“Ethan and Alexa made our birthday celebration memorable with their service and attention to detail.“

“Excellent service very friendly. Very good food. I have no complaints about the place and its services. Supporting small places in these times of pandemic is the best thing we can do to shape the economy so they don't have to close their doors. Negative people go ahead and keep buying burgers and fries. Have compassion on the merchants and people who put all their effort and money to be able to have their store open, in this Pandemic. By a client with Cholera. It does not determine neither the food nor the place and its service by the hundreds that we like about this place to eat. Excelente servicio muy amable. Muy buena comida. No tengo ninguna queja sobre el lugar y sus servicios. Apoyar a los lugares pequeños en estos tiempos de pandemia es lo mejor que podemos hacer para dar forma a la economía para que no tengan que cerrar sus puertas. Las personas negativas siguen adelante y siguen comprando hamburguesas y papas fritas. Ten compasión de los comerciantes y personas que pusieron todo su esfuerzo y dinero para poder tener su tienda abierta, en esta Pandemia. Por un cliente con cólera. No determina ni la comida ni el lugar y su servicio por los cientos que nos gustan de este lugar para comer.“

“I just happened to stumble upon you guys and hands down best Mexican I’ve ever had. The chips are like no other. We even drive back from Bradenton just to eat here again while my sister is in town. The best!“

“Best tacos we've ever had. Great, friendly service. A must stop while in Ybor. Highly recommend.“

“Taco stand I pass by every day after work. I've been wanting to stop in for a couple of weeks but the timing wasn't right. Today though.... Yummy! Laura tacos - yep, that's the name of the food truck here in Tampa. One of those little places you could easily not know about..... the convenience store it's next to is nothing pretty to look at but their tacos and their other food too is really quite delicious. 6 bucks, two tacos. Is across from the North Tampa Branch library off of Busch and North Boulevard, right near Chamberlain high School (just posted this on Facebook).“

“One of my top favorite spots to eat for lunch. But recently someone else has taken over and named it big mikes tacos. I miss nachos tacos with that being said. Big mikes tacos isn’t bad just not as delicious as nachos and I’m unsure where the location in Tampa have went.“

“Clean, quick service, and flavorful food!

The cashier was very personable! He suggested some great options and clearly explained what some of the differences were between their beef options. Many different protein options to choose from. There were even some snack (candy and chip items for purchase near check out). So excited to return to try other menu items!“

“Great service and good food I love how they have games there during your wait of the food, I ended up dining in due to the positive atmosphere will be back soon to try other options.“

“Delicious tacos 🌮 and margaritas 🍹!“

“yummy carnita bowl. highly suggest!“

“Don’t judge this book by its cover! The food is great; I, specifically, recommend the breakfast burritos. Delicious and they open at 7a!! We will definitely be going back to try more of their menu. The building and interior are dated but, I promise, it’s a hidden gem!“

“Incredible, made to order food! Highly recommend!“

“A humble fast casual restaurant with really nice staff and the best chicken quesadilla I've ever had! This is no Americanized menu. There are tacos, quesadillas, sopes, and tamales, and each one looks better than the last. You can even have a bowl! The tortilla was crispy, the mozzarella cheese was generous, and the chicken was delicious! The chicken was chopped into small pieces, sauteed in something incredible, and had fresh cilantro sprinkled on top. Whenever I'm close by, I'll be eating here and trying their sopes next!“

“Just absolutely delicious food. I love the Carne Asado and the Carnitas. I just can't help but return over and over.“

“Without a doubt the best place for a delicious dinner in Tampa. Everything is delicious!! I ordered asada tacos, I also enjoyed a birria and a chorizo ​​quesadillas. The pineapple water was very delicious and fresh. All very delicious, I recommend it. And I hope to return soon.“

“Absolutely the BEST tacos! Can’t wait to go back! Quick to get the food, quality was very good and taste was amazing! We went yesterday and I’m already wanting to go back ASAP.“

“Met a colleague for a quick lunch here, & it was a wonderful experience! I had the BLT, potato salad, & I took a chocolate chip cookie home… the BLT was perfect. The potato salad was so flavorful. AND THE COOKIE?!?! The best I’ve ever had. I’ll definitely return… asap. ???“

“Stopped by this taco stand last weekend. Ordered 3 tacos - 2 chicken, 1 shredded beef. Tacos served with 2 salsas, a lime wedge, radish, and cucumber slices. The beef was not shredded, more like chopped, delicious nonetheless. Chicken was better than beef in my opinion. The salsas are SO GOOD! Just under $13 for 3 tacos & a bottle of Coke.“

“I love this place! I always get the tacos and the churros.“

“Comida deliciosa! La Torta de Asada y la Agua de Limon que ni se diga! Llevamos desde Enero ordenando de ahi y todo sigue igual de Delicioso. Lo unico que pensamos que ocupan es una salsa más picosa, ya hemos probado la verde y roja y están igual no pican. Y como muchos mexicanos son como mi esposo que no comen agusto si no pica, sería mi única recomendación por que aparte de eso todo delicioso! Y los recomendó al 100%.“

“Stopped by for drinks, they were delicious. Great atmosphere, friendly crew working the bar. Will definitely stop by again for lunch. Menu looked great, prices were even better. *****“

“Great food, great prices && most of all great service“

“The food is very good, everything served hot, I'm picky about taco trucks if they serve bagged tortillas but the tortillas used in these tacos is freshly made corn tortillas, maybe not handmade but you can taste it in each taco, not stale or old, the tacos and food was hot. The sopes are handmade and fresh. They have great customer service, very clean, the only thing to pick on is their salsas. The salsas could use a little more flavor, but overall, I recommend this place and will likely return if I'm in the area. Definitely worth their price.“

“I’m never even someone who leaves reviews but I have to.

