“ One of my favorite spots for Mexican food! Plaza Mexico always hits the spot. The food is fresh and flavorful! The vibe is super fun and relaxed, and the staff is always welcoming. And the margaritas? Dangerous in the best way. This place never disappoints, whether I’m grabbing dinner with friends or just craving tacos midweek. ”
“ Plaza Mexico in Sarasota truly exceeded our expectations! The moment we walked in, we were captivated by the beautiful decor – colorful, lively, and full of authentic Mexican charm. It really set the tone for a great dining experience. The restaurant is impressively clean, which is always a huge plus, especially when dining with our 15-month-old. The staff was welcoming and accommodating, making it surprisingly easy to dine with a toddler. They brought out a high chair promptly and made sure we were comfortable. We started with their warm, freshly made chips and salsa, which were absolutely perfect. The salsa had just the right amount of kick, and the chips were warm and crisp – a great start! We also tried their ceviche, which was incredibly fresh and bursting with citrusy flavor. Each bite was light and refreshing, with just the right balance of ingredients. And, of course, we couldn’t resist the jumbo organic margarita. It was deliciously smooth and refreshing, a perfect treat to pair with the meal. Dining here felt easy and enjoyable, even with a little one. Plaza Mexico is a fantastic spot for families and anyone looking for authentic Mexican flavors in a warm, inviting setting. ”

“ Best Mexican restaurant I ever ate in my life. I been to at least 20 in my entire lifetime. This place it’s just perfect, and they give you a lot off food ”
“ Great food and service, margaritas delicious, the mangonada was exceptional, my husband and I were a little disappointed with the cinco de mayo celebration, because they didn’t offer free shots of tequila to celebrate like in other places ”
“ This place is lit! I wish I had one of these restaurants near me. We absolutely loved it. They have live music, serenading and awesome birthday celebrations. The plates are enormous and filled with the best authentic Mexican food. They have a fresh guacamole bar that comes to your table and makes it right in front of you! A must if you're in the area and worth a drive! ”
“ We had an absolute blast! Environment was so fun, Maria our waitress was phenomenal, food and drinks were delicious and the mariachi band was a really fun treat! I think my favorite was when the band played Baby Shark for a table with kiddos! Food was large portions, so even though I paid 20 for my dish, I have alot of leftovers. Very worth the price! Our first time here, and we will for sure be back! ”
“ Excellent Mexican Restaurant, part of a chain of 7 locations, all but one in Florida. (The other is in the Carolinas.) This location is on the mainland, just over the Stickney Point Bridge from Siesta Key. Plenty of parking. About 10% to 20% more expensive than typical Mecican Restaurants in the area, but the food was excellent and the portions enormous. The 19.99 chicken fajitas came sizzling on a large plate with an accompanying large plate of beans, rice, guac, sour cream and shredded lettuce. I had to bring half home for dinner that night! (And I'm a big eater.) My wife got the 17.99 enchiladas banderas plate with a beef, chicken and cheese enchilada each, covered with sauce and lime with beans and rice. She stuffed herself silly. M-F they have about half price lunch specials until 2:45PM. We loved the elotes corn cob on a stick appetizer with sour cream, spices and lime. ”
