    Experience the Taco Passport on my birthday tour! The restaurant accommodated my party, the tacos were delicious, and the bachata lessons with the Spanish music going all night was the cherry on top 🥳 Thank you Barcocina

    I went to Barcocina for the first time for taco Tuesday! The staff was very accommodating, the outside patio was really warm! I love the concept of bottomless tacos with the margarita flight but my only feedback is more of the options listed on the menu. We really wanted to try the bang bang shrimp tacos but they never came out. Other than that we had a nice variety of tacos and it was good to try all the margaritas with an option to add a 4th for $5 and we loved the salsa class going on!

    We were there for the $35 bottomless tacos, flight of 3 mini margaritas, chips, guacamole and 2 salsas. $35 pp...not bad if you ask me. Tacos were ok nothing special. Margaritas were pretty good. Ambiance was laid back. Server was great. How it works...servers come around with trays of tacos every 10 - 15 min or so. Different types of tacos are served. Definitely interesting and different.

    Overall, a fun experience and a good value! However, Taco Tuesday didn't quite live up to expectations. OpenTable stated tacos are served until 10, but the restaurant stopped making them around 9. They advertise unlimited tacos with the chance to try all varieties, but we served a total of 8 tacos and only got to try 6 of the 12 available.

    Food was VERY cold. Its a non-authentic take on tacos. Drinks were a little watered down too.

    It was a busy night, due to a private party in the back room, as well as Margarita Day specials. We had a nice server.

    Poor service due to other event going on that night with staff attending to other tables. Waited 30-40 min just for drinks.

    The customer service was bad the waitress and the bartender had attitudes (not very pleasant), the food was mediocre, the drinks were absolutely terrible and the music was extremely loud. I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone. Terrible

    I heard about the bottomless tacos they offered on Tuesdays and made a reservation asap, but the earliest one available was 9:30pm. No prob. My friends and I show up on time, and were told we need to pay a $10 per person cover. Nothing about that was mentioned on the website. Fine. We paid it. We get to our seats and order, turns out the bottomless taco deal ended an hour ago (even though the sign outside was still promoting it.) The food and drinks were very good but pricey. Our waitress was very kind and also seemed puzzled why we were charged the cover fee. It was disappointing we didn’t get to have what we went there for.
