The 17 Best Restaurants In Tampa - Tampa - The Infatuation

"This West Tampa spot started as a grocery store in the ‘70s and now includes a small bakery, a busy dining room, and a cafeteria. Grab a spot at one of the three U-shaped counters in the cafeteria next to the regulars who've been coming here for 40 years and order some tender puerco asado or palomilla steak that comes served on top of a paper map of Florida. Entrees are huge and come with two sides plus refillable bread, and whatever you can’t finish makes for a luxe beach picnic the next day." - cheryl rodewig

5 different ways to eat! It can be a little confusing at first, but there are different parts of the restaurant that serve you in a different setting. Read the sign by the entrance. The service was wonderful, very polite and great recommendations. The food to price ratio is great with big servings!

The food was delicious! Tasted like my grand mother's home cooked Cuban food. RoIando, our waiter, was excellent and so welcoming. We will definitely be back soon.

Went there to eat for the first time with my friend, and this little guy came out… They tried to explain and say that they do bug sprays and all of that didn’t matter to me. You should be closed down until you get pest under control. Extremely nasty never go here again first time and last

After a long photo shoot with my coworker, we stopped at La Teresita for lunch—and it hit the spot. I had the bistec palomilla with white rice and black beans, and everything was delicious and full of flavor. The steak was tender, the rice was fluffy, and the beans were perfectly seasoned. Great Cuban comfort food and friendly service. Definitely coming back!

Stopped by La Teresita, a well-known Tampa staple I hadn’t visited in over 20 years. It was once the go-to spot for hearty, family-style, home-cooked meals — and while the style and welcoming vibe haven’t changed, I felt the quality of some dishes has slipped a bit. I ordered the fish filet and fried shrimp, both of which tasted a little processed, like something straight from the freezer. That said, considering the generous portions and very reasonable prices, it’s hard to be too disappointed. The real highlight of my visit was the mango and guava fruit drinks — absolutely amazing! So refreshing and full of flavor, they alone are worth a quick stop when you’re in the area. I still appreciate La Teresita for providing affordable, filling meals in a casual, homey setting where families can gather and enjoy a taste of classic flavors.
