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!

Was having trouble finding somewhere to grab dinner...nothing sounded too appealing, so I jumped on…read moreYelp and found the Loli's Tacos was highly recommended and had a lot of reviews. Ok, this is where I'll grab some food. Popped in and was quickly greeted, as I looked over the menu at the counter the girl stepped up and asked if she could help me, she gave me a few recommendations. I went with a couple different tacos, a pork tamale and a bag of chips. I have to apologize, I almost always take pictures of the food before shoveling it into my mouth, but I was hungry and this looked delicious. I pictures. The reviews weee unquestionably correct and this place is incredible. My favorite (which was difficult to pick just one) was the Campechano taco...the flavor was out of this world. I had a steak taco and the pork tamale...absolutely incredible. I hate to rave about something without some sort of criticism...nothing can be perfect right? Well, the food was spot on, don't change a thing. My only small poke would have been that the bottled Coke was cold, but not ice cold...and if that's the most negative thing you can say, well then...this place is a 10 out of 10. I highly recommend...I just wish I lived in the area to enjoy it more often! Tampa, you're lucky to have a place this great!

Not your typical taco place. The menu is so well thought out. They have some standard dishes you'd…read moreexpect but it's prepared so much better with fresh ingredients and modifications that really elevate the dish. For example, nachos with chicken where it's grilled tender and flavorful, and not pulled or dry like others. The meats in the tacos are always full of flavor and the right consistency. My very favorite taco is surprisingly the sweet potato one though. It's an explosion of flavor and medley of textures. Service is always wonderful and the bartenders friendly. I love how casual and clean the restaurant is too.

Service was a 1/10 but the food was good. I came for my birthday and was even wearing a button but…read morethe server did not acknowledge me or my family when mentioning we were celebrating. The server was not attentive, we ordered drinks and never got asked if we wanted more after finishing our first which we wanted to try more options or came back to check on us. We also never got a refill on water and the food was NEVER removed from our table even with dessert ordered for the bday. We just had a dirty table throughout which is a first for a bib (Michelin Guide) restaurant that I have been to. Dessert was just dropped off and walked away after ordering it 1 minute before. Very dissatisfied with the meal and experience especially because my grandmother came to treat me and this was not worth her money, was really looking forward to celebrating my birthday.
