Delicious Caldo de Res! I tried to order Caldo de pollo, but was told they didn't have any. I opted for Caldo de res. WOW!!! It was amazing and hit the spot! This will be my new go to when I'm needing a little hug in a bowl. The orders to go do not come with chips/salsa and the soup order doesn't come with rice and jalapeños. Make sure to add those, if it's what you're used to. read more

On a mission to find chilaquiles, we set our objective for this spot. Felt like we were in Mexico City with the smell and the atmosphere. The lady greeted us warmly, recommended tamales and horchata, we ordered chilaquiles, one verde and one rojo, one pork tamale, two aqua fresca and settled in. Chips and salsa hit just right, chilaquiles were solid though the rojo was a bit on the saltier side, the star for me was the tamale. I would drive back here for those alone. Reminiscent of west coast offering. You'll find us there again. read more

This is a legit taqueria. Coming from the West Coast, rolling up to this place brought smiles to our faces while most would've brought uncertainty. This place has delicious tamales, pozole, and tacos. The prices were reasonable. They have a sit down area both inside and outside. They also offer canned and bottle drinks. read more

Taqueria Mi Mexico - El Pastor Tacos - Mexican Near Me - Tampa, Florida

Delicious Mexican food. I dropped by for an afternoon snack, which ended up being a meal because the menu looked so darned good! I ordered a horchata, a carnitas taco, an asada taco, and a lamb taco. Despite the small order, I was brought chips and salsa while I was waiting. The food came out quickly, so I didn't eat toooo many chips, just too many. ;) The tacos were excellent. I don't think the tortillas were house made, but they were still pan fried and generally held up to the fillings. There was a generous amount of meat in each taco. I don't know which meat I liked the best. They were all delicious! I'll happily return to this little taqueria if I'm in the area. read more

Excellent people! Greta food, service, and very authentic. I recommend anyone in the area stopping and trying this spot for lunch.

Went here for the first time today. Got Tamales. Never had them before. Will be going back. Very delicious. So fresh. The owner and server were very nice. They have great coffee also. The building was older but well kept. They have been there 33 years worth checking out. read more

I visited Taqueria Mi Mexico on a Saturday afternoon with my husband. We decided to check out restaurants we did not know that were on the divey side over the Valentine's Day weekend. This place has Valentine's balloons all over the restaurant. We walked in and sat ourselves and grabbed menus. The menu has a ton of great options including Tex Mex and a lot of fish. I was ecstatic when I saw Lamb barbacoa on the menu. Always a favorite of mine. This did not disappoint and came with rice and refried beans and veggies including perfect avocado. My husband got the pork Quesadilla which I tried and thought tasted a bit too fatty. The restaurant is a bit of a hole in the wall which I like, I want good food, I don't need fancy. Service was good and speedy. I don't like having to pay $1.75 for a dinky bottle of water though and was not offered tap. If you are craving Mexican or lamb! Check this place out. read more

Taqueria Mi Mexico - Lamb Barbacoa - Mexican Near Me - Tampa, Florida

I grew up in LA, which is to say I am a taco snob. We happen to be in Tampa and found this on yelp. Ordered 6 tacos: asada, al pastor, and borrego (lamb). They were excellent. The lamb has a bit of (very tolerable) gaminess to it. To boot, the waitstaff spoke no English, the other customers are all Hispanic. This is the joint! read more

If you looking for a place that serves homemade Mexican enchiladas and burrito. You must come here. I felt I was back home at my mom's kitchen. Service was very polite and pleasant. Ambiance is unique in its own read more

I was very happy I strolled in here there are many items in the hot cases I would like to try. But I had a taste for authentic tacos. You know cilantro and onion. That's it sooo good. Steak meat was delicious and moist good job. Price was right too. Service was table service and fast and friendly. read more

I was delighted with my meal and enjoyed the ambience. The staff was friendly and attentive. Can't wait to return1

You can look at my other reviews to know that Mexican food is something I eat all the time. This place is top notch for the area and carries some of the best seafood tostadas I've ever had outside of Mexico. No frills and I'm glad they've been busy with everything going on. read more

The portions are great! The service was great! The food is worth it! The have tons of options.

Muy mexicano , comida y atmósfera. Buen desayuno y lunch . Los tacos como en México. He ido varias veces.

Food was great. Loved their chips and sauce. Would definitely recommend. Locally owned so you have to support.

