“Juancho's Birrieria offers an unforgettable dining experience, made even more exceptional by the outstanding service of Valeria and Yanaris on the front-end team. Their attentiveness and warmth enhanced our meal. And as for the Ramen Birria, it's simply the best I've ever tasted. The flavors were rich and authentic, leaving me craving more. A must-visit spot for foodies seeking top-notch service and exquisite cuisine!“

“This place has the best birria ramen I've had in awhile. The drive is definitely worth it! Price is decent. The aqua fresca drinks are delicious. I had the watermelon sincec they were out for the other flavors but it was so good! I live in Lakeland but driving there is definitely worth it. The people there are very friendly and nice. It doesn't take long to make the orders either. It's located right outside a gas station. They don't have much for seating though so definitely plan to either eat it in the car or take home. I think they have like 1 table and a few chairs which is totally fine because the food was delicious!“

“One of the best Mexican food places I have been to and it's one of the best in the area if not the best Spanish food in central Florida. Service is real simple walk up to the counter order they give you a box of greatness enjoy. Now the location is the only draw back just get it to go park by a lake enjoy the beauty of Florida and the delicious food.“

“Best Mexican food in Bartow, maybe even Polk County. The staff are super friendly and they never disappoint. The closest thing to the Mexican food I ate in Los Angeles. Very authentic, even the tortillas are hand made. I eat there usually like twice a week. It's so good!!!!“

“Honestly, we went here after our normal go-to Mexican restaurant was filled up for Cinco de Mayo. I will say, that we now have a new go-to Mexican restaurant. Even though they were extremely busy they were able to accommodate our party of 5 plus an infant. We had fabulous margaritas while waiting for even better food. The atmosphere was great! They had a DJ announcing trivia for door prizes and playing fabulous Mexican music. I can't wait to go back!“

“This spot is a local one. They've grown and grown through the years and we love them here. The food is mexican style. The tacos are 1$ still after at least 8 years. Easy ratings. It is a food truck that's permanently parked. They don't try to be anything other than that, and that's what makes them great.There's a wide range of food options. I think they have 15 options give or take. Tamales. Tacos. Nachos. Burritos. Normal fare. All hot and cooked right then. This is a Mexican food truck. If you're expecting more, don't. It is what you expect and I think we all love for that. You'll get some cooked onions, cilantro, and meet with your tacos. Corn tortillas. Verde (green chilies sauce) or rojo (red peppers). Both are spicy. A pepper cooked. A slice of cucumber. There's a few drink options like Arizona tea and mexican coke.Service is just what you'd expect. The people are nice. There is a small language translation. They can speak English well enough to take your order accurately. It is a bit loud outside of the truck between the people, music, and equipment. Then broken English and noise make the ordering exactly what you'd expect. Just deal with it and grab your tacos. If it is an issue for you, don't come to this spot. This is the taco truck. It is what it is and we like it for that.The atmosphere was also described above but to expand, this is just slightly above a parking lot. There are wooden benches to smash the tacos and move on. It can be breath takingly hot. Not in the stunning beautiful way. In the central florida hot way. They have some cover but this is asphalt and road. It'll be hot and have biting bugs at certain points of the day. There'll be road noise and you're in the parking lot of a pawn shop. Again, and for the last time I promise, this is a taco truck. Please don't confuse it for anything else. We enjoy having this spot and they deserve all the best. The tacos are hot, well cooked, and made to order. They're still a dollar after forever and they haven't changed.I love this taco truck and I hope they never change. If you want some street tacos, this is one of the best spots.Vegetarian options: It is mexican food out of a truck, almost everything will have touched a surface with meat. I'm sure you could order only veggies on your food but I wouldn't pick this place to try that out. Better to skip this one if you're very finicky about this.Parking: Plenty of parking. This is in the parking lot of a pawn shop. It kind of shares the space but it is definitely sharing the parking lot with the pawn shop. I am sure the taco truck does far more business than the pawn shop.Kid-friendliness: Depends on if you're sitting down to eat or not. I see people there with their kids all the time but make sure you read the review. It gets hot outside. It is loud. It is near a road and in the parking lot of a business. This is a spot where you eat and move on. You can sit and eat but that's your choice. Having kids there too may suck.Wheelchair accessibility: It would be hard for someone in a wheelchair to order. The window to order is pretty high. I'm assuming since I am not in one but I'm short (5'7") enough to still have to yell into the window myself. I don't know if it is an issue but just be prepared to possibly have to raise your voice significantly. The parking shouldn't be an issue. Or navigating at the table area.“

