Really a great spot. It overlooks the Pompano Beach Pier. Food is Delicious. The ceviche was divine. The guac was fresh. The tacos were tasty and they cater to dairy free and gluten free. Wait staff was nice. The bathrooms were amazing, clean and functional. Had little bamboo features . Parking sucks and is super expensive ($19 for 3 hours) My big complaints are the live music was SO loud we couldn't hear each other and left pretty quickly after they started playing. The other is that I wish they allowed you to mix and match tacos. Overall, darn good. read more

One word to describe Baresco, Perfect The ambiance is incredible, our server was absolutely amazing, and the food was mouthwatering! I got the Birria Tacos and would have gone back every single day to eat them again! Paired with a margarita and the day couldn't have gotten better. This place is a must stop and was the absolute best meal of our trip! read more

Baresco - Birria Tacos and a Margarita! - Mexican Near Me - Pompano Beach, Florida

This is a beautiful Mexican restaurant with wonderful service and excellent food. Definitely recommend the 3 layer dip!!

Loved this place. It's pretty new to Pompano Beach. We stopped in to have lunch and cannot complain. The food and service was pretty good. I'd definitely go back. There is street parking available since you're in Pompano right across from Lucky Fish. read more

Had an amazing time at Barsecco! The shrimp nachos were out of this world--perfectly crispy, flavorful, and loaded with toppings. The service was spectacular--friendly, fast, and super attentive. Great vibe all around. Can't wait to come back! read more

Tried this place Saturday evening with a few friends. Parking is a hassle, because it's right across from the beach in a busy area. I don't think the restaurant offers any valet parking, but there is a garage across the street to the northwest. The place looks really cool inside. The waiter was very nice and accommodating. We all got drinks, my margarita was good. I ordered the following taco: EL JEFE 18 Seasoned Ground Beef, Refried Beans, Queso, Lettuce, Tomatoes, Pico De Gallo, Sour Cream, Flour + Corn Tortilla. It came with two tacos and rice. I enjoyed it and am looking forward to the leftovers. My friends were all happy with their meals. So if you are looking for a nice restaurant to go to by the beach, this is a good option. We ate inside, but they have outside patio options also. read more

First time trying Baresco near the Pompano Beach Pier. We made a reservation just to make sure we could get in without a wait. Promptly greeted and seated by the hostess, and waitress was there in a flash. Ordered the guacamole appetizer and some beverages. Of course complimentary chips and salsa came as well. Awesome margarita! Ordered chicken quesadillas and tacos de carne asada. Both were very good. The restaurant looks very nice, and it's fairly quiet and enjoyable atmosphere. I will definitely come back here! read more

This was a welcome surprise! Never been here and I'm not sure why! It was so good! The guacamole was delicious perfectly balanced flavors and perfect ratio of chunk and smashed you can tell it's made in house. The queso was tasty too. We ordered the chicken enchilada that came with refried beans and rice. It was so good, flavors were authentic and everything had a home made taste It's located at the Pompano Pier entrance to the beach so you can make a day there then cross and have dinner. I highly recommend read more

Added another star to my previous review as we had some great service and food during my recent visit. I always sit at the bar and on this chilly night, I sat at the inside bar and was served probably the best margarita that I have had in awhile. Wish I had gotten the bartender's name as she was great, especially considering she was a one woman show, making the drinks, and taking the food orders. She did have help from the mgr when it came time for the food to be brought out so that helped her a bit, but she took it all in stride. As for that food? It came up super fast which was great cuz we were starving! Fajitas for my friend and an enchilada plate for me, both which were hot and tasty. My out of town friend was so happy with it, that he wants me to put it on the list for every time when he is in town. That says a lot given we pass a lot of Mexican places to get up here from Fort Lauderdale. read more

We came in for Sunday brunch for the first time and had a great experience overall. The hostess was very friendly and seated us right away. We chose to sit outside, the view was lovely, and the fans kept the area cool and comfortable. We were hoping to try the espresso martini flight, but unfortunately, their machine was down, which was a bit disappointing. Our server, Matt, was fantastic, attentive, friendly, and quick to take care of us. The food was delicious, with generous portions at a great price. Definitely a spot worth checking out for brunch! read more

Baresco had been recommended to me by a few friends, so we came tonight (a Wednesday) for the first time, looking forward to a nice evening. We found the food to be good, but not great. Our server was efficient and pleasant. The real disappointment came as we were heading out. Stopping In the guest bathroom on our way out, we noticed a flyer for "We Love Our Locals Wednesday Special." The special includes an appetizer dip and chips, 2 tacos, or enchiladas, or burritos, rice and beans. We were not told about this special by the hostess when we arrived nor by our waiter. There were no cards on our table advertising this special, nor anything on the menu advertising the special. We left having purchased almost the same food as listed on this "We Love Our Locals" special for considerably more money. When I mentioned my disappointment with the deception to the hostess, she just said that there weren't any table cards or anything else advertising this special, only the flyer in the bathroom. I am a local, but I am not feeling the love in this so-called "We Love Our Locals" promotion. I don't plan on returning. I've owned and run businesses before, and this is not how your treat your clientele. read more