Excellent food, excellent service from Millie - great job folks! Stopped in this morning for some Juevos Rancheros and they hit it out of the park: home run all the way. From the fresh salsa and sauces, to the "over medium" eggs, everything was perfect and worth every dime. Wish I could go back RIGHT NOW but rest assured, I'll be returning soon!! read more

This is a specific review for their tacos they serve since I normally get take out as the the actual store I don't have too much to say, it's just looks like your average Mexican restaurant of on Armenia St, and it kinda seems so. However, The Tacos I Just love to buy here. As a man who comes from a Latin Family, these tacos really are the best I've tried in the area of Tampa, heck even all of Tampa Bay, that feel like they are the closest to being real tacos made in Mexico or Latin America. I highly suggest you try their tacos one of these days it may not 100% be actual Latin Tacos but they sure come real close. The are a good variety of types of tacos you can have here. read more

This is my favorite authentic street taco place in Tampa! I lived out in California for a while and really struggled to find legit tacos once coming back to Florida. Love the hole in the wall vibe and the fact that you can speak to everyone in Spanish. Plus it's super affordable! Note: if you love lots of cheese on your tacos--this is not the place for you. However, you shouldn't be dying for street tacos to be drenched in cheese as traditional street tacos often don't have much cheese, if any. read more

Taqueria Mi Mexico - Mexican Near Me - Tampa, Florida

Thoroughly enjoyed the tacos! Being from California I'm always in the hunt Dinner included: Fresh tortilla chips that were thick and crunchy 2 carnitas and 1 carne asada taco...meat, onion, cilanto...just how it should be Date had a California burrito, there weren't fries in it?!? A debate ensued as to if California burritos are in fact supposed to have fries or not. Anyhow, they also serve beer and had sports on! Friendly service but I don't speak Spanish and the waitress didn't speak English...but we made it work. All in all, I'd come back. read more

We happened to drive by this place and decided to stop in here for lunch. This has got to be the closest we've gotten to legit authentic Cali tacos! I got the carne asada and al pastor and they were delicious. We're moving to Temple Terrace so we are super excited to find a great taco spot!! The staff was super friendly as well! They guided us through the menu offered they're recommendations. They were very attentive making sure we were comfortable and enjoyed our food. It's so amazing to feel at home in a small pop and shop restaurant we just casually happened to spot on our drive! They are kind of pricey but it's so good!! read more

I'd rate this restaurant a solid 3.5 stars. We only tried their tacos but they have many other items on their menu. Their tacos are served on corn tortillas. The meat in the pork carnitas and pastor tacos were too dry for my liking, the pastor was served with pineapple. The asada and barbacoa (both beef and lamb) tacos were delicious and definitely the winners. They are very generous with the amount of meat they serve in each taco; we shared 8 tacos between 2 of us and we were pretty full by the end of our meal. read more

I'm not sure why this place has so few stars. I'm guessing it is because it is very, very low key - but the food is worth it. PROS: -One of the few, true Mexican restaurants in the area -Delicious food -Family owned -Great place to practice your Spanish! -Friendly service (Possible) CONS: -Not much to look at, but clean -Very definitely a "Spanish spoken here first" place LOCATION: Just south of MLK on Armenia. Parking in front is limited but there is more towards the back. FOOD: The menu is far more Mexican-specific than many in Tampa. It's not just a taqueria with limited influence from other Latin cuisines. I've enjoyed everything I've eaten here, especially the gorditas. Standards like tacos, fajitas, bisteca are readily available. I especially like their carnitas (slow roasted pork). They also have items items you don't normally see in "cleaned up" Mexican restaurants including cabeza (brain), lengua (tongue) and tripa (tripe) for the adventurous souls. While lacking in flashy fanfare, the food is very tasty. 4 Stars for Food. SERVICE: Very casual, polite and friendly. Be forewarned, English is not the language of they day so there may be some challenges there - but nothing that isn't easily overcome. I use it as a great place to practice and the servers actually enjoy/appreciate it. 4 Stars for Service. VALUE: The prices are very average, however, everything (including the chips) looks to be homemade and fresh. Tacos are $2 a piece, three gorditas are $9 while platers range $10 - $15. 3 Stars for Value. ATMOSPHERE: As mentioned, this place is about as low key as you can get. A few murals spruce it up but it's not going to win any interior design awards. It is clean and orderly though. 3 stars for Atmosphere If you are wanting throwback, legit Mexican food without the hullabaloo of say, Miguel's, you should definitely give this place a try. I think the score is very underrated. Food: 8/10, Service: 8/10, Value: 5/10, Atmosphere: 5/10 read more

Taqueria Mi Mexico - Caldo de Pollo, chicken soup. Delicious - Mexican Near Me - Tampa, Florida

Small spot but great flavor. Laid back atmosphere and authentic food. Been going for years.