“These were some of the BEST tacos I’ve had in years. I’m a native Texan and have given up on finding good mexican food since living in the FL/GA area. I finally decided to give this place a try since we were in the area and omg best decision ever. I had the $5 taco special and it was so good. 4 delicious tacos plus rice and beans. What a steal! My husband had the enchiladas and he said they were incredible as well. I hope we can make it here again before we head back to GA!“

“My first time having authentic tacos! They did not disappoint. There's a great little outdoor area with shade for waiting and eating. ?Parking: It's in the lot right beside the taco stand.Kid-friendliness: There's room outside for them to just be kids. It's also fenced off from the main road making it safer for little ones. ❣️“

“My favorite authentic taco spot!!!I saw the top 3 picks for Winter Haven and honestly couldn't believe he wasn't listed. I enjoy their asada taco's regularly. The tacos are always seasoned to perfection. My kids snarl at most thing's green, request the cilantro and onion to their tacos when we go. The owner is always friendly. In my opinion, this is the #1 place to get the best tasting tacos.“

“Amazing burrito, but the menu made it difficult to decide! Loved the accessibility, appearance, atmosphere; everything smelled great from the time we walked in. I knew we had found the right place when there were multiple people standing to pick up orders, but we were seated immediately. I tried a couple of the tacos, they were light and delicious. I can't wait to go back and try their newest menu items: birria tacos and marinated chicken tacos! Recommendation: get the giant burrito if you're going to get one anyway. They have take out boxes you can use for half of it and you'll be glad you did when you can't stop thinking about it the next day!“

“Amazing tacos, most tacos are $1 dollar at piece, yes you read it right $1 dollar. My favorite, tacos de chorizo, super tasty and not super greasy, they have a really straight forward menu. I do recommend you call ahead since they are always busy.“
“We went to Plaza Mexico today to get some Barbacoa and Pork! Got a lb of each and you can see what comes with it, everything you need to make street tacos!! Fresh in house made tortillas, fresh limes,onions, cilantro, and sauce!! The Barbacoa is as good or better than any I had while we lived in Texas. We met the manager, (totally cool dude) and he got us a sample of the chicharrones with some pork attached, first time we ever tried it, totally amazing!! The Conchas are so fresh!! The whole store and food truck outside has such a great atmosphere, if you want delicious, authentic Mexican food definitely go to Plaza Mexico!!“

“Fabulous, bare bones sit down restaurant. Extensive and comprehensive menu. Huge portion of excellent pozole. Birria tacos were wonderful. No alcohol, but excellent Mexican juices and sodas. Part of the Jean Talon market, which is well worth going to. Will definitely be back.“

“This was our second Azteca visited.The other was in Lakeland, FL.My wife and I had a date night.The food was good. A little spicy ? got milk?Overall, I recommend this location.The only downside is that Azteca is not military friendly.As a disabled veteran, I always appreciate an establishment more when the military is recognized. I also appreciate when seniors are recognized even more.In business, to recognize these two groups sets you on a different level.Handicap friendly ?“

“Wow! This is such a treasure in downtown Bartow. We were downtown for SyFy festival and ate lunch here. One of the best, most authentic Mexican in the area. All of the food was superb and the service was fantastic. They were very busy but still super friendly. You could tell their employees were happy and glad to work there. I was concerned when the quesadilla came out as my daughter is picky but she loved it. Well worth a stop!“
“This place is off the charts don’t let the outside fool you it is amazing. Try the Barbacoa tacos and the asada torta. The tamarindo agua is sooooo good. I’m Hispanic and this place was amazing. Picture of my mom enjoying the food she’s a hella hard critic and she even loved it.“

