bartaco

This place is a great spot for locals or anyone looking to grab a quick lunch with friends. The tacos are delicious, but they’re a bit small for the price. The drinks are fantastic and definitely worth the cost. The desserts are super fresh and made to order. There are two parking garages nearby, so choose your spot accordingly.

Bartaco was a great experience for us. Our server Soraya was fantastic. She explained the menu and how everything worked with ordering on the cards and putting them up if needed. She answered some questions and made sure we had a high chair and everything for our baby. She was just very pleasant in general. Everything we had was good. The churros came out first and Soraya apologized and said she could have more come out later after our other food. The kids tray was great, a taco, cheese quesadilla, corn on the cob, and pineapple for $8.50. Our daughter enjoyed it all. We did too. I ordered the carnitas, chile lime shrimp, ahi tuna, and roasted duck tacos. My favorite was the roasted duck, the carnitas had a great flavor as well and could tell it had marinated for some time to absorb all the flavors. The ahi tuna was a nice fresh feeling switch up with the lettuce wrap. The shrimp one was okay, not my favorite. My wife got the Baja fish, pork belly, and ribeye tacos she said she enjoyed them all. The sauces on the table were all solid didn’t love any of them but tried them all. Really cute place in a fun area. Would go back, food was good, but the great service would bring us back.

The best meal I have had in a while! First visit and it will not be our last. Margarita was delicious, chopped salad exceptional and the tacos were so so yummy! Our server, Haley, was attentive and so sweet! We had the pleasure of meeting GM Gibby on the way out and we were able to acknowledge the atmosphere he has helped cultivate (after we watched him walk the whole building and hug his entire staff- kitchen included!). Being In the service industry ourselves, my son and I were thoroughly impressed!

BarTaco was amazing!!! The drinks are hand crafted, all ingredients are freshly squeezed, structured to your liking. The tacos are tasty, especially the crispy pork belly!!! Try them out on Hyde Park Tampa.

The atmosphere and the place were very nice with great music! 🎶 The service was excellent, and our cocktails were delicious. 🍸 The tacos weren’t anything special, but the rice bowl we ordered was tasty. 🍚 We’ll definitely visit again sometime for another cocktail! 🍹

This was our first time visiting Bartaco, and we had a great experience. We ordered a variety of tacos including duck, ahi tuna, and chorizo. We also shared gazpacho and cucumber salad. Everything was fresh and tasty. They specialize in margaritas, but also serve beer and sangria. Our server Stan was friendly and attentive and added to the experience.

Floridians have to be the most spoiled people when it comes to fine dining and cuisine. Every place I have visited gas been top tier! We stopped in at Bartaco after 3 recommendations while walking around Hyde park. We arrived and was immediately seated. I had the guacamole, sangria, and duck birria. Their menu has stars beside popular items but I had items with no stars and thats a shame because what I tasted was phenomenal. The homemade sangria is 🔥 the duck birria was AMAZING!! My husband had a taco mix of some kind that looked really good and he was happy with but my food was so good I didnt even sample it. It is cute snd nice that they explain on the menu that their taco sizes are about 3 bites and serving is 4-5 tacos. To round out our meal we had churros (they were homemade with two delicious sauces) the food was so good we took a mile walk afterwards. I would definitely return!

The food was absolutely excellent. Since my last visit, several new items have been added to the menu, including the taco teaser and the tamales, and everything we tried was delicious. Unfortunately, the service did not match the quality of the food. My drink arrived without a straw, which I had to ask for. Shareable dishes were brought to the table without plates, and there were no napkins or silverware when items like the esquites and plantains were served. Guests should not have to ask for these basic necessities. Every table should already be set with napkins and silverware, or hosts should provide them when seating guests and handing out menus. At the end of the meal, the server asked if we wanted additional food or dessert, and we said no, which should signal that we were ready for the check. Instead, the server disappeared for 15–20 minutes, returned to clear the table, and then left again without bringing the check. After another 10–15 minutes, the server came back and asked if we wanted the check, which by that point was obvious. Considering there was a wait to be seated, the lack of urgency was frustrating. Turning tables more efficiently would benefit both the guests and the servers. The food alone would bring me back, but the service needs significant improvement.

