Update: For those of you who’ve been eagerly awaiting the opening of the Barrio in Willoughby — and judging by how many of you shared the original post announcing the new location, that number includes just about everyone who lives on the east side — you don’t have to wait much longer.

Barrio announced yesterday that its newest location in the former Olivor Twist location in Willoughby will open on Jan. 15. Get a sneak peek of the project below.

(Original story 9/6/17): Barrio will be opening yet another location soon — this one in Willoughby this December in the former Olivor Twist location. The fifth outpost had been rumored for a while; the taco and tequila restaurant confirmed the news this evening.

“We love downtown Willoughby and have been looking for the perfect location for a while. Considering Barrio means ‘neighborhood,’ we feel this is the perfect neighborhood to further expand our brand east,” Sean Fairbairn, President of Barrio Restaurant Group, said in a press release.

When it debuts, Barrio Willoughby will be open Monday – Thursday 4 p.m. to 2:30 a.m., and Friday – Sunday 11 a.m. to 2 a.m.

It’ll join Barrio’s locations in Tremont, downtown Cleveland, Lakewood and Cleveland Heights.
