    Burrito Preñado
    Max E.

    Not too long ago, I noticed this spot as a restaurant but never got around to trying it. The restaurant either closed or relocated, so I lost track of it, but now I believe they operate out of gas stations or food trucks. The location we visited was in a gas station. It has a charming vibe, with ample parking available around the gas station, and there's seating inside where you can enjoy your meal at the Taco Bus. The place was well-maintained, so we decided to eat there. They offer a pretty extensive Mexican menu, including wings. I went for the 'El Burrito Bol,' which comes with Mexican rice, black beans, and your choice of protein; I chose steak, and it was topped with lettuce, cheese, and pico de gallo. They definitely don't skimp on the meat, which I appreciated. My wife opted for the Tostada, a flat tortilla loaded with refried beans, ground beef (other protein options are available), veggies, and finished off with sour cream and cheese. My son chose the Burrito Preñado with ground beef but no beans. He was a bit put off by the corn in his burrito. It seems they also mix corn into their Mexican rice, along with peas and carrots. Personally, I enjoyed it. Their prices are reasonable. For comparison, Taco Bell has a dish called 'The Cantina Chicken Bowl' that costs $8.00, while the El Burrito Bol is $8.00 on Fridays it's usually $9.99 on other days. Given the portion size and quality of the food, it's an easy choice. I'd gladly pay the extra $2.00 for the 'El Burrito Bol' any day. You can either have one of their staff take your order or use the self-service screen to place it. This is definitely a great spot to try some Mexican cuisine.

    Not a lot of places are open in this area after 9-10pm. I looked on Yelp to try to find something and this place showed up as 24/7. I looked at the picture's & immediately decided to go there when I saw elotes! The place is inside of a gas station. It's nice and bright & clean. When you go in they have displays that allow you to place your order. There was 1 guy in the kitchen and he didn't say much to the customers. So many of us had questions but he seemed too busy to help any of the customers while he was cooking. I placed my order on the kiosk and waited for about 10-15 mins for my order. Once the food was ready the guy finally spoke and apologized about the wait. I almost gave this place 2 stars because of the customer service BUT when he finally spoke I felt 'seen' if that makes sense. I ordered elotes, quesadillas & chips. I can't speak on the quesadillas because they weren't for me but my kids seemed to enjoy them. The chips were ok & the elotes were ok. It was very spicy and the corn seemed a bit over cooked.

    just look at this queso

    The food is Authentic , I ordered the chimichanga and the queso they put on top is the BEST queso i've ever had. Maybe it's an original recipe but I devoured it. The size as well was extremely huge so just one is good for two people. The owners were nice , they're really wholesome and yes the restaurant is connected in with a gas station but that's the idea it's a taco bus. Some of the best restaurants you'll eat at are the one tucked off on the side. Heading there for breakfast right now

    This restaurant is located inside of a gas station. Most people take out from here as it is located in a convenience store. However the tables and restaurant was very clean and there were no parts that grossed me out. The food at this place was great! It was very vegetarian friendly but also had many meat options. I would definitely eat here again it is a very casual, quick food spot.

    Shrimp 2 Tacos

    Nice late night spot as there is not much to eat in the area after 9pm. Like that they have multiple vegan and plant based options. Went on a Thursday and they had .99 empanadas. The shrimp taco was very good, shrimp were very large. Had the plant based steak and it was very salty, wouldn't order it again as it had a weird consistency. The three guys working were friendly and helpful. Food came out quick. Love the bus and design of restaurant. It's located inside the shell gas station.

    This is the Seafood burrito for 10.99.  Very small.
    Shannon S.

    This is what was inside my burrito....need I say more? Does the shrimp look "blackened" to you? Does this look like $10 worth of meat? Do you see any cheese? I had 3 pieces of shrimp and a minuscule amount of fish in my "seafood burrito". PLEASE DO NOT WASTE YOUR $ on this place. To make it worse I heard another customer order a Carne Asada burrito and the cashier asked "what's that...steak?", wow!!

    Mold in Flan
    Phalan W.

    Awful. The service is the slowest I've ever seen. The meat is dry and chewy. The tacos taste bland and gentrified. You're not given any sauce or toppings for tacos. You can never get anyone on the phone if there is an issue with your order. The last straw was getting flan with mold in it and not being able to reach anyone by phone to address the situation.

All was inviting, and a great way to remove yourself from the very busy atmosphere of the Marriott lobby which was crowded. We sat at the bar since we loved to be surrounded by the activity of the place. We started off with their special spicy margarita and ceviche. Loved that it was more Peruvian style, and not the tomato based one. More my preference of the lime taste. Then for dinner my husband had the strip steak, and I had the chicken fajitas. Both were flavorable, especially the sides, especially the corn cake type side, that were served with the strip steak. Both were seasoned well. My husband's flank steak, though delicious, was overcooked. The bar tender was attentive and answered all our questions about the menu, and provided some great suggestion including which entrees were most popular and also her favorites. Definitely will come back. Will also order the carne asada again but make sure to tell the server to cook the steak more medium rare than medium.

We started with chips and salsa which set a great tone, the tortilla chips were perfectly salty and the salsa was solid, no notes there. It was also Taco Tuesday which means one free drink with a taco order, so naturally I had a classic margarita (also solid!) and went with the al pastor tacos because the sweet plantains on top had my name written all over them. Full disclosure: our waitress actually recommended the chicken, carne asada, or birria... so I can't say I wasn't warned lol! The pork did run a little dry, but the flavors were genuinely enjoyable and the authentic corn tortillas were a highlight for me. The yucca fries were a touch dry as well but still decent with the accompanying sauce. My friend also let me try her octopus, not typically my thing, but the flavors were nicely done! Honestly this feels like one of those spots where I just ordered the wrong things for my first visit, which means I have to go back and do it right. The chicken, carne asada, or birria are calling my name next time. Would definitely recommend checking it out, especially if you can catch happy hour!

    If you are in Ybor City and trying to enjoy yourself without lighting your wallet on fire, Barrio…read moreTacos is a very smart move. What I appreciated most is the build your own taco option, because it allows you to order exactly what you want without paying for a bunch of filler ingredients you were going to push to the side anyway. When you strip it down to the proteins and toppings you actually like, the cost savings are real. In a place like Ybor, where prices can creep up quickly, that matters. Now, the à la carte menu can feel a little confusing at first glance. It is not the most straightforward ordering system if you are just breezing through. But once someone walks you through it and you understand how to piece your order together, it becomes completely worth it. You end up with exactly what you want, and you are not overpaying for things you did not ask for. The vibe was great. The service was friendly and patient, which helps when you are trying to decode the menu. And the location is ideal. There is an outdoor patio with umbrellas on the sunny side of the street, which gives you options. You can sit in the sun if you want that warm Florida glow, or you can stay shaded if you are protecting your skin but still want to be outside watching the action unfold on the strip. And let's be honest, half the entertainment in Ybor is people watching. Add in the random roosters casually strolling around like they own the neighborhood, and you have a full show with your meal. I loved everything about this place and highly recommend it if you want to save a few bucks on food while still soaking up everything Ybor City has to offer. Good tacos, good vibes, good people watching. Hard to beat that combination.
