    Awesome

    I haven't had a real horchata and glass bottle Coke in so long this place is a gem on the roadside... stop and support the locals

    Passing through and fell upon a great family owned Mexican restaurant. So glad we stopped because the food was excellent. The chips and guacamole was fresh and all good came out hot. I choose the tacos birria (forgot to take a picture) and my husband ordered cheese enchiladas.

    Just a simple little restaurant.

    No one was there when I first came in, but a very friendly server was at the desk. I asked for a vegetarian taco and got two delicious vegetarian tacos. They were fresh and delicious. The server was pleasant and friendly. They should be busy. It was worth a stop on the way to Sebring.

    To the staff at Taco Express "Thank you" for the burrito it's was yummy! I went all day without food, because I wanted to make my drop on time and pick the next load up, so this place is very convenient, because it's right on the street, so it was a quick stop and go. The restrooms are clean the staff was very friendly and polite. I'll definitely stop by again, if I'm in the area.

    Birria Tacos #14 on the menu.

    The tacos I ordered were great, authentic style and served in just a few minutes! This was just a roadside stop for me but the staff made me feel welcome were very accommodating. The service was fast, friendly and the food was tasty! Thank you for a great experience!

    Burrito Super-Especial. Steak. Really good.

    Such a great find. If you're in the area I highly recommend you check this location out. The Burrito Super and Tacos Birria are so good. Excellent value. Great little family run spot.

    Fresh chips, salsa, & guacamole with chicken fajitas and birria tacos.

    Driving through Ft. Meade at dinner time and found this gem! Really delicious food prepared fast and with care. Corn tortillas seemed to be homemade, fresh salsa, hot sauce and really great guacamole were all perfect accompaniments to the fajitas and burria tacos. Service was friendly too. Nothing fancy here just great food at a great value. Highly recommend!

    Heaven on a Fork! Even after ten years of visits, the bloom is not off the rose!…read more For this lunch to-go visit, I was in the mood for spicy food, so I went with their Chorizo meal. So how was it? Read on to find out. Arriving- They are on Main St., just a few seconds off US Route 27 so they are simple to find. There is a private parking lot that can be a bit of a challenge as they are insanely popular. Ambience- It is a combination Mexican market and restaurant that is so common in this part of the state. There are quite a few tables and booths that are kept nice and clean. You order and pay the cashier, and they'll call you when it's ready. This is a very, very casual place! BTW-This place has a spotless open kitchen. Not to be missed is the complimentary, with purchase, Salsa Bar. Delicious! There are plenty of small to-go containers to sample the bar items if you're taking your meal home like I did on this visit. Customer Service- Everyone that works here will be Hispanic, but all the customer-facing folks speak excellent English. They are always friendly, and I've never had a problem. Pro Tip- If you are so inclined, before you place your order, walk to the coolers at the back of the market and grab yourself a cold brewski! Pro Tip- The menu board is in Spanish but there are English menus readily available. Food- All your Mexican favorites, both meats and seafood, in very generous portions. I ordered the Chorizo meal @ $14. My picture is a little deceiving. See that slab of delicious spicy sausage? There is another piece the same size, directly underneath! I put the box on my scale at home and it was just under 2 lbs.! That's a lot of lunch and it was awesome. Conclusion- So they have over 100 reviews @ 4.5 stars and they deserve it. It's an inexpensive, casual "Heaven on a Fork" kind of place!

    If you're looking for some authentic Mexican food and you are in Avon Park... this it it!!!…read more We love the food here. It's a walk-up counter and the menu is above and they also have menus you can order from. As for service, they do bring you the food to your table if you are going to eat here and there is a salsa and condiments bar with a little bit of everything to top your tacos or any other plate you order. The restaurant is part of the store, so you can shop for items for your home and even get a piñata for a party!!! We love the place and it good home cooked authentic food.
