JOTORO Kitchen + Tequila Bar is located at Sparkman Wharf in downtown Tampa. Michelin Star chef and partner Joe Isidori has created a Mexican mash-up menu inspired by East LA with fabulous Asian twists and turns.

Whether it's date night, late night, or your next event, JOTORO is your perfect place. We like to say JOTORO is where mariachi meets old school hip hop. Our bar serves up hand-shaken cocktails, craft-batched margaritas, and over 50 labels of premium tequilas.

JOTORO is a full-service, 220-seat eatery that feels like a neighborhood taco joint featuring a comfortable and rustic feel with one of a kind eclectic art designed exclusively for the space. We have created two outdoor covered patios that flank the prime corner of Sparkman Wharf, which is the perfect spot for people watching and dramatic views of the skyline at night.

    Fresh & Delicious food came out real fast. Waitress seemed very unenthused about being at work, but the fast and delicious experience made up for that. A little disappointed chips aren’t served, they’re only part of appetizers.

    We had a great time at dinner before the game. Matt was great and made sure we had everything we need. Service was fast and friendly. It’s so nice to be able to make reservations on Open Table.

    Not worth the price. Nice area but all the food had a bit of an off flavor, chips were over salted, tacos poured out a lot of juice, too much onion in the guacamole. Not horrible just not great for the money.

    The Guacamole was very good, and overall, the food was pretty good. I feel they should have some more vegetarian options.

    The servers were not paying attention. I ordered refills and didn’t get one until after 20 minutes. The restaurant was not entirely packed, but everyone was yelling because of the loud music. The place was dirty. I ordered birria tacos with Korean style beef, and got normal tacos. So they could not change it. I probably wouldn’t go there again

    I really enjoyed this place! It was a concert night so the place and surrounding downtown was flooded with people when we arrived. Everyone was very nice and we enjoyed our delicious drinks and tacos!
