Barracuda Taco Stand

I'm not a Texan, nor will I ever be. But I lived in and around Austin and went to San Antonio enough to know what good tacos taste like. And these are excellent excellent tacos. Homemade tortillas, killer spicy green avocado sauce. There's nothing not to like.Even on a Monday night, a half an hour before they closed, I thought the quality was excellent. The next time I pass through Baton Rouge, I am surely going to stop there.

I love it here. Service is usually pretty quick. I can usually enjoy a quick sip while waiting on the order to come up. Margarita and Louie Louie are my go Always consistent with the orders.

Great tacos and the green salsa is amazing. Queso was average we added some salsa macha and it gave it an amazing flavor. Plenty of outdoor seating is great for a hangout spot.

First visit to Barracuda, and I can confidently say it's now my new favorite spot for tacos in town! I started with the chips and queso and both were delicious. I then had a chicken taco and a steak taco and they were both amazing. The meat was perfectly seasoned and you could really taste how fresh everything was. Both tacos were served on a fresh flour tortilla with cilantro, onion, and lime. I also tried their homemade limeade and it was incredibly refreshing--definitely a must-try. The service was quick and friendly and the outdoor seating area had a great vibe. The only downside is that parking is a bit limited. All in all, everything about this place was fantastic and I can't wait to dine here again. Highly recommend it if you're a taco lover!

So, I have to honest. My first time eating at Barracuda, I felt like the tacos were just okay. Since returning, the tacos are fresh, hot when served, meat is tender and juicy. Everything is just delicious! I've been back at least 3 times in the last 2 months and I can't wait to go back again! The patio is perfect for the summer evening, even though it's still hot. They have plenty of fans and misters to keep you cool. Last time, I tried the pork taco, a change from my usual chicken and beef taco. Omg, I wish I would have tried it sooner! Definitely juicy, tender, and flavorful. Now I'm going to have a hard time choosing next time! I only wish there was more parking because that's the only con to this location. Even that won't stop me from enjoying these tacos! This place has easily become me and my husband's favorite laidback date night! See you in a couple of weeks!

Super great and inventive tacos!! I love the fish taco and the chicken taco. The pomegranate seeds on the fish taco just make it. Lots of seating all outdoors so perfect for a pretty day. Lots of greenery and a cute plant shop next door.

The best tacos I have ever had! Barracuda is such a great spot for tacos. They have lots to offer including delicious vegetarian options. I always get the mushroom taco and the broccoli taco. They're my absolute favorite. There's lot of seating at this establishment. You walk up to the window and order and then sit outside. The Paloma's there was really great too! Every time I visit Baton Rouge I always get Barracuda multiple times.

Fresh food and a fun outdoor experience Barracuda is perfect for meeting friends for a casual drink or stopping in for a quick fresh order of hot chips and cool salsa. There a lot of choices from fresh frozen cocktails to tacos and nachos. The service is walk up and the wait was quick with pick your seat in a beautifully landscaped garden.

I've been here a few times and I've always been pretty happy with my food. Since I came during happy hour I decided to get the nachos and taco special. I really liked the tacos. The nachos were okay it too chips were whole but it was nothing but crumbs directly underneath. The cheese sauce was bland I'm happy I added chorizo and chicken because that's where the flavor was coming from. But I wasn't happy with the bowl full of crumbs. The service wasn't bad at all and it didn't take long for my order to be ready. I'm thinking maybe if I would have dined in instead of to go it would have been better but it was a little rainy out.

I love this open air taco stand in Mid-City. Attached to a nursery, it's a great place to gather on a brisk fall day or evening, grab their classic marg, and enjoy some tasty and pretty unique tacos. I've been here a few times, and I have quickly found three go-to tacos that go beyond the regular pork, beef, and chicken options. The mushroom taco is topped with a spicy sauce, and I got mine "delux" with some beans and topping for just an extra $1.50. It was really good and filling. I also really enjoy the fish taco - again with a spicy sauce. So much flavor and again, really filling. Another one I took a chance on was the broccoli taco -- that was delish with the flavor of a grilled broccoli and charred ends. The classic marg is a great drink to go along with your meal. I have also heard the paloma is a good choice. I imagine during the summertime, it may be a bit oppressive with the heat, but there are covers throughout the area to provide some shade. Staff is really helpful too, and they will suggest various items to help you. Parking can be difficult as the lots are fairly small. However, there is street parking close by - just don't pull in anyone's yard. For some reason, some of the Mid-City residents don't realize we have a street-parking friendly neighborhood, so I was glared at and some neighbors have made public comments, but maybe they should embrace what the neighborhood has to offer.
