Me and my finance went for the first time and it was definitely a vibe we got there at 11:45 seater by 11:45 pm got our drinks they were really good good service I would say 8/10 would come back
Wife and I reserved a seat in the basement bar to follow our anniversary dinner at another restaurant. We were immediately seated and greeted. We browsed the menu and tried a few drinks (Elote Moda, Papel Picado and Poder De La Flor) while enjoying the music and vibe. Watching the bartender work was a treat because he's actually making your drinks instead of just mixing them. Each drink we had was wonderful and well worth the price, in my opinion. They also have a lot of nice touches like artwork in the ice and really cozy seating. I'd definitely recommend coming here and I do believe we'll return with friends.
HUGE fan of Barcoa!!! The team there are some of the most hospitable in Phoenix. My wife and I live in LA now and I tell all of my friends and family visiting Phoenix to check out Barcoa. Provecho being there regularly is a game changer too. Their food is awesome!
We enjoyed a tequila tasting at Barcoa and it was fantastic. Not only was it tailored to our preferences, but we learned more at this tequila tasting than any other we've been to before. We tried tequila out of clay and tried Sotol. It was a unique experience. We also thoroughly appreciated Barcoa's loyalty to family owned tequila producers. We also tried some of the tequila craft cocktails. The bartenders have it down. They were great! The atmosphere is cozy but energetic. We thoroughly enjoyed our time at Barcoa. We will be back and will recommend to others!

Great food and drinks! Overall the staff was great! We had a minor issue with one unhappy employee but overall everyone else treated us great and his co worker apologized on his behalf so we appreciated the attentiveness on his behalf.
I booked on a night that there was a private event going on plus a couple other things outside. My friend and I sat downstairs at the first table, were ignored for 8min and it smelled like sewage. Understandably it was very busy with the private events and probably didn't need us weighing the service down. We ended up going to another bar so we don't know about food/price/drinks/ect.

Best tacos in town. Mama couldn't even make them like this. They're located outside of barcoa in dtphx and are a staple to downtown nightlife.
Spend a good 2.5 hours and server only came to us twice. He also kept forgetting our drink orders which cause us to go directly to the bar to get ourselves and put on the tabs. He did not care that we kept mention the forgotten drinks. His lack of customer service did not make a great impression on the establishment and their reputations for good drinks.

Amazing experience with Grant! He was a true Tequilla aficionado. We learned a lot that night! Would recommend this for a small or large party. The bar had a great vibe! I can't wait to go back.

Absolutely Fantastic Food Truck!Tacos are amazing, and the bean n cheese burritos are divine! Rodrigo and Elsa have such a passion for the food and it really showed.
A true agaveria, Barcoa pays homage to the spirit of Mexico with innovative cocktails and an impressive selection of agave spirits. Whether you're new to the world of agave or have been a fan for years, this is the place where you can come to get your fix! The decor, music, and libations had me thinking that, for a split second, I was back in Oaxaca or Mexico City. I will most definitely be back!

The best agave spirit offerings I have ever seen. On top of that, the staff is highly knowledgeable and has great recommendations. Their flight offerings are out if this world and bring a taste of what agave spirits are to a true connoisseur.

Such a bizarre experience, definitely sit at the bar if you can. The entire vibe of this place is “we've tried the best tequila and mezcal so we can tell you about it” — our server was literally offended that I asked her for a recommendation. I said my boyfriend and I wanted to do a mezcal tasting, so we'd order a flight. She said they didn't do that but a solid 15% of their menu is flights. We ordered a flight, she gave a shot. It was so bizarre it was wild. This place was closed for two weeks this month to explore new alcohols and where they came from...how do your servers not know anything?

Hands down the best Agave bar in Arizona. If you love Agave visit this place. The team there are extremely knowledgeable on the products served. The cocktail specialist are top notch. Grant Gardner education info is amazing. He made our tasting experience like no other. We had 15 people and they all agreed the experience is 5 stars PLUS.
