Miguelitos Taqueria Y Tequilas – 2702 West Kennedy Blvd, Tampa
Your first stop should be to Miguelitos overs on West Kennedy where you can find a great option for fresh, authentic tacos today. It was created by the same people that made Miguel’s Mexican Seafood & Grill, and it was voted as the top Mexican Restaurant in Tampa.

Either way, you’ll want to try one of the 40 tequilas and the tacos made with the freshest ingredients.
California Tacos – 1450 Skipper Road, Tampa
If you prefer a good old taco stand, check out California Tacos over on Skipper Road.

You can sit inside or out while enjoying a margarita with your meat or fish tacos.
