“Summer flavors include the sweet taste of mango salsa as a fresh addition to any of our meals,” said Barberitos Founder and CEO Downing Barber. “We are excited to bring this popular topping back to the menu for people to enjoy for the rest of the summer.”

Barberitos uses fresh, hand-cut mangoes, pico de gallo, cilantro, peppers, jalapenos, fresh lime juice and sea salt to make the seasonal salsa, which offers a zesty, tangy contrast to the traditional tomato-based salsas found at the restaurant's locations. All of the Barberitos salsas, including the Mango Salsa, are made fresh daily.

Many of the restaurants’ menu items are prepared or cooked in-house daily, including hand-smashed guacamole, home-made salsas, fresh-cut vegetables as well as chicken, steak, pork, turkey, tofu, rice and beans.
