Bartaco will get my money everytime. The menu is always on point. The service is always considerate and speedy (though I have had a few hiccups with their tableside mobile ordering ). Perfect place for a girls lunch or a casual date! read more

Bar taco has some good margaritas and tacos, but the tuna bowl is the best. Service was good and you can pick if you want to order on the app or with a person. If you have a group then they have room for you. read more

bartaco - Menu Feb 2025 - Mexican Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

I hadn't been in a while, then I went twice in two days--once with my boyfriend, then with my best friend--and honestly, I'd go again tomorrow if I could, but let me chill...I usually grab a cozy booth or sit outside, but this time, I found myself at the bar--and it was just as fun! You order from the server with paper menus that you fill out, so it's a little different than the completely digital format at the tables, but more personal which is nice. Great energy, fast service, and still that laid-back, beachy vibe that you can enjoy year-round. Per usual, the Baja fish tacos were crispy and straight-up addictive. The plantains, too! If you haven't yet tried them with the remoulade (sounds strange, I know, but you gotta trust it), it's a must. And we love a Libélula tequila flight. Had one each night. Honestly, I don't understand how this isn't everyone's favorite taco spot, because it's clearly one of mine. If they bring the lobster tacos back in the summertime, it's on! read more

Upon entering the establishment, We were immediately sat! The way the ordering system works was very unique as well. You dont get a waiter unless you request one and all of the ordering and paying is done by scanning the QR code on your own personal phone. While it does take away the human interaction a bit, it is quite convenient! The ambiance and establishment decor was absolutely stunning. It wasn't too crowded or loud and the music played all throughout was pretty good. After we placed our orders, the food and drinks came out within 10 minutes! I first had the chicken taco and the shrimp taco and then I had the Baja fish taco. The chicken in the chicken taco was a bit undercooked but the flavor upon initially trying it was great! The shrimp taco and the fish taco were my favorites! I loved the spice in it and the flavor was perfect! I had the green marg which was super amazing as well! Overall, my experience was great! I can't wait to come back and try more tacos! I say 4 out of 5 for the lack of human interaction and the undercooked chicken. Other than that it was great! read more

Late night tippin. This trip to bar taco wasn't so great. We came in 2 hours before closing and waited an hour for a table. Service was even more sketchy. We were shuffled between a few waiters, then told a lot of the menu wasn't available. Maybe I'll try again.... One day! Parking garage a block away read more

It's always a great experience when I dine at any bar taco no matter the city. For years I have been addicted to the Baja fish tacos which NEVER disappoint and I always end it with the delicious key lime pie in a jar. This time my daughters encouraged us to try something new, so we feasted on the duck birria tacos and a we must say we approve. I recommend you give them a try, packed with flavor, doesn't taste gamey, and aren't greasy. The service here's always smooth and prompt. We like the vibe of this area. Perfect spot to be on the weekend read more

Pros-Atmosphere and food is good. Lots of options for everyone and their kids menu is pretty great! Cons-The hostesses weren't great and pretty bad with communication. We did call ahead seating and was told it would be approx 30 mins. 30 mins turned into 45 mins which turned into an hour. We had to ask them the status, and they wouldn't keep us updated. Another con is that you share servers so if we flipped up that we needed help, it was like the servers would assume that somebody would attend to us so it was pretty slow. Would I come back? Maybe if it was on a weekday for an early lunch. Also, parking situation sucks. read more

