This is my home. I can't say anything kinder. I constantly recommend this place to everyone I love. They have great vegetarian options too, and anyone who comes in loves it. The service is always top notch, and know exactly what I'm going to order before I can even say it. They look after you and you can truly taste that in the food they make. The atmosphere is casual and comfortable, like you're sitting in your living room. I would die for this place. read more

First time here, asked staff for suggestions and got some great tips. Great spot to visit before concerts, super fast and delicious.

I have only been once but I thought it was great! I had the taco salad (with beef tongue). The taco bowl was warm, crisp and delicious. The beef tongue was tender and flavorful and all the other ingredients were fresh and tasty. They give you a very nice size portion. My only complaint is that they seem to add way to much sour cream (noticed the same issue with diners meals). Next time, I'll just ask for the sour cream on the side. I'll be back!! read more

TacoSon - Mexican Near Me - Tampa, Florida

TacoSon is a no frills casual Authentic Mexican Restaurant which is located off North 56th in the Temple Terrace area of North Tampa. You place your order at the counter, get a number, and a server brings your order to your table. TacoSon also has a drive through available for those in a rush. TacoSon gets pretty busy for lunch but placing our order never has taken more than 5 minutes and we've never waited over 10 minutes for food so we have no complaints with the servers or kitchen ! TacoSun's meat options include: steak, shredded beef, chicken, grilled pork, shredded pork, beef tongue, pork rings in green salsa, and shrimp for an extra charge. TacoSon's menu includes $2.50 tacos, $6.25 burritos, $6 Quesadillas, $7 tortas (Mexican sandwiches), $3.25 tostadas, $8.50 for 3 flautas, $8.50 chimichangas, $8 shrimp and octopus ceviche, and $9.50 for grilled shrimp served in any form. As a bonus, every customer gets a complimentary banana for dessert with their order. TacoSon's daily specials include: - Chicken Mole on Monday's - Pork in Red Chile on Tuesday's - Random on Wednesday's - Chicken Chipotle on Thursday's - Steak Ranchero on Friday's - Carnitas or Fish Tacos on Saturday's On my first visit I got the pulled steak quesadilla but it wasn't quite cheesy enough and had too many toppings. It was basically like a burrito but with cheese. I definitely don't recommend their quesadillas. On my next visit I got the pulled pork burrito and it was very large and flavorful and satisfying for $6 so I can't complain. The green and red house made sauces are very flavorful and compliment the burritos well. The sauces remind me of the sauces at taco bus but better! So it's no surprise that TacoSon is a creation of the original cook from Taco Bus! My coworker got the special of the day which was the chicken chipotle dish and it came with 3 flour tortillas you can roll yourself. It's a ton of food and he loved his dish as well. I look forward to trying more off the menu on my next visits! read more

I understand that they make everything fresh but the line is so long throughout the day the business hours between 12 noon and 1:30 PM which is my lunch break and I only get 30 minutes on my lunch break so I expect the tacos to be made a little faster, but I understand the technique of fresh and being responsible when handling food read more

They have drive thru available or takeout from inside. We went inside and ordered takeout. Staff was wearing masks and our order was ready in less than 10 minutes. We tried nachos, queso, burrito, tacos and quesadillas and the whole family was happy with the meal. They use chopped cabbage instead of lettuce which is awesome and the servings are really large, very shareable! Highly recommend for authentic Mexican. read more

Two words: refried beans. TacoSon has some of the best refried beans I have ever had! I come to TacoSon often and always have a good experience! It is a no frills restaurant, which I do not mind when it comes to my tacos! The inside has some table seating, but I usually take to-go. There is also a drive-thru! I usually order a 2 taco platter and chips and guac- with their guac on the chunkier side (just the way I like it!). My go to tacos are the Asada and Cochinita Pibil. The platter comes with rice and beans, which I could essentially just eat as a stand alone meal! I also really enjoy their red and green salsas to top off my tacos. Yum! read more

TacoSon - 2 taco combo with rice and beans! - Mexican Near Me - Tampa, Florida

Haven't been able to find any decent Birria since I lived in Los Angeles and TacoSon did not disappoint. For 10.99 you get a 16oz container or delicious shredded beef in a Mexican beef broth, and a bunch of corn or flour tortillas on the side. The only thing I was worried about was the broth being too salty but it was quite mild actually. The flavors and spices were just right with this dish and my entire family enjoyed it. The tacos were kind of interesting too, they had all the usual toppings with the exception of pickled cabbage. Definitely one of the better places to eat in the whole area. Thank god for Yelp helping me discover this place read more

Best Mexican food in town! Prepared fresh and the meat and food is well seasoned. I usually order the tacos with beef.

