bartaco

Came for dinner and got some drinks and some tacos tried the duck taco had never tried duck before. Thought it was pretty tasty. Try a couple of tacos and the drinks were delicious. Not too strong. The portions are good. The person is OK. The service was good bathrooms are clean planning parking 10 out of 10. Recommend checking out this location.

For what it is, we were very impressed. My wife and I each got four tacos, which was more than enough to fill us up. At around $4 each, the price point was more than fair. I had the duck, sesame ribeye, pork belly, and mojo pork carnitas, and every single one was very good. My wife had the mojo pork carnitas, fish, and sesame ribeye. In her words, they were all very good, though she thought the fish taco was a bit light on the meat. The others, however, were generous and flavorful. Our son got the kids' chicken tacos and felt they were also a great value for the price. The staff was extremely friendly and attentive. The restaurant was clean, and honestly, for the price, it cannot be beat. I cannot remember the last time we had food this good for so little. Bartaco will definitely be a pit stop the next time we are in the area.

This spot is a hidden gem! The prices are super affordable, the tacos are delicious, and the portion sizes are just right. The interior design is beautiful, it’s cozy and stylish, perfect even for a date. Definitely coming back!

What unique experience! Digital ordering was easy and fast. Service was outstanding. And the food was amazing. Highly recommend the pork belly crispy rice bowl, though we tried one of every taco and there were no bad choices there either. Great place.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely Amazing! I love this place so much! The hospitality from every associate is truly outstanding. The food? Absolutely incredible. The whole vibe of the restaurant is warm, welcoming, and just right. I would come back a million times if I could. Highly recommend trying the ribeye and pork belly tacos!

Food was wonderful as always! On this front bar taco never fails me. However I will say that sometimes the spice levels can get really hot, be careful what you order! As for service, my friends and I were told we could not make a reservation but when we arrived we had to be put on a waitlist. The system would work better and be more efficient if they allowed for reservations. We had to wait over an hour to actually be sat down.

Tacos were really good. I really like how small they are so you can try multiple ones without being too full. Service was quick and friendly. Music was super loud though.

If you come here, it’s for the atmosphere on a nice day. The food is “Ok” and nothing to write home about. You place your order through a QR code. Which is novel. The one down side is, the food to price ratio. For two people you can spend $50 - $60 bucks and still leave hungry

So the GM messaged me to give them another try ... so we did. They honored the offer to save me a table and comp our meal. It was another family gathering, this time with 11 ppl. We ordered assorted tacos, plantains, guac and beverages. Service was great ... food was great. Shout out to AJ who took good care of us while we were there. The playlist jamming from the speakers was great. We sat by the front, which was nice till folks opened the doors to the outside right in front of us ... it was cold! LOL Thankful for going above and beyond to make sure our experience was improved ... impressive since most places don't bother.

Drinks and desserts are delicious, particularly their tres leches. The tacos are nothing special, I would just go to another establishment if you're looking for a filling meal. I would say their tacos are overpriced for what they give you and they're not really memorable. Still good though! The ambiance is quite lovely and it's perfect for a cute girls night or a casual date. I would go again for the atmosphere and customer service which were top tier.

We had been to Bartaco out in Boulder, CO and were so excited to see one opening in King of Prussia. The wait can be long sometimes, so it's worth checking in ahead if you are planning to walk or shop. It is not a quiet place -- it's a lively bar setting, so plan accordingly. You order à la carte (either through the app or a sheet with a little pencil) and can try a bunch of different options. Highly recommend the fish and pork belly tacos and the roasted chicken. Drinks are also great, and they have delicious non-alcoholic options. Desserts always look amazing when I see them pass, but I'm always too stuffed leaving this place to try one.

Enjoyable! The tacos are superb, good menu, friendly service, and a nice tequila selection.food comes out fast! The house tequila, a brand I am not familiar with but quite tasty - a Joven. I guess if there's any downside it's that the drinks are a little pricey and the pours could be a little heavier, but that's kind of nitpicking. If you're a fan of tacos street style I have to say this place does fit the bill..

