    Taco son

    Open 11-7pm. Great burrito. Casual atmosphere. Excellent customer service, Right on SR 54 ! Gotta check it out!

    Pork tamale

    The best authentic taco shop around! The owners were so kind and welcoming. The restaurant has different specials every weekday & the food is super cheap

    This is where TacoSon food belongs.

    If I could rate this place a negative star, it surely would deserve it. Trust the negative reviews about their food and chicken. It is old, dry, and has a funking tasting. I believe giving a business the benefit of a doubt. I was wrong and mistaken. This was my first time here and last.

    Pretty stripped down operation. Parking really sucks!

    Come on guys! The only silverware available is a baby sized plastic fork? Why not just stock some sporks and rename the place Taco Belle? The food is actually pretty good! The value proposition a certainly quite reasonable! The available parking completely sucks! If I was in the area, I would probably come back again. But absolutely make sure I have my silverware with me. Working so hard to eat a decent meal with a little plastic fork is just stupid

    2.2/5 trio of tacos I've tried these tacos several times...I've wanted to like them. I've tried to find the "good" in them. Unfortunately, the only thing that's been consistent about these tacos is that they are not good. The "coverup" here is a real thing. These tacos are covered with toppings; lettuce, tomatoes, onions-- sure, I COULD have ordered them without any of the toppings, but I take them as they come. Biting into these you will understand why the "coverup" exists.. all the proteins were extremely dry. The steak- rubbery; the grilled pork-like trying to swallow a rock. The shredded pork-bland and dry. All of these proteins were over cooked. Sadly, there is not much to enjoy here and certainly not a place worth enjoying your Taco Tuesday. maybe the other locations are better ‍ Just the everyday father giving you his perspective... what you do with it is completely up to you. Eat Well Friends. Cheers

    Huge breakfast burrito

    After running errands around town so early in the morning, the kids and are were starving. I am so tired of the same old breakfast places. I have passed this place so many times and keep meaning to stop for some grub. When we entered, the staff said hello and was ready to take our order. To my surprise that had a breakfast menu. The kids and I each got the chorizo burrito with home fries for $4.99. It has chorizo, eggs, cheese, onions, and other goodies wrapped in a warm tortilla. It took no time at all for all three of our orders. The portion size was huge. I ate that thing at 10:30am and was not hungry until well after 6pm. I was so full I did not even finish my home fries. The kids each loved it and was unable to finish it. They ended up getting a lunch out of it too. It was a fantastic tasty, filling breakfast at an insane price. I am already making plans on going back for lunch.

    Today is opening day, and I have been watching to see when that open sign would be glowing! Today was the day! This use to be Chick N Peas, and now I welcome Taco Son to town. They have been in Temple Terrace for awhile and I didn't know they had a location in St. Pete. Alas a local chain not national chain in Wesley Chapel. They have the typical tacos, burritos, chimichangas, quesadillas, tortas. They also have daily specials like today was a chicken special. Friday and Saturdays are inviting with a steak ranchero and fish tacos on Saturday. Today I picked the three taco shrimp with hard, soft and flour tortillas. The shrimp has a good flavor. I can't really nail down what I liked most. Usually it's the hard shell taco, but it wasn't this time. That was plain. Maybe the corn one. My hubby had the steak torta. The best part of it is the guacamole. The bread is just ok to me. The tamale was the one I liked the most. It was a good size too. I was surprised about that. It would probably be my go to and they have four flavors - Pineapple, pork, chicken and mole, and corn and cheese. The pineapple juice had too much pulp for me. The horchata had too much cinnamon. The service was great especially for the first day! They were very helpful! All in all, glad they are in town. I wish they had sopes, carne Asada, pina coladas(even non alcoholic), and huaraches on the menu. I also wish that there wasn't so many a la carte small items that are an extra charge here and there. That means I still have my number 1. This location, though is so close to home. I know we will be back for that reason and I'll get the fish tacos and steak ranchero.

    Beef tacos, beans, rice. Delicious.

    Three adults went for lunch Friday, 7/17. All three had different dishes. All were delicious. Great service. Friendly. Kind. My husband even went back after eating and told them how good it was. We put pics on FB and everyone said it looked yummy. Very reasonable on prices. We are very picky about Mexican food. So happy we finally found one at our back door. Small, only about 5-6 tables. A lot of take out that day.

