The tacos are out! The Birria Tacos are some of the most delicious tacos I have ever had in my life. The ambience is relaxed but fun and the service is exceptional.

Food is absolutely fantastic. We have never had a bad meal. There is a lot of different dishes that you won't find anywhere else. Guacamole is to die for.

Went for a quick lunch and walked away unsatisfied. Immediately thrown off by the lack of a lunch menu & the high prices. The Staff were friendly & attentive making the ordering & delivery of food quick. Due to high prices I shared an appetizer w/a friend & found the quantity & quality quite disappointing. To sum up my experience I would say the place & staff were great, food was mediocre and prices were far too high. So I don't plan on revisiting nor do I recommend visiting.

I was really happy with the choice to try out El Barco on a whim today. The meats in particular were very flavorful but everything was great. The chips and salsa were fresh and all flavor with no bite. The fish tacos came with a sauce that seemed to be house made - couldn't identify what it was and loved that it was unique. Very good price for the size and quality. Total bill was $40 for free chips and salsa, a crunchy beef taco, shrimp tacos and a chicken chimichanga - both of which came with rice and beans, and 2 sodas. Our server was very friendly and likable.

Grabbed some bite here with my girls and the experience was French kiss. The fluffy tio made the experience lively and took great care of us. We didn’t have to wait long for the food, amazing food as well. The plates were large adding a plus to the experience.
