My 1st meal there and the two ladies working the counter was very good. It has a small space for eating in and plenty of condiments. You place your order at the counter, then walk past the sitting area to pay at the Texaco register. If you are not aware of how this works, you will not get your meal and have to wait in line, as if you were getting gas or snacks. Overall, it is a good meal that is hidden in a Texaco gas station.
This might be one of the best kept secrets in all of Sarasota. I was highly anticipating the food because being a truck driver, some of the best foods that I have experienced have been at little dives. This place did not disappoint. 1st off, shout out to the lady in the register in the Red shirt. She ran the place like a bona-fide all-star. No matter how long the line got, she got everyone situated in a timely matter. The food came out hot and fresh. There were many dishes I did not expect to see on the menu. We traveled all the way from Davenport because a friend recommended the place.
I'm specifically trying to find the best breakfast burrito in sarasota, and this place has all the right ones. Exceptional sauce bar.

I have been looking for a good Mexican food spot since I moved here 2 years ago. This was one of the best I have tried so far. Don’t let the fact it is in a gas station turn you away. The food is great!!
Food is always A+! I've never had anything here that wasn't delicious. Sometimes there is a bit of a wait for your order, but it's still worth it. Prices are pretty good for what you get.

Never have a bad experience here. They do get a little busy around lunch time but other than that their turnover is pretty quick, so your are not waiting for a long time. I do recommend if you are in a rush call them ahead and place your order.
Update 5 years later: We came back to the area and couldn’t wait to try their tacos again. Would like to report that they are still very good.
Very good tacos! Taco de Barbacoa is probably one of the best taco in the menu. Affordable but delicious food and the owners are very friendly too. Recommended for anyone who wants to experience authentic Mexican food.
If you want authentic Mexican food, this is a great place. Prices are very reasonable. The food is good and the customer service is great. There is limited seating, but a place to sit and relax and enjoy your meal and watch the big screen. I definitely recommend this place if you enjoy Mexican food.
This place has legit Mexican food. It's in a gas station and a little grungy so you're not here for the atmosphere. If you love shady taco joints, this is it.
You've never had Mexican food till you've had this food. Even though it's in a gas station, you feel like you're in a little Pueblo in Mexico. Hands down best of the best!
