tacobarn Sandy Hook

Tried Taco Barn for the first time and it absolutely lived up to the hype worth the drive from Hartford to Newtown. Ambience & Service- Loved the barn-style decor and cozy vibe. Andrew was friendly, attentive, and accommodating especially with my vegetarian request and even making an off-menu espresso martini. Food: Ordered Salsa and guacamole were great, though some chips were overly salty. Tacos were the highlight cauliflower, mushroom, and fried avocado were perfectly balanced and packed with flavor. Others at the table loved the pork belly, jerk shrimp, and chicken options. My husband loved the coconut sauce on jerk chicken and mentioned he felt he was having something out of a Thai food menu. Glazed pork belly was cooked to the perfection and loved the flavor. Our friends in the table

Absolutely beautiful establishment. So many details in their decor, and in general. Upon arrival right at 4pm at their opening time, we were kindly greeted at the host stand after passing by a beautiful fire out front. We chose to sit upstairs and were given the cutest little nook of a booth right by the servers station. Absolutely blown away by their standards, by even covering the waters with plastic wrap while waiting for its table. Service was excellent, she explained in detail how the salsas worked as well as how many tacos usually are enough for a meal by the server as well as drink reccomendations. However, not realizing I am a blogger she did wonderful, but the food was sub par. We ordered the salsas with an added guacamole, we didn’t really have a favorite of any of them, chips w

2nd UPDATE: Tacobarn is now open at 12:00 pm on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday!!! Also the best, most original cocktails you've experienced. UPDATE: We came back here two days later because it was so good! I'm still going to give it five stars and a value rating of ten. This visit, we again sat at the bar and we were lucky enough to be served by Natalie, the hardest working bartender in town who was able to singlehandedly keep up with the deluge of customers flooding into one of the best restaurant in the area. Tonights highlight was definitely the Guacamole and Chips, mostly because the chips they are serving are HOUSE MADE and are the best and most unusual corn chips I've ever had, and the guacamole was super fresh. The cocktails here are original and unique. I'm ready to move in he

I walked in, I was warmly welcomed and sat at a table upstairs with my guests. I ordered the Pineapple Express mocktail that was tasty while the three others ordered alcoholic beverages that they all enjoyed. We ordered a bunch of small plates, tacos, and sides and everything was insane! The mushroom taco was delicious, the jerk shrimp taco scrumptious- but honestly the dish I keep thinking about is the shrimp ceviche. It was not like any other ceviche I have ever had- but trust me, you should have it! Citrusy,light, and refreshing. We were too full for dessert, unfortunately, but I can't wait to go back! Tacobarn is going to be a hot spot and a fun place to enjoy a great meal with friends!

tacobarn is my new favorite local spot. The food is fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care — you can tell a lot of pride goes into every dish. The tacos are always packed with flavor, and the menu has something for everyone. The staff is friendly and welcoming, and the atmosphere feels relaxed and fun. If you’re looking for delicious food and a place that truly values its customers, tacobarn is definitely worth a visit. We’ll absolutely be back!
