El Barco Mexican Restaurant offers a varied dining experience, with opinions ranging from good to excellent. The chips and salsa were tasty, while the queso was good but not exceptional. The shredded chicken in the tacos was very enjoyable, and the pollo loco was a group favorite. The el trio was delicious, especially with a watermelon margarita, which has received high praise as one of the best margaritas. The steak tacos were also a hit. The restaurant is known for its large portions, often shareable for smaller appetites, and attentive service in a relaxed yet fun atmosphere. However, some customers have noted concerns about high prices and a lack of a lunch menu, leading to mixed feelings about the food quality versus the cost. Overall, El Barco continues to provide delicious food and enjoyable drinks, making it a popular choice for gatherings.
