So I think there are new owners so the name is now Say Taco instead of Sayulita. I have had Sayulita bookmarked since I moved to Ocala and finally made it! I was meeting friends for lunch. 2 of us are fairly new to Ocala so the other friend suggested here and I said yes immediately! I was unsure of what I wanted so I reviewed the menu for a while after sitting down. We decided to sit inside, at a high top. The bartender came around to greet us and serve us. He was very attentive. Although it was not super busy, they had a massive to go/ catering order so that took up some time in the kitchen. It's okay because we were catching up and in no rush to eat. I ordered a buffalo chicken taco and a side of street corn initially, which both were delicious. I was still hungry so I ordered another buffalo chicken taco. I ordered a burrito for my husband to go, which he said was delicious. We did not have alcohol but they have a full bar with plenty of specials. There is also a large patio outside, with plenty of seating. I will definitely be back! read more

Truly the best tacos I've ever had. We were on a roadtrip back to Orlando and stopped here for lunch. The staff was so nice and quick, the restaurant seems like a great place to hangout, and everything was delicious. 11/10 would highly recommend read more

Great Owners. Deep Cleaning, Fresh Faces, Fresh ingredients and Friendly Staff. Inside and Outside eating. Great place to sit back, have a beverage and get some tacos. They brought over part of their menu from one of their other restaurants as well. You can get Tex Mex and also some of there best items from other locations. Check out pics of menus but besides tacos, burritos and bowls you can get wings, burgers, sandwiches etc. They are bringing this location back and it's here to stay. This side of Downtown Ocala is where you want to be. All the new growth will be over here and Darren, Chris and all the staff will make sure this place will succeed. Thanks for saving this location. Be back soon. We are here early in its stage of a full opening. Can't wait to see this place start rocking again. Outside has space for live music, games and fresh air. See you all again real soon. read more

Was last at Sayulita Taqueria in August before the management/name change! Visited Say Taco tonight and we got the 2 tacos + 1 side for $10 deal, highly recommend! I got the 2 veggie tacos, the avocado one was great highly recommend. The squash/zucchini one was alright but not as much flavor so next time I'll get 2 avo ones! I got beans/rice side but next time Id probs get plantains! He got the birria taco and chicken/avo taco - the chicken/avo taco was extremely spicy and he has a high spice tolerance so beware! The passionfruit and mango margs were very reasonably priced at $7 each but we felt their potency was low and sweetness very high. Overall loved the outdoor seating which was the same as last time we were here. The atmosphere, music, and vibe is 10/10 and highly recommend this spot for a golden hour/dusk spot! Excited to come back!! read more

My wife and I visited here previously so as we continued our journey south we decided to stop by and enjoy a quick bite before getting back into I-75. We stopped in on $1 wing Wednesday and ordered garlic and parmesan wings, Philly cheesesteak, and a chicken and rice. The wings tasted good but they were not garlic and parm flavored. This did not stop me from eating them though! The cheesesteak was perfect as were the fries. The chicken and rice was returned and a new one was made because the chicken looked old and was very dry. There was no fuss or issues with the return but if this was a to-go order we would've been highly upset. Thankfully the service here is good so we had no issues as I stated previously. read more

This was the best service and food I have had in a long time. The staff is so attentive and helpful to guide you to a taste bud explosion. I had the Tex Mex was beyond yummy and authentic. My father had the Carolina, he said it was tasty and slightly spicy. My husband had the fajita chicken and steak they were amazing. We had the plantain side so good and and appetizers of chips with trio out of control. A hidden gem!!! read more

This restaurant has recently changed owners and they have remodeled the place. On Tuesdays they take $1 off all the tacos. I stopped in and got the taco of the month which was a lamb taco with that Greek sauce I can't spell!! I also got the trio of dips with chips. All of it was very tasty. The workers were very friendly. read more

