We had an exceptional experience from start to finish. The food portions were the largest we have ever encountered, ensuring that we left fully satisfied. The service was top-notch, with the staff being incredibly attentive to our needs. As someone with celiac disease, it can be challenging to find restaurants that take dietary restrictions seriously, but everyone went above and beyond. They carefully catered to our gluten-free requirements, making sure that every dish was prepared safely. Overall, we highly recommend Barrio Costero for anyone looking for delicious food and outstanding service, especially if you have specific dietary needs.

The food was excellent. We tried 5 different dishes to share. Each one was flavorful and tasty. I highly recommend this restaurant. The only drawback is we found it to be very noisy and hard to hear. We would definitely go back.

The menu is not what it used to be. Not only was it a very small selection, but the kitchen was out of half the things on the menu. Everything was very sweet and tasted like cinnamon. It’s a shame because it used to be a great spot. Probably won’t be returning.
Barrio Costero- Asbury ParkResponded on August 26, 2024
Hello - Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We’re sorry to hear about your experience and that the menu selection and availability didn’t meet your expectations.

We'll be looking into the menu options and kitchen inventory to ensure a better experience. We also appreciate your note about the flavors so we can review with the team. We hope you'll consider giving us another chance in the future. Thank you again for bringing this to our attention.

Food was very good. Service was just ok from the hosts to the server’s. I was here a few times years ago and there was a very nice man that greeted people and made you feel welcomed I seem to remember the name Anthony. However the food was really good.