I came by for a late lunch and do some work while waiting for traffic to chill out. It was a really nice experience. The host/manager greeted me and took me to a place with an outlet and that I could spread out. They have converted to QR ordering for good it seems (I thought it would be temporary with COVID but no) and it's a bit of a hassle. Each time you want to order something you have to scan the QR code (regardless of if you already did and have an active order), enter your cell number, check the bicycles or bridges or motorcycles or whatever in the weird bot test (it's extremely difficult to pass with extremely poor resolution and it always takes me a few tries) and then enter a confirmation code sent to your phone EVERYTIME you want to order something. That and having to input all your CC information at the start before you can even order something. It's a huge pain in the ass. The QR ordering system does pan out when you want to leave. You just close out on your own time and take off. I do like not having to ask for a check, wait for the check, wait for the cc to be picked up, and then wait for it to be run and returned. I've had most of the stuff on the menu, as it's pretty short/straightforward. There are different proteins: fish, pork belly, tuna, duck, chorizo, shrimp, chicken, ribeye, that you can have as a bite on a corn taco shell with some binders, or as a bowl with rice. They have veggie options like mushroom, falafel, & cauliflower, again as a very small taco or a rice bowl. I didn't like the tacos that much-- they were chewy, and the corn tortilla has this flavor that overpowers everything. It kind of tastes like packaging a bit, sort of like it came in a big plastic bag or was sitting somewhere for a long time. The shells are not that great, so it's sort of pointless to put fresh ingredients in them, IMO. I ordered the ceviche which was delicious and fresh with cold well-seasoned shrimp and spice with jalapenos. The chopped salad was also nice, but maybe a bit overdressed with too much fresh cheese so the flavor wasn't balanced. My favorite was the roasted chicken and the yum cilantro dressing it came with. Service as always was super friendly kind and welcoming. The space is very pretty. Parking situation-- there is not parking lot. You can park on the street or parking lot super super close. It's about 3 dollars an hour. read more

I ate here for an early early dinner Saturday night after an afternoon at Lenox Mall. I haven't had bartaco in a while and never at this location. My friend was the bigger bartaco fan, although this meal may have converted me. I ordered the nojito, small guac w/ chips, plantains, four tacos (mushroom/cauliflower/chorizo/pork belly), and key lime pie in a jar. Not a fan of mushrooms but this one was decent. I thought the cauliflower was a little dry/unseasoned. The meat tacos were both great, and I am a die hard pork belly lover. The key lime pie dessert is the coolest concept ever and is so refreshing but not too sweet. I also loved the dip for the perfectly crispy plantains. The bartenders were all wonderful (Kay & Aaron & Xavier), and I had a lovely conversation with the manager Natasha. They have a beautiful space, including an outdoor patio that will definitely be nicer when the temperatures cool down. Definitely will be back! read more

Bartaco is a great in so many ways. They have multiple locations, you can add your name to the waitlist beforehand, you can order a variety of tacos and the prices are reasonable, you're able to order right on your phone, and the vibe inside the restaurant is relaxing and comforting. I will say our service was a little slow this visit. The main reason I'm not giving them 5 stars is because they only have 3 parking spots out front which are usually taken so you're forced to pay for parking in the deck across the street or PayByPhone street parking. I'd go more often if I didn't have spend money just to park my car. But overall, Bartaco is a great spot! read more

Bartaco has been on my restaurant wish list for some time. My husband and I decided it was finally time we paid them a visit. It was a Thursday evening, and the restaurant was moderately busy. We were promptly greeted and escorted to a booth inside. The vibe of the place is so dope! It literally feels like you stepped into an exclusive, sultry bar in the Caribbean. From the woven baskets hanging overhead as lights, to the bamboo lined walkways, I loved everything! Several members of the waitstaff immediately came over to introduce themselves and explain how to order. They gave us a sheet to mark off the items we want to order. Tacos are street style, which means they are very small (think 3 bites max). Also, everything comes out as it's ordered for freshness. We ended up ordering about 10 different types of tacos, cucumber salad, plantain, and two mixed drinks. Everything was delicious! My favorite tacos were the Ahi Tuna, fried oyster, and chilli lime shrimp. Really, all of them were good. All in all, I enjoyed my experience and would definitely come back to try more items on the menu. read more

