Within the last month, two new soon-to-be-favorites have come to Mears Park in St Paul. Both migrants of their Minneapolis originals, the Barrio and the Brasa Rotisserie have opened their doors to the people of St Paul.

Barrio, a tequila bar, features Mexican favorites with unique Latin twists. With Chef/Owners such as Tim McKee and Josh Thoma, you know it has to be good.

Brasa Rotisserie offers up signature meats, such as rotisserie chicken, pulled roast pork and slow-cooked beef, as well as imaginative southern and carribean sides.
