I recently had the pleasure of visiting bartaco for the first time while attending a birthday dinner, and I have to say — it was absolutely amazing from start to finish!
From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was vibrant and welcoming. The vibes were perfect — upbeat yet relaxed, with a stylish and cozy setting that made it feel like a mini getaway.
The service was top-tier across the board. The food runners, waitress, and manager were all incredibly...

We come to Bar Taco what feels like once a week. The food is always excellent and all the staff are incredibly friendly and clearly trained in customer service.

Zack is the manager at Bar Taco Birkdale, I am blown away at his attention to detail and concierge style service he gives to every customer that comes through.

Highly highly recommend!!

Cool place, great atmosphere and solid service. I had the chicken rice bowl it was really good (smaller portion). Lots of outdoor seating which is a plus. All cocktails made with fresh items. Give it a try.
