I'm surprised I never reviewed this place. Barrio Fiesta is excellent. I visited here with a friend from Manila and his wife, and they are also fans. Barrio Fiesta is a nice, casual sit-down Pinoy restaurant in the Eagle Rock area. I only tried about three dishes from their menu, but I two of them were wonderful: the pork sisig (diced pig ear, onions, carrots quick-cooked in vinegar, pepper, and soy) and the shrimp gambas (shrimp cooked in garlic, lemon, and spicy sauce). I was only so-so with the kare-kare, as I like it to have a stronger peanuty-flavor, but again, the sisig and the shrimp gambas were delicious.
The service is nice and friendly, and you can make reservations. I do like Salakot Sizzle and Grill in the Silverlake / Historic Filipinotown area better, but Barrio Fiesta is still a must-visit, authentic Pinoy restaurant. Their menu is also quite extensive, and I'm looking forward to my return to try some of their other offerings, e.g. sinigang, crispy pata, tokwa't baboy, laing, inihaw na pusit, inihaw na bangus, and of course their desserts!
