Barra Ñ
Barra Ñ brings Argentinian flavor to Roscoe Village with satisfying steaks, cocktails, and a lively bar atmosphere that regulars love for watching fútbol, meeting friends, and celebrating events. Friendly staff, DJs, and weekend dancing add energy, though the music can be loud and service may slow dramatically during packed matches; some guests also find portions small and prices high.

“Got 86 because a paraguayan guy offended my family and hit me! I love Argentina and this bar and I’m ok if I can’t get in! All love and respect 🫶”
“Great place, perfect Argentinian food and atmosphere! All the staff is really friendly. I’ll come back definitely”
“Overall it’s fine. Music was loud, so a little hard to have a conversation while eating. Service was decent. Food was just ok, definitely overpriced. Probably best to stick to the steaks for the mains, which is their specialty I believe. The steak sandwich (lomito) was fine. Fries are fine. The milanesa was just ok—didn’t have enough seasoning. Drinks can vary, and have specific descriptions, but they are not all made how the menu says, like ice and garnishes. El chato was tasty, but the Buenos Aires de Noche was missing something. Empanadas are fantastic BUT they were out of a bunch of them and they just opened for the evening, which was unfortunate. Desserts are solid, including the flan, alfajores, mil hojas, and the vainilla y coco pastel. I recommend saving room for dessert!”
“cute spot with some nice potential vibes. we stopped by early on a saturday for a quick-ish dinner. i’m pretty big fan of tango sur and the convenience shop attached to it (i get ~50 empanadas for my bday party each year) and tango sur has excellent ambience and desserts. this place however was a bit off the mark for me: i was excited to eat the milanesa (my fav argentine dish) after having some excellent ones in buenos aires last october. sadly it wasn’t as good as i was expecting or that i’ve had before. also had to ask for lemon which seems pretty standard when ordering milanesa usually. too much chimichurri sauce for everything. the sad little salad (a chopped tomato with a few leaves of lettuce) didn’t add up to the $25 dollar milanesa. (it’s basically a breaded half of a chicken breast). the cocktails were just okay, also had to ask for one of the missing ingredients (i saw them open a new can of cherries once i asked, seems like they just didn’t want to bother the first time around). they also didn’t have a bunch of the empanadas (the sweet beef and the corn ones are the best ones they make and were missing from the menu but available on the other menu we had). and they also didn’t have the inka cola or other colas (also available on the menu). thought this was odd considering they had just opened for the day. the dessert which i always love at tango sur, was good but the flan was a bit discombobulated when i got it, but generally tasted fine. the one at barra ñ randomly has strawberry syrup and powdered sugar (unnecessary), which is different than the one i typically get at tango sur. i’d love to say i’d come back, but the pricing is just a little out of control for the food provided. and although i LOVE bad bunny, i think the blasting of the music inside the small restaurant at 5:45p is a little ridiculous. made it harder to have a convo at the table.”
“One of my fav Argentina spot in the City food is very good watch a fútbol game there is a must to.”
“Is not the place it used to be. Mojitos getting smaller and $$$$$$”
“Lugar súper recomendable, el dj y barman A1. La atención y música son muy buenas. Fui 2 días seguidos y la experiencia fue única cada día.”
