    Tacos

    The portion sizes are way too small considering the price. To my knowledge no promotion was being run on Tuesday, and yeah there was nothing to separate this from any other street taco place that usually marks their prices down to attract the taco Tuesday crowd. They're also charging for chips and salsa which come standard at a lot of other places.

    So if you're a picture person... I don't think my pictures will do this place justice. The restaurant is super cute: vibrant colors, clean, decor, and super friendly staff. BUT -- they sell the equivalent of street vendor tacos. Don't get me wrong... Their tacos are very good. But, they don't particularly look good. I ordered three tacos (hint... Taco Tuesday gives you a free taco when you buy two tacos). They have tons of different flavors, ranging from good old-fashioned pork, sausage, chicken, beef, even fish or shrimp, and most surprisingly even tongue if you're into that. The food is flavorful and reasonably priced. When you see how small a street taco is and you know you paid four dollars for it... That stings a little bit. I guess that's the standard price these days. So the moral of the story... Good food, great location, reasonable prices.

    They do a good job here of tacos and other things. Definitely worth a visit. We eat here frequently and the quality is consistent. Their prices have gone up, but so has everything else.

    Carne Asada

    The ambiance is great, very pink, kinda makes me feel like I'm entering the fair. The service was friendly and they were patient, since it was our first time we were trying to see which would be the best option, which took some time. I was hungry so I was looking for a good portion of food. $3.50 a taco seems a bit too high a price for a single taco. So I went with a carne asada bowl. I actually really liked my bowl. It was flavorful and very well balanced with protein and rice. However I can't help compare the price and quantity with Chipotle. The food was very tasty and perhaps the next time I go (when I'm not starving) I'll try the tacos and Quesadillas.

    One of our all-time favorite taco spots is this place! I've always loved the pastor tacos, but now they've added quesabirria and queso to the menu, making it even better. Even though we don't dine in often, it's still one of our top spots because it's so conveniently located when driving from St. Pete to Tampa. We order ToGo monthly if not more. Over the years, the original restaurant has expanded and added locations, but the neon pink decor and the recipes still remind me of 2014.

    Al Pastor Bowl

    This spot has a good variety of Mexican food. I ordered the bowl and although the toppings tasted fresh - the meat and rice could've been more seasoned. I'm a big fan of Mexican food and was expecting more flavor and variety of toppings on this bowl. The place was clean, had good Spanish music playing and plenty of parking. It's a cute spot but I think if I return I would come back for the tacos if they have some type of Taco Tuesday special. Tacos are $3.5-$4+ regularly which is a little much for the vibe of this establishment.

    Loli's is the go-to spot in South Tampa for Taco Tuesday. If you buy two tacos, you can get one free with chicken and pastor tacos. It is such a great deal for less than $8.00. It's the best! The food quality is deliciously superb and superior to any competition in the area. The works are very kind, courteous, and pay attention to you when you're speaking. Plenty of seating inside for the whole family and I always enjoy my time eating here. Absolutely love this restaurant and highly recommend a visit if you're nearby!

    This was a very happy rainy day find for lunch attached to the hotel lobby…read more We flew in and arrived at the Water Street Marriott just in time for the rain to start. Arriving hungry, we stopped in here. The decor was well out together with a various arrangement of seating options. They were out of topo chico so opted for a seltzer water. I ordered tacos and elotes both of which came out fast and or so good! My dining companion ordered the Tijuana salad with steak which was massive and came out with a perfectly cooked medium rare flank steak on too. The salad was exactly the Caesar salad twist I expected with the hand prepped original dressing and addition of the elotes on top. Definitely worth a try if you're craving mexican in the area.

Luckily, there are quite a few solid dining options at this property including Lona. When I saw that they had a modern Mexican menu and delicious sounding cocktails, I decided to grab a seat at the bar. The service was quick and the bartender was very friendly, offering suggestions on the menu when I asked. I started with the passion picante cocktail which was like a spicy passionfruit margarita made with Teremana tequila. For my entree, I got the quesabirria with the consommé dipping sauce and it was spectacular. It's only of the most popular dishes on their menu and I can see why. I also tried the cucumber mezcalita which was a great nightcap if you enjoy Mezcal. I was so stuffed after that, but I got a slice of the tres leches cake to-go. It's a gorgeous dessert and I ate it for breakfast the next morning. It was amazing!

    I made an OpenTable reservation for 7 pm thinking it would be busy on a Friday night, but the…read morerestaurant was basically empty. Despite the lack of a crowd the service was still slow! We were sat at a high top table and it took almost 20 minutes before our waiter came to the table. Another hostess actually came by with waters and apologized for the wait before our waiter came to take our order. My partner and I ordered the table side guac, 3 street tacos, and a steak enchilada. We also ordered a Pacifico beer and my partner got a passion fruit iced margarita (slushee). When the waiter brought the drinks it was a completely different margarita. My partner ordered the drink with tajin and the other margarita came out with salt. That was the first giveaway that this was about to be a bad experience. The table side guac was disappointing. I'd had it 4 years prior and was excited but it just didn't live up to how I remember it. He gave us the option for mild medium and spicy - we chose medium but it had no spice in it at all. We had to ask for more salt because it wasn't salty enough. The avocados were not ripe, and he didn't use any lime juice. And finally, towards the end of the meal I was chewing and part of the avocado peel was still in the guac. Quite an unpleasant surprise. The steak enchilada was okay. The steak was a little tough and I think the cheese on the enchilada was melted mozzarella - it was similar to pizza...as an enchilada... My partner thought the street tacos were okay but for the price point of $25, probably not worth the cost. All entrees come with beans and white rice - I needed to add salt to mine, but it was fine. The table seated behind us was very close to us and we could hear their entire conversation. The guy specifically said "I never eat the side of rice and beans here because it's not very good". The service was okay. Our waiter was very low energy and rather muted for an early Friday night. It's possible he had a long shift or a long day, so I'm willing to cut him some slack, but in the service industry, I think I'd appreciate a positive attitude. This dude clearly did not want to be on the clock. Finally, the restaurant didn't notify OpenTable that I arrived for my reservation so now I have to explain to OpenTable that I did actually attend and I wasn't a "no-show" for the reservation. Bit of a waste of my time. I came because I heard Westshore is closing and was hoping for a fun date night with my partner. I'm glad to know I'll never be going back and I probably shouldn't have tipped 20%.
