    The best tacos since I dont know when.. 1) filling 2) decent price: $4.50-6 max 3) fresh ingredients. Protip: sign up for their vip club (which free) you get a free margarita...which also doesn't taste cheaply made. Win win. Service: friendly and if you love to chat...well pop a squat Ambiance: their decor is reminiscent of tiajuana flats mixed with iguana mia. And if you want to feel at home..there are leather couches in the back. Just go! You won't regret it. For you craft tap lovers: 99 bottles is next door.

    During our day trip to Sarasota we were looking for a spot that's close to places we were planning to visit and had a fun vibe. Circo turned out to be the perfect spot! Service was excellent. Everyone was very friendly from the second we walked in. This place is very family-friendly with great kids menu options. The freshly in-house made chicken tenders were a big hit with our girls. Bar team did a great job whipping up a mocktail for our daughter as well. The drinks are delicious. We had desert pear margaritas and they were amazing. I can't wait to be back to try other flavors. The menu has great options for every taste. I love the new spin on some of the taco flavors and combinations. The goat cheese guacamole was very good and what a great way to incorporate goat cheese! Also, their Birria taco is a MUST TRY!

    Great place with an array of tacos.....REALLY good tacos! Servers are kind and attentive. Fish, Shrimp, Mongolian Beef are delish. (Haven't tried the rest....but will be back!) Comfy cozy place with outdoor seating, bar seating, sofa seating, regular tables and high-tops. Pool table and neighborhood feel easy parking. Dog friendly.

    This place rocks and "Chatty Kathy" made our experience over the top. The tacos are amazing, phenomenal bourbon selection and an overall great atmosphere. Kathy took care of us like we were family. Will definitely be coming back here again!

    Was out and about looking for some happy hour drinks and food and wandered into Circo. The place was fairly empty and we grabbed seats at the bar. Bartender was quick to take our drink order and WOW that old fashioned had great flavor and a big kick to it! Ordered some tacos and they came out fairly quick. Excellent flavor and just the right size bite for what we had in mind. Was quiet while we were there but imagine it gets quite loud when it gets busy. Great spot, good food, definitely worth a try.

    Great happy hour! Select bogo items like margs and tacos during 4-6 on Monday and 2-6 Wednesday - Friday! The full menu is in the photos below. The food wasn't bad and the atmosphere was fun!

    House margarita... was expecting a bigger size that is on yelp but this is there size now!

    8.00 margaritas were so cute looking!!! The nachos were good .... would have been better if they were hot! Want salsa for your 5.00 taco that is extra! Chicken taco was really good. We also ordered the gringo taco (almost nothing was inside ) sent it back as to not be charged 5.00 for a pathetic looking taco!

    Great taco place. The vibe is lively and surprisingly they also boast a bourbon collection. The bar is large and they also have a pool table. The service is friendly. This is a tex-mex place so you're not coming here for the traditional mexican taco. They have all these different types and fusions of tacos. My korean pork taco was a winner. The ahi tuna taco was good too. We split a queso and practicall licked the bowl clean. As for hot sauce make sure you get their house made one. The prices here are reasonable too for the amount of food you get.

    We were driving through Sarasota as part of a return trip and were looking up taco places to eat. We found Circo online and decided to give it a try. It wasn't very busy for a Sunday afternoon and we were instructed to seat ourselves. The restaurant is nice and has very eccentric lighting and decorations. I really like that they have couches as part of their seating. We were very hungry so we decided to try a variety of tacos. Of the things we ordered, the elote corn salsa (which was very delicious, I highly recommend), the Falafel taco, the Birria Beef taco, and the Mongolian Beef taco were our favorites. I wasn't a fan of the house margarita because it was extremely sour - I couldn't even finish it. We didn't really care for the Buffalo Chicken or Nashville Hot tacos either. Overall, it was a good dining experience and we'll be back to try more of their menu if we're ever back in town!

    Just arrived !

    Ambiance was a hip taco shack. Pretty lively. Service was attentive , you walk in and sit where you want to sit and the waiter / staff member will bring menus and come to you. Tacos were good , tasted fresh and filled with a lot of substance . I enjoyed sitting next to the window where I saw a guy with a snake on his shoulders walk by so that was fun.

    Gringo Taco & Thai Shrimp Taco

    God bless America and their obsession with fusion food. This place will put anything in a taco. Came here for happy hour on a Friday. Cool spot, great prices and service. I loved their decor, and they even had a pool table. Got 2 margs and 6 tacos for under 25 for everything with their BOGO deal. Enjoyed their shrimp taco, the gringo tasted like a nicer Taco Bell taco, a very classic American taco. I would advise that if you're craving authentic, I'd continue looking. If you like American tacos and a good time, it may be worth your time.

