39 Best Mexican Restaurants in Sarasota

“Fantastic food and service. We had chips, queso and 4 tacos. Probably should have only had 1 taco, but had to try another one! The chips are unique and delicious too. Very casual atmosphere. Feel like they take the quality of their food very seriously! You can tell. We ate at the Bee Ridge/Tuttle location.“

“AMAZING tacos spot!! Best tacos I've had in Sarasota holy cow! Get the carne asada on corn tortillas and use both sauces. I can't wait to try everything else. Also they're EXTREMELY fast. Super friendly too :) busy at lunch time. It's a taco truck so gotta eat in your car, minimal parking around.“

“5 Stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We had such a great time here! The Mexican food was absolutely delicious, flavorful, fresh, and authentic. The live mariachi band really brought the place to life.

“Our birthday party of 9 was an amazing evening with our wonderful server,Carlos. Everybody loved all their entrees and I especially loved my enchilada with mole sauce. Thank you to the female owner who came over to our table and informed me she would prepare anything I wanted with the special”mole”(pronounced mollay)sauce. Wonderful and happy hour prices were the best👏🏻👍🏻🍹“

“Total Mexican vibe!! The food is as fabulous as anything you can get from a sidewalk vendor in Mexico. We have been looking for good Mexican food in Sarasota for over 4 months and I had finally decided that there is no good Mexican food here till I came across this place tonight. Definitely recommend and worth whatever drive you have in order to get there! Can’t say enough good about the food! Totally amazing.“

“Found this restaurant by accident. It was really good. Mike and Quin are a dynamic duo. They made our experience so much fun.“

“Rigo Taco Ricos is what happens when a food truck marries a gas station and their child grows up to become a flavor god.

This burrito? Life-changing. I’m not being dramatic — every bite felt like a warm hug from someone who knows how to season meat. The rice was fluffy perfection, the grilled meat had that smoky, just-charred-enough edge, and the cheese melted into the kind of creamy happiness that usually only happens in dreams. The tortilla? Griddled with love. I don’t know what Rigo’s doing back there, but I would 100% attend a TED Talk on it.

And the salsas? The green one flirted with me. The red one slapped me and called me “mijo.” Both were perfect.

Even the chips were next-level — crunchy, golden, and clearly not an afterthought. I would trust these chips with my secrets.

I’ve eaten in fancy restaurants that charged me $38 for a dish with the word “foam” in it — and I’d STILL choose this burrito 10 times out of 10.

So yeah, if you’re anywhere within a tank of gas from this place, go. Go now. Skip your meeting. Fake a flat tire. Tell your boss you’re chasing greatness — because you are.“

“The best Carnitas Burrito I've ever had! The pork had a smokey, roasted flavor and the tortilla was thin, flour, lard and warmed. Delish! Bring your Spanish, not much English is spoken = )“

“This restaurant not only serves the best food in Sarasota but the owner and staff are friend, efficient and helpful! It’s our go to place every time we come to Sarasota!“

“Quality of food. Life long member of the owners from Adrian Michigan. I don’t understand when I read comments as for “not authentic Mexican ingredients”. Does the sign not say “Tex-Mex”? In Adrian Michigan we have a large migrant population that prefers other Mexican restaurants over the grasshopper. Huge reason is that the taste buds of visiting Mexicans are used to hot, very hot. As I live here in Mexico I cannot sample any hot sauce because it’s too hot. So I bring my own hot sauce with me when I eat out. I don’t consider the menu as Tex Mex. The family founders brought recipes from Mexico but again, had to tone down the spicy seasoning for the northerners. HOWEVER, if you ask for the extra hot seasoning, they will make you a dishes that will set your mouth on fire upon request. I can’t explain the next topic, but that no one has complained but their menu prices that seem to never increase. As for the cheese dipping sauce? I haven’t been to the Sarasota location. But it’s a wise-tail in Adrian that the cook staff has to sign NDA’s just to know the recipe. Everyone has tried to replicate it but no one has ever gotten it correct. Linda/co-owner has been a lifelong full-time employee that worked every day beside her now ex husband that runs and operates the original Adrian Michigan establishment where his parents created the restaurant. She only hires the best staff and the staff are lifelong dedicated employees. In Adrian, no one visits for the decorations or environment because it’s nothing close to impressive, they visit for the food and service and the staff that brings you refills before knowing that you need one.“

“Loved The Hub! Best food and margaritas! And talk about service! Thank you, Tim, our new buddy from “up north” -you were a pleasure!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Really fresh and really tasty. Great stop if you're in the area.“

“We used Manny’s last night for a graduation party. Not only were the tacos and toppings delicious and fresh, the whole experience was super easy and professional. I would highly recommend using them for catering!“

“Crepes are amazing!!! Lobster and Shrimp!“

“We had fish tacos and guacamole/chips, white wine and a beer. Very fresh and tasty. Order your tacos and drinks at the counter and when your pager goes off, pick up your plates at the window. Easy. It wasn't busy and I enjoyed a relaxed visit with my lunch companion.“

“First time eating here! Amazing food and great waitress. The portions are great. The margaritas are great.“

“absolutely awesome food and very authentic. great customer service“

“I find myself stopping here periodically for lunch and never being disappointed by the crunch wrap! Def a must try. The service is manageable and location is ideal, located near many stores making it an easy stop for some quick food while out and about.“

“Food was great the store whatsoever understaffed. I felt bad for the sales, Clark.“

“The food is good. Employees are polite. Store is clean. From the time you place your order til you receive it is quick but as far as taco bell as a company.. trying to order from the screen you order from in store or the app is time consuming and frustrating. If your trying to eliminate human interaction with electronics, it would help if they worked.“

“This is a good service location. I believe he was a redhead with a beard at the window was super nice and really great. Deserves a raise. He really handles things under pressure and could see him running a location if not working somewhere more elevated. No offense, I love Taco Bell lol.“
