavorless. The Fish on the tacos was soggy and cold. The server was so overly pushy with trying to get me to buy the most expensive tequila for a margarita that I just changed my drink order to water. Overall, for the prices they charge one would expect well seasoned, properly cooked, and overall nicely plated food. That's just not the case. It's been bland, tough, cold, dry and disappointing every time I've tried it. This place could do so much better and really be a great place to eat with a large group of friends or on a romantic date. The kitchen doesn't seem to care and the wait staff just wants to up-sell and is not very knowledgeable with questions about the menu. I gave Barrio Queen two chances, and will not give it a third. I can not recommend Barrio Queen at all.

output: Came here for a simple smog check. The gal behind the counter was just straight up rude and seemed like we were bothering her and keeping her from updating her Instagram selfies. As I started to give her information she said it would 15 mins before she could get to it. But there was not a customer in the place? With her bad attitude I took that as I'll get to it when I want to. Guess she had to get that last perfect selfie in. I didn't want to waste any time so I took my car down the street to Sinclair and was done in less than 10 mins. And it was $8 cheaper. My advice is to go there if you need a smog or car wash.

THE most amazing experience of my life (so far) was at Carnevino. It consisted of a multi-course meal and wine pairings for each dish that we were served. Where to start? I think I'll begin with the food... - Bread, butter and lardo: Yes, I know... sounds incredibly unhealthy (as I'm sure it was) but it was undeniably DELICIOUS, in particular the "lardo", which consists of lard (pork, I believe) and herbs. It was the perfect spread for the warm ciabatta bread we were served. While eating this, I ordered a glass of Aragone Toscana wine, and my fiance ordered the Tritono Malbec. - Beef Carpaccio: PERFECT cut of "melt-in-your-mouth" meat, with crostini on the side. I was so happy with it that it nearly brought tears to my eyes. - Black Fettuccini: Pasta made with squid ink topped with a sauce made with crab, shallots and jalapenos. I have just one thing to say about this- TO DIE FOR. - Osso Buco a la Milanese served with saffron orzo and gremolata: THE best osso buco I have ever had! The meat literally fell of the bone and it was seasoned perfectly! - Dry Aged bone in ribeye steak: So... this is kind of pricey, but it is the most amazing steak I have ever had. It has a very unusual but outstandingly delicious taste. It is a pretty big serving, so I'd say it is worth every penny. - Sides: Mascarpone and Guanciale mashed potatoes (mashed potatoes+mascarpone+ "super" egg= WHO KNEW?!?!?!) and fried polenta cakes. Both sides were fantastic! We had a different type of wine paired with each of these dishes, recommended by our server. I highly suggest doing this when you are there. It will really add to your experience. Desserts: - Hazelnut Semifreddo with fudge sauce - caramel date fritter (with pistachios) with vanilla gelato - Gelato trio (vanilla, espresso and mint stracciatella) - fresh berry tart ALL desserts were amazing! We finished off with a digestif- my fiance had montenegro and I had Argiolas Mirto Tremontis. The service, the ambiance.... spectacular. It will be hard to find a restaurant that even remotely compares to this place where I live in California. Until I am able to return to Carnevino, I will be daydreaming about it on a very regular basis. It was THAT good. Notice the repeated use of superlatives in my review? Trust me..... it's because Carnevino really is THAT good.
