31 Best Mexican Restaurants near Bradenton Beach

“Wicked Cantina on Anna Maria Island is exactly the kind of place that keeps me coming back to this area. This is what I like,a spot that’s run by locals, not some big chain, where you actually feel welcomed when you walk in.

The food is good, fresh, and consistent. But what really makes it stand out is the people. You can tell they genuinely want to make sure you’re well received and that you enjoy yourself. That kind of service makes a difference.“

“delicious food and good service. I don't know what they put in their chimi aioli sauce, but I'd pay for a quart sized jug if I could“

“Stopped in for lunch with the family and was very impressed with the quality and taste“

“Steak tacos are a different style. The meat is well-done, flavorful, and almost flaky. It's full of flavor, no fat balls, and the corn tortillas are perfect. Cilantro and chopped onions are on-point. The salsa verde and rojo are perfect. They also give you grilled onions and lime. These tacos are incredibly flavorful with no weird crap in them.“

“Ordered the seafood pineapple dish, and it made my day. The flavors all came together, and the amount of fresh seafood was more than ample. The tables are clean, and the plating of the dishes is suberb. I sample a margarita and realized we will be returning.“

“I have driven by many times and we finally stopped by. They are usually doing business like crazy every time we drive by. After eating the tacos... im coming back A LOT. The food is great, I cant wait to go back and try everything else. These tacos are fantastic, we got the carnitas and sauces but honestly these are fine just the way they are...perfect.“

“Delicious food! Great service!!!“

“So good and so fresh!!! I was getting my car serviced at Honda next door and it was taking longer than expected. Stopped over to this taco truck and was greeted by a nice woman who made the food herself. My tacos were fantastic and a great price. Only regret was not ordering more of them!“

“Super good food! Number 1 taco spot around! Always very friendly and super fast service!“

“We're regulars here, stopping by once or twice a month for their perfect asada tacos – our kids are huge fans also! We always prefer supporting this amazing local spot over any chain. The prices are extremely reasonable, and as someone who doesn't speak Spanish, I've never had any trouble ordering. The food is consistently hot, fresh, and well-packaged, always made to order and served very fast!“

“This small place in a strip mall serves good food fast. Their speciality is BBQ chicken and it is flavorful and a great value for the money. When you order, the food comes out super quick. We opted for the 6 piece with rice and charro beans, which comes with at least 10 fresh tortillas. Don’t expect heavy cheese or sauces- this is all about the chicken. I imagine it could be dry depending on when it was cooked, but what we had was flavorful and juicy. Served with a smile and in a small rating area. Definitely worth the trip to check them out.“

“Taqueria El Taquito Mix delivers some of the best tacos for the fairest price in Bradenton! The owner and the others who I always see working there are beyond kind, and always offer great service.It’s a cash only establishment, but I believe you can pay via CashApp or Apple Pay as well.The tacos al pastor are my go to and they never disappoint, and the fresh limes and cucumbers are sublimé! The rice and beans were great too, and the drink options are very nice as well.Don’t miss out on the best food truck in Bradenton and put your money back into the community!

Parking: Only downside is you’d have to park farther down near the strip but it’s not a nuisance.“

“Super Rico, buena atención y excelente calidad! Lo recomiendo mucho“

“The barbacoa was a little dry, which surprised me. The pastor was very flavorful, if a bit greasy. The homemade salsas were both outstanding: creamy and flavorful without being overwhelmingly spicy. Quick service, mostly friendly. Relaxed, casual atmosphere but a fairly large covered seating area is a great thing to have down in Florida.“

“They have the best food there good service and friendly best tacos best chillrelleno“

“Super Rico, buena atención y excelente calidad! Lo recomiendo mucho“

“this food is amazing !“

“Two of my grown children and I ate there one night this week. Our server, Sebastian, was very attentive. He took our drink orders right away, and brought salsa and chips soon after.

The guacamole was very fresh - I think it could have used more salt, but it was GOOD! I don't eat salsa, but my kids loved it.

All of our food was great - HUGE portions!

I don't eat much, so I only ordered an appetizer. It fed me for three nights, as I took most of it home. Flavor was excellent, prices were reasonable, and we all enjoyed our food!“

“Food is always good great atmosphere“

“🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻todo me encanta aquí 🫶🏻“

“Family owned and operated. Very kind, sweet family. The food is fresh and extremely delicious! I only order chicken tacos which come loaded, raw onions, fried onions, cilantro, avocado, cheese, well seasoned chicken, and salsas. So so so good!“

“Been here twice and ill be back many more times! The food is so good! So good! The service is amazing! Everything about this place is beyond compare. Freshest pico, actually spicy hot sauce, and the most refreshing agua fresca. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!“

“The popusa was good, the quesadilla too but the tacos weren’t good. The meat didn’t look good and didn’t taste good. My husband try one. He tried but couldn’t eat it all. We told one waitress and she didn’t say anything, she sat down to eat. We told the cashier at the moment she gave us a dirty look and proceeded to charge us for the one taco he ate, ok but she didn’t have to give us an attitude. Won’t be coming back that’s for sure.“

“You must start with the Calamari. That is the signature appetizer. Their food is so flavorful. A mix of aperuan and Mexican Cuisines. Family Owned. The staff was incredible. The artwork was breathtaking inside the restaurant. This place is a must. #followtheflavor🔥 En tu debes empezar con el Calamari. Ese es el aperitivo característico. Su comida es muy sabrosa. Para una mezcla de cocina abierta y mexicana. en la familia propiedad. El personal era increíble. La obra de arte era impresionante dentro del restaurante. Este lugar es una necesidad. #sigueelsabor🌶️“

“Love Poppos!!! We eat here probably more than we should, but the food is always delicious and the staff and the service is always friendly. The ambiance is clean and very trendy. Shout to Steve the manager he is always so nice and goes out of his way to say hi to us. Thanks Steve!“
