bartaco - Chapel Hill: A Taco Haven in the Heart of North Carolina

Tasted great. Tried all the tacos and enjoyed each one. Most favorite was pork belly taco.

Great tasting food. In the restaurant the portions are small but enough. The rice bowl is a significantly smaller portion in a to go order than it is in the restaurant.

Oh my gosh the food was SOOOO good. Everything came out so fast too I was not expecting like 5 different staff members to be handling our order. I will happily be coming back here.

Newly discovered this place and am in love! My coworkers and I have been every week since. The tacos are about palm size, but very filling and they give you generous portions of meat. The shrimp tacos and Baja fish tacos are my favorites, but I’ve tried others and they’re all good. The sides are delicious as well. I’ve tried the street corn (off the cob), black beans and the pineapple with tajin, and they’re all delicious! During my last visit I had the key lime pie in a jar and it did not disappoint, 10/10 must try. I would highly recommend. I’ve been during lunch, and in the evening and service never disappoints. We’ve always made it back to work in an hour with no problems. You can either write your order out or place the order online when you’re familiar enough with the process. Both are easy. Check this restaurant out for sure.

Our daughter is in the nearby UNC Hospital and we were so happy to find BarTaco. From the moment we walked in, we knew this was going to be a great place, and would take our minds off of the hospital, even for a brief bit. The food and drinks were fantastic and Thomas was SUPER helpful and accommodating in making suggestions to us first-timers. We were so pleased with our dinner a few nights ago, that we brought our step mom/M.I.L. (visiting) for dinner tonight. Although we LOVED The pork belly tacos (among other things) a few days ago, we forced ourselves to try a bunch of other stuff that we didn’t previously eat… the verdict.. can’t find ANYTHING that we didn’t like. From the cucumber salad, the street corn, the rice bowls, any of the tacos… it’s all delicious and fresh from their scratch kitchen. Seriously, this has been our favorite place to eat during the last 3 weeks that we’ve been in Chapel Hill and you can’t go wrong with anything you try. Do yourself a favor and go there… you will not regret it!

My friends and I went to Bar Taco before an a cappella concert at UNC. It was my first time after hearing a lot of positive reviews. They did not disappoint. The food is incredible. It comes at a relatively high price point but it is well worth it. Averie was our server and she did a phenomenal job. The only minor issue I had was that the music was a little loud but even then it wasn’t that much of a nuisance. Would definitely recommend.

This place is awesome! My family and I were coming back home late and most places had closed. We called to check and this place welcomed us with open arms. We didn't feel rushed at all. Quite the opposite. Everyone was so helpful and nice, and it made the vibe feel so much better. The music was bangin and the lighting was on point. The salsas are an absolute "must try" here. This place cares about their sauces. High standards here and that's why I'm giving them high praise. Well done yall.

Bartaco is absolutely delicious! I've been 3 times, and each time, the tacos and appetizers have blown me away. Special favorites include the cauliflower tacos, the esquites, and the plantains.