    I went here at 8:27pm on a Saturday. They close at 9pm....chairs were already on top of the tables and the cook staff were already cleaning & ready to leave. That should have been a sign for me to leave, however I was town for a family vacation to the amusement parks and my family and I were starving. My rating is based on the food taste. The service was decent, however I felt rushed to eat. I ordered a chicken chimichanga. It was super gross. The chicken was DRY and chopped in cubes and not shredded. The tortilla wasn't completely fried. The beans and rice were decent. The chips didn't taste fresh. I've had better chips from a bag. The salsa was delicious. I even tried to smother some on my chimichanga, but that didn't help so I threw it away. My son had a quesadilla. He said it was good. You can't go wrong with cheese and a tortilla. My boyfriend ordered 2 beef tacos. They were out of steak. He didn't like the taste. The meat was dry. Won't ever stop here again, at least not close to their closing time!!!! They even starting taking out the trash cans while we were eating!!! Being from Arizona and surrounded by Mexican food this didn't taste authentic! Prices were decent. .

    Burrito
    Meghan C.

    One of the best on the area for sure! Great pricing with big portions and always very friendly and fast!! The burritos are huge and delicious! Guacamole is always very good with homemade chips!

    Shredded beef and a steak taco.  Excellent!

My son was in town so we wanted to show him the best of Mexican flavors. The atmosphere is always on point. Our server was awesome. He recommended things and explained the menu very well when we had questions. Loved that. I had a Burrito Bowl with Steak. OMG!! It was so good. The flavors were on point and it was packed with tons of flavor. I highly recommend this along with flour tortillas on the side. I also enjoyed a strawberry margarita. Yum!!!!

The staff is consistently quick, friendly, and on top of everything, which makes the whole experience easy and enjoyable. The menu is what you'd expect from a solid Mexican spot, familiar ingredients done well in a variety of ways. I always go with the #18 (1 burrito, 1 taco, rice, and beans), and it's the perfect portion. Every time, I leave completely stuffed. One of the highlights is when the mariachi band comes around. I once asked for "Rocky Top," and they absolutely nailed it, somehow blending that bluegrass vibe with a Latin twist. It was one of those moments that just makes the night more fun. The only downside, and the reason for 4 stars instead of 5, is the restrooms. They don't quite match the cleanliness and attention you see in the rest of the restaurant and could definitely use more consistent upkeep. Overall, it's a great go-to spot with fast service, good food, and a fun atmosphere. I'll definitely keep coming back.

    Chuy's has officially become part of our Silver Springs tradition. Whenever we're heading back…read morehome to Tampa after spending the day floating down the river in Ocala, if we're coming this way, we get excited knowing we can stop at Chuy's for some food and drinks before finishing the drive home. Yes, Chuy's is a chain, but if you're thinking typical chain-restaurant Tex-Mex, I personally think it's much better than that. I almost ALWAYS order the King's Memorial combo because for around $18, the amount of food you get is ridiculous--in the best way. You get a crispy taco, three enchiladas (cheese, beef AND chicken), Mexican rice and refried beans, plus crispy chips underneath the taco covered in that creamy queso. It hits the spot every single time, and I ALWAYS have leftovers. Little piece of advice: EAT THE TACO FIRST. Crispy tacos deserve to be enjoyed fresh and crunchy. They are not tomorrow's problem. My friend usually gets one of the burrito combos, which comes with a HUGE burrito, Mexican rice and black beans. She loves hers and usually ends up taking leftovers home too. I've also sampled enough food from other people's plates over the years to say I haven't really found anything here that I dislike. The fajitas are delicious, the margaritas are decent, and the prices are reasonable for the portions. Now let's talk about those complimentary chips and dips. We call the creamy one the "crack sauce." If you know, YOU KNOW. It comes out with the chips and salsa, and we literally have to make ourselves stop eating the chips because we want to save some of that creamy sauce for our actual meals. On our most recent visit, we sat on the bar side and had Ian taking care of us. He was friendly, respectful, quick with everything and checked in to make sure we were good. He even brought us some extra dipping sauce, which absolutely earned him bonus points with us. His name also happened to stick with me for a personal reason, so I definitely wanted to make sure he got his shout-out. The restaurant itself is super cute inside, and although we usually gravitate toward the bar side, the entire place has a fun atmosphere. Our service over multiple visits has consistently been good--20%-tip-worthy good--and the staff is usually pleasant and helpful. There are A LOT of restaurants to choose from in this area, especially if you're already over here shopping, so I know picking somewhere can get overwhelming. But if you like Tex-Mex and you've driven past Chuy's thinking, "Hmm... I wonder if that place is any good?" I definitely recommend stopping in at least once. If you hate it, I'm sorry. If you love it... you're welcome. We'll absolutely be back the next time our Silver Springs adventures bring us through Lutz!

    My two favorite things at Chuy's are the crack sauce and their queso both are just addicting. I…read morenormally get the Carbone steak tacos and I had the queso on the side. I got a beef burrito this time with the queso on top. It was delicious. We sat at the bar so the service was great. I believe it was Ian's first day by himself and he did a good job. He made me a really nice raspberry margarita on the rocks. This is definitely my favorite Tex-Mex place to come to.
