bartaco

Absolutely loved this place! Delicious food and great drinks. Calvin was an excellent host. Highly recommended.

Great open atmosphere. Very nice on a great day when the sun is shining. When they are busy and even if you are seated, it may take time to be served. Sat at the bar and the bartenders did a great job, just may need more. Appreciated the Sangrita- only had them that tasty in Mexico.

Every time I’ve visited there’s been a 45-minute wait even though half the restaurant is empty. Other Bartaco locations are great but this one seems mismanaged and understaffed.

It's always a challenge to find good tacos in the DC area and if you follow my reviews, you will know the best places I've found. This particular place, BarTaco, is a posh type of taco place along the Wharf. Again, if you read my reviews, you'll know I don't care if it is a fancy place or a hole in the wall with the ceiling caving it. As long as its delicious, I'm all for it. BarTaco serve their tacos kinda tapas style as they are smaller than a typical street taco but they do packed a good punch of flavor. You won't find any traditional flavors on the menu like Al Pastor, but the cauliflower tacos was actually really good. I would come back with friends for a little happy hour snack after work and get a shot of tequila from their wide selection. However, the prices are a little steep for the size of the taco. Like I said, flavor is all that matters to me but I know price is important to take note of. I would recommend a cocktail and two tacos for a quick bit of fun but then go somewhere else to actually fill your stomachs. I eat a ton so I would have broke the bank order enough tacos to fill myself up. Nonetheless, the food is good and definitely worth a stop if you are wandering about on the Wharf.

I am black and would 100% recommend! The tacos are small but affordable. I suggest asking for recommendations from great bartenders. Also this mojito recipe was different than I am used to but was really goood. The service was great and I will be back.

The tuna tatako was exactly what I needed. Good atmosphere & drinks.

Can't go wrong here with their tacos.

Delicious margaritas that the server squeezes the limes for right in front of you. Tasty Mexican street corn, tacos (fish, ribeye, chicken, shrimp- we tried many) that were all amazing. Black beans and tortillas with salsa that were the perfect starters. A fun vibe with a great bunch of servers. So glad we checked this place out. Would be a regular go-to if I lived in DC.
