They had a nice selection of drinks and food to choose from. Our server was very nice and she always came back to check on us. The atmosphere was cool. Nice restaurant with a nice bar area. The food was very good. Different but very tasty. The drinks were also very good.

I ate here midday on a Thursday during happy hour. The salsa with the chips was great! The queso I…read moreordered wasn't the best, I prefer the white queso that's creamy and rich. This was a bland yellow queso that was like pre packaged cheese dip.. I also ordered the flank steak it came with rice and beans, corn & tortillas. I ordered the steak medium and it came out rare. I didn't eat the steak and told my server yet he still left it on my check and didn't comp anything else (like a cheaper item on the bill such as a drink or the queso) or discount anything. As a server myself I do have high expectations but my guy was a big letdown. The other server working was more attentive and personable! They also did not have any high chairs. It was a beautiful restaurant but I will not be back.

I got the fajita steak platter. It comes with onions, peppers, and a roasted chili pepper, the tortillas she serves you are hot and in a little container it also comes with some rice, guac, lettuce, and limes, and then they have a chips and salsa bar, which has a green, medium, and a hot salsa along with some cilantro, limes, and pico de gallo. You have to come and eat here. The food is absolutely amazing the inside it's giving a feeling of wild West meets modern Day Mexican. I had a margarita and oh my God it's so strong and my dad had a beer. They cook on my steak fajitas is absolutely perfect. There is a great mix of fatty pieces versus medium pieces and a pair extremely well with the hot sauce from the salsa bar.

It definitely has a more upscale feel than most Mexican restaurants I've been to. It's a bit pricey, but honestly, the complimentary salsa bar with perfectly crispy tortilla chips is worth it. I don't know what they put in that green sauce, but I kept going back for more. And yes, another refill of chips, please! I had the chicken fajitas as my main entrée, and that chicken... easily some of the best I've ever had. It was incredibly moist, loaded with flavor, and perfectly cooked. I also got to try the quail from the JJ, and that was definitely the star of the show. So flavorful. I could eat about 10 or more of the quails. Great atmosphere, delicious food, and plenty of reasons to return. Highly recommend!

As a lychee martini lover, they're harder to find the further away from Miami I get so I was so happy to see it here on the menu!! Several of the girls in our group decided we would split the sushi boat and it was a great decision. We all picked rolls we wanted and they came out so pretty and tasted really fresh. Some other girls ordered their own dishes and enjoyed them as well. One girl in our group ordered the birria ramen and she loved it. She said it was SPICY and the best ramen she's ever had. As a non- spicy person, I had to take her word for how good it was. Would definitely recommend this place if you're in the area! We were dressed up but it seems pretty casual.

Fortunately we were early enough to get a place to sit before the line formed out the door. The biggest complaint was the service. They appeared to be terribly understaffed for even a regular day. Service was sooooo slow. Hard to get even water refills. The food did arrive hot. It was very typical Mexican style food. I had a chicken macho burrito. The chicken was overcooked and it had a two shrimp in the filling. Fortunately I have no allergies to shellfish and actually like shrimp but his could have been disastrous for someone else. The restaurant was very loud and could also use some updates. In spite of the large crowd, and being grossly overworked, the staff remained helpful and friendly to the best of their ability which I give them kudos for considering the situation. Probably won't come back.

One thing I really appreciate is their QR code ordering system. You can order at your own pace, whether you're looking for a quick meal between shopping stops or want to settle in and enjoy a more relaxed dining experience. It's a simple system that makes the whole experience feel effortless. Our group's go-to order is the trio appetizer to share, followed by one or two tacos each. Everything is flavorful and just the right portion size, making it easy to mix and match different tacos each visit. Bartaco is almost always busy, so expect a 10-30 minute wait during peak times. Thankfully, with so many shops nearby, the wait goes by quickly and is well worth it. Between the convenient location, good food, and laid-back atmosphere, it's a spot we find ourselves coming back to again and again.
