Tacos La Barca D.C is a hidden gem in Des Moines! 🌮 I recently enjoyed their birria tacos with cheese, and let me tell you, they are out of this world! Served with a delightful side of consomé, each bite was pure joy.

We also tried the carne asada tacos, which didn't disappoint either. The atmosphere is casual, making it perfect for families or solo dining. Plus, the service was on point; they even offered kerbside pickup for our convenience!

If you're in the area, this is a MUST-TRY! Can't wait to come back! 😊
