Guestbook
“ So we saw a couple reviews about the Birria tacos so we came down to see what the fuss was all about. Wow, what incredible tacos. Slightly deep fried with stewed beef and mozzarella cheese and a big cup of dipping sauce. It was a Mexican take on a debris sandwich you’d find in New Orleans. The pickled jalapeños and carrots were a great addition. They need to advertise this jewel and take some of the customers from the joint down the street. Thanks to the cooks at Lupita’s for great dinner, we’ll be back with friends. ”
“ We are Floridians who happened to just come from a cross country trip to California and back. We decided to stop on our way back home and what an excellent choice we made. This is right off of the I10. It’s a food truck at a BP gas station. The food speaks for itself! We went to California and had Mexican food that was ok, only to come back to Florida to have some of the very best Mexican food. Excellent lengua tacos! Thank you Lupita for an amazing food experience. ”
“ First time. Enjoyed the food. Recommended burritos. Definitely know how to fill you up just right with every bit being made fresh and love. It really shows. ”
“ Atmosphere is food truck, so this what it is. I was brought up around authentic Mexican food(my best friend was from Mexico!) - not the Tex Mex junk. This place has the best food and best prices anywhere within a 20 mile radius. Matter of fact, I make it a point to drive here regardless of where I’m at. If you like authentic, you won’t be disappointed. If you’re more Tex Mex than stick to the Taco Bell junk. ”
“ So let’s start off by saying I’m Mexican and grew up around Mexican cooking. I just moved here and have been looking for some real good Mexican food. Luckily, I found this place because it is no joke! Seriously impressed with this place, my husband and I fell in love with their birria tacos. So much flavor and great seasoning 10/10. Service is also really good. ”