Love the freshness and quality of the food and drinks, but very disappointed with the direction they are heading in with self-service (ordering from the phone). Eating out is 50% food and 50% atmosphere and service. I was really disappointed this time as someone who only eats at here when visiting KOP. Will probably have to try somewhere new next time Also side note: It would be helpful to know what and who I am tipping for. Food runners/bussers and bartenders should be tipped out from server's earning in my opinion.

We loved this place when we lived in the DC area and when we saw there is one at King of Prussia, we really wanted to check it out. First of all, we were greeted by such a friendly hostess, who was so nice to my kids and offered each of them a coloring book and crayons - such a nice touch! Everyone else we encountered that worked here was equally as nice! The restaurant is sort of half indoor half outdoor, and the sunshine and breeze were flowing through the place, great location. The tacos were great, I really liked the oyster and chorizo tacos. The pork belly was good but smothered in a bit too much sweet sauce, so it was hard to eat the whole thing. The guacamole was fresh and was a great start to the meal. I also really liked the margarita, it paired very well with the tacos! Definitely worth the drive if you are in the area!

Had some really fun cocktails here on a Sunday evening during Blink. Such a fun little spot in the heart of OTR. The bartenders were super friendly!

Really fun casual yet lively spot at the KOP mall! It was easy to book a last minute reservation here, even on a busy day at the mall. This was my first time at a bartaco and I loved the concept of being able to just order a bunch of tacos a la carte to try! The online ordering is a little confusing at first but it's nice that you get to place orders as many times as you want and the food is brought out as its ready. What makes this place special is that many of their taco options are nontraditional, such as the sweet and spicy shrimp tacos and pork belly tacos. I ordered the pork belly taco, tuna tatako, and chicken tacos, which were all great. Would definitely come again to try more tacos!

Met up with a friend from out of town and we had a great time catching up over dinner outdoors. It was a little overcast but the summer ambience outside was nice with ample covering in case of a little rain. Sangrias were good as were the tacos. Baja fish and pork belly are still my favorites. Th duck was a little too salty for my palette. Music was also a little too loud outside so it was a little hard on us to hear each other. Might've been better if we were seated a little farther away from the speakers. Service was fast and staff were friendly. Heads up, the doors to the mall close earlier than the times shown. If you're parked in the orange parking garage, you may need to walk across the walkway outside, across the parking lot and street, and up a few flights of stairs to reach it. The path back is not very convenient or accessible for wheelchair users or cane users, so be careful of the closing time if you're there in the evening.

I absolutely loved the nautical beach theme in the decor at this place. The shiplap walls, white chairs, navy blue pillows, and beach-themed photography made me feel right at home. While waiting for a table (about 30-40 minutes), we sat by the bar and enjoyed some appetizers. We had the guacamole and chips, which were amazing--the kitchen uses fresh ingredients every day, and the lime kick to the guacamole was delightful. I also loved having cute cut limes to squeeze into our tacos. The lobster esquite--a delightful corn concoction topped with bits of lobster--was another standout. Once seated, AJ, our waiter, impressed us with his knowledge of the business's history. He shared that the outside wood was reclaimed from a pier in Connecticut, where the owner is from. This touched me deeply, especially since I was affected by Hurricane Sandy and remember the devastation to the piers in the Rockaways. Knowing that pieces from Connecticut were reclaimed made my heart swell. The tacos were superb! Bite-sized and delicious, they recommend 3-5 per person. I had the lobster, crispy shrimp, and Baja fish tacos. My partner Zack had the same, plus the pork belly and sesame rib eye tacos. Every taco was fantastic! We also tried the chili lime shrimp bowl but were too stuffed to finish it. Overall, a wonderful dining experience with great food and a heartfelt connection to the decor. Highly recommended!

This place has so much heart - Ryan the GM is the best and it is so refreshing to know people care and it restores our faith in humanity. Thank you Ryan!

I felt like I was at the beach it was enjoying tacos and mocktails. You order with your phone and service was friendly and fast! The dip was so good and the chips were delicious! Everything was so great! This was my first time here but I can't wait to go again!

