This is my second maybe third time coming to here and my experience wasn't the best. I want to say COVID is the blame but idk, the server didn't seem to listen to my order so I had to send my food back. I didn't order two additional tacos but I'm pretty sure I paid for them so I ate them anyway. The steak wasn't seasoned at al! it tasted really bland as well as the rice and beans, also the tamale was dry. read more

Taco Bar - Unsatisfied very unpleasant experience - Mexican Near Me - Clearwater, Florida

Stopped in for a relatively inexpensive family lunch en route to beach outing. Lunch special of two tacos, chips, and drink for $7.99 was advertised but we decided to order other menu items. We were impressed by the large lunch portions including huge burrito and 3 tostadas platter. Nothing has any big flavor to it but I tend to not like spicier Tex Mex so the mild flavors suited my tastes. read more

Always worry at informal Mexican diners but the place was clean & the staff was very friendly. Food was great! Ordered at the counter & the food was brought to us. Really enjoyed the Mexican Street Corn...not too spicy or charred. We also ordered the streak/chorizo quesadilla, the beef burrito, & the mojo shrimp tacos. No complaints at all! We'll be back! read more

Awesome Mexican food. This place is really good, and reminded me a lot of the Mexican places I frequented in California. Too bad they're located so far away from where I live now. Still, when I'm in the area, I will hit them up. Highly recommended. read more

I don't want to fault the new gal taking our order, however, she didn't know about many of the items on menu. The food was very bland! There was no salsa to accompany the chips. They did offer red sauce which is basically Mexican hot sauce. No thanks! This was a major disappointment. We are new to the area and were hoping to find a local small business to support to get our Mexican fix. This was not it. The search continues. read more

Listen... I do not order chimichangas at authentic Mexican restaurants. But I saw they started serving them and I had to. Legit the BEST one I've ever had. This thing was gigantic! I ordered the steak and it came with queso on one half and a red sauce on the other. The red sauce wasn't spicy, which I loved. The flavor was excellent and it wasn't greasy at all. My husband ordered a bunch of different taco and loved them. I always love coming here and always forget how great it is every time we come! I saw a review complaining about how long it takes to get your food...... it's a restaurant not a drive thru. read more

Wow! I feel like I'm in my abuela's (grandmother's) kitchen, being fed amazing and authentic Mexican food!!! Food was amazing, service was good, and decor is fun! I'll be back whenever I'm in the area Be aware though that it's easy to miss- the building is set back a bit off the road in a small strip plaza that's difficult to find- but it's sooooo worth it! read more

Taco Bar - Lunch special $7.99 - Mexican Near Me - Clearwater, Florida

Check your receipts if you eat here! I ordered a Suprimo Burrito that the menu on the wall said was $12.99. I ordered a couple of tacos for my wife as well. When the little Gen Z girl be hind the counter told me the total, I thought it was high and asked her to go over the order. She told me that the Suprimo Burrito was $14.99. I said, no according to the menu on the wall the price is $12.99. She told me in no uncertain terms that that didn't matter because it rang up on here computer at $14.99. I told her that you can't advertise one price and then charge another. I asked her to fix the price. She then told me, in a very snitty tone, that she couldn't do that. That it was not her job and that her job was just to take orders. I said she had to fix the amount and she reiterated, in a very loud voice, that that was not her job. At that point I told her to cancel the order and went to get my wife. I told this extraordinarily rude little girl that we would NEVER return to the restaurant. Her nasty response was "That's fine!!" I seriously doubt that the owners of the restaurant would consider running angry customers out the door would be "fine". The food is good and I'm disappointed that I cannot go back there. But just check your receipt if you do. read more

The Diablo shrimp tacos were amazing and love the horchata drink. It's so delicious... my bf loved the chorizo taco. Will be back soon ;)

Nice little place. Food is above, nothing to brag about. I wish they would step up their menu a bit and also put the daily specials online. They only have it on a chalkboard easel by the register. Super disappointing when you've already ordered online and paid for the order read more

Stopped by this place with my boss and unfortunately neither of us was impressed. I ordered one pork, steak, and chorizo taco and the boss ordered two chicken. The best part of our meal was the queso. Every taco either had no flavor or tasted like meat out of a can. With the amount of taco places popping up this place will not last if they continue to serve food this way. read more

AMAZING tacos! Everything was so good!

