Clearly this is a popular venue but I just don’t get it. Food was lower quality than Chipotle at 3 times the cost. Atmosphere? What atmosphere. Staff is nice but I was pretty disappointed and won’t be making a second visit. It’s just an expensive utterly forgettable chain.

Although the food is not authentic spanish, it was still very good! The servers are also very kind & accommodating. We moved our table from outdoor as it was too hot & they were very happy to make sure we were comfortable! Thank you :)

Just got a few drinks before dinner, nothing too crazy. You definitely should check it out.

I wasn’t in the best mood when I placed a carryout order on a busy Saturday night. I submitted it at 6:33pm, expecting a 15-minute wait, but the confirmation email said it wouldn’t be ready until 7:08. Already a bit frustrated, I showed up around 6:45, fully expecting a long wait—and honestly, I was prepared to be annoyed about it.
But what happened next completely changed my perspective.
I was directed to the pickup line, and the staff member there (wish I had gotten her name!) politely said the order had just come through and she'd check on it. I expected a typical “it’ll be another 20-30 minutes,” but instead, she returned to say the kitchen was working on it. Less than five minutes later, my order was ready—hot, accurate, and clearly made with care.
The restaurant was packed, and yet the team moved with efficiency, kindness, and flexibility that you just don’t see often—especially in Northern Virginia. I was genuinely amazed. Bartaco earned a loyal customer. Next time, I’ll be more patient and trust the process instead of stressing over timing. What they pulled off that night was exceptional.

One of my favorite places to go. I love it the best guacamole ever..

Fun and fresh vibe, nice staff, great food. The tacos are small street taco style, and I recommend getting at least 3 per person. The cucumber salad is refreshing and addicting. Plaintains are a nice sweet appetizer as well!

Service was amazing! We love that we can bring our dog on the outdoor patio area. The food and drinks were also delicious too! Drinks are on the pricier side, but I love that they are made fresh!

Fun atmosphere but there is hardly any meat in the tacos. Weird combinations. Good margaritas and guacamole though.

Good food, service and ambiance

Food was good enough (plantains) but 2 stars for being a qr code restaurant.

Everything was good, until it wasn't. I've been running back and forth to the bathroom with the most painful bubble gut I've ever had in my life. My friend I went with is in the same predicament and we got completely different food items. I have never had such an immediately bad reaction to food in my life until now. I got the Baja taco, crispy shrimp, chili lime shrimp, and spicy chicken tacos.