Was craving street tacos for lunch. The street tacos were delicious!!! Had the carne asada and chicken. Corn tortillas on point! Going back for more, probably make this a weekly lunch stop read more

My girlfriend and I were craving tacos so we decided to give this spot a try as our other taco truck was closed for some reason. We arrived around 9pm on a Saturday night with only 2 other parties eating inside. Tacos were cheap so I got 4, chicken, pastor, Asada, and lamb. Food didn't take long to come out. The tacos were okay but would not recommend the lamb as it was super dry and over cooked . Was hoping for lengua but they were out. Overall it's a decent spot and the price wasn't bad. read more

I came here today because my friend told me they have a mariachi band on Sundays and it was amazing and made us feel like we were in Mexico. The music really adds to the atmosphere of the place and is just a good time. It is definitely no frills and very very casual, so don't expect anything fancy and you won't be met with any disappointment. I ordered shrimp and steak tacos and they were really good, seasoned really well and the steak was cooked well. The service was really friendly and attentive. The guacamole is one of the best I've had in Tampa and so fresh. The tacos are only $2 each but the dinners are around $10+. The menu definitely had a lot more options than any other hole in the wall place I've been to. They also serve beer and margaritas. There is plenty of parking in front and also a parking lot in the back behind Noa Noa Mexican grocery store. It is definitely quite small so I can imagine it being crowded when it's busy because the tables are very close together. I love that they bring out chips and salsa in the beginning, the salsa is super flavorful and perfectly spicy. read more

I'd like to give it more stars simply because the guy was very attentive. So the service was 5 stars however the food was a big no for me. It was ok but not great. I ordered cabeza , lengua, and buche. I had to tell them to make me a new lengua taco because my tounge taco was crunchy . Anyone that knows about tacos knows lengua is supposed to be very soft. I felt like our food was from a day or two ago. The salsa was very plain . Not spicy at all. I drowned my tacos in salsa and nothing. Pura salsa de tomatillo . They need to improve on flavor for both salsa and food. I tried a beed tamal that my grandma got. I'm sorry but I spit that out real quick and it was left on the plate . Very disappointed, nasty taste. Even the horchata had a lot of boruna in it. Whenever I come back to Florida I will not be back. #sorrynotsorry read more

Holy crud. The taco-eating devil has awaken inside me. Came here for tacos. Combined with this restaurant and the grocery/bakery next door I had a total of: 3 tacos (2 chicken and 1 chorizo), one fried quesadilla (chicken), guava and cheese turnover, and a churro. The chorizo is on point, on point, on point *clap*. Yes, the place isn't "spectacular" looking. But I found God here. I found the God that eats tacos. That's the only one I need. People have given this 3 stars because the waitresses don't speak English? WTF? FOOD SERVICE DOES NOT REQUIRE MUCH COMMUNICATION. Point at your menu item, sit down, and enjoy your food. read more

I found this place after a doctor visit across the street. I got 3 soft beef Tacos and have to say they were probably the best I've ever had. Staff was very friendly and good cam out quick. I will be back next time I'm in Tampa! read more

Taqueria Mi Mexico - Best Mexican! - Mexican Near Me - Tampa, Florida

I was sorely disappointed in both the service and quality of food here. My co-workers and I stopped here for a quick bite. Both of our servers seemed uninterested in helping us and when we ordered our food we were asked, "Are you sure you want to order? It is going to take so long." What? Does that mean they didn't want us there? We only had 30 min left before getting back to work and so there was not an option to go elsewhere. When I went to the back, the bathrooms were located right next to a food prep station where a large pile of sliced steak was being cut. What? I tried not to think about it too much and was relieved to remember I didn't order steak. I definitely won't be back. The food was mediocre and the service was atrocious. And I am not sure everything is up to code. read more

Best authentic Mexican food in Tampa Been looking for a spot like this for a while !

I was very disappointed in the quality of their food. I ordered the chicken nachos, and asked to have the chips separated from other ingredients. When I received the plate nothing was separated. I stated to the cashier that my order was wrong but she said there is nothing they can do. read more

Coffee w/ Salsa, right on, now add authentic Huevos Ranchero''s, rice & beans with a side of homemade flour tortillas, ay dio mio, too mush bueno! I perceive is a good sign that the majority presence is Hispanic.countering those questioning the authenticity of the place and it's blandness. Decor is very barrio soul-kitchen and also definitive is to arrive in jeans and tee, shorts, even pj's... judging not at this place. Vegetarian here so not sure about breakfast meat selection. There's a grillin' going on outside, yes even in the morning, in preparation for the day I guess. Sure smells good. Oh plenty kids were about the place. I paid cash so not sure about Visa, etc. read more

Delicious Mexican cuisine!! Their tacos carnitas are amazing!!!! I really want to try the chicken soup next time too. I just can't stop coming here to eat every time I'm in Tampa. read more

The worst restaurant ever that I've tried, the whole place seemed dirty as we walked in. Chips were stale to start off. The menu seemed new to the waiter... I ordered Alambre which in the menu it stated it came with three different meats, however the lady comes back to ask me which meat I wanted so I was like what are you talking about? It states exactly what comes with it in the menu... Asked her for water and never got my cup of water. I speak perfect Spanish and I have no idea what she was saying. My wife and I were so disgusted by the whole place we didn't even eat 1/4 of our food. DO NOT GO TO THIS PLACE! You'll regret it. read more

Taqueria Mi Mexico - Alambre was so bad I didn't even eat it. Waste of money. - Mexican Near Me - Tampa, Florida

The barbacoa and the mole are amazing. The tamales and the chiles rellenos are also a must.