Bartaco is one of the few spots that is open past the mall stores closing. They have plenty of seating! The coolest concept EVER! You order from your phone and open up a tab for your food and drinks! I love this concept, everyone is responsible for their own bill. People are less inclined to waste food as they order as they want. The menu itself has so much to offer! There are vegetarian and pescatarian options. The tacos are fresh, filling and creative. There are bowls as well. I tried the churros and ice cream for dessert which were huge. AMAZING! AMAZING! AMAZING!

Our tacos & apps ranged from very good to great! 9 items & a drink and everyone was something I would order again. Awesome evening! Highlights included sesame ribeye & pork belly. Tuna tatako, Baja fish, Lobster, chile lime shrimp were also very good. Would definitely go again

Stopped here during some holiday shopping, and wow! So glad I did! Absolutely delicious tacos hidden away at the mall. So this place is located in the connector, but it does have a semi-private entrance from the parking lot. Ambiance is pretty great; comfortable, energetic, and not too loud. Service is minimal because they utilize an interesting busser-type process. Basically, go to their website, order your food, and pay, all from your phone. Order whatever you want, it goes to the kitchen, they bus it out. Pay and leave whenever you want. Heck, even if you don't pay, they take care of it automatically with 18% fixed tip. Prices were quite reasonable, and honestly, a bit dangerous when combined with the online ordering process because it's so easy and reasonably priced. On top of that, the food is so good! The duck quesadilla and pork belly taco were some of the best Mexican / tex-mex items I've ever had. Authentic Mexican? Nope. But a brilliant take on that style of food. I'm sorry I hadn't tried this place earlier, but I'll definitely be going back! Of all the options at the mall, including all the overpriced and under-delivering steakhouses, this place might be the best!

Took a little while for someone to come seat us but everyone was very friendly. Nice aesthetics and great ambiance with jammin music Tacos had good flavor, especially the pork belly! Just a bit on the expensive side per taco, but that's everywhere now. They got our drink orders confused because they both had grapefruit in them and gave an extra on the house, which was very kind.

This review is not based on food Seated, could not get menu and after 20 mnutes of being seated we could get no service, we then left

It's a cute establishment. Indoor and outdoor seating is offered. I only had the ceviche, two different types of taco, and tea, so while this is lengthy, my experience is limited to that. I love ceviche, but I probably won't have it from anywhere for a while after trying there's. I enjoy cod, but not the cod included in that. The cod had an odd taste, almost like a processed taste or maybe it was a preservative. I am not sure what was going on, so I avoided it. I didn't send it back because I do not send food back. I'm sure the dish has its days when it's a hit. This day was not it. The employee who directed me to my seat described the taco size being comparable to number signs they have at each table. I ordered based on that, but that description was inaccurate. The tacos were tiny and tasty, but nothing unique that would cause me to choose Bartaco for $4-6 each over other establishments that may offer a larger, same-tasting taco for the same or less. One item I loved was the tea! The tea was good, and the carafe was $4 or so. I was able to share that, and we had a few pours each. Way better than $3+ for fountain drinks. I'd go back to explore the bar part, but I'm done with the taco. Oh, yeah, and they don't have chips. Like, if you order salsa, you get round tortillas and you'll create your own chips with them. Maybe that's part of its aesthetic or concept. I could just be ignorant about their mission and what they do. If that's the case, ignore me.

The food was delicious. However, on an $11.60 bill, they added a tip of over $100 after I had already paid and signed the credit card slip.

Normally, I wouldn't drive all the way to KOP for just dinner, but this place makes it work. At least if you're going to a mall the parking is easy. We were seated right away. The service was very atentative. We were checked on many times. I do like the perks of ordering off your phone. Makes it easier to split the bill when you go places with friends. Especially since I was in a group of 5. Plus I could order more food whenever I wanted without waving someone down. I honestly wish all restaurants operated like this. The menu is diverse. I was able to find many options as a vegetarian. And not only that, they were some of the best tacos I've had. Most places just say "Veggie Taco" and give you some lettuce. Here everything was flavorful and at an affordable price too. I couldn't believe how fast everything came out. I also recommend the margaritas. We did get dessert, but unfortunately the churros were nothing special to me. Next time I am in town, this is a great place to meet up with friends!

