Took the Ferry over to Algiers solely to come to the Barracuda taco stand (and sure to also say we crossed the Mississippi while in NOLA. It was 32 degrees and 100% humidity (over 90 I guess for Americans) so needless to say it was HOT and the walk from the ferry to the stand was brutal because of it. Knowing what I know now, I would have walked through straight fire to get more of these tacos, chips and queso. We've back in Australia for a week and my husband (he just got two beef) has brought up several times that he didn't realise how good they were at the time. I ordered 3 tacos, Pork, Beef and a Chicken, rated from 1-3 in the written order. From the tortilla, to how the meat was spiced and cooked as well as the varied toppings that accompanied each taco, these were phenomenal and a must visit if you're in New Orleans, quite possibly my favourite meal the whole time I was there. We also had the chips with queso which were delicious and chips were refillable! Everyone who worked there was super nice as well and really friendly - which was world's apart from the majority of service we received. The venue is also SUPER cute, outdoor seating only with big umbrellas, would be the perfect place to spend a day with friends and drink and eat your way through their menu.

We wandered from New Orleans to Algiers Point via the ferry. As we walked around we came across this gem. We just love the ambiance, the food was top notch and they had good beer. What a fantastic location!! I am a real estate agent and think every neighborhood should be developed like Algiers Point. There is a park for children on the corner across from Barracuda, and near by there is a church and a bar amidst adorable houses. Great location!! We did not get a picture of our food because we were too eager to eat. We just forgot!!

Found this place on Google maps and it was close to our hotel. The food is delicious! We got chips and queso with chorizo, a chorizo taco and a pork taco in separate boats. I got the mushroom taco and the farmer taco sharing a boat. The guacamole sauce with the pork tacos was spicy hot and tasty. The mushroom taco was smokey flavored- loved it! The farmer taco was delicious too! Husband preferred the pork to the chorizo taco, but both were great! The queso dip was nice and light. We ate all of our food! Yum.

stopped by to grab a quick snack, and got the crispy fish taco with pickled red onions. it was the best taco I've ever had. I will be going back. tried the chicken bowl, it was good but not great. the fish tacos are by far better. spicy margarita and strawberry margarita are both tasty and refreshing. the guacamole and queso (spicy w/ chorizo) are both fantastic as well. the salsa is very good with a nice spicy kick. but man, those fish tacos cannot be beat. pickled red onions cost extra but are a must.

Honestly the best Taco of my life was this place lol. For a small Taco stand in the middle of Algiers Point, their food has no business being this good. The sweet potato Taco was an amazing blend of sweet, salt, spice and freshness. If it's on the menu (it's a monthly special as I write this review), GET IT! Chips were lovely, as was the salsa. It's definitely more of a runny salsa than chunky, but still great! If I ever return to Louisiana, you best bet Barracuda will be my first stop 😙
