41 Best Taco Restaurants in Tampa

“Super clean truck, with nicely shaded small patio/tables to enjoy some of the best tacos I've had in years! The freshly made corn tortillas were outstanding. The guy taking orders was super sweet. My Diet Coke was ice cold...an added bonus!“

“Acabo de comer en el restaurante mejicano de Guy Fieri, el famoso chef. No le llega ni a los tobillos a Comparres. Lo garantizo!“

“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.“

“food was perfect customer service was also great“

“todo esta muy rico,hay de donde escojer ,y todo con sabor y buenos precios“

“Honestly I love Bull Market! They are a great local family run option. I love their endless selection to mix and match for a unique bowl every time. You can't go wrong with their yam noodles and sweet potato mash! I usually order to go but every once in a while I will dine in, which is a nice change of pace because their interior is relaxing with dim lights and feels bodega-ish. Highly recommend!Dietary restrictions: Gluten free options“

“Ones of the best spots I've had in Florida coming from southern Cali, says a lot. Fresh, yummy, clean & quick. Wish I could've snapped a pic but I ate too quick. Talked with someone, maybe the owner? Anyways super nice and remembered my friend who had only been a few times. Definitely recommend!“

“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“

“Amazing food! Very friendly also.“

“I've been a loyal customer at Los Chapos since they opened their Ybor location and frequent the food truck in Lutz close to my job. If you're familiar with the Tampa area, you know that the long line of cars on that side of 7th speaks volumes about the quality here.Last Friday, I was unfortunately in an accident on my way to pick up a pre-ordered meal before closing time. Once things settled down, I remembered to call Los Chapos and explain the situation. To my relief, they were incredibly understanding and assured me that I could get my original order at no charge once I was feeling better. They even extended an invitation for me and my family to their Cinco de Mayo event.A couple of days later, I managed to visit the restaurant, and true to their word, they welcomed me with a warm hug from the manager and my order, complete with a large horchata. The food, as always, was fresh, flavorful, right down to the jalapeño on the side. I'm immensely grateful for their kindness amidst the chaos and will continue to support and recommend this wonderful business.“

“My wife, daughters and I went for lunch. It was excellent! I highly recommend..... we all got something different, but it was all excellent!“

“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!“

“Comida fresca del día muy buena atención al cliente“

“Birria Taco Heaven! Inside this retrofitted Circle K is a delightful Birria Taco Masterpiece. The staff is delightful and you can tell they love what they do. The portions are as generous as the flavors. So glad we found this spot and you will be too!“

“The owner is kind and helpful. The food is amazing! And prices are great! Portions are good to! I had the Al pastor burrito! Guac is automatically included inside with no up charge. And I tried a fried plantain desert that comes with a sweetened condensed milk sauce ? the whole thing will probably be 3 meals for me. The burrito was $9 and dessert $3.“

“Empanadas filled differently. 4pk/$25($7ea. hey, it's Armature Works). Fresh Prince: take on a Philly. Buffalo Soldier 2.0: buffalo chicken. Cheeseburger in Paradise: as advertised. Tampa Girl: a Cuban in an empanada. All delicious. Taste like they were baked or air fried. Thank God, because the insides were pretty gooey with cheese ?. Cute baking mold with the names. There's tacos, too. I hear it's another great transition from a food truck. If you're trying not to have a full meal, most of the places in AW don't help, even the smaller kiosks seemed geared to larger(and pricier) offerings. See my review of AW.“

“Very very good. Excellent service!!! Wings were fantastic“

“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%.“

“We had a great lunch this afternoon. It was our first visit. We had the steak and chicken bowls. They were fantastic! Great food and reasonably priced. My daughter also enjoyed her order of churros. Felicia our server was very friendly and pleasant. We look forward to returning in the near future.“

“Best baleadas! Lovely people and fast“

“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. ???“

“yummy carnita bowl. highly suggest!“

“Without a doubt the best tacos in the city. I'm a fan of tacos, I've been to many and none of them match the quality, flavor, and service of this place! And the people who serve you can tell what great human beings they are! I think it is a family business and it is really worth supporting them because they are the best!“

