There were a ton of take out customers while my friend and I were there. Given that this was the first time we had eaten Salvadorean food it was clear to me to order pupusas and they did not disappoint. 5/5. Warm, fresh tasting, not soggy, great texture. The main reason why I took the review down to a 4 is because it was somewhat hard to find the server after our food was delivered. Glasses of water weren't refilled.

Good for small groups but a bit cramped inside & outside. Very accommodating & helpful staff. Great service. Yummy drinks. You won't leave broke or hungry unless you choose to. The food & drinks may not look fancy, but their flavors are satisfying and hit the spot. The meats were seasoned well and you don't need a lot piled onto these small street tacos. They warn you that you'll probably need to order at least two or three tacos for a meal. Food comes out pretty fast, so you can keep on ordering if you have room for more! Fish, pork, chicken, shrimp, beef... they're all good. You can't go wrong. Lots of other options if tacos aren't your thing. Again, Don't expect art on a plate...more like grub on a tray...but also don't expect to go broke after indulging in a good meal. This was an absolutely unexpected delightful experience after another disappointing experience at the expensive peruvian joint across the street. Let's just say, bartaco exceeded expectations after a last-minute change of venue and came through for us with flying colors. Way to go, bartaco Reston! You've won my business with excellence in service (our server & their team was soooooo cool!), yummy eats & drinks, and wahooo...you make pups feel at home, too! Couldn't have asked for a better first experience. I'm drooling just thinking about their tacos ...

For many of my friends, when we visit this area, Crooked Run is now a destination because of the tacos (as well as the beer). I do find them delicious and nicely spiced. For me, their price is slightly below average among places I visit, so I find them to be a good deal, especially since they come in slightly larger tortillas - and double layered at that. Their lamb tacos - now 2 styles - are incredibly popular among my group, but I've never had a bad taco there. But the tacos are very messy. Perhaps they have a little too much - even double layered, some of the tacos fall apart as I eat them. Also their method of delivery is a little inconsistent. Two of us ordered two tacos each at the same time. One got his on a tray, I got mine in a little cardboard holder. Maybe they have a limited number of trays? No matter, it's not how they're presented, it's how they taste. And for that, I say "Si Senor!"

Talk about a fiesta at Taco Bamba in Herndon on Cinco de Mayo! Despite the hustle and bustle, their service was faster than a taco disappearing at a fiesta! We dove into the special with 2 margaritas and The Jeffery - like an eggroll on steroids! And those margaritas? ¡Ay caramba! Just the right amount of kick to spice up the party! The barbacoa tacos were packed with flavor - they don't mess around when it comes to fillings! Order them dirty, you won't be sorry!You'll be a taco rebel with a cause! All in all, Taco Bamba was firing on all cylinders, serving up laughs and deliciousness on a whirlwind of a day! read more

This Taco Bambo location in Herndon serves two of the best veggie tacos: the Guru with sweet potatoes and the Spicy Shroom with mushrooms. The combination of flavors and textures is simply irresistible. The service is quick, making it convenient for both dine-in and pickup orders. If you're looking for delicious vegetarian taco options, this place is definitely worth a try. read more

Taco Bamba remains our go-to spot for a quick and satisfying bite. This time, we tried the fish taco and the Korean fried chicken taco. Both tacos were delicious, but the Korean taco had an extra kick, making it spicier than the fish taco. The crafted cocktail was the perfect complement to the meal. For a quick and tasty meal, Taco Bamba never disappoints. read more