    Hipster Mexican vibe.

    Circo is fun. We'll be back the next time we're in town. Trendy but not fussy. Great fusion twists on tacos. Thai shrimp and buffalo chicken were our favorites, but the shrimp salad taco was also great. The birria taco -- I don't know what this trend is all about. Too greasy for me. Good cocktails. We had the bourbon margarita and the tequila old fashioned. (Get it?! They switch the liquors! Because they can!) Not cheap, but they're using premium spirits and mixing them well. Service was friendly and attentive on an early Saturday evening. No problem getting a table. One quibble: They charge $8 for chips and salsa, and I get that they don't want to feel bound by being a traditional Mexican restaurant, but I know of Michelin starred Mexican-inspired restaurants that give out free chips, and their purity is not sullied by doing so. The fact is, free chips would have made us thirsty enough to order another $30 worth of cocktails. And even if they're handmade, making chips is neither hard nor expensive. Oh, and the bathrooms are way cool. Be sure to check them out.

    This is what was left of our margaritas after we ate all the tacos and drank most of the margaritas! It was just enough and not too much!

    Another great taco Tuesday. We are frequent flyers at Circo taco. Tonight we sat at the bar and Kathy was amazing. She was a friendly and efficient server and made us feel so welcome. The got the buy one get one at Circo taco on Tuesday is a great deal and don't forget to get the Margharita special.

We were impressed with her recommendations. She made us feel very welcome, which added to our fantastic meal. We enjoyed all of the appetizers - spanakopita, grilled octopus, spicy fries with feta, and dolmades. All were delicious, however, my favorites were the dolmades and grilled octopus. For dinner, we ordered the beet and feta salad and open face lamb and chicken pita. Absolutely delicious! To end our meal, we shared the carrot cake with pecans and cranberries. The combination was out of this world. Looking forward to dining here again. Thank you for the great meal and service.

There was a good amount of cheese curds and the gravy with the FF's were perfect. Truffle Burrata, also very good the black garlic is strong but it worked nicely with the dish. A large serving. My spouse loves mushrooms. I like them but it was still really good. Cubed yellow fin tuna: Also a very large portion and good flavour but it could have gone without the tomatos (and I love tomato's) And perhaps served with a rice cup or something to scoop it up. Everything is diced up so it makes it kind of messy to eat. We got a burger to split. we didn't order a side but the waiter I guess put them in anyhow. The FF without the poutine are just ok. The burger on the other hand was really good and cooked perfectly. We split everything and took home left overs, as it was a lot of food. We shared the butterscotch gelato and had coffee to go with it. The service is good, The athompshere is pleasant. We will definitely be back to try some of the other items. I'm not a greek fan so I wouldn't touch those but my husband will. :)

The menu - though not expansive - offered a fish, a steak, a chicken, a pasta, a burger, wagyu meatloaf, salads and several other options, appetizers, a full bar & wine. The four of us were very pleased with the food, service - and live music (guitar/singer was excellent). Overall experience, 4.8 stars out of 5. For that, we'd definitely return. However - the parking experience was a fiasco. Given this was our first visit, my husband circled the hotel/restaurant twice as the clogged pull-in area was full and there was no valet in sight. Also / no signage to direct us. Finally - my husband opted to pull into a reserved lot behind the hotel/restaurant and temporarily parked as I sought someone to direct us.... I walked past the valet "station" - nobody there (perhaps busy with other guests) and I headed to the restaurant to request assistance with parking. My husband followed shortly as he found the valet and asked if ok to leave the car - the male valet handed us a parking placard and said he'd take care of it, no problem. Ten minutes later a young lady valet approached our table - telling us she dug thru my glovebox to find us - asking if we realized she could have us towed. Beyond rude. We attempted to tell her the other valet had checked us in - but she continued down a shaming diatribe at our table - telling us how folks park back there illegally, etc. When we asked to speak to a manager, the young lady valet informed us that her company was a third party and she was not employed by the restaurant so our dissatisfaction with her rude & threatening behavior was nothing the hotel or restaurant manager could do anything about.... Eventually she walked away /her nasty attitude intact - and the male valet squared things so we could enjoy a lovely dinner. When exiting, no valet in sight again, we waited at the pull-in area where two other couples stood next to cars asking us where they were supposed to park or find the valet. Another couple were standing next to their car asking where the valets went, waiting for their keys to depart. Fiasco. Time for a better valet system! So Wink Wink gets a 5 but the valet is a big negative. We live here year round and there are too many options in Sarasota to deal with a valet threatening to tow us at our dining table.
