I originally hadn't intended to stop by, but with the doors all opened and the airy feel of the location compelled me despite... not having the greatest appetite. I ordered three tacos - I was told people often order 3 - 5 because they're small eats. I gotthe roasted duck, a fish taco, and a fried oysters taco. The wait time was a little much, but given universal staffing concernsand the fact there were a sizable number of people already there 20 minutes after they opened, it was reasonable. Overall, afun experience. My star rating may go up the next time I go when I can try more items and actually have an appetite. Definitelyworth the side-tracking if you're shopping at Hilldale.

The timing on the arrival of our food was a little off but it was also very busy. The food was extremely good. We ordered the... ceviche, chicken Verde rice bowl, corn fritters and some chips with guacamole. All very tasty and fresh. We'll certainly becoming back again. Read more

Great place for a cozy dinner for couples. Great ambiance. Central bar area with mild music. Friendly and knowledgeable... staff. During Covid with mask restrictions, it was QR code scan menu, order online and delivered to the table. Food great withsubtle flavors. Tacos were amazing and for the 1st time I?m seeing the big chips with guacamole (fresh of course). Ahi tuni wasamazing. Wheel chair accessible entrance. Entrance faces south. Overall it was great experience and I will visit this placeagain. Read more

Stopped in here on our way out of town. We did not know what to expect with the way ordering is set up. Ended up really enjoying... the food (the fish tacos are so good) and our waitress was cool. I don?t remember her name and should have asked. Everyone wasfriendly and the decor is awesome. I haven?t walked out of a restaurant and been so fulfilled in a long time. It was great thankyou!!

I had four different tacos: duck, oysters, pork belly, and baja fish. They were all very tasty and I highly highly recommend!... That said, if I really really had to choose the top 3, it would be the first 3 ones I listed. Tip: Mexican ranch on the sidemade them even juicier, if you ask me! It doesn?t come with the order by default so you might have to ask for it. Read more

The food here is amazing! The flavors are rich and unexpected from standard fare. I highly recommend everybody try the plantains... as they blew me away with their sweet and salty taste. The glazed pork belly is a perfectly sweet meat but still tender andflavorful. I was surprised with how good the food was honestly, but it?s reassuring to know that the drinks are just as good.Kudos to the staff for great food, great vibes, and a great time. My favorite place to eat in Madison by far. Read more

At Bartaco you order online and then they bring your food out to you. Personally I was not a big a fan of this system and the... website I had to use to order my food was very annoying. The appetizers were the best part. The guacamole and salsas wereamazing. The corn fitters were delicious. The tacos were just okay. I didn?t think they were anything amazing. Overall servicewas pretty quick and it was a good meal but I would not come back here. Read more