3 stars for their awesome Mexican street corn! Other than that, I wouldn't make a trip back here. I thought this place would be similar to Moe's or Chipotle (where you build your own burrito, Taco etc) But it wasn't. The queso was runny and their burrito bowls were soggy. I don't like it when the rice is so mushy you can't tell what you're eating and it was mixed in with the beans to create this sad, sloppy mess. Their burrito bowls were definitely lacking flavor. Not the place to go if you're in a hurry. The same person appeared to take the orders and make the food. We had to wait about 15 minutes for our food, which was not something I anticipated going into a "quick" lunch spot. read more

WE LOVE, LOVE, LOVE TACO BAR!!! I really don't know what else to say. This review is LONG overdue, but since finding this place just recently we have been "blowing it up!" I had actually heard about it from a coworker a year or so ago, but I was not familiar with the area. This is a guy (and family) that is somewhat picky about their food and restaurants and he has been telling me how they eat there multiple times a week. My wife is also pretty picky and does not quite love food like I do and I am SICK of her suggesting Taco Bar constantly for dinner or lunch. I still go, but it's funny how many times she mentions it. I have had most of the things on the menu, if not all of them. Their burrito is huge and is easily split between to people, but me being somewhat of #fatfk still mange to order a few different tacos to over-stuff myself. Even the margarita that comes out of the juice fountain tank thingy was good and kinda stiff and was not light on the tequila. In closing, we LOVE Taco Bar. The staff has always been very friendly, the restaurant and restrooms are clean, and the food is delicious. If it was not for the GOD awful North Pinellas County traffic we would be there a lot more often than we are, but living in the most densely populated armpit in the state is not without its consequences. read more

We love taco bar! The nachos with the campechano is unmatched! Their homemade salsas are always fresh and so good!

This place is AMAZING!! We are huge foodies and it blew two of our favorite taco spots (Don Pancho Villa & Florida Gyro &Subs) right out of the water. The Al Pastor was absolutely amazing, the empanadas were incredibly fresh & huge (and had cheese in it)! They had cheap specials but we ordered ala carte. Tacos 3$. First time here and will deff be back read more

I love taco bar. Definitely plan your visits and sometimes it can take time since they are smaller restaurants but it's definitely worth the wait in the nachos are to die for. Could be a whole meal on its own read more

A little pricey for tacos and burritos. 2 waters, 1 burrito, 1 taco, 1 elote and 1 order of flautas was $27. Hall & Oates wouldn't even go for that, bruh. Was it good though? Yeah. Admittedly, it was damn tasty, but let's get real, folks. It's freaking Mexican food. Casual-as-can-be Mexican food. Can we stop charging insane prices for ethnic street foods in this country already? Not going back. read more

They should consider changing their name to Tostadas Bar, because their tostadas were on point. This is the most authentic Mexican food we've had around the area, and hope they'll stay open for a long time. They are more expensive than some taco restaurants, but I thought it was worth it. I'm excited to try more if their food. read more

Taco Bar - Tostadas - Mexican Near Me - Clearwater, Florida

Gross. Stomach ache Diarrhea. Food had no flavor at all and the tortillas tasted like they were made out of rubber. Enchiladas were basically a pile of rubbery tortillas floating in sauce (watery af) and unflavored meat Literally not 2 min after I stopped eating my stomach felt like a bomb went off and off to bathroom I ran. It's a hell no from me. read more

There is no "bar" at the taco bar. There is an abbreviated menu, with namesake tacos going for $3 each. My meal consisted of 3 tacos, chips and salsa and some sort of "fresco" beverage. My bill was $16 and change. I used a coupon for 1 taco. Without it, I would have paid a whopping $19. Una gran precio. A big price in English. This place will reserved for very special occasions because the prices are too high. Other than that, I enjoyed my meal, but heartburn over the tab gives me a reason to avoid. read more

Wow good new casual/fast food yummiily authentic Mexican place in Clearwater across from Home Depot on 19. The pork/carnitas tacos were awesome as were the chips & queso. Guacamole was very good. Nice big chunks of avocado. The hot salsas we're actually hot which I love. The horchata (vanilla flavored drink) was delicious & huge, so one is big enough to share. Very nice service too. Worth a try! Ps they were out of tamales. Best to get their by noon to make sure they still have them. read more

