Review El Barco Mexican Restaurant - Columbus

Lindsey Demaree
I met a former coworker here for dinner on a Friday night around 6 pm and there was no wait to be seated. The menu has lots and LOTS of options to choose from. πŸ˜‹ There are complimentary chips and salsa and the chips are warm. 😍 My husband was excited to try the ceviche and a friend recommended I ordered the fajitas. The food didn't take too long to arrive after we ordered. I was a bit underwhelmed with the fajitas. It lacked flavor, in my opinion. My husband said the ceviche was different than what he is used to (he's Peruvian) but he liked it. I ordered the tres leches for dessert and it doesn't taste like they make it at the restaurant. Maybe it's frozen and they thaw it out, I'm not sure, but it was mediocre, unfortunately. Overall, the restaurant is clean and the staff is friendly. My old coworker is also Peruvian but he's fluent in Spanish so he made me order in Spanish and ask for things in Spanish so needless to say I embarrassed myself 🀣 but the waiter thought it was funny lol. I'd go here again if I was on this side of town but I'll order something else next time.

Ordered 'el trio' on door dash. Also came with 3 taco size flour tortillas. Everything is good, just a little bland. The meats are overcooked and the dirt track was left in the shrimp, which is gross. I wish they included chips and salsa. I would have paid for them, but it wasn't an option to order, so I assumed they came with the meal.

Nice surprise here in West Columbus. Lots of seafood offerings which you don’t usually see in Mexican restaurants. Had the oysters, fried mojarra and pork carnitas. All great! Huge portions. Decent price. Friendly servers.

Fantastic! The best Mexican food in Columbus Ohio by far. The chef must be very happy because the food was so great. I am blown away by how awesome my experience was here. I am very proud to share my opinion in hopes that other people will get to enjoy the food as well. Biggest deal was that the shrimp cocktail was dead on. Everything here is made with love πŸ’™πŸ™πŸ˜Ž

I had the seafood stuff pineapple which was amazing. I always struggle getting the picture before I dig in, but at least I was able to capture one before the entire thing was gone. The food is amazing and I ordered the creamy sauce which isn't spicy.

Some of the best food and service I've ever had! The pineapple-seafood dish was delicious, and everyone else in my group had the whole fish, whoch was very fresh and delicious. We also had the ceviche as an spp, which was excellent. I am very haooy one of my friends reccomended this place and I will definitely be coming back. Oh, I can't forget to mention their french fries... These things are better than Rallys. I now have a new favorite french fry! . Finally, this place is also a good value. You get a ton of food for the price. So yourself a favor and check this place out. If I had to say anything bad about this place, it would be that they didn't have an entire menu page devoted to margaritas. However, I'm not so sure that is a bad thing. They had some really cool drinks, but figuring out how to order them was the issue. We simply asked our server and they made it happen. 10/10 A+ this place makes me proud to live in Columbus :)

Came here with my parents and friends. We loved Salamon (nice eyes & lashes) and we loved the vibe. Our server was friendly & just an amazing person. Your Asian friends/family! πŸ’—