Went on a Friday night with a 715 reservation. We were seated promptly. Our table was in the bar area which I didn't like because it was very loud, but it was fine. Our server was adequate. We had the street guacamole for an appetizer. It was really good. We just thought the portion was on the small side. Had to ask several times for the chips that come with the dinner. For entrées we had the chicken quesadilla, enchilada and taco salad. Good, but nothing to write home about. The restaurant is very pretty. Seems very lively. I would like to return in the daytime perhaps and just have some appetizers and drinks. read more

Attended a birthday lunch on a Saturday at 11am. The $36 pitcher of Sangria might be the worst we ever tasted. Fruit? A lemon and a lime. The glasses brought to the table to drink it were dirty. Had to bring to the bar and request clean glasses. Bartender said "no problem I'll bring them to your table" Never happened. Our server was less than attentive and seemed overwhelmed. A banquet fee for parties over 12 people was added to our bill for the "event coordinator". We were 11 people at a table eating lunch. No event took place and she certainly didn't do anything special to earn a fee. Besides the location this place is mid to low at best and big disappointment. Go down the street to Taco Station and get some good food with great service. read more

Hannah, Kaylee, Jay, Josh and Kelley have made this a place I now come to often. And only for the HH. You can't beat the price for a perfect sized spicy tasty yummy margarita and now they serve free chips and salsa !!! Perfect move and has me coming by often to have a couple of drinks after a day at work. Thank you for the improvements from a year ago !! Great job ! read more

Barseco has been on my list to try since I knew they were opening. The mediocre reviews and high end price tags are really what's kept me from trying it sooner. I had hoped that now it's been open for a while they might have gotten things sorted out but not quite. Food however was good. We all really enjoyed our tacos and the traditional margaritas also went over well. Service and timing issues were the biggest part of where it fell short. When we arrived inside the restaurant was nearly desolate and the patio had only a few tables seated. Our 3 classic margaritas took around 10 minutes to make, and an additional 5 to 10 minutes for one glass of horchata to come out. Once margaritas were delivered we ordered our food, and when that came out only 3 of us got our food and the other was left waiting for a few extra minutes. Waters were also never re-filled and had been left sitting empty. In between getting our drinks and waiting for our food, the hostess was dropping off baskets of chips and salsas to a few tables. We assumed it was as an apology for things being slow. By time we were getting our drinks and ordering food the patio was getting seated more, but they still only had one server taking care of everyone. Overall, service wasn't great (though that could have been a staffing issue), prices are pretty high, and the taco Tuesday deals aren't really deals (2$ off some margaritas and 5$ for small street tacos of steak, chicken or gringo, served al a carte). We all wound up ordering from the regular taco menu as the flavor options and sizes were more favorable. If service/staffing issues (and prices) can get sorted out, Barseco really would be a great spot. The patio is huge and inside the restaurant really is gorgeous but the price isn't worth what you're getting. Really hoping it was either an understaffed/off day, or that they find a way to turn things around! read more

We finally came to try this place out, we've often seen it when going to the beach. We sat outside which was great, it was a beautiful day out & lots of people by the beach. I ordered tacos (carne asada and al pastor) they were good & flavorful, size wise I think I could have eaten a 3rd taco but they give complimentary salsa and chips which fills you up. We also ordered a side of the street corn which was enough to share. Overall nice place to stop for a nice bite (lunch or brunch) service was good & attentive. read more

Parking: street side or paid parking garage next to BurgerFi. Atmosphere: loud, music in background is inaudible, very dimly lit at night. Service: wait to be seated, order at the table, you will be watered, food brought to you. Menu: descriptive, no photos. Complimentary Chips and Salsa. read more

I had a great time at Baresco! Went for the first time during Happy Hour and was super pleased! The atmosphere of this restaurant is super beachy and welcoming, we had no plans to come here but the vibes drew us in. Wanted to go with some shareables so we had the empanadas (10/10), brilla tostones, and my friend had the tacos. Tacos are large and come with a service of rice. Empanadas were to me, the star !!! So delish! Tostones were really good too! Wishing happy hour prices were a little bit more competitive compared to other places but it's really not bad. Had a great experience ! read more

Best Skinny Margarita I have had in a long time - looks and taste like they are using fresh lime juice bc the drink was a perfect "milky" green hue and nice and sour. Ambiance was very vibey and music wasn't too loud that we couldn't talk at our table. Yuca fries were a personal favorite. Chips and guacamole were on point. I'd go back. read more

Promptly sat but things went downhill from there. Servers were friendly but appeared to be overwhelmed and we felt overlooked. Food was lackluster, but would recommend the chips and dip! read more

Great food, ambiance, service, and happy hour!! Lilli is the BEST!!!! would come back just to see her!!!