This place is always busy which is a good thing for them. Ate at the bar and all the barmaids were pleasant and attentive. Everything is prepared fresh (squeezed lemon, limes grapefruit...) so it took awhile to get a drink. Food was good but not anything out of the ordinary. Being so crowded it can be a little noisy but tolerable.

I had the pork belly, rib eye and duck taco. They were all delicious and alI. I particularly enjoyed the duck and the pork belly. I couldn't justify the price and portion though. The tacos are $4 and they are SMALL. They are miniature in size. If you are hungry, this place is not the place to go unless you want to spend money i had 5 tacos, and it cost about $23 all. The service was quick and good. They have a QR code where you can order from your phone, and the food comes out pretty quick. The place is a little upscale and the place is always busy. We had a 1 hour wait before we got seated. Overall, with the long wait, the cost of taco and the miniature in size that I give this place a 3 star. P.S. and they don't have a burrito lol

Super Speedy service Nice portion sizes Easy to order more food Vegan selections Chic decor Amazing flavor/food combinations Absolutely recommend for adventurous eaters!

Tried bartaco for dinner with a friend. Overall the food was great and the restaurant was clean and modern. The good. When you sit down, you scan the code on the table to start ordering through an app. It was easy and convenient (though a little leggy at times). I ordered 4 tacos, a mojito and Roja salsa and chips. Everything is a la carte which is great if you only want specific things (but can be pricey if you're hungry). The tacos were VERY good and the hot sauce/salsa were a nice addition (especially the habenero!!). The monitor was also very good. The bad. The chips and Roja salsa were not my favorite. The salsa was over peppered and too thick. There was so much black pepper and other spices it wasn't chunky, but thick. It was more of a black pepper mango chutney. The ambiance in general was nice but the music (mostly hiphop) was a bit on the loud side. It helps down out the packed restaurant but took away from the table conversation a bit. Lastly, the prices were a bit too high for the portions. The quality of everything was certainly on point but I'd say prices are about 15% what they should be (even for philly). Not crazy high if you don't get a cocktail. Overall we had a good meal and enjoyed the food and drink. 4.2 stars!!

For about $13 you get the smallest kale salad ever made coupled with three of the smallest tacos (mine lettuce-wrapped for a slight up-charge) I've ever seen in a noisy, high music level environment that you order-navigate via your cell phone where you have to give Bartaco a bunch of personal data to be served with a smile (service was friendly). That said, the kale salad and the tacos were amazingly delicious whether fish, pork, or chicken. Kudos to the chef(s). I found the noise level genuinely annoying so I took off a star and then another star for what amounted to an appetizer-in-a-box passed off as lunch. Maybe this is direct evidence of inflation...my dollars, all $13 of them, are essentially worthless. So, if you're not hungry, fairly deaf, but want delicious morsels, this is surely your place.

The lobster taco was dry. I love lobster so this one was disappointing. But the rest were reallllllly good. I also ordered the Baja fish, pork belly was freaking delicious, probably my favorite taco. Shrimp was good also. I really liked the sauce it came with. Guac and chips were fresh. I'd definitely come back again if I'm in the area. The service was impeccable.

The food was great! The only complaint I had was that there is no real face to face interactions. You get seated by the hostess, but then you don't have a waiter or waitress. You scan a QR code to access the menu, place your food online through the website you scan, and also pay that way too. If you're good with navigating websites and paying with your card online, then this place wouldn't be a problem. I wouldn't recommend to older folks though. Other than that, the restaurant was beautifully decorated and had nice music playing.

