Description

At this lively Hilldale taco spot, inventive Latin-inspired plates and standout small bites — guacamole, corn fritters, plantains, glazed pork belly, roasted duck and tacos like tuna and Baja fish — make it a local favorite. Vibrant, family-friendly atmosphere and a full bar complement QR-code ordering and speedy service, though crowds and staffing can slow seating and wait times. Guests praise flavors and staff but note uneven service, trouble with online/to-go orders, and poor handling of severe allergies. Ideal for casual dinners and shoppers seeking bold, shareable plates.

Had delicious tacos after a long day, and a mug tea. Maybe not the sort of drink the bar is known for, but it was cold outside! The duck and pork belly ones were my favorites.

It takes 40 mins wait to be seated and another half hour wait for the food. They have vacant tables but not enough guys for all the customers. But thank god, tacos are as good as the ones I had in NY.

The glazed pork belly and roast duck tacos are the best! Highly recommend their mojito, very well balanced and freshly made

You have to get the corn fritters. I've been to a lot of bartaco, and they have the best corn fritters.