This taco spot is definitely popping. It was pretty busy when I went, but the service was still great. The tacos are a bit on the pricier side, but the quality makes it worth it. I ordered 2 shrimp, 2 Baja fish, 2 oyster, and 2 ahi tuna tacos, plus a key lime pie--came out to about $50. The ahi tuna was hands-down my favorite, easily one of the tastiest tacos I've ever had. The shrimp, oyster, and Baja fish tacos each had their own distinct flavor profiles, which I really enjoyed. The key lime pie was just okay--served in a jar instead of a traditional slice, which isn't my preference. The guac and salsa were great, though. Overall, definitely a spot I'd recommend!

I went to Bartaco in the morning for an event and ordered French toast. It was pretty good overall, although I prefer traditional French toast without the extra crunch. I wish it came with a side but it was still filling. I've been to Bartaco before for lunch and dinner. Their tacos are really good but small, street tacos. Service is always great!

Love the huge variety of tacos here. I ordered the pork belly, roasted duck, Baja fish, and mushroom tacos, and they were all so different yet equally delicious. I honestly couldn't pick a favorite because each one had something special about it. The fish taco was surprisingly crispy, the duck taco had an incredible sauce and was very filling, the mushroom taco was unique and the pork belly was probably the most flavorful. One thing that could be improved a little was the service. We ordered eight tacos and had to remind our server about two that were missed, even though they were clearly written down. We also had to repeatedly ask for water refills despite sitting directly at the bar. That said, the restaurant was extremely crowded and busy, so I don't entirely blame the staff. It might help to have water bottles available for self-refills or larger water glasses, as I found myself feeling thirsty throughout the meal.

We REALLY love this contact bar! Great location, and it is super popular so be prepared to wait for a table. Spicy margs and allll the tacos are highly recommended! Also LOVE the guacamole!

Great place for tacos and margaritas. I went recently with some friends and we tried many tacos. All the ones i tried, shrimp, green chicken, chorizo, pork belly and carnitas were very good. But the pork belly and the green chicken were amazing. The margaritas were also very tasty. I liked that you can order your food with your phone, and if you have a question, you put a little card on the table and someone comes to help. The atmosphere is great, with good music and nice decoration. They don't take reservations, so if you go on a weekend or with a big group, make sure to get a table first. While you wait, you can walk around Hyde Park Village, which is nice. I would definitely go back. I really liked it!

I have been to this Bartaco plenty of times but after my visit last night, I'm unsure if I plan on making my way back anytime soon. The recipes must have changed and not for the best. Let's start with... my Mexican coke was served nearly warm. I personally had to ask for two glasses of ice because the coke melted it so quickly. I ordered the following: Salsa Verde + Chips = solid, would order again. Shrimp Tacos = what happened to the flavor? this used to be my go-to and now I can barely eat it. the sauce was so overpowering. whatever changes they made aside from making the shrimp portion smaller is not good. Duck Taco = always a great choice Mojo Pork Tacos = ehh. it was my first time ordering it and I wasn't impressed. Kale Salad = barely any dressed, and no cheese? such a shame, because they've always had on of my favorite salsas in the block.

Cool vibes. Relaxing and tranquil environment to enjoy a meal or snack with loved ones and or friends. I love the design and layout. Top Quality ingredients and great service. Definitely recommend

Really enjoyed our meal at Bartaco. Caesar was very friendly and funny and checked on us frequently. We went on a perfect day when there were many people seated on the patio and the music provided a lively atmosphere. The chips provided with our guac and salsa were fresh but slightly salty for me. My husband really enjoyed his chicken tortilla soup and my favorite was the mushroom taco. I loved the different hot sauce options. They are slowly moving back to full service rather than QR codes which I like more!

I don't think I have ever met anyone who doesn't love Bartaco... and it's is popular for a reason! Absolutely love this place. The vibes are energetic and poppin! Service is soooo quick and the staff is super friendly. I also love that you can pop in your order on the phone app (as well as pay on it) to make the experience speedy and seamless. The food and drinks are also SO good. I love their classic margarita + guava. Literally AMAZING. Also love their small plates (plantains are my favorite, but also love the corn and guac), and then all the tacos are great, but my favorite is the fish tacos. Wow I am getting hungry just typing about BT. Need to go back immediately!

