Serving size is a bit much, but hey lunch for tomorrow! It's the place to go to for Margs. The chips are fine. The service is fast, friendly, and done with purpose, which really adds to the experience. The restaurant itself is well cared for and beautifully decorated with traditional Mexican touches that make it feel warm and inviting. It's the perfect place to relax and enjoy some truly awesome food. In my opinion, it's authentic Mexican cuisine with a hint of Tex-Mex flair. Whether you're a local or just passing through, this is the place to go if you're craving Mexican food in the Dade City area.

    Del Carmen was our local go to for all things Mexican food. I had a taste for it since I had been…read morein Dade City earlier in the week, so we decided to go. We both ordered sopes which was our fave here. I ordered one, and my husband ordered the sopes platter with two sopes, rice, & beans, I took his beans with my single sopes. This time the steak tasted different and the flavor wasn't all there. It was ok but definitely have had better ones now. They use to include guacamole too. That's long gone. We ordered a horchata and pineapple agua frescas. Of course these are more expensive and much smaller now. Service was ok but difficult to locate our server. It wasn't too busy either bc it was early in the week. Not sure if we will be back here much. Now I still want more sopes bc this one didn't fill my taste buds for it. Ambiance was loud and echoey with two parties. With a full house, wow bring your headphones bc it will be super intensely loud in case you have sensitive ears like me.

    When it comes to great food, there's just something about gas stations(particularly in the middle…read moreof nowhere) that just gets it right. El Patron is no exception. A full on Mexican taqueria hidden in a gas station on a random interstate road. Tacos, burritos, quesadillas and even tortas. Everything fresh and grilled to order. I go for the steak burrito. The meat could have used a little more seasoning, but it is super filling and good value. But as far as memorable, look no further than the churros. Hot, crispy, chewy, sweet goodness. The caramel filling is out of this world good. Easily the best churros I have ever had. El Patron is another gas station hit.

    This is located in the new Krate at the Grove, located right off I-75 and SR 54. This is the…read morelatest location expanding on what is a food truck located in Dade City. The menu is somewhat limited with a number of items taped over on the menu board, so not sure what those will be. But they have a number of good tacos and burritos. They have all the standard meats and even marinated pork (pastor). The tacos are small so the average person would need 2-3 to fill them up. The burritos are bigger, but also about three times the price of a single taco. The food is fresh and I enjoyed all the various flavors they loaded in. They offer red and green sauces on the side. I also tried the beans (side) which are light brown in their juice, but not refried. Drinks are limited with bottled water, Mexican Coca-Cola in a small bottle and a couple Mexican flavored sodas. No refills. They offer dine-in with about eight tables for 2-4 people. You order at the counter and they call your number when it's ready (mine took about 10 minutes). Definitely not big enough for large parties. Outside there are some tables with umbrellas. I enjoyed walking around the Krate to see all the mural art along with the new shops and restaurants that officially GRAND open on June 4th. Check this new entertainment venue out. They will have music on a stage in the park on the weekends. It is a bit hot during the summer, so preferred time is after sunset.

    Little Mexico has been part of my life for a very long time. I first ate there when I was about…read moretwelve, back in the early 90s while attending the Catholic school right next door. My friends and I would stop in almost every week. Those meals became part of my routine and part of my memories growing up. Realizing it has been more than thirty years since those first visits makes it even more meaningful to see the restaurant still open today. I am sure the family behind it had been serving the community long before I ever moved to Dade City in the late 80s. The fact that they are still here after so many decades says everything about their dedication and the quality of what they serve. Some reviewers talk about a lack of spices, but that was never my experience. Little Mexico always delivered real flavor and real consistency. They never needed to rely on anything flashy. They simply cooked good food and stood by their recipes. If a restaurant can maintain a positive reputation across generations, it means they earned it. I truly hope the family is doing well. Seeing them still succeed after all these years brings back memories and emotion I was not expecting. It feels like a piece of my childhood is still standing strong.

    We'd planned to stop in the tiny town of Dade City, on a motorcycle ride with some friends. It just…read morehappened to no be National Taco Day so we stopped here. We all ordered the taco platter (two tacos of your choice--soft or crunchy, and steak, chicken, ground beef, or shredded beef...and rice and beans). Great street-style tacos! Two types of salsa--I preferred the verde with a little bite. And even better, the owner came out with a platter of tacos...on the house! Barbacoa, carnitas and al pastor. Too cool. Gracias! Cold horchata, tasty food, friendly service and very reasonable prices. #Winning The only downside: They don't serve alcohol. And a couple of cold ones would've gone down so nicely... Highly recommended, of course.