I used to love coming to this location, but I'm a bit disappointed in their service as of late. 5 of my family members & myself visited on a late afternoon. We were seated almost immediately & our server came to greet us. She asked for our debit/credit cards, due to issues with customers running out on their tabs. We just visited this location a month ago & this wasn't a thing. The manager and the server then told us that their "QR Codes" weren't working so we had to use written menus. Which we thought was strange, being that you don't use a qr code to order here, you usually write the number & type of tacos on the paper with the pencil?! I immediately thought, either the demographics for this area has changed or the service has declined and they were forced to make this new change (side eye). We ordered our food, & our server let us know everything wouldn't come out @ the same time. We were ok with that. What she forgot to mention was, we needed to put the card up, for her to come over for assistance. Another waitress brought our food over, I ordered my usual fish tacos, duck tacos and a chicken. I also decided to try the pineapples with Tajin. Unfortunately the pineapple were white and unsweet, so I ended up sending them back. The amount of tajin wasn't worth the price either :(. After waiting on our server to check on us, we asked another server to bring an additional fish and shrimp taco. 20 min go by, we needed refills, our limes slices were cut to literal edge with little to no flesh for juice & we wanted to request extras. I wanted a soda, because the water tasted strange. 20 min later, She comes back and says "I want to confirm yall wanted the extra tacos" fed up, we cancelled and spoke with a manager. He was understanding and comped our orders, but sheeeesh. I'd hate to stop coming here. He also confirmed they were making some changes with their processes, which could be the reasons for the hiccups. The food is consistent, the service just needs work. Thank you for your understanding Dan! read more

I was staying within walking distance and ordered my food to be done around the time I arrived on foot. It wasn't. However, while I waited, the server did immediately seat me at the bar and I was waited on there. The decor and layout of the restaurant was nice. The churros were quite doughy and I'd asked for two vanilla sauces instead of one vanilla and one chocolate. They gave me two of each. I like spicy food so I didn't mind, but as a warning all the salsas are spicy. I got the pistachio cauliflower taco and the giving Brussels sprouts taco which were both excellent. I also got chips and guacamole, but the guacamole lacked depth. It would've been nice received updates about my order as multiple people came in to pick up orders after me. It was an additional 10 minutes after the pick up time before my food was ready and there was no apology about the wait. read more

This location was my favorite! Small with great vibes and the staff were amazing. Food is always great and their margaritas were top notch!

Pretty good spot for some quick bites. I really liked the fish tacos. All the sauces were also pretty good. The jalapeño wasn't too spicy but flavorful. The pork belly honestly wasn't my favorite as it was a little too sweet for me. My friends really enjoyed it though. The tuna ones were also delicious (not pictured). My favorites were the shrimp and fish ones. Overall a good place to visit with friends and they have a nice outdoor seating area. But would get a better deal at more authentic taco spots. read more

Really cool venue with a lot of fun places to explore before and after your meal! It's surrounded by restaurants and activity themed places too! The bar service was a bit chilly but it's holiday season so I'm sure they are exhausted. We came in for drinks primarily. The sangria is delicious. It's not the strongest, but if you are looking for a light cocktail choose this one! The mojito is so sour, fresh and good! One of my favorites! I also tried the corn appetizer. It was great. Very warm and salty from the feta. You have to be a feta lover to love this appetizer! Salsa verde also is very good! All pretty small portions I must say. read more

One of my fav taco spots in ATL! They have multiple locations, but i went to the one on Roswell Road. They have dim indoor and outdoor seating. We sat inside because it was cold outside. Their service is different because you don't have to order through a waiter/waitress. There is a QR code you can and somehow it links to the table and you just order whatever you want through your phone. This is the FUTURE. You can order all foods, desserts, and also drinks. My favorite tacos from here are the falafel tacos and the mushroom. Definitely give them a try! read more

