“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.“

“Great food and great prices. We did the $1 tacos. You get your choice of meat with any of the choices. We did asada/steak and chorizo/spiced sausage for our meals. With bottled coke. So delicious. We ate under covered and clean picnic tables. I had coworkers swear this place was awesome, but I only just now tried it. Sorry I didn't try it sooner. So good. Thank you Taco My Friend.“

“Maria (the owner) works the cashier as well as making the food. We are in town from Atlanta, Georgia. This is the best Mexican food we have had! Don’t cheat yourself come visit Maria, it’s worth the drive!You’ve tried the rest, NOW TRY THE BEST!$$$$The value is very good too! $$$Places to sit inside and out side.“
“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!“
“This little place is fantastic! I had the pleasure of trying their chimichanga for the first time, and it was fantastic. I'll definitely be coming back for more. If you haven't visited yet, you're seriously missing out. I highly recommend it!“
“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.“
“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.“
“No trip to Lego Land would be complete with out a stop here food is awesome salsa is best around staff is great mostly Spanish speaking eating here cowboys and farmers my grand kids love it clean and really authentic menu.Fast forward 5 years the food was still good house salsa still bad ordered Pico was good Quaso was soso the drinks tasted like cleaner we left 30.00 fo marguritas on the table we complained and were to the better margurita was more our bill was $163.00 four adults and two teens we have been at this resturant six times over past years the basic food is good but you you have to order upgrades if you want edible and drinkable food.. The Bar staff could care less she was busy flirting with customers.“
“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.“
“If you want homemade scratch Mexican food this is your place. The food is just so good. The service was excellent and friendly. The only reason I gave a 4 for atmosphere was the tables are wobbly. Eat here and trust me you will leave happy and full.“
“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.“
“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...“
“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“
“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.“
“Very good place, I just discovered it, but it seems that the food is very good, I only went for food for a friend's event, a little more organization in the case of orders, but everyone was always very friendly, very good attention. I'm waiting to go try the tamales.“
