7 Best Tex-Mex Restaurants near Sarasota

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

“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.“

“Gooooooooooooooooooooooood“

“I’ve only eaten here once when traveling with my boyfriend and my in laws to visit their family down here in Florida and we came here that night and I absolutely loved the Birria Tacos, the prices are great, and the atmosphere is very aesthetically pleasing and clean!! I would totally come here again next time I’m in Florida“

“Good food, good service. Clean restaurant, yummy food, family friendly. Reasonable prices.“

“The atmosphere, food and service was excellent. I would go back again.“

“Excellent!! I have been wanting to try this place for a while now, and so glad that I stopped in today! I read a lot of reviews - and I think it’s a given that when someone has a negative experience they are going to tell the world, but people need to get better about sharing positive experiences.

I got the taco salad bowl and it was perfect. The bag of chips on the side were delicious too! The two guys I encountered inside were super nice and friendly.

I will definitely be going back to Tijuana Flats!“