“They just opened up a new one on the corner of 21st St. and sligh Avenue excellent service Bangin tacos the extreme shrimp taco very good“

“Few things satiate hunger like El Borracho after 5 hours of intense pickle ball. Brady may be considered the GOAT, but he ain’t got nothin on Patricia, the taco GOAT. If you’re looking for fresh, authentic, and delicious food, look no further than El Borracho. Screw Taco Bell, support local??Dietary restrictions: Dairy free“

“El Nopal, has the best tacos in town they are always fresh, and delicious so if you like tacos you owe it to yourself to try their tacos and I promise you'll be back!“

“I have been a fan of this family since i moved to tampa back in 2011. They had a spot on armenia and i used to go everyday. They moved closer to my job and now i go at least 3 times a week. Their food is delish and cooked with love and they are always friendly and kind and happy. My kind of place. Ill be a loyal customer for ever =)“

“Didn't even see this place when I first passed .had to do a quick search of the area for some good food near me literally a 2 minute walk for a quick bite to eat. Tried the lunch burrito and was not disappointed! The right size for a great price and a diet coke on the side. Will be back for more authentic flavors.“

“This is not so much a taco restaurant but instead it's a bowl shop. They put together delicious bowls with a good selection of toppings, proteins and base stuffYou select your base (rice, greens, etc.), then your protein, then toppings.There's plenty of seating both inside and outside.There is a self-serve beverage station.“

“This is one of the best burritos I’ve ever had and it’s out of a food truck at a gas station. We were at the Elder Ford and told them we have to leave food and they said what would you like, we said mom and pop they said what about tacos we said yes and glad we did, it was amazing highly recommended!Parking: It’s at a gas stationKid-friendliness: Kids are allowed!“

“I was craving street tacos all of a sudden and decided to venture out to this unassuming little stand in a grocery store's parking lot on Fletcher after seeing promising photos on Google maps. Very glad I made the decision- the tacos are freshly made with home made tortilla shell. I ordered pastor, tripa and lengua, all were really solid. I feel like the tacos here were better than some of the famous taco stands I've encountered in Los Angeles. The lady working in the stand was very friendly. The tacos were freshly made (the tortillas were hot when I got them!). In terms of seating there is a roofed area with plastic table and chairs. Parking is plentiful since it is located in a grocery store parking lot. I am very glad I found this little gem near USF“

“Me gusta mucho es trankilo ocserbado por los dueños buena atención música al gusto del cliente bebidas bien frías muchachas para la buena atencion seguridad privada pera muchas personas les gusta red international Discotec“

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

“Tacos las californias has hands down the best carne asada nachos in Tampa. They're perfect. Freshly fried tortilla chips, guacamole, flavorful meat, and all the fixings you could want. They don't skimp on ingredients or flavor. I would have posted a photo, but they didn't last that long. Just order them!!“

“We are locals and come here pretty often. We had to leave a review because our customer service was amazing! We met Nathan and he went above and beyond helping us! Thanks to him our group had a great night! Definitely will be coming back very soon! Thanks again!“

“Very delicious food my first time definitely not my last time there I was very impressed“

“We had the $6 (3) taco special with a choice of steak, pork, or chicken. All three were phenomenal.Excellent customer service, the place is very clean, I tried the bacon cheeseburger last week and it was great, the burger was a half pound and very fresh and definitely not frozen patties, had a very delicious char, a lot of good bacon also charred slightly in the most delicious way, on a grilled potato bun with lettuce, tomato, pickle, onion, special sauce, cheese, and a side of crispy fries.Everything is well priced, great quality, and delicious.“

“Chill atmosphere with great authentic tacos. Love the outdoor seating that gives it a Tampa/Ybor vibe. Birria tacos are my go to and they never miss!“

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

“I'm from Los Angeles. Admittedly I am a taco snob.Let me just say, after living here for over a decade I gave up my search for authentic Mexican food.I am absolutely floored and will be coming back every time I am in the area.Holy smokes guys, fantastic flavors.“

“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.“
