Bartaco Restaurant

Today I visited Bartaco on Marietta Street and had one of the most disappointing experiences ever. Despite the restaurant being unusually slow, I was only offered seating outside in 90° weather because their refusal to offer the massive open seating inside. (Managers) please understand that at some juncture you actually have to do work so if you’re short-staffed, you may want to consider picking up a table or two.