Great time at Bar Taco this weekend. This is located in the central area of Hyde Park, so it does get very busy. They do have an inside and outside bar that is first come first serve. We found a seat at the outside bar on the railing, which by the way, was great people watching! To start off, their Margaritas are amazing. Everything is hand crafted fresh. They are even squeezing the limes to order. All the flavors are juices are made fresh too, you can tell the difference in the quality. Tacos are really good. About $3-5 per taco, about 3 should do! I did the shrimp, chicken, and the tuna poke (which came in a lettuce wrap). Guac was made fresh and delicious as well. Our bartender was friendly and attentive! Love Bar Taco!

It was okay. Super busy and it took a while for them to acknowledge us. The água fresca was so good but so small. I got the specialty tacos and they weren't tasty

Fun, laid back place to grab a meal. This place was pretty busy on a Tuesday evening. Wait time was about 30 minutes so we walked around Hyde Park until they texted. We started with the ceviche, corn (not on the cob) and dips and guac. The guac was really good so I would definitely get it again. I also loved the corn, it was cheesy. I liked the ceviche too, so it was all a win. For tacos, we tried the tuna (which came on lettuce), ribeye and crispy shrimp. My coworkers tried the chorizo which they said was not good. I liked the ribeye and I was meh on the crispy shrimp and tuna. I'd try different ones next time. The drinks are where it is at. They say their juice is hand squeezed. I got the green margarita which has tequila, combier liqueru d'orange, agave syrup, lime juice and house made green juice. It was delicious and I felt healthy while drinking it. My second drink was a watermelon mint margarita. It was pretty sweet so I'm glad I didn't start with it, but still very delicious. I would drink both again. Overall I always enjoy going here. I think it's a great choice if you're in Hyde Park.

Visited this Bartaco location for lunch and it was the perfect spot! We didn't have a reservation but we were seated pretty quickly after a short 10 min wait (party of 2). Bartaco has you order on the paper they give you and the food comes out as each dish is ready, not all together. We tried multiple different tacos, my favorite being the duck! The plantains were also delicious, especially with that dip!! Our waiter was very nice and friendly too. This location was also very well decorated and even has skylight windows, bringing in a lot of natural lighting. I'd come back!

Floridians have to be the most spoiled people when it comes to fine dining and cuisine. Every place I have visited has been top tier! We stopped in at Bartaco after 3 recommendations while walking around Hyde park. We arrived and was immediately seated. I had the guacamole, sangria, and duck birria.

First time at bartaco and it lived up to the hype! We checked in online, but you still need to let the host know when you arrive. It was pretty busy, so we grabbed seats at the bar (first come, first served). The bartender was super quick to help us out. Ordering is done by checking off items on a paper menu--simple and fun. We started with the small guac and chips (more chips than guac), but the flavor was amazing! A little kick from the jalapeño, but just the right amount. Definitely getting the larger size next time. We had two vegetarian tacos and two fish tacos--the fish was small but packed with flavor, especially with the salsa. For drinks, we tried the watermelon and spicy margaritas. Both were made fresh right in front of us, and the watermelon one even came with a real fruit chunk--so refreshing! The vibe was great, music not too loud, and prices were very reasonable. Can't wait to go back!

Bartaco in South Tampa - a 12/10 experience! Had the most delicious in-between-work lunch with a friend after grinding at Hyde House, and wow... this spot did NOT disappoint. We started with the sweet plantains and I'm not exaggerating when I say they were mouth. watering. Like... dreamy. Then came the tuna poke and guac + chips--fresh, flavorful, and perfectly done. I sipped on the ginger fresca (so light, so refreshing!) and honestly wanted to bottle it up and take it home. For tacos, we went in. Tried a bunch, but the duck and pork belly ones were NEXT LEVEL. Melt-in-your-mouth vibes. Also--huge shoutout to Cesar, our waiter! He was awesome, funny, and made the whole experience even better. Love when the service matches the food! Vibes were chill, food came out fast, and everything felt super intentional and flavorful. Bartaco, you've officially made my lunch breaks a little more dangerous... I'll be back!

