    The bottomless tacos and margarita flight on Tuesdays is a great deal. Each week I’ve invited a group of friends to enjoy this experience with me.

    The food was good, different, not typical Mexican food in the sense. Enjoyed the food and drinks. It did get louder later in the night.

    Despite having a reservation, we waited to be seated for a solid ten minutes, the host seemed uncertain of where to put us, even with a reservation. Once we were seated, due to what we were told was a server miscommunication, we sat at our table for half an hour before we were brought water, let alone before our table was even acknowledged by any of the waiters. We spoke to the host stand twice before someone finally came to take our order. The runners were amazing, and started serving tacos (Taco Tuesday) a good 20 minutes before a waiter came to our table. The food is great here. The drinks wonderful. I have had some excellent dining experiences here in the past, But unfortunately, service was severely lacking this Tuesday.

    There was a good variety of tacos to choose from on the All You Can Eat Taco Tuesday menu, but the food lacked flavor...not bad but not delicious. The servers were very friendly and the ambience was nice.

    The brunch buffet is a great deal with the bottomless drinks and food. There is a large and very nice patio for outdoor seating. Overall a great experience!

    Visited Barcocina to celebrate my son’s 26th birthday! A time was had. We enjoyed the Taco Tuesday event for $35. You get unlimited tacos served “churrasco” style (think Fogo de Chao) and a margarita flight. The place is crazy busy on Tuesdays! By the time we left, the restaurant was filled with people salsa dancing and having a good time! I can’t wait to go back in the summer. The restaurant is very spacious as well.

    The pork and pineapple, jerk chicken and cauliflower bang bang were the best tacos in my opinion. The all you can eat deal is pretty good, if you just order tacos. The margaritas weren't that great, but for $10 it was also a good deal. I will say there was an issue with consistency. Some tacos came out hot while others were cold and not appetizing.
