El Barco Reviews
Amazing food. Amazing Margaritas made by the beautiful Bartender Dalila! ❤ Music was top notch. Atmosphere 10/10. A must go in VH :)
We were there for dinner visiting family and had Jon as our bartender! He was friendly, attentive, and really knows how to make a great drink. He made me the best margarita I’ve ever had—perfectly balanced and absolutely delicious! 🍹Great service, great personality, and an overall wonderful experience. If you’re looking for a bartender who knows what he’s doing and makes you feel taken care of, definitely ask for Jonathan! Highly recommend! 🙌
We went twice for lunch and had great food both times. The flautas and churros were really good. Cool spot to watch the boats come in or catch a game