We come to Howell Mill location a few times a year. One thing that is different about this restaurant is you need to place your order on the app by scanning the code affixed to the table. The servers are there only to bring the food/drinks and to clear the tables. There is no usual chattiness or attention unless you flag someone down. They have little cards that you are supposed to prop up when you need service, but no one really pays attention to those. They also do not take reservations but if you have their app on your phone, you can add yourself to a wait list that starts ticking off 30 minutes for you to show up to the restaurant. This does not guarantee you a table though. Now to the positives: the food is good and so are the drinks. I love their brown rice bowls and the steak tacos. The salsa trio is super salty, so I won't order it since it always disappoints. The patio is nice in summer but sometimes the music is very loud and it's hard to communicate. Overall: parking may be tricky (street parking is usually hard to find but I do believe they have valet), nice patio, good food and drinks, spotty service. Your make the call ;) read more

I order my food on door dash but the issue was with my order. I ordered duck tacos and a duck bowl. I do not eat pork, beef or chicken. I got a very sad order of duck meat and tortillas. There was no onions, no cheese, no salsa. The corn was good. It was pretty expensive but there was nothing to compensate for what the big ticket. THEN... I clearly got some meat that was NOT duck in my bowl. I was so sad and angry. The hype did not match my experience or expectations at all. Yikes read more

Great experience here! We have been to other locations but the west midtown one is the best. The staff here are just great, walking in we were greeted with energy. Nothing better than already feeling welcome. The wait staff came to check up on us even though you order through your phone it just felt like we were VIP. Ordering on the phone is hard for people who are not great with tech (me) but they helped immediately. Parking is tough they do have a public parking deck down the street that was $2 for two hours. Food wise always satisfied! We got the trio with salsas and guacamole. It didn't come with enough chips, but they brought more out! The tacos, I always get the fried oyster you can't go wrong with it. My fiancé liked the tuna taco but wish it was on a corn or flour tortilla (maybe it can be subbed out) the birria tacos were sooooo juicy. The side sauce was more of a thick soup vs. what birria comes with typically needless to say it still had all the flavors that you would expect. read more

Now tacos...they were very good, very small and can goo or it down in a few bites but full of flavor. My favorite was the duck! As a shrimp lover I went all in with the shrimp tacos but they were disappointing. They chef almost did too much to them So the flavor over powered the shrimp. I don't recommend them. But would recommend all of the other tacos. Enjoy my friends. read more

I STAN BARTACO.! :)) Decided to meet up with my best friend to catch up on all things LIFE.. & of course Bartaco was the lunch place of choice. I absolutely love Bartaco. I'm always excited to go . the ambiance is soo aesthetically pleasing. Very calm & relaxing, but also slightly casually upper scale. Coastal vibes. The parking at this location was totally lacking.!!.. which is super inconvenient.! :/ However.. The food was delightful. The guac, delicious. Tacos, while super tiny, were super delicious. The fried oyster taco is by far my fave .. Baja fish a close second.! Plantains, yumm & the corn... YES.! The service was good. They are more of a hands off serving type of restaurant. The menu is found by a QR code in the table.. if you need assistance.. you put up a dragonfly card, & they come & assist you when needed. It works for me.!! Will definitely be returning.! Highly recommend.!! read more

Amazing Service!!! Rachel at the bar was amazing!!!! I love Bartaco, definitely come here if you love Mexican!

I've been to Bartaco a few times in the past, but I haven't been in awhile. I got a chance to dine there on Tuesday with some friends. Prior to going, I called ahead and we were able to join the waitlist. When we arrived, our table was ready and we were seated right away. Now a few things have changed since I was last there like the ordering process. They have a QR scan code on the table and everything is ordered and paid for by phone. This is definitely convenient and more COVID safe, but the way things came out, especially with a party of 9, was a little confusing. Some people ordered the same items, so it was hard to tell whose food was coming out. It would be nice if they called the name with the order, I think that would help. Our table ordered a variety of food and drink items off the menu. The guacamole and chips, Baja fish tacos, pork belly taco, Esquites (Mexican street corn off the cob), and the spiced chicken verde taco were among the favorites. We also ordered salsa roja and chips, crispy oysters and chili-lime shrimp tacos. I personally liked the crispy oysters taco. It was very flavorful and tasty. The chili-lime shrimp taco was good, but definitely super spicy. Some guests couldn't even finish it due to the spice level, so beware. For drinks, we ordered a hibiscus mezcalita, an old thymer, margaritas, and other drinks. For some reason, it took forever for some of our drinks to come out, but once we got them, the drinks were all really good! Overall, our dining experience was good with some minor kinks. However, I plan to visit again in the future and hopefully the ordering issues will be worked out. Bartaco is good spot for a quick bite to eat and drink. Definitely check this place out if you're in the area! read more

