I’m an absolute taco lover, and this spot totally won me over! 🌮 The tacos are insanely delicious and very reasonably priced. You can really feel the passion and love for food coming from the kitchen. I’ll definitely be coming back. I tried a variety of flavors, and hands down, the duck taco was my favorite—it’s sweet, fresh, and absolutely mouthwatering. The shrimp taco was just okay, but everything tasted really fresh overall. The drinks were fantastic, and the music created such a great vibe. I love this place, and I’m already planning my next visit!

I had an amazing experience at bartaco and can’t recommend it enough. From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere was chill yet upbeat. This is exactly the kind of place you want to spend time catching up with friends, enjoying great food, and pausing the conversation to talk about how good the music is. What really stood out, though, was the service. Our group was a 20+ top, which can sometimes slow things down at restaurants, but the staff handled everything impressively well. The service was friendly, attentive, and surprisingly quick given the size of our party. Everything arrived smoothly and the team made sure we were well taken care of throughout the entire meal. A special thanks to the manager, John Taboda, for going above and beyond to make sure our experience was excellent. That

No wait time! I ordered the seared chorizo and retro chicken tinga tacos and my friend ordered the pork belly, shrimp, and the chicken verde tacos. Our favorite was the chicken tinga with the chicken verde as a close second. We also ordered Mexican Sprite and Coca-Cola. We also ordered churros and tres leches, but a while after the churros arrived I realized they might've forgotten the tres leches. I did notify the waitress and she apologized and brought it to me a few minutes later. I would say overall it was a pleasant experience.

★★★★★ 5.0 Jessica Turnish · Nov 2025

Popped in for some solo dining and was delighted with the experience. My server, Erin, took the time to explain how everything worked since I hadn’t been before and had great recommendations when asked. Food was pretty good, just the right amount for lunch and super flavourful. Lots of people in there at that time so a nice, relaxed atmosphere too!

★★☆☆☆ 2.0 nick vargas · Mar 2026

Went in with a group of friends to have a fun time at bar taco. BUT every time we go there is literally an issue EVERYTIME. They give us these taco chips to make up for the experience but there's no point...Our waitress was amazing, very soft spoken and attentive. The manager on the other hand, the worst. We had placed a good sized order and we were missing one taco. The roasted duck. We noticed as soon has he brought us our order. When he came back around and asked how everything was, we mentioned we were missing a taco and this guy just completely switched up and said to my face, I am a liar. He refused to talk to us and was very spiteful because we were minorities. We told him, check the cameras, check with the chef, why would we complain over a simple taco if it weren't true. Horrible
