    Tacos - lengua
    Jay P.

    If you looking for great authentic food! This is the place. I've been wanting to try this place because it looks so legit. We did and it's the best ever. Now I'm sharing it! Just a local realtor supporting local businesses.

    Made me ill with violent GI issues within 15 mins of finishing.

    DO NOT EAT HERE YOU WILL GET VIOLENTLY ILL Update: it's been over a week since we dined there. And albeit this being TMI, it must be shared as this.... I'm on a med that causes me to have days of constipation. Within 10 mins of finishing my meal here, I had violent explosive diarrhea. I cleared my body in 15 mins something that I could NOT do when prepping for my colonoscopy. My friend who has a normal functioning body, she's STILL miserably sick. Going to the bathroom over 20x a day. Says she's lost 5lbs. A doc just put her on a liquid diet and attributed her illness to this restaurant. This is both scary & dangerous. I saw a review on Google where someone reported the same.

    Side of rice and beans.

    These were the best tacos I've had in the Tampa area, hands down! The meat had so much seasoning and flavor, every bite was like a culinary orgasm. I had the following tacos: steak, pastor, carnitas and fish. EVERYTHING was so good, but holy crap were the carnitas and fish tacos amazing. Also had a side of rice and beans (beans = amazing!) and guacamole (very good, but a little too much lime IMO). I can't wait to go back here.

    This authentic Mexican restaurant was clean inside and had some very friendly workers, which made it a worthwhile stop. The cóctel de camarones was good- but not great. You do get chips and salsa for free and the agua de piña was really good. Not quite 5 stars, but a solid 4.

    Yo e venido a este restaurante varias veces, pero hoy el servicio no estuvo bien y les tengo que decir. Yo ordené un burrito de desayuno con chorizo y huevo, le pedí al muchacho que me tomó la orden que quería los vegetales mezclados en el chorizo con huevo, que eran tomate, cebolla, y chile jalapeño. También ordené un café con leche. Al llegar a recoger mi orden, el muchacho Jesús me dijo que me había puesto aparte la lechuga, y el tomate y cebolla, lo único que llevaba el burrito era el jalapeño. Yo no lo pedí de esa manera. Le pregunté si tenía canela para mi café, y el no sabía, una señora salió de la cocina y dijo que tenían. Bueno le dije que quería un poquito en mi café. Cuando Jesús el que me tomó la orden preparó el café, párese que no sabía lo que estaba haciendo, le hecho la canela y luego le saco la canela poniendo la cuchara adentro del basurero. Ya cuando pague y tome mi orden , me fui y probé mi café, eso era literal pura leche con canela. No sabía nada a café, era pura leche y canela. Llame al restaurante para preguntar si le puso café y me dijo que si, y le expliqué que no sabía a café, ni se disculpó el muchacho. Al parecer, su empleado necesita más entrenamiento de su oficio, En como hacer el café y poner mejor atención a las órdenes. Gracias.

    4 stars for Nice restaurant with quick service. Clean. The lights were too bright for night time. Gave me a headache. Chicken is the best. Have to request queso fresco instead of the mozzarella they use.

    The desserts do not disappoint…read more We made a last-minute decision to come get dessert here after dinner. I want to say we arrived about 930, and found out that we were the last table they were going to accept. So make sure you double check what time they will take walk-ins for dessert. I feel like everyone knows this, but just in case the dessert room is all upstairs and each table is in its own private little room. We were right next to the piano player so we got to hear his playing. Otherwise, if you're a little farther away, then you can choose music in your room, but for us, his piano playing would've definitely drowned out. His piano playing was beautiful though, so I'm not complaining. You can pick up a phone and request songs, which we did. For dessert we got the peanut butter truffle and the vintage lush chocolate sundae. We switched out the ice cream in the sundae for the macadamia ice cream. Everything was super rich and delicious. You need to have a major sweet tooth to eat here, because the desserts were punch you in the face sweet. It is Valet only in Valet is eight dollars. They do let you tip with card, which is nice. Service here is fantastic and everyone is dressed to impressed. This is old school Tampa. So don't expect any modern decor. It's all dark woods and velvet feeling. This is definitely an experience that I think everybody would love.

The macadamia nut ice cream is hands down the best I've ever had--worth the visit all by itself! The peach cheesecake was also absolutely delicious. The service was warm, attentive, and impeccable. I loved the live piano player, and the vintage phone where you can call in a song request is such a fun, unique touch that makes the experience even more special. Every detail was thoughtfully curated. Perfection plus! I can't wait to come back.

    So happy we ran across this!…read more I always like to bring candy home when traveling and this has been the best mixed candy yet they have the Bubs candy and other popular Swedish/international candies! Little pricey but to be expected. Now the sundaes are insane! Watching them make it was pretty neat- they newly have a non-dairy strawberry which I felt went perfect with with Strawberry sundae that stood out to me! Mind you I can have dairy but my stomach definitely prefers less is better! LOL I did not try my friends brownie one but she really liked it. Honestly you can likely order the size mini because it really isn't so mini and perfect size to actually finish! My friend got the regular and had to toss likely the amount in difference between our two sizes because she was full and we had no way with our hotel room to freeze the leftovers. I'd definitely recommend.

My dad and I had a great time browsing the selection of international candies and ended up picking up a bunch of treats from countries like Sweden, Denmark, and Germany. It's always fun trying snacks and candies from different parts of the world and seeing how they compare to what we're used to. My personal favourite was the Raspberry Fizz bottle candies, which I believe are from Sweden. They were absolutely delicious and easily the standout candy from our haul. While we focused on the imported candy this visit, the ice cream, chocolate, and other desserts all looked incredible as well. Everything in the display cases looked tempting, so we'll definitely have to come back and try some of those next time. The staff were great too; kind, patient, and happy to help as we looked through all the different options. If you're visiting Sparkman Wharf and have a sweet tooth, this is absolutely worth a stop!

I went for a…read moreYelp event a while back, and it reminded me just how good their desserts are, so when my friend and I wanted dessert to finish off my birthday celebration, coming here was obvious. The women behind the counter were helpful and friendly. When I asked for opinions and suggestions, they had plenty based on my likes, and in no time at all, I had a warmed up incredibly rich and delicious Magic Toffee Bar in front of me. So crazy good, I could only eat 1/3 of it, but it made for a delightful treat the next day too. The description of it is as follows: buttery Graham cracker crust with milk, dark, and white chocolate chips, bits of toffee, and topped with coconut. I also highly recommend taking a treat or two from their samples jar. Their toffee is clearly the best in the world, and every bite is a treat. If you're looking for the perfect holiday gift - look no further than their toffee. They have their own parking lot, which is always a bonus in this part of town, and inside was clean and bright, with plenty of seating, and free glasses of water.