Kudos to our waiter Jonathan he was friendly and helpful in navigating the menu. We were craving something different and decided to give Baresco. It's in the perfect location- near the beach! The inside of the restaurant is vibrant and open they played a mixture of reggae and Caribbean music while I visited. I had the kiss my peach drink how fun! It was perfect sweet and delicious. I ordered the Barbadoa steak flatbread. The red onions and that sauce took it to another level. It's the right size to share for two persons. The Birria taco I liked! The meat was tender and juicy. read more

Fantastic food, service and ambiance. Past this place driving around town and loved the open area bar and dining area. Checked out menu, Mexican sounded good. Yelp reviews said it was good..so we made reservations. Didn't need them. Sunday night Columbus Day weekend it's wasn't packed. Everyone was outside as it was gorgeous night. It's such a fun tropical vibe. Even the indoor bar area was beautiful. We dined in outdoor area. Only knock is if you have table near street, and there's a lot of drunk people around..kinda ruins your dinner conversation. That happened, but fantastic food is what it's about. Started with traditional guacamole & chips. Delicious & very fresh. Loved that they said up front if you run out of chips, we can bring you more. Didn't need them, but nice to know. Our meals came pretty quickly. 2 of us had fajitas. Large platter, all the fixings and plenty of tortillas to go with them. Sizzling hot, smelled fantastic. I had the chipotle shrimp skewers. My word, the lime potatoes and Mexican street corn sides were so delicious! Chipotle shrimp were huge! 3 on each skewer with grilled peppers and onions. Doesn't sound like a lot, but it's generous portions. Sauce was perfect mix of sweet & spicy. 2 ears of street corn. Had to choose which carb to focus on as there was no way I was finishing it all. I went street corn. But the potatoes were fantastic too! I was full and so satisfied. Went with Florida local beer, Buhda something? Delicious and ice cold tap beer. Ambiance was casual, tropical vibe was fun and made you feel like you were transported to an island. Service was attentive & pleasant. If we ever come back to Pompano Beach, we all agreed we would eat here again. Even with all the choices. Fantastic meals where everyone is happy are hard to come by. Bravo! Everything so well done! read more

We received a free margarita coupon from the pompano beach welcome center but when we went to redeem the free coupon we were told we needed to order an entre to redeem it. No where on the coupon does it say this and even server agreed but even after talking to the manager we were blown off. False advertising at its best ! read more

Leia & Jon were amazing tonight, highly recommend sitting up at the bar and spending your night with their service! Xoxo

Seared tuna salad was great! Our Bartender/server Emily was AWESOME! Good food, good vibes!

The mango wings are an absolute must if you come here. Also, the broccoli and the tostones. 10/10 all of them The vibes are great. Often you can hear a concert going on across the street at the pier which is cool. read more

Baresco is located in front of the entrance to the Pompano Beach Pier, so it's a great location. It is a welcomed addition to the other restaurants in the area, like Beach House. The food was what you'd expect from a Mexican restaurant. We had guacamole, queso, & chips, which was so tasty! We all had something different. We had the fish tacos(mahi mahi), shrimp on skewers, & salmon! All were enjoyed immensely! They give you a good portion of fish for the tacos. Their cocktails were good too, so much so that one of us, not me, ordered 2 margaritas! The service could have been better. We asked for silverware & were brought a plate full of spoons. Why did we even need to ask for actual silverware for a party of 7? The wait staff just seemed disorganized & the restaurant wasn't very busy seeing as though it was a weeknight. All in all, I will be back! read more

Once again, the music is just way too loud. It's a restaurant not a nightclub. We sat down. We're getting ready to order then the next song came on and it was blaring loud so we left. And we live in Pompano so we would go to the establishment frequently if we could enjoy ourselves. But there are many other options. read more

Came here with a ladies lunch group. First of all- the place is beautiful. The table was set up in a private area & that was very nice. I didn't expect it. Our server- C J was amazing. He was very patient with us & took most of the group pictures. I wanted to add that at the beginning, they gave us chips & salsa- several- for the table- very much appreciated. Everyone seemed to enjoy their food. Pictured is the taco salad- totally delicious!!! Just the right spiciness. There were some miscommunications but all was straightened out in the end. Thank You so much- Mayah. You did the right thing. Appreciate everything. read more

