The location is near the Furniture Factory and close to the intersection of Meridian and Pratt. I went around 7 pm on a Friday night and placed my order to go. There was a pretty decent crowd eating in the covered outdoor dining area. A few people had their pets. Someone said the Margaritas are very great there. Service was good. It took only about 10 minutes to prepare my food. I ordered the deluxe beef bowl with flour tortillas. The beef was a delicious grilled steak chopped in bite size pieces. The bowl came with pickled onions, cilantro rice, guacamole, beans, lettuce and topped with fried cheese. Total price was $22 including tax and a $2 tip for handing my order to me. Honestly, I felt it was a bit on the pricy side, but the food was delicious! I was very pleased. I give it a 10 out of 10! I will definitely be back! read more

Really enjoyable meal, came here on a local recommendation. I was about #10 in line when I arrived about 530 on Wed night. I thought that wasn't bad but the order at the window definitely takes some time. All the service staff is super friendly knowing there will be a wait. By the time I ordered the line grew to about 25 to 30 folks. Good news is I ordered a the drinks were ready fairly quick for pickup. By the time I put things at the table and got my napkins the food was there. They ask you to order prior to seating, please do so because that helps their system work. I had the broccoli, shrimp and fish tacos with chips and queso. Can't forget the margaritas. The tacos were great, perfect amount of acid and fresh cabbage. Ask for the spice because that really goes with the pomegranate seeds they put on. Really happy with all three. The queso was standard queso with store bought chips but I did not mind it. Their margaritas were also good, I know they make them in bulk but was fine with them. They have breakfast there which I am sure is good. It is all outdoor seating which is fine on a perfect spring day. Just be patient if going close to dinner or happy hour. read more

Great new casual taco spot near downtown Huntsville! Barracuda tacos offers a great variety of tacos, including a tasty broccoli vegan taco! Other menu items include quesadillas, breakfast tacos, queso, margaritas, beer, jarritos and a variety of sides. The vibe is very laid back, just walk up to the window and order, grab an outdoor bench picnic-style table, and your order will be delivered. We were the first in line for lunch and waited about 10 minutes for our order, which wasn't bad. Our food was delivered hot and fresh with just the right amount of sauce and spice! Our only negative, was the small tacos were a little pricey, with tacos ranging from $3.95 to $6.75 for their beef taco. There is a huge parking lot on site and plenty of tables, so bring your friends and family and enjoy a fun meal! read more

Wonderful new addition to (close to) downtown. A walk-up taco shack situation. Go up and order food at one window and drinks/chips at the other grab a number and take a seat. Downsides: No price on the margaritas and they are expensive ($15 for 16oz) lots of ice not a lot of marg. Outdoor only, so only good for nice days -- but lots of seating. Line to order can get a bit long. Meat was a little dry on the chicken and beef tacos. Upsides: Delicious margaritas - so fresh and tasty! Wonderful fish taco - could order so many of these. Fresh and flavorful. I loved the pork taco as well it has the pickled red onion which I loved. Look out for specials posted on socials or next to order window this week was chicken tinga tacos (looked wonderful)! HSV needed a fun outdoor patio vibe that serves tacos and margs ofcourse The servers were very friendly and our food came out promptly. Restrooms on - site ! Overall, this is a fun spring/summer meal with buddies. Relaxed atmosphere with picnic taco vibes. Look forward to trying more of the food read more

I totally forgot to take a picture of my food because I was starving and had to get back to work, but the chicken and pork tacos with rice and beans were absolutely packed with flavor. Everything was fresh, seasoned perfectly, and just really yummy. I really liked the chicken taco, rice, and beans. They did forget to include salsa in my to‑go order, which was a little disappointing, but it was their soft opening and they were very busy, so I'm giving them grace. The food itself made up for it. I'll definitely be back -- and next time I'm bringing my husband and our dogs. There's plenty of outdoor seating in the front, on the side, and behind the building, plus lots of parking, which makes it super convenient. Great food, friendly service, and a spot I'm excited to return. Their first location was in New Orleans. Be sure to check it out, especially when the weather is nice or even in the evenings. read more

The food was fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care. The tacos had great seasoning and the ingredients tasted bright and well‑prepared. Service was friendly and moved quickly even with a steady crowd. The only thing keeping it from a full five stars is that it is outside and it will get HOT in the summer even with the fans. Still, it's absolutely worth stopping by -- a great spot for a tasty outdoor meal. read more

The food always has ridiculous amount of flavor, love the atmosphere and the margaritas never disappoint. read more

Barracuda Taco Stand - Patio area - Mexican Near Me - Huntsville, Alabama

This place doesn't give any change if paying in cash. If your order is 8.00 and you give 20 they keep the 12.00. This is absolutely ridiculous for a business. They have an accessible ramp to enter but you must take the stairs down to patio. Food was ok but not worth returning for. read more

Business picked up the line got long and here she comes around the tables and will order you whatever you need! The covered tables were great for those avoiding the sun! Pssss dog friendly! read more

Order: Pork taco Steak taco Shrimp taco Chips + queso w chorizo Mangonada freeze Agua Fresca (strawberry) Total: ~$50 (which we felt was expensive for what we got - the mangonada freeze was $15; it was I think 16 oz? It was the larger size of the two they offered) Flavor wise - I only tried the shrimp taco, it was spicy, but good! The chips tasted like old grease or oil (?) not sure, but it was an overpowering flavor that wasn't quite pleasant. My husband said the other 2 tacos were fine but nothing outstanding per se. I think we may come back during happy hour and try again Service and ambiance were nice though! read more

The food and service were pretty good. I'd recommend isolating the area where people can dine with pets though (pet dander is something I prefer not to have in my food). Good food and atmosphere outside of that though. read more
