“ We found this place as we were traveling, we couldn’t believe how incredible everything was here, even the smell of the food is amazing! We couldn’t stop thinking about this place and had the opportunity to head to Tampa and of course we stopped in to enjoy this place once again. We love everything about Olmeca, the atmosphere is so peaceful, everyone is very friendly, the service is great, bathrooms are clean, and they have a cute little area for our kids to play. We will definitely be back! ”
“ Wow, Live Music just before Cinco de Mayo. Food was delicious, And VERY FRESH!. Fair Prices as well. I will be back When I am nearby. Really Good! ”
“ This place is legit. Recommendation from a local, and we loved it. Pleasant outdoor atmosphere, almost real bathrooms and shaded areas to sit. I had the steak burrito and unlike so many other places the steak was soft and chewable, not hard chewy slivers. The sauces are phenomenal, later learned you can buy the sauces to take home. We had Mexican Coke, but it had corn syrup, not sugar cane for sweetener, not sure of the deal there. I can see our car pulling in here many times in the future. Highly recommend. ”
“ Most amazing food!!!! I come at least once a week if not twice when I can!! ”

“ if you are searching for a food truck you will miss it!! It’s a restaurant masking as a food truck. They found the perfect spot. Park in the parking lot. There are lots of places to sit and enjoy the atmosphere. When you are ready to order go up to the truck on the far left to place your order. Then take your number and it will buzz you when your food is ready at the second truck. There are so many little places to sit with a varying amount of chairs at each place. It will make eclectic and really great! Most of them have some type of covering. They have a swing set in the back. They also have what looks like a prayer station. And an outdoor fire pit. They have a little puppy walking around. If you bring the puppy, eat and get a bowl of water. They have a playlist playing a variety of good music. with a Bluetooth speaker. They have two TVs mounted on a Kiosk. They have live music on Fridays. They have an outside handwashing station for customers. As well as they have two restrooms enclosed. I do not live here, but I know I will not go to McDonald’s here. I will come here instead! ”
“ This permanent food truck is one of the better Mexican spots in a town where 70% of the food options is Mexican. This one has a charming outdoor bar and patio where you can often listen to authentic live music! It's a good time. ”