5/5/2023- Came with friends at 5:00pm for their Cinco celebrations. They have been open for 3 weeks. It was packed so we put our name with the hostess outside for outdoor seating. She said the wait would be an hour. She took my name and phone number. I received the text that my name had been added to the wait list. We went across the street to grab a drink. After an hour and a half, I went back to the restaurant and asked the hostess if our table was ready. She told us to go inside. The hostess inside told us our table was not ready. There was a hostess that was being rude to those hostesses and was talking about customers rudely. My friend told the hostess that we had been waiting over an hour and a half. She offered to sit us inside. Our table was right next to the bar which was cool. They had advertised mariachis but they were so far we couldn't hear them. The music inside was too loud. We were screaming at each other. The drinks, over $15 price tag. They had their basic margarita special for $7. I had that. My friends ordered different margaritas. For the price, they were very small and full of ice. Literally like 4 sips. We ordered the Guac with Crab $20. Chips were tasty and so was the crab but this is shareable for 2 people only. I thought it was too pricey and would have thought it was a bigger portion. I had the Birria Tacos $19. It was two tacos. They were super greasy. Basic flavor. No accompaniments. My friend had the salmon $30, it looked good, but again very pricey. One star for the decor, one star for our server (redhead, don't remember her name). I don't recommend. read more

Was walking along Pompano beach and saw this new restaurant so we decided to stop and have dinner. Located directly across from the pier, its quite big inside and they have a beautiful patio. I The wait for a patio table was 20 minutes, so we decided to sit inside. The tropical vibe makes you feel like you're on vacation...which 90% of the customers were. With that, this is a totally tourist place and they can get away with that at certain times of the year. Lets see how they do over the summer. Now for service... they were really trying. I do have an issue when the server comes to the table and asks "What are WE having to drink" I always want to respond with "are you joining us and paying?". That was her line for everything...What are WE eating tonight and Are WE having dessert? It's a new restaurant, so the kinks need to be worked out. Taco Salad was OK. Ground chicken, corn, black beans, avocado and tortilla strips on top of iceburg lettuce. They could have upped the lettuce to a romain or even added a little arugala to make it stand out. The avocado was hard to find...but again...it's a tourist place and they don't have to be outstanding. i believe they are owned by the same people who own the Beach House, so they understand the beach business and who the clientele is. If you want to eat by the beach, here you go. read more

Was excited to try the new edition to the pompano pier area, but was slightly disappointed. Yes, the decore is cute, modern and trendy, but the service was severely lacking. The female bartender was extremely rude to us and the other staff she was working with behind the bar. The guy next to me ordered 3 dishes that looked sloppy and not especially appetizing. The price point was also pretty ludicrous for a Mexican joint. Just not feeling it...yet. Maybe over time, they will improve the service and quality of the food. Till then, No Bueno. read more

The setting is lovely. All open air to see the beach and palm trees and all that Pompano has to offer. The staff was very nice. The two gals behind the bar were so sweet. They explained that we were there on their first official day (they'd had a soft opening for a couple days over the weekend). They only have one menu -- no lunch specials. And prices are a tad high for very small portions. This is in a tourist area so during season they can operate this way, but as all restauranteurs in south Florida know, you won't make it through June or September unless you have local support and local business. I hope they have the foresight to run some summer or resident deals. The house margarita (the least expensive at $13) was served in a small short glass. I'm thinking 6 ounces, maybe. It was good, but minuscule. We shared their tomato and avocado salad to start. It was mainly a plate of small mixed color tomatoes with a few small squares of avocado. It's a misnamed dish. Again, it was good, but lacked avocado. And there were other items in the mix that were not listed on the menu (like peppers and cucumbers). We then shared their sliders. There were 2 to the order. The combination of meats included chorizo which gave it a slight kick. The cute sliders were tasty and the fries were cooked well done as requested. I'm glad we came to check them out, now we know. read more

Food was just amazing, Ray was a really good service. The fajitas were very delicious. I love it coming back soon.

After a long day competing Beach Tennis; we decided to try this spot as we thought it was Barsecco like in Brickell; totally different food and ambient. We started off our night with a round of cocktails; my pick La Sonrisa (sooo good!) Followed with a Guacamole de la Calle 16 was delicious but wish portion was a little bigger. As my meal I had 2 appetizers... * Mango Tuna Tostada was delicious! Corn tostada were extra crunchy and their crema drizzle gave it a nice kick to it. * Calamari were perfectly seasoned with an extra squeeze of lemon was the extra touch needed to finalize. The crispiness of each bite was perfect! Highly recommended especially for their Happy Hour specials! Our waitress was the best! read more