First time for me at a Bartaco & it's exactly what I need: veg options that are low in calories and minimally processed I had the med cauliflower bowl- the harissa carrots and hummus are very very good plus the Side salad of marinated cucumbers: perfect on a hot day- they leave the water decanter in the table The patio here is cute but so uncomfortable that you should sit anywhere else (the table is a very low coffee table that hits your shins in a cruel way and forces you to lean forward over your food for risk of spilling) Nice staff but you order from a QR code and it randomly comes out so you won't connect with any specific server - doesn't help with tips I'm sure but it's fine for me

Bartaco crushed. Drinks, food, and service were all on point. Carrie took good care of us. Absolutely loved the ahi lettuce tacos and battered fish tacos. I also ordered the roasted half chicken, which I would recommend if you're extra hungry. Don't get me started on the churros or tres leches. Will be back!

I really can't ever say enough Greta things about this place. I wish I had more pictures of the food this time. But the star of she show is there, the pork belly taco. It's their best one. Their salsas (try the green one) and guac are great. The plantains with that avocado dip is to die for. Your bill will add up quickly since the tacos are so small but not anything more than you would spend anywhere else in downtown Tampa. I take everyone that visits me where and everyone loves this order by taco concept and unique flavors

I have to give BarTaco five stars. Beautiful location in Hyde Park, parking can be a bit tricky but it would be worth the headache lol. Once you get to the restaurant, they provide outdoor and inside seating. I love sitting outside to people watch. Also, the ambiance is nicely decorated. Great service is always a thing for me and I love the quality service the staff provides. My favorite is duck taco, cauliflower taco plantains and the street corn in a bowl! Enjoy!

I love @bartacolife for so many reasons!! Delicious food, fun vibes, consistently great service, and a space that's always clean and welcoming. One of my favorite things? Each month they launch a secret taco that supports a great cause. It's part of their #givingtaco initiative, and it makes every bite feel even better. Big news: bartaco just partnered with @drinkopenwater to serve the crispest tasting water in the most sustainable way. Think ultra-purified, electrolyte-packed goodness in fully recyclable, BPA-free aluminum cans. (It's giving clean conscience & clean taste.) And if cocktails are your thing, trust me, you'll want to order one. They use the freshest ingredients and hand-squeeze juice right at the bar. Basically... if you're not already obsessed, it's only a matter of time with 6 locations in FL!

Bar taco has great food at great prices! The service was top tier. Our waiter was very nice and helpful. The ambience was loud but we visited during busy lunch crowd. I will be back to try more menu items.

Very popular spot, very busy mid afternoon on a Saturday, music definitely was vibe a d the food was generous portions. I had tacos, esquites amd cocktails.

Bartaco was a great experience for us. Our server Soraya was fantastic. She explained the menu and how everything worked with ordering on the cards and putting them up if needed. She answered some questions and made sure we had a high chair and everything for our baby. She was just very pleasant in general. Everything we had was good. The churros came out first and Soraya apologized and said she could have more come out later after our other food. The kids tray was great, a taco, cheese quesadilla, corn on the cob, and pineapple for $8.50. Our daughter enjoyed it all. We did too. I ordered the carnitas, chile lime shrimp, ahi tuna, and roasted duck tacos. My favorite was the roasted duck, the carnitas had a great flavor as well and could tell it had marinated for some time to absorb all the flavors. The ahi tuna was a nice fresh feeling switch up with the lettuce wrap. The shrimp one was okay, not my favorite. My wife got the Baja fish, pork belly, and ribeye tacos she said she enjoyed them all. The sauces on the table were all solid didn't love any of them but tried them all. Really cute place in a fun area. Would go back, food was good, but the great service would bring us back.

I visited Bartaco on a girls day with a group of 6. We called ahead for a table because the location that we go to is so busy. We were seated within about 15 minutes on a busy Saturday afternoon. Most of us used the mobile order option to order our food and drinks. I got the Paloma which was okay. I have gotten it here in the past and I did not love it as much. I opted to not order food because I think the tacos are so ridiculously small. Others did and I gave those tacos the same side eye I always do. The service was good and the atmosphere is lively. I don't really pick this place to dine on my own but end up there with groups.

If you are in the area, you definitely need to stop here. The food is so good and the guacamole is off the chart amazing. The service is good, but these people are always busy so folks need to be patient and when we were there they were. Everybody was having such a good time. This place did not disappoint from the moment you walked in the door to the moment you leave. We'll definitely be back. Hopefully they open one in Punta Gorda.

