Anytime we're in Florida, we have to stop here. The food is absolutely amazing--every option we've…read moretried has been fantastic. The portions are generous, the service is fast, and the staff are kind and efficient, even during the busiest times. They offer both indoor and outdoor seating, and honestly, tacos outside just hit differently--there's no comparison to other shops in the area. The place is small, so be sure to order a good amount--you'll probably want more after your first bite! Don't skip the sauces either; they're flavorful and pair perfectly with everything. Pro tip: Have exact cash or your card ready. The line moves quickly, especially during the lunch rush. Beyond the food, the shop itself is worth exploring. They carry a wide selection of grocery items, western wear, fresh pan dulce, and other authentic finds. Before you leave, treat yourself to a sweet pan dulce or a refreshing paleta. You won't regret it. Highly recommend--this spot truly delivers on all fronts

The guacamole may have been made fresh that day, but it definitely wasn't made to order. I prefer more chunks in my guacamole though. The fajitas were okay, the steak was pretty sparse and seemed like edges of steak or just shredded steak perhaps. I forgot to take a picture because I was hungry by the time it came out.

So good and friendly!…read more After a long day of moving, we were looking for something delicious to end the day with, we found it at Hacienda.

Charm City posted a cheesesteak weekly special that we first tried on April 14th, and it was…read moreexcellent. The sandwich was fresh, packed with flavor, and topped with a savory white cheddar sauce on a seeded roll. Everything tasted high quality and well executed. A week later, the special was extended, so we went back and ordered it again on April 29th. Unfortunately, the sandwich was noticeably different the second time around. The consistency and texture of the steak had changed and felt more like frozen pre-sliced beef compared to the fresher, more consistent steak from our first visit. Even comparing the photos side-by-side, the difference is pretty noticeable. It was a bit of a letdown after such a strong first impression, but hopefully the restaurant can find a happy medium if they decide to bring this special back again.

They started us off with two salsa's - one regular and one "spicy" so you can kind of mix your own level of heat. Tortilla's were great and we went with a margarita and a yuengling to go along with the salsa and the small order of guacamole. I ordered a lunch combo of a chicken burrito and a ground beef tamale. The tamale was one of the best I've ever had - the beef, the sauce and the cheese were perfect. The burrito was also great, just not quite as yummy as the tamale. There was rice that I ended taking home because I was totally full. Wayne had the special Mexican quesadilla served with guacamole salad. Alex was our server and he was quick, efficient and totally "on it". The space was nice, lots of Mexican art. We lucked out!

It's located behind Anytime Fitness on 540A and Bartow Rd intersection- I have a membership to Anytime and the truck is almost always busy any time of day I go to the gym. Or at least a few people are there unless the weather is really bad. And it's for good reason. It's definitely a little slow because they make everything fresh, so if there's a line you'll wait a good minute for the food but it's truly worth it. Especially the street corn mix, oh my word it's creamy and a little cheeses and delectable! Everything else I've tried I have enjoyed. Their birria is the real deal. Plus, they've significantly upgraded their setup the few years I've been in that area- a nicer covered area with a few picnic tables to sit at. Their prices are also pretty decent, especially for the quality meal you get in return.

I discovered Mega Mercado, an amazing Mexican market and restaurant, on a trip to Lakeland, Florida…read moreand was extremely impressed with the food the restaurant was serving. Mega Mercado is located in a shopping plaza located in the shadow of the Publix corporate building. Walking in, the restaurant part is to the left. I was greeted warmly and quickly seated. They brought me salsa and chips and the salsa had a nice kick to it and was absolutely delicious. Looking over the menu, i went with three tacos, an asada taco, a chorizo taco and a cabeza (beef cheek) taco. I think it is worth noting that most of the tacos are $2.49 each, really a remarkable deal, especially at how amazing these tacos were. As I said, the tacos were amazing and deserve several mentions (once again, they were amazing). A tough choice, but if I had to pick my favorite out of the three,it would be the cabeza taco. If you are in Lakeland, this is an amazing place to try.