Came in with Baby Love on a Thursday night around 9PM. Once seated, you scan the QR code on the table for the menu. First scan wouldn't let us order, only view the menu. 2nd attempt it wouldn't go through because it froze several times when it got to the credit card portion. Ended up doing a paper order after tracking a server down. Write the drinks up top and added special instructions at the bottom. "NO DAIRY" in all caps. For the restaurant not to be busy, the service was really slow. We patiently wait for something ordered to come out. Our drinks are first, very delicious. I ordered a Spicy Margarita. My salad comes next. Very good! Same for the guac and chips that finally arrived. Quite some time later, our tacos came out. Woot woot! We ordered portobello, falafel and cauliflower. Two of those needed to be altered because we requested no dairy. Just looking at them, our request was ignored. We asked the waitress to confirm, to which she replied "they all got dairy". Errr....so we send them back to try again. Back to the extreme wait time with this half empty restaurant. We decided to go ahead and cancel the request. Enough of the shenanigans for one night, refunded for the tacos and left. I've been to all of the Bartacos in the area and this is the first where the customer service was below sub par. Probably won't be back to this location. read more

I've been wanting to check out this place for a minute. I went with a friend on a breezy Sunday evening. We sat outside. Our server explained to look at the menu from the QR code, which doubles as the ordering system. They also explained to not order everything all at once, unless that's how you want everything to come out at once. I forgot to take a picture of my drink. It was a capirinha and was very tasty. We also had guac and chips which was very good. We saved a little of the guac to put on our bowls. I had the sesame ribeye and it was a good choice. I tried my date's duck bowl which was also very flavorful. This was a solid choice and I look forward to coming back. read more

The food and service was amazing. I came today with my sisters and our waitress was incredibly sweet and made sure we got everything we ordered. The pork belly tacos and fish tacos are super good. The pork belly is a little sweet so if that's not your thing then I would sway towards the duck tacos. The fish tacos were surprisingly very spicy but it was still tasty. The overall ambience was great and I would totally come here again. read more

My boyfriend and I stopped here to grab a quick bite before going home. It was pretty late and we were able to be sat right away. The server quickly bought over water and informed us we could order and pay with the QR code. We started with guacamole and ceviche. The guacamole really surprised me, it was so fresh and seasoned well. The ceviche was the star of the night, the white fish and shrimp combined so well with the lime juice and red onions. I would go back just for that. We also each ordered the duck birria tacos. Those tacos were the best I've had in a long time. Everything from the ambiance, the quick delivery of the food, and the taste/quality of the food is why I'll be back again soon. Also, if parking in the garage, be sure to park in the designated spots and pay. The boot man had booted a lot of cars when we left. read more

One of my favorites in Atlanta! In this picture is the shrimp taco that I got, which is always soo good but extremely spicy. This time I also got the falafel taco for the first time which was okay but I wouldn't order it again. I typically get the oyster tacos too which are very tasty. Since the potions are so small, K usually get the quesadilla too as a snack before tacos. I also typically order their tres leches for dessert which I lovee. The only thing they haven't mastered are their drinks. They always give more juice than alcoholic beverage. I love the seating and the vibe of the restaurants too - they have a great outdoor space. I love Bartcao and I can't see myself not continuing to go here biweekly! read more