“After moving here from San Diego California four years ago, good Mexican food is hard to find in Florida especially Central Florida. I'm used to Little Road stands that have burritos that are open all day and all night. With abuela in the back and making tortillas for the tacos and the grill on the side smoking the place up. Today I found just that. A little food truck trailer on the side of the road with some picnic tables and awnings to cover it for shade. Not much to look at but I can smell it as we pulled in to the makeshift parking lot. We ordered two carne asada burritos with pico de gallo and guacamole and onions and carne asada tacos. I haven't tasted really true good carne asada since I've been here for the four years that we've lived here. But today took me back. Tender grilled beef with that grilled taste, crispy white onions, guacamole, and pico de gallo and my favorite, verde salsa! If you need white tablecloths and singing waiters this is not your joint. This a little roadside food stand that serves it up and serves it up well.“
“In Carmelitas, the food is really good, I love it, and even more so with those beautiful tortillas that the ladies cook there, and the menudo is so tasty, and even more so with the delicious tortillas, I recommend that you come to the Carmelitas store and you will like the food and My respects to the people who cook here, thanks, blessings“

“The tacos are great. A bit skimpy when asking for extra condiment or cheese. The lime when asking for extra is dry and hard and juiceless... Wish they would use items like lettuce and tomatoes.. I bought a tostada once it was loaded with shredded cabbage. I get it that is how they are but some people don't like cabbage tostada's... These are not bad points but just an idea of pros and cons. Fried chicken is good flutes are good. All in all El Tarasco is a great clean place to take your family to eat. I admit, I'm just a picky eater. Make the tacos bigger. Make like value deals for lunch and dinner. My thoughts. Enjoy...“

“Place is awesome! They cook great! it is in my opinion a little more expensive than i would like to pay if it was a tad cheaper i might make this part of my weekly ritual but everytime i order it hits the spots, the birria tacos are amazing, the quesadillas are great my kids love them, the chimichanga is awesome! But more importantly the treatment from the two women servicing is always with a smile and they try to give you the best service posible.“

“Authentic Mexican food. I definitely recommend this taco spot. My family and I were heading down to Miami from Orlando and were craving Mexican food. I called first to see what kind of tacos they offered, they had a broad choice compared to other locations I had called. They offer tripa, chorizo, asada, cabeza, pollo, nopales , and more. Their aguas frescas are also delicious and refreshing, without being overly sugary. The best part about this taco spot is that the tortillas are hand made, not store purchased. I would definitely return on my next trip to Orlando. The customer service was also a plus.“

“I got the 4 Tacos Plate. It came out to $13.26 including a soda. Took 15 mins and Flavor was pretty good but the portion size made me laugh alittle because I could fit the whole meal in my two hands(minus the can of soda…maybe)?*My crusty hand is in the picture for reference*I’d come back. Just gatta ask for how big the order is for now on?“

“For the good stuff - I had their chicken tamales and my boyfriend had the chimichanga with tamarind aqua frescas. Absolutely DELICIOUS. Flavorful, meat was juicy and tender, the rice and beans had SAZON. Sometimes I go to Mexican restaurants and their beans and rice are very lackluster. Not here. It was all delicious I ordered a plate to go to have some for lunch the next day.The bad - the service was a bit lacking. We waited a really long time for someone to take our order, you can tell they are really understaffed that day. The hostess and our server were incredibly sweet and apologetic though which is nice we tipped very well it’s not their fault. But yeah be prepared to possibly wait a while but the food was really worth it tbh.“

“I have seen this restaurant for years and never stopped in. Wow have I been missing out!. The chips and salsa were so delicious- just enough heat for me. They even bring out separate salsa bowls so everyone has their own. I ordered taquitos. The chicken was very flavorful and moist and the taquitos were fried perfectly. My friend ordered the chimichanga and said hers was also very good. I got my son a to go quesadilla and he said it was "fire". ? I tool no photos because I was busy eating! The service was fantastic.“

“I only ordered one time, so far. I had two pork tacos with homemade red sauce (& limes). For $3.⁰⁰, it is way Better than McDonald's. YUMMY; and, I will go back. Their MENU is varied in selections and prices. They have outside seating under a canape. If you are in he area, on Snively Road, stop by for a bite. Be careful of the 5 lanes of traffic. And, there is space to park, order, and go..ENJOY“
