Fun and modern twist on Mexican, using traditional ingredients, minus all the fillers. Local art, live DJs, and made from scratch margaritas give everyone a reason to celebrate.

This was my first time at Bar Taco and certainly will not be my last! Every item we tried was delicious and made with super fresh ingredients. We had the Guacamole and Plantains to start. both were awesome! Then we tried the Mojo Pork Carnitas and Baja Fish tacos and both flavors were amazing! While the tacos are small they are definitely packed with flavor! And of course you can't have Mexican food without Margaritas, which were excellent. I will definitely be back on my next visit to Hyde Park!

I was just in Tampa last week and I had to revisit Miguels (Again) for what might possibly be one of the best dishes I have ever had anywhere. About a year and a half ago my customers invited me to Miguels for dinner, and I have been back every single time I have gone back to Tampa. And I have eaten the same thing every time I have gone. It is my favorite meal. The seafood chimichanga is an incredible dish combining seafood and mexican into a dish that I literally had twice in 3 days on this last business trip to Tampa. Whomever came up with the idea of putting Shrimp, Scallops, Crab Meat, and Cream Cheese into a Chimichanga should be given sainthood in my opinion. It is that good. You make thing a Little pricey @ $24 but assure you worth every bite.

We were celebrating a graduation and had some time before heading to a dinner party, but we were all starving decided to stop at Urban Cantina for a snack or two. It was excellent! Yes, they do charge the for the chips and salsa, but it's only $2.00. The chips are good and salsa is excellent! I definitely recommend stopping in for some fun food and atmosphere.
