Circo - Loving the apps, tacos and Jalapeño Margaritas!!! - Mexican Near Me - Sarasota, Florida

This place is completely underrated. Some of the tastiest cocktails in town and delicious moderately priced food.

In the entrance it said seat yourself! Yassss Found a table:it said scan menu and start ordering! Please and thank you! The easiest restaurant ever Severs were extremely helpful! Blackberry margarita was a little bit too sweet but it's because I don't get any sugar at all! Meatless taco salad was delicious Definitely a good quick easy meal read more

A very eclectic, artsy place that offers fun eats & bevies. The s'mores churros were a delightful surprise too. The tacos were great. The brunch tacos were fantastic. The service was fantastic. Good music, TV's were all on. They even have outdoor seating. A couple of birds came in and were chirping. We found that super cool. read more

Kristina was an amazing server!!! She had great recommendations and always had a smile on her face! The chips were very good, and it's a tapas type menu; you order each taco individually which is nice when wanting to try different things. It gets pricey quick so just be aware of that! read more

Best tacos in town!! You must try the Korean and Buffalo tacos. The marg jugs are also amazing! Will be back for sure

My wife and I, both in our late 70's and probably the elderly patrons, thoroughly enjoyed our Circo experience. John, our waiter, was superb with his attentiveness and cheerful attitude. Drinks were well-made. Food was delicious! I highly recommend Circo's for a destination. You'll be pleased. Terry read more

If you're looking for authentic street tacos/Mexican-- unfortunately I don't think you'll find it here I thought with all the great reviews-- that this place would be a hit. Quite the contrary. However, take my review with a grain of salt because i am a snob when it comes to Tex mex and my friend that I dined with is a Texan-- we have high standards. My friend ordered a watermelon Marg. It was good, just insanely sweet. So not something you'd want unless you like super sugary and syrup-y drinks. Then we ordered the queso fundido. This was the only thing I liked, but I wouldn't dare call it outstanding or great. It was bland compared to other quesos that I've eaten with chorizo in them. I got the huevos rancheros off the brunch menu and it was horrible. So horrible i didn't eat any of it. It was cold, the eggs tasted like they were from a box like cafeteria eggs, the corn was definitely from a can, and it was bland as can be. The "fried tortilla" looked like a prepackaged tostada you'd find from the grocery. It got soggy almost instantly. I don't think warm food is too much to ask for‍ My friend got the southwest bowl. Hers was a very small portion. She said it was bland. Nothing special. Like she could've made it at home. The only reason I give this place two stars is because our server was nice and the queso was alright. I'll definitely not be back. read more

Their attempt to differentiate themselves from other taco spots by pairing bourbon with tacos over the traditional tequila pairing is not enough where anyone would really choose Circo over other taco spots. I say this as a person who's preferred choice in spirits is Bourbon/Scotch/Whisky, in that order and I adore tequila. Do not come here if you are looking for authentic street tacos or even just traditional Mexican tacos at that. Their tacos are takes and twists on other fare and cuisines like Nashville's hot chicken, Korean food, etc. The service is trash, they are slow and the food is not amazing. One thing I must admit is that their Ahi Poke taco is spectacular. I returned for a 2nd visit specifically for those. Unfortunately, the service was bad again and the other items were still underwhelming. I asked for Mezcal upon arrival and the server replied "Who drinks mezcal". I ended up with their overly sweet, poorly mixed margarita in a jug. They would rather serve me that trash water than a proper mezcal cocktail like Kojo has on the menu. They do have a BOGO on tacos weekly, so it was a great way for my friends and me to try all of the tacos on the menu. Bottom line is, if great tacos are what you seek, go elsewhere. read more

Great tacos, unique options, nice environment with the decorations and lights! Music isn't too loud, still can talk and enjoy. Usually not too difficult to get a table or seat at the bar! read more

If I were only rating the food it would be 4-5 but I'm not. They offer tables that are "text orders only." When we asked how it worked (I am not 20 y/o) the server explained then walked away. She was less than helpful when I asked about beer options - menu said to ask server and the paper menu was unreadable. She was rude and dismissive. She did say we could sit at a full service table and we would have done so - if any were clean. They looked like they were intentionally left dirty so you would not sit there. It was a shame because the walking tacos were really good. read more

