We have been visiting here at least twice a month for many years, but in the most recent experiences, they've done something to the HVAC. It has become uncomfortably cold inside the restaurant. In fact it's so cold that your food is cold before you can finish it. It has to be below 70°. read more

Very delicious. A party of 4 was seated promptly. It was nice to the fresh made tortillas. Being prepared right in front of the restaurant. Super cool. The breakfast burrito , steak & shrimp fajitas A great authentic atmosphere Everything was so fresh and yummy. You will continue to see us. read more

We went to Tres Amigos to celebrate one of my girlfriends and we had a great time. We were a large party so we had 2 tables and Kudos to our server who provided us with excellent service like a pro. The food was good and everyone enjoyed their meals. The venue is pretty spacious which I didn't realize from outside and there's plenty of parking. It's a nice place and I'm sure I will be back for happy hour and more tacos. read more

I have been going to Tres Amigos Cantina for 20+ years with my family. Last night I tried something new there, and I co-hosted a friends birthday party here! The staff exceeded my expectations and more! They never balked at me saying 50-60 people. The food was good and came out as expected. They were so kind with all of our balloons, backdrops and cupcake tables. The restaurant and its ambiance was the perfect backdrop for her "Feed me tacos and tell me I'm pretty" theme:) read more

The food is good but I don't think the pickup/takeout process needs to be as complicated as it is or was today. I called them and placed an order, go to pick up my order, park in the curbside parking spot and called them to let them know I'm here to pick up my order, THEY LET THE PHONE GO TO VOICEMAIL/DIDN'T ANSWER, then obviously annoyed with an unanswered phone I go to the front door to pick up my order there and tell me why there's literally FIVE people just standing around talking at the hostess doing nothing and clearly not answering their phone. Why?? What's the point of calling for curbside if you don't pick up the phone? Please adjust the way this process is because that was really annoying. The service when you're at a table here though is good and has always been friendly. read more

Food was outstanding and the service was spot on, place inside is very cute. Was on a date with new guy didn't want to interrupt our date to take pics of food and inside, like I normally do. $40 for two meals with salsa and chips and drinks (tea and water). Salsa was good I wish I could get it without onions but I can pick them out. read more

Amazing service, delicious food, and good music! It is hard to find authentic Mexican food here in Tampa with out there being some fusion/texmex flare added, so we were excited when we ate here and it was all Mexican food! There was an older gentlemen that was playing the guitar and singing. He was very sweet and let my daughter touch his guitar and play! We will definitly be visiting again! read more

This place was alright, would not be my first choice. The margarita selections are very limited so I opted for a mojito which was really good and strong. The salsa here is pretty bland but refreshing. I can never understand why most of the Mexican spots have such bland salsa in Florida ... it's really not that hard to make an authentic tasting salsa... I ordered the street tacos, one pastor , carne asada and belly .. they were all good , would order again. Didn't really eat the rice and beans but never do unless it's great tasting. read more

It's a kind of hidden location but a nice open interior and outdoor patio. Hint don't sit outside when there is only one server because he's busy, overworked and you could be ignored. The menu is decent lots of choices and the food was good, not the best Mexican but not bad. The house margarita was done well so there is that. read more

We have been going to this restaurant since they opened. I think they have some of the best fajitas in the area. I ordered the combination fajitas and they came out extremely dry and overcooked. I said something to the waiter and he said he would tell the Manager. The manager never came to our table. the issue was never addressed. We left most of the food on the table paid our bill. Unfortunately they've lost long time customer. read more

Was just ok. Not authentic flavor. Visited March 2024, St Patrick's Day weekend; Ordered Tacos Al Pastor- first AUTHENTIC Pastor is an Orange Red color. They charge $13 for TWO tacos- the tacos I got were made with very small cubes of dried pork meat and cubed pineapple with large onion pieces and a green aoli sauce drizzle. The sides were supposed to be Mexican rice and refried beans- the rice was parboiled rice with zero flavor and the refried beans were watery. YUCK! Had a side of Elote- pretty good, again not made authenticity and too much pepper not enough Tajín etc. The Pepsi was served in a severely cracked acrylic tumbler. Also ordered one mango mojito- not good. Hardly any mango flavor and huge mint leaves. The other dish we ordered was the spicy shrimp entre with tomato based sauce. The flavor was a nice flavored heat and good size shrimp and peppers with onions- Not bad but again served with the parboiled rice and beans. Sat at bar area service was good and the place is large with a nice fountain in the middle. The place has so much potential but the food lacks in authentic flavor. Overall visit was ok at best. Probably won't seek out the trip to eat here again. read more