Absolutely amazing food, stellar service, and adorable ambiance! I LOVE this place and love taking my kids here. First of all, what restaurant gives whole coloring books for kids...? So awesome! And the food selections for the kids is great too. I enjoy a place that I can customize my choices and that's easy to do here as you write down your order on a card. I always get their vegan/vegetarian options for tacos and they always hit the mark. Their drinks are amazing too! Every time I go I make sure to buy another bottle of the jalapeño hot sauce because it makes everything even better. Can't wait to go back!

Overall: came here for a quick lunch. Cute atmosphere. This is a speciality tacos ($3-4 each) place, don't be expecting regular tacos. would come back for these ingredients. They also offer rice bowls which looked good ($10)! Ordered: 3/5 Shredded chicken: juicy and flavorful 3/5 shrimp: regular shrimp tacos 4/5 rib eye: favorite one! Juicy and full of rib eye flavor 2/5 oysters: not juicy nor flavorful.. would not get again Service: friendly and fast, order online with a QR code on the table

We came on a busy Saturday with a party that was of 8 people. That doesn't bode well for being sat quickly. I called at 5:30 to get on the waitlist, and maybe I'm naive, but when we checked in at 6pm, that's when our wait began? And we were told 45 minutes. 1.5 hours later, we were seated at a table. I found that a bit frustrating. As for the food, it was worth the wait, and that came out quickly. The pistachio cauliflower taco-- YES!!! Pork belly-- ALL DAY! Baja fish-- DON'T MIND IF I DO! The chicken and the shrimp-- we could have passed on. The street corn was also a hit. Not too spicy and plenty of flavor. I know restaurants are changing their way. The way they have it set up is your scan a QR code, order and pay on your phone and they bring everything as it's ready but I missed talking to a human who was in charge of our table. Maybe I'm old school but it didn't feel the same. Based only on food, it's 5 stars. The whole experience put together, it's got to be 4 stars.

We went here on a Saturday night and the wait was 1.5 hours. We walked around the mall to pass the time. Once seated, we were informed how it works here. There's a QR code that you scan, you make the order by your phone and it's served tapas style and brought out as it's ready. You put a card up if you need some help. I ordered a shrimp taco, fish taco and chicken taco. I also ordered plantains. Everything was delicious. A really long time to wait. I'd come back to another time when it's less crowded.

The food is always fresh at bar taco and their sauces are top notch. I had the best tres leches dessert in the Philadelphia area at bar taco!

I heard so many good things about bartaco from my friends, I decided to give it a try one day. Ever since then, I've been coming here whenever we can't decide on a place for lunch. Every taco we have gotten here is excellent and unique, some people were shocked just how good the vegetarian tacos are. I've tried both cauliflower and mushrooms and they both are phenomenal. My personal favorite is the duck. The service is amazing as well, whenever you need a server, you just need to put the dragonfly logo up on the clip, the server just magically appears :-). I was amazed with how efficient this little system works. We have always came here in the fall and winter so we never gotten a chance to eat at their outdoor patio area. I love the vibe and would definitely come back in the summer. I love bartaco. Highly recommended!

My first time at Bartaco was just ok. Service was average, tacos were average. My most recent visit changed my mind. I had the duck birria which was very tasty, the guac + salsa Verde + dip trio, fresh tortillas, plaintains, churros and the grapefruit ginger al fresco. Everything was delicious and of course, the vibes are cute. I'm definitely curious to see if this will be a consistent experience!

Amazing launch great atmosphere and the manager Angela was exceptional! Turned a rainy Saturday into a spectacular Saturday afternoon!

Walked in for weeknight dinner at the bar and it was quick and delicious. Loved oyster tacos, pork belly tacos, and loved that tuna taco. Chips are still okay and the drinks are very fresh tasting.

Great food. Great service. Great vibe I love coming here! I love their ordering system (both paper or via app) and the food! This is a perfect place to be after walking around the mall and you wanna grab something quick to eat! The food comes out pretty fast and their margarita is very tasty! I love their pork belly tacos but some pieces can have too much fat than the meat but it's still good. I recommend getting the chips and guac! They offer this special salsa and it's very yummy!