This is by far the best Mexican food I've ever had. Everything we ordered was huge and full of flavor

Best authentic Mexican food. I love the street tacos and chimichangas. I would highly recommend this place.

Great place to have authentic Mexican cuisine. This place more more people outside at the Drive-Thru service than dining in. Came in here for a quick bite after coming out of Tampa Airport. I ordered the grilled shrimp plato, and it tasted great with tint of spicy taste. I do have to make extra effort to remove the shrimp shell on the tail portion. read more

The Best Taco place in tampa! I Love the food here, the staff is always friendly, food is always delicious, sitting in and outside options. I get the 2 hard shell taco meal with black beans and rice, with a side of guacamole and chips! read more

This place is legit! When I was a student at USF, I would frequent TacoSon for its student deal. At the time, these were the best tacos I had found in Tampa. I would bring all my friends there, and we all loved it. My friends from Southern California said it tasted like real Mexican food. My Mexican friends said it tasted like home cooking! Check out TacoSon if you're ever in the area! read more

In town for a concert so we decided to try this place out. I had the carne asada burrito which was delicious and huge! The beans and rice were fresh, too. My husband ordered a bean and cheese burrito and unfortunately, they gave him black beans..twice. They were just too busy for us to say anything again. I felt guilty eating my delicious burrito in front of him! Lots of parking, lots of tables, good for families. Prices were pretty reasonable considering how much food they give you. I would definitely come here next time I'm in town! read more

Why 4 stars? Because it's some of the better Mexican food in TB. --- --- --- As a native Houstonian, I am constantly in search of Mexican food that reminds me of back home, and TacoSon does a good job of doing just that. Don't come expecting anything fancy (which I view as a good thing in a Mexican restaurant.) This is definitely a bit of a hole in the wall, but it's nothing scary or shady. We ordered the loaded nachos, and they were a treat. TacoSon is reminiscent of Taco Bus, minus the long lines. Win-win! read more

Taco Son is an absolute gem. Food tastes like it was made with love and staff is always quick and friendly. They have daily specials and I've enjoyed almost every single one I've tried. My favorite things to get are their Carnitas on Saturday, Carne Asada Quesadilla, or their shrimp tacos! Great casual dine in experience or if you're in a rush they have a drive thru too! read more

This place didn't do anything for me whatsoever. Their pineapple water was too sweet. Tasted fake and blah. The shrimp and octopus ceviche was just meh. The octopus looked like thick masses of something, can't find a good word, but when bitten into, tasted like mush. It was swimming in tomato sauce with a slight lime and onion taste. The pork tamale had no good flavor just some pork mashed in the middle of a bunch of corn meal. I should have known when my hubby was like, ehh, you are going there. I don't want anything. I will pass. My hubby loves everything so that was a sign. But I had to try it. They didn't have the crab tostada that looked good to me, and I thought a grilled shrimp taco might be good but didn't try it. Meh, not coming back. I get it with Gigi's review, & how she sees this place as lazy. read more

Amazing authentic Mexican food! The food is consistently delicious! Stop here every time I'm in Tampa!

The food was probably the best Mexican food in Tampa. The pork tamales were the best I have ever had. The counter help was slow and we had to repeat our order over and over. When the food came it was still wrong. It was sent back and was correct. The presentation was on styrofoam plates and disposable flatware. I will be back here every week to try other menu items. read more

It doesn't look like much from the outside, but never judge a book by its cover. We had a great experience here. I went with an old friend for lunch. We arrived between 11:00 and 11:30. It was already starting to get full. We placed our order at the counter. They hand you a table number, and you find a seat. We munched on some chips with white queso dip. It's a very thin dip, but it really packed some flavor. Nothing fancy, but it was unique for queso dip. I loved my choice of camarones asado (3 tacos). You can get this in 6 different ways. It's a very large portion. I ate most of it, but I would have been happy with just 2 tacos. The shrimp were very tasty and spicy. They can tone down the spice for you. Just let them know when you place your order. As we were leaving, there was a line all the way to the door. It's a very popular local place. So be aware of that. It may be difficult to find a table after noon. Anyway, I'm looking forward to going back again. There are other menu items that I want to try. The service was good, and it looked pretty clean. I felt that it was better than Taco Bus. I say that because TacoSon's guacamole is way better. I have to have my guacamole. I was also very happy with the cabbage and pickled onion combination in the tacos. The presentation actually looked better too. Well... you be the judge when you try it for yourself. read more

