Excelente! The street tacos here are some of the best in the Tampa Bay area! As someone noted, don't let the seedy gas station parking lot deceive or dissuade you from trying it. The owners are a local family in the community and take pride in their service and food. If you're a taco lover like I am, you will NOT be disappointed!

Shrimp tacos. So good!!

Do not let looks deceive. This is a permanent food truck in the corner of a gas station parking lot, but they're some of the best tacos I've had in Tampa. I lived in the southwest eating authentic Mexican tacos and have been on the prowl here. I've found a couple places with good tacos and this place is one. The team in the truck works really quickly to get your food out and it's delicious. Horchata is great- not too sweet as it sometimes can be. We ordered to go flautas, tacos: lengths, shrimp, chorizo and carnitas and they were all stellar. A little higher on the price than other places I've been, but the size of the tacos and how they STUFF them with fillings is definitely worth it. They've even got a cute little patio setup if you want to eat on site- which you might because they're super good.

Best place to get Birria tacos from. The flavor is immaculate, definitely not disappointing! Customer service was good as well, the employee was super helpful! 10/10 try again.

Best tacos I've had in tampa. Delicious, juicy and made fresh. We went 2 days in a row. Best Al Pastor I've ever had. I added cheese and avocado. The staff was very friendly and I will be back next time we're in the area

Taco truck in the gas station parking lot. Has some outdoor, covered seating. Good quality Mexican food, not the cheapest but certainly beats out miguelitos up the block, in my opinion.

Lamb barbacoa, carnitas, asada tacos. The red sauce is so good! Both are spicy.

This food truck is right next to a gas station on Kennedy. It's a bit hidden off to the side so it's easy to pass by it without seeing it. The lady at the window was super nice and helpful. We had the lamb barbacoa, carnitas and asada tacos. Most places where I've had barbacoa it's been made with beef, so I was pleasantly surprised when she told us about the lamb option. The lamb is fatty but this was the favorite taco out of the three we had. They're very generous with their meats and the tortillas are good. The tacos are served simply with cilantro and onions, plus a green and red sauce on the side. Both sauces are spicy but the red was my favorite by far.

Tacos el Barracha might look questionable - located in a gas station parking lot, tucked away. But, please give it a chance! The food is fantastic! The staff is so pleasant to talk to and happy to get you whatever you want. The food comes out fast and delicious. Portions are large and very filling. Definitely try the chips - they are made fresh and the best I've ever had! This is definitely one of those places you have to go to if you like legit tacos!

Best tacos period. It's a food truck in a gas station parking lot- picnic tables behind it- amazing authentic tacos. Will go again and again

Buffalo cauliflower taco was fresh and crispy. Potato taquitos were like the potato tacos you get out west soft on the inside like mashed potatoes and crispy on the outside.

When we arrived, a staff member greeted us and explained that we order at the counter before sitting. and then grab our drinks, which was simple enough. The prices were very reasonable, which was a plus. We started with chips and queso. unfortunately, I found the queso a bit too salty for my taste. I ordered a beer while my nephew stuck with water, which is self-serve from a fountain using foam cups. For our entrees, I ordered the Xtreme burrito with shredded chicken, rice, refried beans, and shredded cabbage. It initially came out with the wrong beans, but the staff fixed it quickly without any issues. The portion size was very generous. I couldn't even finish it and overall it had good flavor. My nephew ordered the chimichanga and said he enjoyed it. Overall, it's a decent spot if you're looking for affordable Mexican food. Not perfect, but worth checking out if you're in the area.
