Absolutely the best tacos I’ve ever had, tonight was there soft opening and they killed it they were the most authentic tacos I’ve ever had. Absolutely amazing food the tortillas brought back memories from back home. The steak tacos where fire. The fact that they use coal to cook everything is great, it puts them on top of the competition. Just the little things they did with there food really impressed me. The carnita tacos with the Chicharrón pieces just dammmmm!!!!! The crunch blew my mind. The shrimp tostada was to die for omg just take my money. Ohh I can’t forget the aguas frescas just angelic the pineapple and the passion fruit juice you think you where drinking it straight from the fruit. This place is absolutely the best bang for your buck the whole vibe of the place makes you forget that you are in Tampa and right there in Mexico. All I have to say is that I will be back again and again because this place has my heart. If your a foodie definitely try them out you won’t be disappointed.

Great atmosphere, great vibes, and great food. The service was superb and the salsa was awesome. I’m pretty picky when it comes to Mexican food, but this place definitely impressed me. It’s right across from my church, so I’ll definitely be encouraging people to come check it out!

So delicious. Really spacious spot, outside seating only (I think), but covered with fans for a very nice atmosphere. Food was absolutely incredible and well priced. Got esquites, burrito (bigger than my hand), and churros. Can’t wait to come back. Plus it’s right next to Blooming Floral so you can’t go wrong.

What a gem of a spot! Their passion fruit agua fresca was super fresh. Their barbacoa, gobernador, and carnitas tacos were incredible and so much meat. Food was well priced for all you receive, service was amazing, and they seem like lovely people. Can’t wait to come back!

Came in earlier and tried the Gobernador, Chorizo Argentino, and Arrachera tacos with a pineapple juice everything was flavorful.
The Gobernador was rich and well-balanced, the Chorizo Argentino had a bold, savory bite, and the Arrachera was tender, juicy, and a little smoky. The pineapple juice was fresh and really tied it all together. Great food and portions! Definitely coming back.

These are one of the most flavorful tacos in Tampa! All of the meats are incredible and the tortillas are house made. The service was so attentive and charismatic. The decor is so charming and unique. You can tell they care about what they are doing. This place needs to be on your list!

Frankly I would be amazed if they can sustain this quality of food at these prices!
The steak taco was phenomenal and the chicken burrito as well. Their chips have a nice crisp compromise between thin and over-cooked. Salsa and guacamole are also great.
I would only say, keep hiring more servers, as you are going to need them!! I live 1.5 blocks away and plan to live up here now as my second home.
