Blanquitas, Tampa FL

Great service- very hospitable soon as I walked in with greeting and questions about menu. I ordered a tostadas and the Birria tacos. Long story short the Tostada didn’t make it to a picture and look at how amazing the taco looks & it was good!

I love this place. I come here for lunch almost everyday. The owners are friendly and will explain the dish to you. Go in set and enjoy the food and Horchata

The tacos here are amazing! As a recent visitor in Mexico City, I found the street tacos here at this Tampa gem to be authentic, tasty, and delicious. I enjoyed the experience, and here’s a great tip: most tacos on the menu are $2 each on Tuesdays and Fridays! Also, have a cerveza or a Jarrito’s to quench your thirst!

Went in there for the first time and was impressed very delicious tacos went back a second time and was even more impressed definitely recommend

The carnitas here were so good! I have tried places up and down Armenia and Howard. This place beats them all! Amazing service and fantastic food!

We've had the burritos, steak dinner plate, and steak & al pastor tacos and not once did the food disappoint yum
You can order ahead if your on a time crunch and best of all they're right off of highway 275.

A nice family business with great tasting steak tacos. Always clean when we eat in. Comes out very quickly. Can also order ahead for take-out. My son says the atmosphere is calm and relaxing so 5 stars that category.

We stopped in here just after arriving in Tampa. The food was delicious and the people there were friendly. We would definitely go back!

This is my favorite taco spot in Tampa! The workers are very friendly and the food taste so fresh! Very delicious definitely try them out!

I have the tostada and the gordita and it was full of flavor and delicious. The Horchata drink was very good. Not too sweet just the way I like it.
