Barracuda is a neighborhood taco stand & margarita garden, serving high quality tacos on fresh tortillas. We believe that great food and drinks should be prepared simply - at an accessible price point - and foster fun and memorable experiences for a diverse community of people.
WHAT WE DO
Quality, fresh tortillas are the foundation of our menu, and the first thing we consider when thinking of new dishes. We aim to keep things similarly accessible & unfussy, so every guest can have a great taco. We make our tortillas fresh daily. We do this because it tastes better and allows us to make this staple food using great-quality, whole ingredients. We serve well sourced meats, vegetables, and seafood. Our margaritas and other refreshments are always made with fresh squeezed juices and 100% agave tequila.
VISION
Barracuda's vision is rooted in accessibility, aiming to expand our presence, bringing the essence of a neighborhood taco stand to diverse markets. We believe that everyone deserves the joy and convenience of having a local taco stand in their community, fostering a sense of togetherness through shared culinary experiences. Our focus on growth is not just about expanding geographically but also about making connections in the immediate communities we serve.
Our customers deserve great tacos and well made drinks at a great value, along with an accessible and easy-going vibe.
Our role is to facilitate great customer experiences through food, drink, music, and laid back but proactive hospitality - not too much, just enough - creating an environment of service and teamwork so that the needs of each other and our customers are always met
Our customers shouldn't have to “hack” the menu to have a satisfying meal: so we must be experts at accommodating and guiding them efficiently to what will make a uniquely great meal for them - and executing their order consistently - so they can enjoy the best version of what we work hard together to create.

Be patient and direct
The ole' "it's not what you say, it's how you say it" goes a long way! Reinforce positives and seek solutions for negatives - Building resentment isn't good for anyone. Being negative is our way of paying attention to potential problems, so reframe your negative! Communicate frustrations as they come along and offer up a solution. When we work together, it's always better and there's always a way.
Be willing to hear and teach "The Why"
Taking the extra 10-15 seconds to hear and teach "the why" we do what we do creates a culture of respect, learning and understanding.
Recover with style
Set yourself up for success! If we are properly prepared and focused, mistakes are few and far between - but when we do fail, it's all about recovering in style by learning and growing from our mistakes!
Appreciate the team and customers we have
It takes two to tango! Our customers need the team and the team needs our customers. We all work hard to make this thing go! Believe in our vision, yourself, our team, and always look for the best in people - we can accomplish anything as long as we believe we can.