I've been anxiously awaiting for this place to open. I stopped in on a Sunday afternoon. They weren't very busy, about four other people eating and a couple to go orders came in after me. The place is very bare, I want to say they are going for a simple modern theme but upon walking in there was no welcoming feeling or "vibe" going on. The bar was extremely bare aside from the three drink machines and I would never have known they serve beer. There are no bar stools at the bar and a bunch of tables and one long bench along the wall. It's much smaller then I expected it to be and I feel like the bar takes up way too much space esp when they aren't even utilizing it as a bar. Maybe they were expecting it to be more of a takeout place. The menu is very simple. I ordered two tacos (one chicken & one pork) and ordered chips & salsa although I couldn't believe it was $3.25. The tacos were ok, had I known they were on corn tortillas I would not have ordered them but it didn't note that anywhere on the menu on the wall and the girl taking my order didn't seem like she knew much. The meat and toppings (cilantro & onions) were good. The bag of chips and salsa were good although I don't think it would be enough for two people to share (knowing how much I can normally eat at other Mexican restaurants) and I forgot to snap a pic. They had a choice of four hot sauces but the tiny area you serve yourself from seemed like an afterthought. Overall, everyone was nice and the food wasn't bad by any means. Definitely seemed fresh. I will go back to give them another go and try something different. I did hear a manager/owner (?) saying they plan to add bar stools eventually and will be delivering in the near future as well. read more

Dive joints are normally great for Mexican. This, is more modern with simple decorations and great food! There are limited seats on the inside, so make up your mind soon or you could be ordering to go. I love the atmosphere. Two tone walls with simple pictures to make it known that the food is Mexican inspired. I had the burrito campechano, which is steak and chorizo. It was beyond great, I give it a 11/10. It's hard to find good Mexican food in this area. So, when you do, visit often. This place is my favorite Mexican restaurant. P.S. Cerveza is only $2.50 read more

First thing I notice on the wall is 6 choices of fillings. I tried the Champechano (steak & chorizo)in a stuffed Burrito, and the Pastor (marinated pork) in a corn tortilla. Both were excellent! The basic Mexican offerings also include Tacos, Sopes, big Quesdillas, Tostadas, & Tomales. I saw 3 "Dishes," Chille Rellenos, Order de Carnitas, and Carne de res en Salsa Guajillo. (the latter is no longer on the menu.) I'm definitely going to order these dishes next time ...in the name of good Yelping of course! ;-P Salsas include a Cilantro Lime, Red Salsa, Tomatillo, and a spicy Avacado Jalapeño! Deliciosa! I also scored a Modelo Negra, my personal preference with Mexican fare! ;-) The host/server/good guy was very hospitable and came to the table to ask how we were doing. The owner also stopped by and answered questions I had about the sauces and what was made in house! The food tasted so homemade and totally satisfying! Yes, Taco Bar made my list of faves after one visit! read more

Pros: Delicious food Awesome and authentic salsa bar Desserts are amazing Large selection Friendly staff Cons: Can't think of any! read more

Passed by this place many times because it looked like a nondescript little taco carry out. Glad I checked out the ratings. A little small but comfy. Food was truly great. Mexican Street corn was fantastic. My wife got the Ranchero burrito. She loved it and wisely cut it in half to take home. I had the pollo enchiladas and they were great also, especially with the fresh avocado. Chips were hot, thin and delicious. Guacamole was fresh and great. My only negative, and a very small one, was they need a little denser shade as late afternoon sun was still very strong through current shade. Highly recommended. read more

It was a wonderful surprise to enter a cheerfully decorated and clean dining area. A cheerful server took our order at the counter and it was only a short wait for our food. I had three crunchy tacos with a different filling for each: al pastor, carnitas, & shredded beef. My companion was satisfied with a burrito too large to eat in one sitting. She felt it was a little on the bland side and there should have been more meat to rice. I loved my tacos: crisp and greaseless, topped with crema fresca. I added the spicy sauces from the sauce bar. Perfectly happy with my meal! I would go back and explore the menu more. read more

My daughter had a sweet sixteen party for my granddaughter. The food from Taco bar was amazing!!

We've gone in twice now, and found this to be our new go-to taco place since relocating to Florida and searching for solid, authentic Mexican food. It's a very casual establishment, go to the counter and place your order from the menu on the wall, pay, and they bring your food to you. The staff hasn't been overly friendly or rude, nothing noteworthy. The food however has been solid both times we've come in. It's affordable, hot, and very flavorful with every sauce bringing a unique, yet bold flavor. I would definitely recommend if you're in search of some good and affordable, casual Mexican food that makes Chipotle look like the garbage it is. Eat real food, support small business and come here. You can't miss it off I-19. read more
