view & uploadCochinita Pibil To LIVE For!. I am Eatamus Prime. I have been eating for many years now and know the good. I never return to the bad. We have been going to the Taco Bus (formerly El Taconazo) for a few years now and EVERYTHING on the menu is GREAT!!! My wife is a semi-vegetarian and there are many things for her including seafood that she does eat. My favorite is the cochinita pibil burrito which is marinated pork in achiote and bitter orange from an ancient Mayan recipe that the thought of has my mouth watering on the keyboard right now. Excuse me while I wipe it off...OK, along with the green hot sauce this is sublime. You ever go to the door of a place and think to yourself, "should I really try this"? Well the surroundings are reminiscent of actual "questionable" places we ate at in Mexico, however the food there and at the Taco Bus is excellent with no regrets except that you have finished your plate and an empty one is staring back at you. $8 covers a HUGE burrito with beans and rice dinner, the drink being extra. I would love to get my hands on the recipe for the green sauce...lotsa hot...lotsa flavor. Service is good and rememberm "broken English spoken perfectly". What a hoot!!!
New!!!!. I have actually been to the new Taco Bus in St. Pete! The food was amazing and the parking was good! It is a great place to go with friends and family and they have indoor and outdoor seating! Love it... but i don't really know how it compairs to the one located in Tampa!
Taco Bus is a legend. Taco Bus is the kind of place you ONLY find, because a friend is bragging about his -cool- favorite place. I've been going too much, for lunch Portions are big for the $$

Best Mexican food outside of Mexico. I can't tell you how many times I've passed by Taconazo on Hillsborough and Nebraska Ave and never gave the restaurant a second thought. Then, one day, a friend took me there, and I finally realized what true Mexican food really tastes like. The flavor just explodes in your mouth. I had the chicken burrito, and I can tell you that I will never go anywhere else for a burrito as long as I live. They are inexpensive and provide a large portion of food. If you're going for lunch, get there early. The place gets packed quick.
Like stepping into Mexico. Some of the most authentic Mexican food in the States. The menu is simple and inexpensive and the ambiance is right out of Mexico. They have some of the best home-made hot sauce i've ever tasted.
