El Barco Mexican Restaurant - Columbus

Spare yourself the unnecessary wait. I waited 45 minutes for staff just to acknowledge that we were even there sitting at the table. No one ever came to our table. People came in after us and received chips and salsa and drinks immediately. I had my 2 year old and my husband. My 2 year old was being fussy because she was hungry and I was wearing a bright pink hat and outfit because its my birthday outfit that said happy birthday on the hat with unicorns. so there's no way they didn't see me or hear my daughter. 45 minute wait at the table is unacceptable especially if you're not busy . It's a shame because the food is so good there but I'm never coming back. The general manager Robert was very nice and tried to smooth it over but what can you really say when your entire staff ignored us and we were sitting smack dab in the middle of the dinning room. We went to el vaquero instead. Received prompt , good service and delicious food?? bye bye el barco

It’s the second time we went here! Never go back… Food was horrible, bad service. There are better options and less expensive with great taste such as “The Fish Market”

Great Mexican food, atmosphere and live singing. Took my wife for mother's day dinner and she as well the kids love it.I definitely recommend it if you want someone to have great experience.

We were often here and always had great food. I ordered a steak fajita and was very satisfied with the size of the portion. the only disappointment was that I needed more than the three small tortillas that were provided, and that our server did not check in with us to order more. many seafood options available.

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.