We had an awesome dinner at the bartaco bar! All cocktails are made with fresh ingredients and delicious. The tacos are small (can fit in the palm of your hand) but you can sample a few different ones! Highly recommend the al pastor pork tacos which were delicious. We had great service at the bar, a great place to sit if you have a small party and can grab a seat. Otherwise you may be waiting an hour for a table so get there early!

WELL...I think this place takes the cake (or should I say key lime pie) as to "Why don't I come here more often???" vibes. I've been to BarTaco before, and while great, I'm not often in the mood for tacos, so I went ahead and got something NOT tacos, and was rewarded rather handsomely with finding yet a new favorite eatery in Hyde Park. First off, the restaurant is open air and spacey, not to mention dog friendly, and with them being so welcoming with my little Muffin, I'll be sure to come back for more. And now with the food: For this meal, I went with the Duck Birria, the street corn, their key lime pie (in a mason jar) and their honey dew acqua fresca (because it nuclear hot day--'kay??). If you've been following my reviews, you would know that I LOVE birria. I LOVE duck. Duck birria??? Wow. This did not disappoint. Crispy outershell, tender duck, and thick n spicy dipping sauce (forgot the name) was perfection. I was glad it wasn't very big because it was hot and somehow I just can't eat as much when I'm hot. But man, that was good. Next I had the street corn. It had the right balance of spice and cream, (which I made even spicier by dumping some of the birria sauce on it) and really hit the spot, which is good because I really love corn. I wasn't sure if I was going to get drinks or desserts, because I didn't know how full I would be after the birria and corn--but I got dessert and I'm so glad I did! Their key lime pie (in a mason jar) was perfect, the sweet whipped cream making a great contrast to the key lime custard and graham cracker. Again, not an overwhelming size, so I was able to down the whole thing without feeling overly full. The aqua fresca was perfectly refreshing with just the right amount of sweetness to refresh and cool me off. Did I mention that the staff was TOTALLY on point? Everyone was great here, and I'm glad they were cool with me needing to walk away from my table a few times to walk Muffin. My server checked on me several times and was more than happy to add on my dessert to my order. On a side note... I just noticed that you can see nutrition info on the menu, which is nice if you're trying to eat reasonably, so I'll definitely be back even if not to indulge. Lots of healthy items on the menu. Taco may be on the name, but they're more than just tacos! (But I think when I'm in the mood, I'll get that, too).

The tacos were full of flavor and everything came out pretty quickly for a dinner rush-hour on a Thursday evening. I loved the margaritas especially the watermelon margarita. The chips and guac were very good and I like how they came out with full tortillas. The tortillas were very well seasoned and they had a nice crunch with no greasey feel. I definitely want to come back and try the other tacos. The ambience is very lively and energetic.

Everything I ordered was delicious. The flavors were amazing. I would go back again. The workers were wonderful. The service was fast. I didn't get a table because they were really busy on a Saturday night but I got a bar table and it was perfect.

This is becoming one of my favorite places to eat while shopping and hanging out in Hyde Park. It's generally very busy ... we were seated in about 20-25 min ( they'll Text you when your table is ready). You can also enjoy drinks at the bar while waiting. Place has a really good vibe... I like the atmosphere. We had several people check on us while we were there. They have a decent selection of tacos. I had a ribeye, chicken and fish. They were all good but the ribeye was the best. We ordered a large guac and chips for the table ... wasn't that large in my opinion. Others in the party had bowls that they liked. They were out of Tito's vodka so I ordered Pearl. It's a fun place with good food, good vibe and good service and reasonable prices

This is a great spot to sit outside, eat yummy tacos and enjoy yourself. Download the app so you can check in and save time in line. Service didn't give me warm and fuzzies but was prompt.

The best margaritas around! They freshly squeeze all juices making it super refreshing. We opted to sit at the bar (first come first serve) which is always a fun environment. You are able to join the waitlist online, but be sure to check-in once you arrive to the establishment to secure your spot. The ordering system is perfect for those who aren't very hungry & for those who came to eat! We ordered the small guac, which is a perfect snack. Mushroom & falafel tacos for vegetarian options. As well as the fish taco. All the tortillas held up well which is very important haha! They also have a half chicken and kids menu for those not interested in tacos. Would highly recommend for cocktails and/or food!