I love TacoSon. My coworkers introduced me to this place as a hotspot for lunch. They have some of the best tacos in the area. My only complaint is that the tacos do have too much cheese, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. Their combos are reasonably priced and come with refried beans in cheese and rice. Their rice is delicious and has really good seasoning. I have also seen some of their other menu items that look out of this world. Their "menudo" is some kind of stew soup and it looks incredible. I need to try it next time. Their chimichanga is also ENORMOUS. To be honest you really can't go wrong for the quality and the price. Most combos are around $7.99- $10. They also have tres leches l, which was outstanding, and the horchata was pretty delicious as well. Overall, if you're in need a Mexican style lunch, I highly recommend giving this place a try! read more

Hidden Mexican Food Gem in Tampa! Very well priced and homey feel. Ordered Chimichangas and the Torta "Mexican Sandwich" Will be back again!

Good food. Healthy choices. High quality. Busy. Get it to go. Not much for atmosphere. It looks like they just moved in. It's not decorated it's not really comfortable. It's just some hard basics. The food is good read more

Maybe the best taco spot in Tampa. Every time Ive come here, the food has been consistent, the menu offers a variety of tacos, all fairly priced. You know its good when you have a hard time choosing a favorite dish. Everything has been excellent so far. The only negative for me is the fact that they are so far from me (not their fault). The establishment is nothing fancy, come for the food and you wont be disappointed. read more

Date: 03-08-2018 Time: 1215 I visited the OG local in Temple Terrace and was duly impressed with their offerings. This new spot happens to be close to my Dad's...so I decided to take him there for some lunch. Side Note...my Dad does not really like tacos...I am concerned that we are not actually related. Take note that the parking is limited, especially in front of the shop and that this spot is situated by a guns/ammo and smoke shop... I ordered tres tacos all on corn (double shells) with queso: Cochinita Pibil: Great taste, porktastic and full of juicy flavor. Lengua: My favorite carne. It was cooked well and had it's distinctive earthy rich flavour that cut throught the accoutrements. Chicharron en salsa verde: This one was new to me and I had to order it. It is a great study in contrasts of textures, with a great taste and if your are familiar with the flavors...will not disappoint. The side sauces mild/medium and caliente are all excellent. As a certified purveyor of sauces I take this quite seriously. These sauces are all packed with flavour and even the "spicy" next to the counter is not all that spicy in my book. They all have a rich and complex flavour and add a great component to the tacos...in short....get them. The prices were quite good, while the service left a lot to desire. The order taker was one the phone for a good 4 minuets before she took our oder and my old man's order was delivered in a to go box..which he did not appreciate. He got the nachos...man who raised me and lead me to believe he is my father...they were heavy and not something i would recommend you order. Overall...this is a great spot to get relatively classically inspired tacos with good topics and a great sauce seleciton at a good price. I mean you are in WC South...so it's great for the local.

Food is okay it's basically like fast food Mexican that you can enchiladas are really good

Another great taco place near USF! The menu is easy to read and if you have any questions, the employees are very helpful in answering them. I wanted to try everything but had to control myself so I went for a tostada and and three tacos. The service is super fast. As soon as we sat down, we were already given our waters and within 5 minutes, our food followed. Both dishes came out extremely fresh and hot. The tostada's ingredients were layered together to create a perfect bite. The beans, cheese, and vegetables complimented each other so well with the crispy base. The tacos weren't as impressive but they were still yummy. I wasn't a big fan of the corn tortillas because it was kind of bland and chewy. The carne asada meat was flavorful but the lengua (beef tongue) had an iron/gamey taste unlike most other Mexican places. The sauces that are given on the table were really flavorful, the red sauce had a smokey peppery taste while the green one (extremely hot) had a citrus/jalapeño like mixture. The restaurant is very clean, has plenty of seating, and I definitely will be back to try the other menu items! read more