I’ve been coming here for probably 4-5 years at this point; I’m definitely a taco connoisseur, a tampa native & I think i have tried almost every taco place in Tampa. Time & time again, NOTHING comes even slightly close to the flavor & authenticity that this place brings!

I’ve always wanted to gatekeep it to myself so that the prices don’t surge or they change anything up ? but they deserve everything in the world and then some. These are literally the best tacos I’ve ever had in my life and I will continue to come here for as long as I live in Tampa or as long as they let me ??? plus the owner works so hard, it is very admirable. & I don’t even think he knows they sell the best tacos ever haha the flavor will keep me coming back every time.“

“Best burritos and tacos in the tampa Bay Area highly recommend them.“

“We went last night and the food and drinks were delicious! Street Corn Queso - 8/10: Flavors were delicious, a tad salty Brisket Nachos - 9/10: That meat was so tender! Gaucho Bowl - 100/10 - Even though it was overcooked the first time, when they brought it back I took my time to savor every bite. The flavors exploded in my mouth like fireworks. Tacos - Our table ordered some of each different taco, except the grouper. Favorites were the Hot Honey Chicken, Simple Chicken, Umami Steak, Double Barrel Brisket, and Wagyu Cheeseburger. We didn't care for the hibiscus tortilla. But the flavors combinations were out of this world. Drinks - Strawberry Rubarb Margarita 10/10 Pineapple Jalapeño 9/10 Mango Margarita 10/10 Traditional 9/10 Peaches - 6/10 (Tasted like a traditional with no hint of other flavors) Our server, Kayley (spelling?) was great. Very knowledgeable and apologized for the wait, as it took awhile for drinks. We absolutely enjoyed it and will definitely be back. We talked about the food during the ride home and then back at the house and again this morning! The flavors were outstanding.“

“Super cool place atmosphere nice bartenders attentive“

“Got here at 9:55pm on a Thursday evening after a long travel day; I figured the restaurant would tell me that they cannot accommodate my party of 6 since it was basically closing time, but the employees did everything to make it an amazing experience. They took everyone's order, brought the food out promptly, and never rushed us to finish our meals, even as we finished up around 10:30pm, which was 30 minutes after their closing time. This is a regular stop for me whenever I am in the Tampa or Miami area, and this is just another reason why. Great service and great food!“

“recomiendo comer en los comparres de todo“

“People are finally the food is delicious“

“This place is amazing love the food and very friendly staff!! Go there if you never had authentic tacos !“

“Hi guys, this is Jeffrey. I thought I’d write a review on The Tijuanas at Fowler Ave. I wanted to say that I have been attending Tijuana Flats since 2004 - Present. Also they were I believe just becoming popular. Let me tell you this….the place is off the chain with service and excellence in prices menu options, cleanliness music lights and so much fun. It’s like a Disney World almost lol. Great Food awesome service and really feels great indoors bc of the cool temp AC on a hot day esp. Highly recommend Wesley Chapel but First and Foremost the Fowler Avenue location because the staff and comfort of the welcoming and inviting atmosphere is unmatched and second to none. My fav place to go for any meal hands down. Thank you Lad’s and Ladies for making my Tijuanas Experience unlike any other Restaurant Experience ever. ❤️❤️👍👍🙌🙌“

“Los Chapós Tacos is a top-tier spot for anyone craving authentic and flavorful Mexican cuisine. Every dish I tried was phenomenal, from the perfectly seasoned tacos to the hearty and delicious steak bowl. Their mango drink was a refreshing highlight, bursting with tropical sweetness that paired beautifully with the bold flavors of the food. The service was excellent, with friendly staff who made the experience even better, and the vibrant ambiance added to the restaurant’s charm. Highly recommended for anyone looking for amazing Mexican food that hits all the right notes!“

“Reminds me of hole in the walls in San Diego. Fries could’ve been crispier but I’m happy with the Cali B and plan to come back“

“We live more than an hour away. Got there about 30 min before they closed. (Felt awful hate doing that to restaurants). They were so kind about it. The food was amazing like really amazing. We are vegan and having a taco place this amazing is a blessing we will definitely be back just will make sure to get there earlier. Recommend this place highly.“

“It was very flavorful and the big outdoor games they have to play kept our son entertained while waiting :) Highly reccomend.

Vegetarian options: Anything can be ordered meatless

Kid-friendliness: Outdoor games (jenga, connect four, ring toss, and corn hole)

Parking: They have a parking lot in the back“
