Food was amazing, pernil was tender and seasoned well. Living in Fort Worth, TX, good Puerto Rican food is hard to come by, so getting some was my first priority after making it to Florida. The lady working was very friendly, I believe maybe she was the owner but didn't get her name. It was also a comfortable spot to sit and eat, and not only good for to-go. I'll be back next time I'm in Tampa. read more

3.5 stars...Ordered thru Uber, food was warm and fresh. The Monfongo was delicious yet the pork had alot of fat on it and was DRY as a bone. The beef alcapurria has gotten much smaller with less flavoring (bland, very soggy & greasy) the pork was NOT fried like it should or use to be, moreso like it was old meat they cooked, sitting under a heating lamp for days kind of dry. Still would recommend, but get the meat to fat ratio under control. For the price on Uber (32$) I wouldn't do it again. Maybe in person waiting would be better. read more

Stepping into this charming restaurant, I was immediately transported back to the vibrant atmosphere of the Bronx in the 1990s. The soft background salsa music and the colorful decorations adorning the walls exuded a sense of Puerto Rican pride. I decided to indulge in the carne frita with arroz con gandules, accompanied by a house salad. However, my culinary journey took an unexpected turn. The carne frita was disappointingly bland, and the arroz con gandules was undercooked. Despite my initial hopes of discovering a delightful Puerto Rican dining experience, I couldn't help but wonder if the restaurant was simply off on an off day. read more

Tito's Latin Kitchen in Tampa gave me New York City vibes right away; bold, urban, and lively. The food was decent, though not the best I've had. The beef was dry and overdone. The pork chops were okay, but also overdone and lacked juiciness. The arroz con gondules was lackluster. The menu has a lot of promise and the atmosphere is fun, but for the price I expected more on the meat quality. If you're curious for Latin American flavor in a stylish spot, it's worth checking out. Service was average and nothing special. read more

Quick lunch after a flight - solid 8/10. We stopped in for a quick bite and ordered arroz con gandules, pernil, a side of tostones, and a beef alcapurria. Portions were generous -- easily enough for two people. The flavors were delicious and comforting, definitely reminded us of home back in Jersey/New York. The alcapurria was just okay -- could've used a bit more meat, but still had good flavor overall. Everything else hit the spot. Would definitely come back. read more

Tito's Latin Kitchen - Empanada & Alcapurria & Malta - Puerto Rican Near Me - Tampa, Florida

It just so happens that today, January 25, the planets align and it occured to me that maybe that is why I was drawn to Tito's and discovered the wonderful food they have. With my nephew the dentist in tow, we decided to try a new Puerto Rican place he found on line. He's been living/working in Ocala and misses the food from home. So, food to go for 3, him and I and the wife. To our delight, everything we ordered was very authentic and delicious. All 3 of us, agreeing as we ate how great the food was and how authentic it tasted. We had tostones, mofongo, carne frita, chicharon de pollo, arroz y habichuelas. All of it was spot on, appeazing my very discerning tastes when it comes to latino food. The star of the show was my wife's Mofongo. A ball of fried green plantain that has garlic, chicharon, spices and sometimes caldo, mashed with a wooden mortar and pestle. It was divine, one of the best I have had. Moist, savory and flavorful we all tried it and rolled our eyes. Sooo, Tito can cook! The place was clean, looked fairly new, had Nuyorican decor and was located on Waters Ave. a few blocks east of Armenia. Parking in front, part of a strip center, small and cozy. There was a nice young lady to take our order and bag it to go. The menu was brief but hit a lot of the typical dishes and treats you would encounter back in PR. I will mention to people unfamiliar with Cuban and P. Rican food, that a lot of it is fried and they tend to over fry foods to an extent, it's a cultural thing, it's just their way. So when you order fried pork chunks, fried chicken chunks or fried pork chops, you can expect it to be well fried and dark. Which as a cook I stop short of that when I prepare food to leave more moisture and juiciness. So, tonight when I gaze up into the sky to witness the celestial event, I will thank the stars for my good fortune today. Pull up a chair, your gonna want to try the food. read more

What a treasure of a find on a hot Friday afternoon for lunch! The A/C was working great inside Tito's ( it is no longer just a food trunk ). The owner or manager has done a very creative job on decor inside to reflect New York Puerto Rican pride! Really cute inside and very clean and comfortable. We enjoyed two Pincho's. Which are skewers of meat. One of chicken and one of pork - both delcioso with sweet media niche bread on the side. Our sandwich we shared was the churrasco with hot, fresh friend. The flank steak was prepared perfectly and there was enough food that lunch tomorrow is covered. The cashier was super friendly and the guy who was making the food in the kitchen came out, made eye contact with my husband, and with gesturing made certain we liked the food. My husband nodded enthusiastically! YES! A great find off Waters Avenue that you should check out some day soon! read more