What a great little find in downtown Ocala! I needed a spot that was walking distance from the Hilton Garden Inn where we were staying and that also had vegan options, and this was the spot that hit all the marks. The outside is simple and unassuming, but the inside is cute and trendy with a nice outdoor patio as well. Food and service were great. Would definitely come back! read more

the food is wonderful, kudos to the kitchen staff but that is where it ends. the manager and waitress were not. I travel over 2 hours to meet my friend every few months. we have lunch and I bring home dinner for my family. they are excited because the food is great. my friend and I each placed to go orders of a dozen tacos, each order completely different. I get home and it is not my order, I asked the waitress who assured me they were correct. my friend called to tell them of the mix up and so did I. I don't mean to be petty but the total of the order with tip was $50. I expect it to be right. the manager told me she would send me a voucher for a dozen tacos but it was never sent. that is lousy business and I do not recommend this establishmen. read more

I was in Ocala getting my car serviced and decided to grab a bite to go. This place is located in Downtown Ocala and hidden but a gem. I have read so many reviews on the tacos and the variety and I needed to check them out. When walking into the Sayulita, it's a cool, chill atmosphere. They have their menu blown up on the wall as you wait in the line to glance over. Based on the reviews - the Korean taco was a must try, so I decided on the Korean, the shrimp, and the fresh catch tacos. Looking over their daily special menu was an eye catcher that would definitely bring me back in from mojito Mondays to all day happy hour on Thursdays. Ordering my meal to go was a breeze and I patiently waited for about 10 minutes before my food was brought out to me. Since they were out of blue corn tortilla, I order all of my tacos on homemade corn. Starting with the Korean taco, this was definitely my favorite. The sweetness mixed with that kick of heat was a nice touch and I looked at the taco twice like wow. The bite from the coleslaw was a nice crunch factor into the taco since they were falling apart from the homemade tortilla. The shrimp was good as well, as it came with a boom boom sauce - I would say similar to bang bang sauce. The shrimp was nice and juicy and the pickled cabbage gave it a nice twang. Lastly, the fresh catch which was a crispy white fish - and crisped very nicely. It was topped with the pickled cabbage, mayo, and avocado. This was good but I wish it was blackened to give more of a baja taste. However, my meal was very good and also the prices here are super affordable - each taco was under $5. I really want to go back so I can have a full dine in experience where I can grab a drink and a sweet treat to end with. If you're in the Ocala area looking for chill ambience but great flavor, check out Sayulita Taqueria. read more

Good food and service! So happy they changed hands of ownership! The Ambiance is awesome.

Not sure what happened but since they rejoined DoorDash, the portions of the food and quality of the corn tortilla shells have gone down. The last time I ordered my taco fell apart before I could take a bite and the queso portion is too small for the amount of chips. read more

this place use to be good. i use to get eth Cowboy it was awesome. No it is horrible, I put it in th trash, I could not even eat it. We order for 10 people for work. We had to call in another order at a different Restuarant. No one would eat the food. The street could tasted like the chesses was bad. please do not go there. read more

Cool little taco joint in downtown Ocala Bobby B & I decided to give them a try for lunch during a trip to Santos MTB trails. We chose to eat outside in their ample courtyard. There was an Airstream for decoration, so I'm guessing this may have been form their earlier days as a food truck. The tacos had an amazing flavor, but I wasn't a fan of the corn tortillas. They were very tasty, but didn't hold together - one bite and they collapsed. Using a fork & knife for tacos may be a plus to some, but not me :) This would have been a 4 star review, but after reading other reviews about service - I did some checking.... We were there in a Tuesday and 3 of their featured tacos were supposed to be $2 (I didn't know this when ordering & paid after we ordered). We were charged full price. It's not a big deal - but was disappointing. read more