Booth tables dirty (old food embedded - for a long time - into the grooves of the table sides (and just not our table; we looked); floor dirty. Rice and beans sides were room temperature when brought to the table; server was told, nothing done about it. Was at this restaurant about two years ago when we lived here; moved back and was expecting the same food, atmosphere, and service. Unfortunately, that was not the case. read more

Poor service from Amanda at the bar for a takeout order. I ordered fajitas & no cold fixings were included (no guacamole, no lettuce, no pico, no cheese). I called to see about getting cold fixings & spoke to the manager? Lola? & she said 'I'm so sorry' but did not offer to replace the missing cold fixings & ignored my request for them. read more

I gave a review 8 years ago but am surprised I only gave 3 stars. Changed to 4 stars because this is my family's favorite Mexican restaurant near us. I love love love the homemade tortillas which i rarely see at Mexican restaurants. My go to is the fajitas and queso. My wife loves the chimichangas. read more

I love this place. The queso with chorizo and the chicken quesadilla. French fries with old bay seasoning

Tasteless best describes this business. Went with a group of friends. Now service was very good but after eating one chip and salsa I found no taste. The salsa was really just crushed tomatoes. No spice. Little salt. Found one cilantro leaf in mine. Totally flat. Their margaritas were premade and on the bitter side. We all had a variety of main dishes and the consensus was that nothing tasted very good. Little sauce, absolutely no spices I have no idea how this place stays in business. read more

First let me start with the service, it was really good. The food however my gosh. They give you so much food like overwhelmingly so. That's a good thing though. The burritos was good. The chips and salsa are good. The wings could use some seasoning but outside that, I enjoyed it. The atmosphere was nice as well. I will recommend this place especially if you're looking for a home like atmosphere read more

New to FL, was in the area and thought I'd check it out. My go to at a Mexican restaurant is usually enchiladas, but unless I overlooked it on the menu they don't seem to have them. Had the chicken street tacos w/ rice and beans instead...along with a blended house margarita. The food was fine, not the best not the worse Mexican food I've ever had. I'd categorize it as mid-level. I also had a margarita and it was way too strong (for me). If you like a heavy handed pour on the tequila this is the spot. read more

Tres Amigos has a DELICIOUS chunky homemade salsa with entire garlic gloves. They also make their tortillas in-house, and you can see someone in the back always pressing and making them. I got their Cobb and added shrimp to it. Their Cobb uses cotija cheese. I wouldn't recommend their Bloody Mary, but their margs looked pretty good. The interior has high ceilings and neon lighting. read more

The food was awsome! Finally found a Mexican restaurant that I can eat the salsa without burning my lips off. The waitress recommended a taco that was wonderful!

First time to this place. Lived in New Mexico and Arizona for over 35 years you get good and bad Mexican food everywhere. This place was not bad. Food was seasoned. I had the chicken chimichanga. Wife had taco salad. Other had enchiladas, quesadilla, etc overall the food is a 4 star. The queso Blanco is fantastic..but the salsa and chips could be better. Restaurant was ok AC was not very good. Not enough wait staff. Due to AC issues waters sweating whipping head with exposed arms. I bet the kitchen was overheated .. who knows what was going on there. That is a management problem big time not the employees. managment needs to observe operations and get their shit together. read more

Came on a weekday during lunch time and I got the chorizo verde enchilada lunch special! It was a little too greasy but it had a good amount of heat. It was decent for a $10 lunch but I don't think I would choose to get this again - the rice and beans had flavor. My friend got the southwest salad with chicken which she really liked! Service was great and I liked the atmosphere. read more

Restaurant is beautiful. Employees are very kind. Chips are great. Salsa has no flavor. Taste is crushed tomatoes. Doesn't taste of salsa at all. Beans are pretty good. Rice taste like blan Minute Made rice. Queso taste like cheap Velveeta not Mexican queso. Tacos were served in store bought crunchy stale shells. I'd say they need a new chef in the kitchen. This place could be amazing if they would be a tad bit more authentic, and less Americanized read more

Love the food every time I come here and it's become a weekly meet since the start . The fajitas are my fave!

Been going to Tres Amigos for years. The food is always good and the staff is friendly and attentive.