FIVE stars! I love the folks at Tito's. It's small, clean, friendly, and the food is DELICIOUS! I order by Uber eats often for lunch and they always get the order correct. They always indulge my request to make my chicken rinds "extra burnt and crunchy"! The arroz con gandules are quite flavorful and their Tripleta and ponchos are the best. The ponchos are five stars every time. The pan Sobao is indescribable! Don't miss this delicious food with kind and friendly folks!!!!!!&. read more

If ever you've been confused by a review of mine where I gave a popular restaurant with high ratings a low star review... then come to Tito's and see why!!! So far I've only tried the CHURRASCO SKIRT STEAK PLATE ($14) with yellow rice, but I honestly don't know if I will ever try anything else because it was SOOOO GOOD! Seasoned by angels and cooked with such perfection that I will absolutely crave this for the rest of my life! THIS, my dear Yelp people, is EXACTLY what I mean by "flavorful" seasoning. They have completely ruined skirt steak cooked by anyone else because I can't go back to anything less than this level of satisfaction! Even the Strawberry Banana Smoothie ($6) is excellent! Tito's is currently located in an empty lot next to the Citgo Gas Station on the corner of North Jones Ave and West Waters Street, but this is also the location of their soon to be brick & mortar restaurant. So if you love New York style Puerto Rican cuisine, rush here as soon as possible and taste heaven on a plate! 2021 / 91 read more

My favorite spot to get Puerto Rican food in the Tampa Bay Area! Hands down so good! If you are looking for an authentic boricua dish or just a snack or frappe ... this is the place to go! Tito and his staff are super welcoming and professional, and all around amazing people. I've busted them more times than I can count at this point lol and if I could everyday I would eat there! My favorite dish is "Carne frita, con arroz con gandules, y tostones" and I love to pair it with a frappe of any kind! I also love their empanadas de pizza !! Just thinking about it right now makes my mouth water! The prices are also incredible and you get a good amount of food for what you pay! Please give them a visit when you get the chance! If you have been wanting to try their food they just opened a brick and mortar right next to where the food truck used to be!! read more

The alcapurria we over priced at $5 a piece and were monga because of adding potatoes to the masa and if your Puerto Rican you'd know what I mean. The carnitas was ok, but the tostones were not. and cooked with the same grease as the pork. read more

I typically order for delivery but decided to go to the restaurant to check out the location. I wish I had a better review but unfortunately all the food was cold chicharron de pollo was over cooked (dry) and cold and so was everything else. I tried the chopped cheese and it was not a chopped cheese! First they used pan sobao and they used steak instead of chopped meat. The only thing I stand by is the mofongo, it is always delicious. I recommend that they make everything fresh or serve it to the table as it is made. Nobody likes cold food. read more

Ordered off Uber eats for lunch and was able to get quite a hefty meal for a decent price. Food arrived hot and fresh. The pork was nicely seasoned and not dry at all. Tostones were large and nicely fried. There was even a small side salad and mayo-ketchup sauce on the side for the tostones.

Amazing food, service, and vibes. Will def return when I am back in the area. Felt like I was in PR. Loved it!!

Famished after a day of cigar smoking at the Tampa Cigar Bash and a little libation at the Jr Cigar Outlet.... we raced to Tito's Latin Kitchen 7 minutes away. One of the fellas who is a local suggested the place. Tucked at the end of a gas station strip mall. Tito's is just large enough for two tables with about 10 chairs and a take out counter with register set up for for online orders and credit card. It is well lit, clean and filled with the aromas of Puerto Rican home cooking. Abuelita is in the little kitchen preparing the most succulent pulled pork, red beans and rice, tasty mofongo,, empanadas North of the Caribbean. Daughters smiling face and welcome greets us as we enter. The food is served in Styrofoam and plastic but we could not shove the large portions in our mouths fast enough. We ordered empenadas to go. Tito's is a locals hidden gem. I am glad I live on the East Coast of Florida otherwise I would never lose the last 20 pounds to hit my target weight. Four stars for the food and warmth of service. Felt like we were in Mama's kitchen with family and friends. read more

The empanadas were fabulous, went there three times in one week. Service was great! Staff were polite and helpful.

Food didn't have any flavor. Service was ok. I tried it on my lunch break to be honest probably won't go back again.
