SUCH A GEM I’ve been to Jimmy’s a few times and every time have been so impressed by both the food and the service! It’s a great spot to bring everyone as they have vegan vegetarian, gluten-free, and delicious options for all needs. They also started selling alcohol and the peach margarita is my personal favorite! I love eating there, but grabbing to go is also top quality, truly one of my favorite spots in Tampa!

yum! Passed this many times and finally decided to stop by and try. It was so yummy, fresh and flavorful. They were packed too, on a Tuesday. They moved pretty quick though. It is small but they do have a decent amount of outdoor seating.

Jimmy Tacos is a taco haven that’s all about delicious simplicity. With just tacos and soft drinks on the menu, they have mastered the art of these hand-held delights.

I am known as a boring taco eater, literally only having meat and cheese in them, but I have been wanting to branch out and try birra tacos and heard Jimmy’s Tacos had the best ones in Tampa. I was brave and ordered as is, even though the onion pieces worried me. I dipped them in the consommé, and let me tell you, the tacos were DELICIOUS! Joined the clean plate club here.

Tried this family owned taqueria tonight. Delicious!! Super affordable and ample serving size. We got the birria tacos, quesadillas and the taco dinner. Also had happy hour peach margaritas. If you’re in ybor, give this place a try.

Cute little spot. Definitely as good as many of the reviews said. My son and I both had tacos but we’ll definitely be back to try other things. Great place to reat, hang and people watch in the outdoor seating area. Small parking lot that’s free but pay for parking available on the street. Only thing that would make this place better is if they sold margaritas!

Delicious Mexican food right in Ybor City, Tampa FL! Comes with a side of Tampa Bay history as its right across from the famous & one of a kind Historic Emilio Pons Cigar Factory!One of their delish foodie options: Try the Quesabirruas with the cilantro, onions, and guacamole! Staff are friendly and you order and pay before sitting… so service is quick too! Must try!

Quesabirria Tacos and Burrito each came with 3 great lime wedges (nothing as sad as going somewhere and having one sad, dry lime wedge for a whole meal,) as well as a chipotle hot sauce on the side (it packs a punch!).

Hands down some of the best tacos I’ve had. We got the birria tacos and a quesabirria, and they were so good we actually went back to order more. The food was presented very well, it was piping hot, cheese was melted beautifully, and flavor was on point.
