A taqueria on the lower level of Ballston Quarter has closed permanently.
Bartaco is now shuttered at 4238 Wilson Blvd. The New York-based franchise spent over four years in the mall’s lower-level food hall.
Bartaco opened in January 2021
- The restaurant offered tacos with toppings like crispy oyster, roasted duck and ahi tuna. It also served salads, rice bowls, and chips and dip.
- Permits and state records do not yet indicate a new tenant for the space.
- Bartaco’s nearby locations in D.C., Reston and the Mosaic District remain open.
The food hall has new kiosks
- Tous les Jours bakery opened on the lower level last month, and the East Asian-themed Luna Bar hopes to open there this spring.
- Hot pot restaurant Top Pot is currently aiming for a summer opening near Mezeh on the mall’s ground floor level.
Bartaco and Ballston Quarter’s management team did not respond to requests for comment.