I saw a video about Sayulita on tik tok and realized it was about 2 blocks from my hotel. I walked over to grab a quick lunch. You order at the counter before seating yourself. The employee was friendly and my food was ready quickly. I started with the guacamole and chips. It's a large portion that I took over 1/2 back to my hotel. The flavor was ok but I added some hot sauce and would have preferred more veggies in it (onions, peppers, etc). For ny taxis I dejected the cowboy (steak, bacon, cojita cheese and cilantro) and the shrimp (pickled cabbage, boom boom sauce and cilantro). These are street taco size so if you're hungry you may need more than 2. However, with the large guac I was full after 2. The shrimp was great. The shrimp are fried and the cabbage is a perfect balance with the spice in the boom boom sauce. The cowboy was a bit salty and I didn't taste any bacon. It's a good place for a quick bite and I'll probably come back to try some of the other taco options. read more

Stopped in for drinks after going to a lunch spot with horrible drinks... this place did not disappoint! While I can't comment on the food yet ( I will be going back to try it though) I can tell you that the margaritas are delicious and you can not beat the price. $3 for a margarita! A bartender was also very attentive and friendly. The building itself is old but I think it gave it character read more

I'm not saying that the food was bad, my pallet just doesn't want to be friends with these particular tastes. I thought it would be fun one night to order a smorgasbord of different tacos ( I mean really what could go wrong with TACOS ... duh) Sooo... lesson learned, a lot could go wrong. 9 tacos costing $50...... ouch. And then tacos with purple sauerkraut?!!?? DONE. This particular location is dead center downtown area. So parking will very much depend on day, time, occasion .... Inside seating can go by in a flash, so if you plan to have a little fiesta , call ahead and have them make it happen! And big fiestas go somewhere else period. read more

New ownership, big improvements. Gina was great. Excellent service. I can't wait to see it in a few months.

Say Taco - Birria Taco with strawberry Margarita - Mexican Near Me - Ocala, Florida

We went for a Thursday night out with friends. It was a beautiful night and their are picnic tables outside to eat at under twinkling lights. The menu is diverse and we all got a wide variety of foods and shared so we could try all sorts of things. Everything was so flavorful and the drinks were just delicious. Like everywhere right now, the service staff was limited but they were running to make the very best of it. It was greatly appreciated! The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars was that we all left knowing that we would be chugging water because everything was over salted. read more

I reaaaally wanted to give this place 5 stars. I usually go on $2 Taco Tuesday. There is obviously a difference in who is cooking the food. The queso is ALWAYS disgusting. It tastes like flour..and you can even see lumps. I can make better queso from scratch at home. The tacos.. sometimes they're authentic and super delicious. Other times they taste like white people tacos.. no flavor and thrown together. The elote and plátanos are always great, never a miss. I love the fact that you can sit outside while eating.. the view is super cute. Overall this place isn't bad.. they just need to replace whoever is cooking the tacos that taste like shit. read more

Beautiful day, beautiful patio,overly blaring music making it hard to visit with friends, good wait staff, small portion in my rice bowl, just an okay experience. The most disappointing thing was the various temperatures of the ingredients. The bottom layer, white, unseasoned rice was about room temperature, the black beans warm, chicken a little of both, nothing consistent. There was a soft cheese but not enough to be noticed. Always have done nachos or tacos here...think I'll stick to them ! read more

Downright the best taco we've ever had, despite coming from Cali where there's abundant authentic taco !!! Our party of 5 had 7 different kind of tacos and every one of them was a hit - Each had its own distinct flavor and so delicious!! After 2 attempts with 1/2 hr wait from other restaurants down the street, we walked in by chance. Service was fast and no wait. Cute, quiet and amazing food, what can you ask for more? Highly recommend!!!! read more

Visiting from out of town. I had the veggie burrito and it was super tasty. The chips and salsa were good. But it is pico de gallo and not actual salsa. So keep that in mind. The place is super cute but we were the only table in there. So that wasn't wonderful but the food was really good overall. Service was great! read more

Super cool spot. Fun, chill vibes. I had the brisket, steak, and fresh catch of the day tacos. I also had the fries with corn and cilantro (delicious!). Margaritas and sangria were freshly made. The outdoor area in the back was a great use of space and made for a fun/chill ambiance. The oversized connect 4 stations completed the touch. Service was helpful with recommendations and knowledgeable of the area to give recommendations for after a bite to eat. Highly recommend. read more