Poor service, not thrilled w menu being sold out of an item early in the day. And chopped salad with added chicken was missing ingredients... it was basically chopped lettuce and the added pulled tasteless chicken (3 small pulled pieces) with nothing else but salad dressing w some shredded carrots (and when notified server, he said he was going to address it and waited 15 minutes and nothing) overall, underwhelming... Not a fan.. not coming back!

Foo at the bar was awesome! He schooled me- this is a gluten allergy haven for all. Nobody wants quesadillas and certain deserts anyway. The crispy oyster is GF and they only use tamari so if you are a celiac, you may want to come hither! If you haven't visited, it's a cool hangout-super sunshine during the day, good music at night. Everyone here is so sweet too, the service and the patrons (: Omg I almost forgot to mention the food!!!!! All of the tacos are fantastic- IF the brisket taco is home- order that!!!!! The crispy outer, the Baja fish, the pork belly, the mushroom, I mean- I haven't met a taco I don't love here. The street corn is so good too.

This place is such a vibe. Great food and absolutely amazing if you have littles! They started us off with coloring books and crayons right away. The kids menu was priced perfectly and their kids meal came with a taco, quesadilla, fruit (we had pineapple), and corn wheels (corn on the cob with cotija cheese!). My two toddlers loved every bite! I had the Korean BBQ Bowl and my husband tried 5 of their tacos. Delish!

Fantastic tacos! The fried oyster was by far my favorite. The pork belly and Baja shrimp are tied for runner up. It's a lively spot with great music, though the trade-off is that it's not somewhere one should go for a quiet conversation. Our server was attentive and accommodating and the "card" system they have for flagging down servers is really helpful.

Bartaco is located in the posh yuppy Hyde Park district of South Tampa next to lululemon, Meat Market Steakhouse, & Buddy brew coffee. The ambiance of bartaco is kinda beachy and reminds me of Hollister with white wood walls out of 2 x 4s, light wood colored tables out of 2 x 4s from Home Depot, a U shaped bar large with liquor behind glass overhead compartments and retro alt rock playing including Franz Ferdinand. We went on a Monday and it was packed. There was no booth seating available and we had to sit at the bar. The bar stools were also made from wood 2 x 4s from Home Depot, and very uncomfortable and need cushions, need a back to the chairs, and some better finish. Unfortunately Service was very very slow. It took 10 minutes to get a menu, another 10 minutes to get a drink, another 10 minutes to get chips and guac, and another 50 minutes to get simple tacos and a rice bowl. Management needs to add cushions to the seating as it is very uncomfortable and looks like it was hand made w a saw as a diy project. The bar area only had 1 person working and 3 people cutting limes but more people should have been serving customers as service was too slow. The guac + verde salsa + roja small salsa 3 dip trio with chips for $14 was highway robbery. Most other restaurants offer 3 dips and chips for $6 and most taco spots offer unlimited complimentary chips and salsa but this place does not. For $14 we did not get a refill on any salsa or chips. The chips were not broken down and round tortilla shells and unsalted. Asked the server to salt the chips and it took her another 10 minutes to bring chips. The guac is a bit on the bland side, the verde green salsa is not bad, and the Roja red salsa is crazy spicy and too smoky for my taste. The bland unseasoned chips ruined this and the price is not a good value at all. 2/10 The glazed pork belly taco was crispy sweet and savory 10/10 The sesame ribeye had a nice flavor 9/10 The tuna tatako 8/10 The chile-lime shrimp was a bit of a let down on flavoring but I do love shrimp regardless 7/10 The roasted duck was a bit gamey but I'm never a fan of duck 6/10 The seared chorizo was a bit too oily 6/10 The spiced chicken verde bowl came with uncooked vegetables but should have had sautéed veggies, the chicken was on the bland side, and the bowl was way too small and not filling enough for 1 person if they're hungry. 4/10 The tacos at bartaco are way too small for the price and there is no bundle deal for 3 or 5 or 6 tacos so you have to spend over $20 to get full from tacos while at most other taco places you can just spend $6-$10. The seating at bartaco needs padding as it is very very uncomfortable. Bartaco kitchen needs to churn out tacos a little faster than 50-60 minutes. The only reason this place is busy I suspect is because of all the people living right next to there that don't want to drive 8-10 minutes down the street for green lemons superior tacos. If you're in the south tampa area, I don't recommend Bartaco but I do recommend green lemons superior tacos, taco dirty, or Miguelitos for tacos.

