La Bodega

La Bodega has a great selection of Latin Groceries as well as a fantastic little Taqueria. All of the tacos are made with love and are really good.

I truely love this place. The food is very reasonably priced, fresh, and delicious. The lady who is always at the register is a sweetheart and i feel bad for forgetting her name.

First time at the bodega. I had two tacos carne asada with rice and beans. (#3 on the menu) Flavors were good, produce was fresh, steak was juicy, and the staff was very kind and patient. I will be coming back for more tacos!

Tiny Mexican grocery store with excellent food and service. We came in for lunch with no expectations and left very satisfied. This place will not disappoint. The food portions are good they use a lot of cilantro with homemade hot sauces and salsa! So yummy! 😋 If you like Mexican food you have to check it out!!! 😉

Listen, this ain't no high class place, and you do have to grab your own drinks out of the fridge... The food is phenomenal and service is great.

Best food you'll have all trip!

yum!!!!! this is a great lil mexican joint, cant believe it took so long to find some good rice and beans

Picked up Carnitas for dinner. Came in a kit including cilantro chopped onions and wedges of lime. Got some delicious home made tortillas. Fantastic and affordable!

My husband love this little Mexican market to go and eat mexican food! The food is very reasonably priced, tasty, and the girls speak English, too. It's one of those hidden jewels to enjoy! Our grand daughters loved the food, also!

Very Authentic. Had the Taco plate. Both the pork and chicken were delicious. Also tried the tamales. 3 for $5. Great prices. The condiment bar was well stocked with salsa, pico de gallo, cilantro, and more. Adela was very helpful and knowledgeable about her food. Made us feel right at home.

The food is superb, the service is excellent, the interaction of servers with customers is to be commended i visit every chance i get, not only for for the attention i get but the food ahh! The food so tasty.!!! Only problem it's always busy!.

Chipotle/Taco hell/Grasshopper people, time to try some real food! Authentic, cheap, friendly, and full of atmosphere. Get the giant corona from the attached grocery and order anything from the menu - it's all good. The made-in-house hot sauce at the salsa bar is killer (and killer hot).

My husband loves their menudo! Only place he will get it. I love the steak fajitas. Our go to place for homemade Mexican food!

I went for the little street tacos Carnitas is my favorite. I wood post a picture but they were so good LOL. It's also a Mexican grocer with meat counter. And all the different kinds of peppers you could think of. Check them out!

Holy YUM. Picked up some carnitas for taco night. They give you the meat, cilantro, onion, lime and tortillas if you want. It’ll make your taco night the best you’ve ever had.

Amazing, authentic Mexican food!! Very delicious. Ignore that you're in a small market because you will not be disappointed! Very friendly. Ps home made tortillas!!

I go there because it reminds me of Mexico where I lived 16 years ago in Merida Yucatan and that's where the owners are from great tacos and Latin American foods and the tortillas are Amazing for a 1.50ish hot moist I get a pack every time I pass by I have a massage studio in gulfgate next door so it's my go to for REAL TACOS!

I have lived in Sarasota for over 40 years,(my whole life), and can tell you, if you want truly AUTHENTIC Mexican food, then La Bodega is IT! If you're looking for Taco Bell type Mexican food, then don't bother coming here. This menu is AUTHENTIC. You order at the counter, and might not recognize some of the dishe' s names, but if you inquire with the super friendly staff, they will happily explain, in detail, the tastebud tantalizing dish,(seriously, I've had them all- n they're ALL delicious!), you ask about. The condiment bar is a MAJOR plus. Pico De Gallo, as well as a plethora of sauces and other greens available to dress your dish precisely how YOU like, just adds to the already amazing flavors. There's a small Hispanic market attached for anything you might need to pick up on the way home as well,(there's American items as well),. Been going here for years, and will continue. Love it!

Friendly staff, and delicious food! The meat here is SO tender and flavorful. Best little Mexican place hands down.

Best authentic tacos in Sarasota! They also have a varied menu of unique Mexican dishes and a long list of meats to choose from.
