Fresh tacos, aquas frescas + more are coming to Birkdale Village in Lake Norman tonight
Bartaco, a restaurant focused on upscale street food and specialty cocktails, is opening its third North Carolina location in Lake Norman for dinner service tonight, Wednesday, Feb. 21.
The 3,400-square-foot, full-service restaurant is situated across from the Grove at the Birkdale Village shopping center. The restaurant’s other locations in North Carolina are in Chapel Hill and Raleigh.
The food: The menu is separated into tacos, “not tacos” and rice bowls.
Taco choices: include baja fish, seared chorizo, spiced chicken verde and mushroom. One very important thing to note here: You can’t get individual tacos delivered. (Corn tortillas and Bibb lettuce shells don’t travel well.) You can, however, order a taco pack with four to eight tacos with your choice of protein or mushrooms and 4” corn tortillas or Bibb lettuce shells with assembly and reheating required.
Rice bowl options: You choose among spiced chicken verde, chorizo, mushroom and cauliflower.
What’s considered “not tacos”?: Ceviche, tuna poke and the like. Sides such as guacamole, chips and salsa are also sold separately.
The drinks: Expect a Latin flair in the drink menu, as well. You’ll find bottled Mexican Coke, along with aguas frescas, freshly squeezed lemonade and limeade.
