corn on the cob and salsa

Excelente! The street tacos here are some of the best in the Tampa Bay area! As someone noted, don't let the seedy gas station parking lot deceive or dissuade you from trying it. The owners are a local family in the community and take pride in their service and food. If you're a taco lover like I am, you will NOT be disappointed!

Shrimp tacos. So good!!

Do not let looks deceive. This is a permanent food truck in the corner of a gas station parking lot, but they're some of the best tacos I've had in Tampa. I lived in the southwest eating authentic Mexican tacos and have been on the prowl here. I've found a couple places with good tacos and this place is one. The team in the truck works really quickly to get your food out and it's delicious. Horchata is great- not too sweet as it sometimes can be. We ordered to go flautas, tacos: lengths, shrimp, chorizo and carnitas and they were all stellar. A little higher on the price than other places I've been, but the size of the tacos and how they STUFF them with fillings is definitely worth it. They've even got a cute little patio setup if you want to eat on site- which you might because they're super good.

Best place to get Birria tacos from. The flavor is immaculate, definitely not disappointing! Customer service was good as well, the employee was super helpful! 10/10 try again.

Best tacos I've had in tampa. Delicious, juicy and made fresh. We went 2 days in a row. Best Al Pastor I've ever had. I added cheese and avocado. The staff was very friendly and I will be back next time we're in the area

Taco truck in the gas station parking lot. Has some outdoor, covered seating. Good quality Mexican food, not the cheapest but certainly beats out miguelitos up the block, in my opinion.

Lamb barbacoa, carnitas, asada tacos. The red sauce is so good! Both are spicy.

This food truck is right next to a gas station on Kennedy. It's a bit hidden off to the side so it's easy to pass by it without seeing it. The lady at the window was super nice and helpful. We had the lamb barbacoa, carnitas and asada tacos. Most places where I've had barbacoa it's been made with beef, so I was pleasantly surprised when she told us about the lamb option. The lamb is fatty but this was the favorite taco out of the three we had. They're very generous with their meats and the tortillas are good. The tacos are served simply with cilantro and onions, plus a green and red sauce on the side. Both sauces are spicy but the red was my favorite by far.

Tacos el Barracha might look questionable - located in a gas station parking lot, tucked away. But, please give it a chance! The food is fantastic! The staff is so pleasant to talk to and happy to get you whatever you want. The food comes out fast and delicious. Portions are large and very filling. Definitely try the chips - they are made fresh and the best I've ever had! This is definitely one of those places you have to go to if you like legit tacos!

Best tacos period. It's a food truck in a gas station parking lot- picnic tables behind it- amazing authentic tacos. Will go again and again

Xtreme is my favorite guilty not guilty restaurant in Tampa. Staff are friendly and they even…read moreremember you and your orders! They never skimp on the quantity, and I end up with multiple meals. I was eating here at least once every couple of weeks and even since moving away I still have dreams about this place. I normally get the Xtreme burrito with fish (it's nice that they have guac and it doesn't cost extra). I've also gotten the tacos, nachos, and fries. I don't think there is anything I wouldn't recommend. The nachos and fries can definitely be shared with up to 4 people easily. Quality is always solid. They also have vegan and veggie options which is nice for when you're bringing a group of people with different dietary needs. If you want both your stomach and soul satisfied come to Xtreme!

Another great find near our new home, and only about six miles away!…read more This was our second time ordering delivery from Xtreme Tacos, and both times everything has arrived tasting incredibly fresh. We had it delivered, and honestly, you would never know it had traveled anywhere. Nothing tasted tired, soggy or like it had been sitting around. My son is a creature of habit once he finds something he loves, so he went right back to the Xtreme Loaded Fries with grilled chicken and the Meatlovers Burrito. He LOVES both of them. Me? I love the Xtreme Nachos with chorizo, but unlike my son, I apparently feel obligated to investigate the rest of the menu. This time I ventured out and tried the pork belly MiniChanga and the ground beef Mini Crunchwrap, and I am so glad I did. I love that the mini items let you try something different without committing to another full meal, especially when you already have nachos sitting in front of you calling your name. And then there are the churros. Dear God, the churros. We tried the traditional, caramel and Bavarian cream, and they are to die for. Warm, sweet, indulgent and absolutely worth ordering even when you are convinced you couldn't possibly eat another bite. Apparently you can. Two orders in and Xtreme Tacos has officially made it into our rotation. Fresh food, huge flavor, fun choices, great portions and food that actually holds up beautifully for delivery. One of my favorite things about moving has been discovering all these new places around us, and Xtreme Tacos is definitely another winner.