Stopped in for an early dinner during happy hour. Their HH has select items $1 off. Nice atmosphere and we did not have a wait to be seated. Good came out quickly and was good. Slight correction with the margarita I ordered. I didn't want the powdered sugar or sour mix. The drink was way too sour as if they doubled up on the lime juice. I let the waiter know and he had it corrected. The second drink was better. Overall, good experience and I would recommend. read more

Have not been to Tres Amigos in a couple of years. Previous visits, the food and service were good and the pricing was reasonable. Went there Saturday and the food was pretty awful. We both ordered cheese and onion enchiladas and guacamole. The guacamole we sent back because it had some odd seasoning and it had HUGE chucks of raw onion throughout. It was obvious that the enchiladas were made in the microwave instead baked. What we got were tortillas with barely melted cheese and RAW onions inside and just a little bit of enchilada sauce on part of the outside of the tortilla. They have more than doubled their prices and the food quality went down the drain. Our bill was $41 before tip...SOOO not worth it. We could have gone to Taco Bell for a third of the price and much better food...lesson learned. read more

Worst experience at Tres Amigos for mother's day. Thought it would be a good place to eat and celebrate. The taco was plain, so much so that Taco Bell puts them to shame, there was nothing special or delicious about them. The fries and potatoes were burnt and cold upon delivery, plain, not even salt. The cheesy enchilada was a slop of meat covered in cheese, cold as well. The Chicken Tortilla soup is supposed to be broth and flavorful, it was not, it was just water, diced veggies, and chicken tossed in, with sloppy tortillas, cold as well. The entire meal was just sloppy and gross. And it barely was busy tonight. I highly suggest that if you want Tres Amigos at the Brandon blv, don't waste your money. 1/10 in food 0/10 in service The server had the gal to say that maybe my taste in food was just different. I could tell that the wanna-be latina has never tasted actual mexican food, much less puerto rican. read more

Very open concept dining with a section you can see them heat the tortillas up. I had really high hopes upon arrival. Queso was good, but everything else was mediocre at best. You can tell this is a reheat kitchen, beans tasted like they were right out of the can. No real flavor to anything. Definitely not authentic, Tex mex at best. read more

We've been going to Tres Amigos Cantina on and off since the day it opened. It's not the same as the Don Pablo's that was there before it, but it's still good. They did keep most of the décor as well as the tortilla making station. The restaurant that you see today is independently owned (it's not part of any chain) and local to Brandon. Just read the story on their website. I totally remember when Don Pablo's suddenly closed their locations and left their employees stunned the day after Christmas back in 2007. Fortunately, the property owner proposed a new beginning for the managers and employees. Tres Amigos Cantina was born from this partnership and has been a part of this community for about 15 years. It's a great story of survival and success. Our most recent lunch visit was a good one. My husband likes to go there for the Tex-Mex. It's not the best we've ever had but it's pretty decent. Most people come for the freshly made flour tortillas and their margarita pitchers. They have a great bar area and an outdoor patio. The chips and salsa are complimentary with the meal. They have a bolder version of their salsa that I swear used to be spicier, but not so much during this last visit. I guess it depends on the produce. I've had their steak and veggie fajitas, poblano relleno, and sopapillas in the past. All were good. Their queso and blanco dip are both very good, but I didn't get that this time around. I decided to try the elotes and carne asada. The street corn was prepared very well. It had great texture and flavor. The 8 oz. carne asada (or skirt steak) was a good size for me. It was cooked medium rare and topped with an herb butter. The only negative was that it was a tad under seasoned. It could have used a little more salt. I added salt later when heating up my leftovers at home and it was perfect. The entrees come with 2 sides as well as flour tortillas. I selected charro beans and the corn cake as my sides. It was all good. I honestly could eat those flour tortillas all day. Also, the corn cake was like a dessert at the end of the meal. My husband's combo appetizer platter was more than enough for him. He ate all of the chicken flautas and steak nachos. We always like their chicken flautas. He saved the quesadillas for later in the day. They reheat very well. He really likes the flour tortillas with their blend of pico de gallo and cheese. Another bonus is that they give a military discount. It's 25% for active duty military. Retired military and dependents with a military ID also get a discount but it's not as high of a percentage. We got a 10% discount this last visit. I think it's great that they even offer one. They're very good with large groups of people. Just call ahead for availability because it can get busy at peak times. The prices are good and there's plenty of parking. It's a good local spot. read more