Circo, you lived up to our expectations! We've lived in Indiana for 30 years and our artisan taco spot is HARD to beat (Bakersfield you'll always have our heart) but Circo you for sure now have our business! For starters the service is TOP NOTCH! (One of my 4 stars NO DOUBT!) 3 stars for food (we did do carry out which hello, makes a huge difference in freshness let's be real!) The food is really good! It's good, don't get me wrong. However in the 6 different flavors we ordered we'd only have 3 of them be regulars. The Mongolian Beef, Korean Pork and Thai Shrimp were all on point! The homemade chips- the flavor is awesome! The texture though... holy thick!! My jaws hurt after gnawing on those. The salsa rojo- uhhhh, interestinnngggg. It didn't taste bad, it's possible I'm just not as cultured as some and prefer the less tomato paste texture. But it was a nice taste for my tired jaws Finally the margaritas! Completely totally 100%- $10 Tuesday's are thewaytogo very tasty, *slightly* strong. I have a low grade relaxed face after one. I mean, they're good. Not bad, and definitely on par for me to patron again no doubt about it! I'd probably rate them higher if I had 5 instead of one. My therapy is definitely more expensive but certainly more effective than this particular marg. Here's all the flavors we tried (photo labeled) with a scale of 1-5 of FLAVOR. Not necessarily our preferences but the tacos that had AMAZING FLAVOR (1: no flavor- 5: boom baby). Mongolian Beef: 5 Slow Roasted Angus: 4 The Cubano: 3 Korean Pork: 5 (nice spice) Fish + chips: 3 (the fish- amazing!!! The "chips" would have been better without). Thai Shrimp: 5 We will for sure be back! And I have no doubt dining IN will up our experience to those 5 stars! read more

Circo is a live and vibrant atmosphere! The bar scene is great if you're just looking for drinks. The range of bourbon appears to be of interest to visiting customers. Tacos and bourbon seem to be the attraction here. Some interesting margaritas are also available. I ordered some bourbon margaritas. They also have a Bro-Jito, Claw Rita, to mention a few.

I came to Circo to try their happy hour and we were extremely impressed. The poutine was amazing with a good portion, the chicken bites were delicious. We tried the verde and rojo salsa as well. Margs weren't sour or too sweet if you have a sensitive stomach like me. I tried the Mongolian beef, gringo, and shrimp, and I would recommend all of them to you! We're stuffed happy and will definitely be back! read more

On vacay in Sarasota & we stumbled upon this gem. Circo is a taco & bourbon bar, & the combination couldn't be any more perfect. We ordered chips & queso as an appetizer, chips were warm, & queso was creamy with tiny bit of spice. Perfect for those in our group not into the bam in your face spice. The ahi poke tacos are like two of my favorite things found each other, & are now living their best life. Chris, our server was knowledgeable & we appreciated his expertise, & the recommendation to try the churros. If you like unique tacos, a hippie vibe, & bourbon, this is your new go-to place in Sarasota. read more

Good food - but dont drink here Went for dinner. Service was fair, food was great, but drinks wre bad and way over priced.

Drink price 14.00....i ordered a margarita and upgraded my tequila from a blanco to a respasado. there was a 14.00 upcharge for the drink. so the margarita was 22.00..Thats just not right!!!!....i would recommend you get carry out and drink elsewhere. read more

Had a great meal with my co-workers. The Burris tacos were delicious and I can't recommend the Nashville Hot fried tofu taco strong enough. Great service from our lovely waitress Julia made our work lunch all the better. And don't forget to order the churros, I ordered the S'mores Chirros, they are covered in chocolate syrup, come with marshmallow fluff for dipping and are pure heaven. read more

Totally unimpressed. The bartender was sharp and knowledgeable. The service and food was fast and reasonably priced. But ... In the middle of a week day, after the lunch rush, why was the food bland and cold. I have never had chewy taco sheets like this. Small (really small) portions for the tacos. The apps were tasteless and below Taco Bell level. Lots of money spent on the look and feel of the place and a concerted effort to be fast ... but the over all impression was just Blah! Chips and Guacamole ... tasteless! Queso fun-dido .... Yuk. Melted velveta with no chips. Gringo Taco ... 6 out of 10. SW Chicken Taco ... 4 out of 10. Thai Shrimp Taco ... 4 out of 10. Cubano Taco ... 6 out of 10. Overall enjoyed an afternoon with my friends and some good bourbon but the only way I would go back is if I had a BOGO coupon and I was not hungry! read more
