First time ordering from Bartaco. Decided to go in and place a takeout order of two rice bowls,…read morechips and guacamole. The service was very friendly. The hostess greeted me and asked if I'd ever been to the restaurant before. She directed me to the back counter where I was able to review the menu and place my order. The server at this register was also very nice. I liked the texture of the rice bowls and everything was cooked well. However, the portions for everything were smaller than I expected for the price. Bartaco offers items with mushrooms, falafel, and cauliflower. However I think it would be great if they could offer something with tofu as there is not a protein option for vegans. The chips and guacamole were decent but nothing special. Interesting that the chips come as large pieces instead of as individual chips. I'd maybe stop in again if I was nearby but I'm not sure I'm eager to return.

My half of chicken was ok. Just grilled and needed lots more seasoning and maybe a side should come with it. The trio was good. The drinks I had weren't strong enough. They had just introduced the toast software so there were plenty of glitches but they more than made up for all of the problems. Much appreciated!

Also some vegetarian options like cauliflower and roasted brussels. The carne asada, baja fish, and pork belly were the favorites of the table. Drinks were quite good - strong sangria and the passion fruit Oaxaca margarita was perfect. Lastly the churros with a scoop of vanilla ice tea was the perfect way to end our meal. Definitely worth it. Ask for extra condensed milk if that's something you like.

I ordered the tuna tartare with crispy rice and the Mexican shrimp cocktail. The shrimp cocktail was a bit smaller than I expected, and I think the tartare was served with brown rice, which wasn't my favorite, but the fish in both dishes was really fresh and flavorful. I also had a cocktail (can't remember the name, but it had tequila!) that I really enjoyed. Overall, I'd definitely come back to try their tacos since that's what they're known for. It seems like a great spot for casual drinks and bites with friends.

Arrived on Sunday at 1:45 and we sat at the bar based on what the spaced out hostess told us. Sat at the bar for 10 minutes. The bartenders were working hard so no big deal on waiting. When someone was finally able to take our order, we asked for the bottomless brunch. To which we were told, "sorry the cut off for bottomless brunch is 1:50 because it's 2 hour experience and the hostess should have let you know." Hostess didn't mention anything because she was lost in the internet. We tried to explain to the bartender we arrived before 1:50 and have been patiently waiting and that we need to leave at 3 so we won't be staying long. We again tried to explain we were here before time cut off and would not be long. Didn't matter. They wouldn't honor bottomless brunch. We politely said we prefer to eat elsewhere.

But hold on - they have a roster that will leave you full, even if you are a self-professed carnivore. I got a trio of different options and loved every one of them. The prices are reasonable (for this area) as well. I also like the space. It was bright and spacious, with almost an independent coffee shop vibe. If I needed to telework, I could see myself hanging here (but eating tacos instead of sipping lattes). Put away any misconceptions about 'vegan' and try it.

My girlfriend loved her burrito de asada. It was so full of flavor and tender asada. I loved my enchiladas de mole. The mole sauce was perfect. The rice and beans were great also. Finally the gorditos de asada was generational. Not only were they filled with great tasting asada and grilled veggies, but the plain Gordito literally brought me back to my abuelas gorditos she would make me growing up. Brought me to tears. I definitely plan to visit this location anytime I'm in DC.

There is metered street parking within a reasonable walking distance. The restaurant has a nice patio and a decent-sized dining area.

You just pick your protein and toppings. They have asada, chicken, asado, carnitas, and potatoes. Some toppings include shredded cheese, guacamole, salsa, corn, onions, and lettuce. You also have to choose between brown rice, Mexican rice, black beans, and pinto beans. I ordered a chorizo burrito. It took them about 5 minutes to prepare. The burrito was huge. I must say that it was very good. Very tasty and flavorful. It could have been a bit warmer, though. After I ate my burrito, I was full.
