Detroit's Most Hidden Gem for a decade now, only open Saturday and Sunday. On our dozens of visits never ever seen non Hispanic folks. It's always packed with families shopping for good's straight outta Mexico. The owners from Mexico City have a large following. The most unique Meat's not found anywhere in Michigan, just take a look at the menu photo. We had a couple traditional Quesadillas on 12in Corn Tortilla. Just Ma n Pa and Son helping too, always fast friendly service. No sign just find the address a hundred yards off Junction on Michigan Ave. The flags flying out front, best to park around back since front always full. The largest selection of Mexican Men's Women's and Kid's clothes. Nope not one local newspaper or internet sites have ever wrote about this place. I keep sending to them, support small Ma n Pa business, just maybe a food writer with show them some Love. After a decade in business it sure would be nice. #mibarrioplaza #hiddengem #eatswdetroit #smallbusiness #mexicocityfood #cornquesadilla #quesadilla #mexicanfood (at Barrio Mi Plaza) https://www.instagram.com/p/CkzM1C7sRZa/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Happiness be the start of Sw Detroit restaurant week, ten whole days of unique menu items at 20 eating spots. The very first day this special dish gonna be very hard to beat. Very Best Mole Sauce ever Green Chicken Mole will tickle your taste buds I assure you. Old school hidden Gem for 40 years. Only Ma n Pa run the place both got mad skills, Grandma's kitchen only place in Metro Detroit that operates from the home they live at. We been regular customers long time the feeling of home each visit. Not a place for you hipster looking for really bad Mexican smothered in Cheese, that's on Bagley. This couple has cornered the market for old timers from Mexico that live around town. I've had Mole many places the traditional style, nothing ever like this, explosion of marvolus flavor each bite. Ma made this from scratch, nope will not find this any other place in Michigan. She had Guacamole and a Botona spot on delicious. RIP my friend they son passed away this year.
