    It's been a while since I've been here, and I really like the improvements they have made. It looks like they have expanded into a full table service restaurant, with a bar and everything. I really like the new décor, and of course the food was very good. Update: the nachos are hugely delicious, and the sturdy chips allow you to pull bites out rather than having to use a fork.

    El Tizoncito Grill is just this amazing family owned gem in Plant City. Senor Tizoncito himself waited on us and made us feel so welcome. I've never tried a mole before yet today I had their Enmoladas. They were spectacular. I've read about the effort it takes to make a mole and you could taste it in this. My Joe had the Coctel with yummy shrimp and we both shared an al pastor tostada. I wish we'd asked for 5 more of those. My Joe's mom got the Pozole. She hasn't been feeling well and said that this soup "was the first hot meal" she could enjoy. And, because the portions are so generous, she said that she could enjoy it for days to come. If you imbibe, the Micheladas here will literally cure all of your problems. Probably the Sangria too. The best part was actually paying the bill and seeing Senor Tizoncito with one of his little ones laughing with him. Family. Food. Love. (Micheladas). Treat your self to this.

    This place is by far one of my favorite Authentic Mexican Restaurants. Everything is so delicious. Even just starting with the salsa they bring to the table with chips for every customer. I’ve had a lot of different salsas from different restaurants who do a similar thing but these are by far the best. Definitely freshly made. Great flavor and for once they actually have a kick to some of them. I had a torta that was fully loaded and delicious. Half the sandwich filled me up. Overall great food, great staff, and amazing atmosphere. Anselmo and his family do an amazing job there. Highly recommend!!

    Will definitely go back... Staff was nice and the food was good... I got mine without the tortillas because I'm on keto and was definitely not disappointed... Only thing I really wasn't a fan of I don't like how thick their chips are if I was eat the chips and salsa I would be let down by that but the sauces were really good

    The food is ok.. the chips are really hard.. it's almost like they put 2 corn chips together before frying.. the chips and salsa is good.. I got the steak tacos.. and it just didn't have the street taco flavor.. not worth the 32$ I spent in there..

    🤩🌶️ This restaurant is amazing! Everybody who works here is so polite and professional, and they know how to cook some good Mexican food. Thank you so much for always meeting my needs. Above and beyond every time.!!! ❤️ If you want authentic Mexican food, this is your place!

    Great opportunity to be a good Mexican place in Plant City. However, the waitress did not seem to care whether I was there or not. Beans and rice were served cold and needed sent back. I was hoping for real Mexican cuisine but with the service I would rather go to MI Casa in Plant City because I'd rather have better service. Won't come back.

    This little gem is amazing. The owners are authentic and proud of their food with every right to be. Try the pork in red sauce! The experience is always on point and never a crowd which is sad because its tucked in the corner of the Southern Hospitality shopping center but deserves it's own stand alone! This isn't any tex mex!!

    Chips and dips included. Margaritas were pretty good. Enchiladas Rojas were decent. Portions were large. We did wait a long time ~45 min to get our food though.

    Great porches size and great service. The only thing that's lacking is their drinks. Their soda machine don't have a filter system in them. so sodas have a dish water tast to them other wise good place to eat

    Place smelled like a dirty wet mop.. Or they finished mopping when we got there. We were the first customers of the day. Food was not that good. Bland no flavor. Waitress was beautiful but had a arrogant and pompus attitude. We will not be returning.

    Food was ok, they did warn that the margarita was weak. I would return for another visit

    From the start to the finish, it was all good. Great chips with three different salsas to start. I had their Carne Asada, which could feed three people. I had their homemade melon drink which was big enough to take some home. The couple who own this place are nice. I am glad I picked this restaurant for my lunch in Plant City today.

    This restaurant is a little hidden but what a great find! We ate here Saturday around 5:30. The restaurant was clean and the folks were all friendly. The food was just outstanding!