I love bartaco, and when visiting Tampa for my bachelorette, it was a must that we go. We were expecting different food being in Florida, but all the bartaco menu options seemed to be the same, as the one we have back home in New York. We were not disappointed though, all of the food was just as good and made just the way we like it. Our waitress knew that it was my bachelorette party and she gave me a special drink. She made us feel so welcome and me so excited to be celebrating my bachelorette party with my friends. Out of all the restaurants we went to, she was one of only two who did us something special for my bachelorette party. So happy we were able to try this Bartaco in Tampa!!!

The food was good and service was even better! I had no issues until there was a female manager who made a scene at a table nearby. Unfortunately it was unprofessional and I felt the whole situation could've been handled better without others in the restaurant knowing what's going on. I don't believe our server deserved to be "put on spot" because of the attentiveness and care we received! The lack of care for others is what turned me off about my experience.. other than that I enjoyed it!

Recently went to bar taco and it was a good time, management and staff were so sweet and the food was really good per usual. I love the ambiance and everything is priced perfectly. Great spot

In my opinion this place is not up to par with the rest of Hyde park. Food is ok not great, service is lacking in attentiveness and they always have some new confusing system for ordering. This might be picky but I think if you serve wine you need to have wine glasses... had I known it would come in a thick short stemless glass I would have ordered something else. For the price I'd love to see this place step it up. That said the vibes here are good. I usually enjoy sitting at the bar and the elote is delicious!

Awesome Plave, the service the atmosphere really neat location and the food was amazing I have been back 5 times nothing I've had has not made me not want it again

I have probably walked past bar taco 100 times in Hyde park and that is a true shame because I popped in tonight for tacos and tequila and they surpassed my expectations by far! I sat at the bar because it was pretty busy, for a Wednesday. The Baja fish and pork belly are the stars on the menu for sure! The spicy cucumber salad was also really yummy. I also enjoyed the regular margarita. It was just right. I heard I should've gotten it spicy to take it up a notch. All in all I'd give it a solid 8.5/10

Delicious and such a cute atmosphere. Service was great and the quality of the food is up to standard. The guac was so fresh

NEVER AGAIN. Not only was the wait 1 hour to be seated, then it took another hour for the food to arrive and we paid $4-$5 per taco and got like a teaspoon of filling in each. The fish in my fish taco literally looked like a small shrimp and half of that was batter. I could not believe that they put about a TEASPOON of slaw in them! The steak taco had a ton of kimchi but a tiny bit of shaved steak.

This is my first time to bartaco in a long time. It has a great atmosphere on the inside and outside. The outside porch is covered and is a nice place to grab food with your dog. Our server greeted us right away, they use a flag system here so they only stop by if you put a card up and need help. They did check on us to see if we liked our food. We opted for the QR/online ordering system, it was really confusing and impersonal. I prefer someone taking my order. I ordered a margarita with salt, half the brim was salted which was odd. The margarita was ok, I've had better. For the drink cost of $13.50, it wasn't worth it in my opinion. I ordered two tacos, I got their pork taco and mushroom taco. I really enjoyed the pork taco, it had a lot of flavor. The mushroom taco was ok. Bartaco is a good spot if you want a nice, casual place to grab food. If you're looking for authentic tacos with better prices there are better places. @living.with.reg

The location, the food, the vibes, what's there not to love? Stopped by with some friends after the sunday market for some chats and tacos, and it did not disappoint. I tried the glazed pork belly, roasted duck and sesame ribeye tacos, so yummy and full of flavor. The tacos are a bit small, but pack a punch. If you want to feel a bit more stuffed, opt for one of the rice bowls! I have tried the sesame ribeye bowl which was delicious. Next I want to try the korean bbq ribeye. Our server was very kind and quick! Love the vibes at this place always!

That's definitely the best tacos in Tampa Bay Area, unique tacos, unique drinks, unique place i've been there multiple times and we will go there again for sure