I love Bartaco! The food is so good. The variety is great and I love mixing and matching new foods so it is always fun to try new kinds of tacos. The desserts are great - churros, key lime pie. I do feel like they often forget one part of my order but the servers are all friendly and fix it right away. Food always comes out fast. This location has indoor and outdoor seating and is attaches to the mall.

We absolutely LOVE Bartaco!!! The vibe is so fun and chill and inviting. The staff is super hospitable and helpful. I love the decor and the food is delicious! We love the trio of dips, the tacos, the bowls, the salads and ESPECIALLY the freshly squeezed cocktails. Yum. I've eaten at the KOP Bartaco probably a dozen times, a great review is long overdue. My whole family loves this place, but it's extra special for me because the entire menu at this restaurant is gluten free! I have celiac, so I have to eat gluten free. Not many restaurants have good options, and almost none have as robust and delicious a menu as Bartaco! You'll love the experience, go to Bartaco!

The service was fast, servers were kind and helpful, and the food was delicious! I recommend the Korean bbq ribeye rice bowl!

Another fantastic meal at Bartaco! Guacamole & chips is our appetizer of choice. Lobster salad & lobster cerviche are summertime favorites. We also had fish & duck tacos along with ribeye rice bowl. Gelato for Dessert. Coupe of margaritas & beer to wash it down. Service and ambiance are wonderful. Meal is lite and atmosphere is lively.

Absolutely stellar experience! If I could give ten stars, I would. We arrived with four small children who were understandably restless after a nine-hour drive. I called ahead to check if they could accommodate us at 6:15 on a busy Friday evening, and the hostess assured me it was no problem. Upon arrival, we were promptly seated with waters and kids' drinks already waiting for us at the table, despite the place being packed with no empty tables or bar seats in sight. The hostess immediately asked if we wanted two guacamoles with chips and two kids' guacs. The food was fabulous, delivered quickly, and the service was efficient. I highly, highly recommend this place!

Service: 11/10 Food: 11/10 Ambiance: 10/10 Everything about bar taco is top tier. Perfect for a date night. The March cocktails did not miss! Duck birria quesadilla is something else - whew!

Kind of pricey but good 8 tacos and 3 beers 80 bucks but I guess should be expected for the real estate in the mall

Friendly service great drinks, and great food. I was looking for a place to sit at the bar and grab a quick meal and this place did not disappoint. The chips and salsa the tacos the margaritas were all fantastic.

Food and service is always excellent here. Eclectic menu but you have to try all of the selections. I don't know who the head chef is as this is a restaurant chain but they are a master at flavor combinations

Pretty chill place. I found the prices a bit too high and the music too loud for my taste. We were having issues with the digital menus because they require a phone number, so they offered to give us paper menus. After 4 tacos I was still not full, but we ended up spending about $20 per person already. They were all unique in flavor and yummy. Just lacking. The jalapeño sauce was my favorite. The staff were very kind and polite. I always wanted to try this place because my friend had recommended it, but I'm not sure if I'll come back.

I just live the tacos at this establishment. The pork belly taco is my favorite because it is just so flavorful. I ordered the tacos and requested flour tortillas which is appreciated because I don't like the corn tacos. I also requested cheese to be sprinkled on top. This establishment allows you to order your whole meal through your cellular device and also allows you to add additional comments to your order. You can also pay your bill through your cellular device which is always great.

Just don't get the 5 star reviews for overpriced mediocre tacos with a morse of food in a way too loud music environment. Spent $40 with tax and tip on lunch for 6 tiny tacos, and a scoop of icecream. Pork belly had way too much sauce and meat was tough, baja fish had no flavor on its own (had to add hot sauce), oyster was the tastiest by far, tuna with lettuce wrap was nice but almost no flavor, shrimp was too spicey and mint chip gelato tasted like Breyers. The best part by far was the excellent service and the calories posted on the menu. Way too expensive for what it is especially for lunch. For this price, go and have a fancy surf and turf lunch at one of the nicer restaurants around the mall in a peaceful environment where you don't have the scream your conversation. Life is just too stressful now for this type of dining experience.
