Since its opening in 2002, Algusto Mexican Restaurant has been voted the Best Mexican Restaurant no fewer than 28 times by the likes of The Tampa Tribune, Creative Loafing, AOL Cityguide and Tampa Bay METRO Magazine.

That alone is reason enough to visit this superb restaurant, but as well as creating Tampa’s best tasting Mexican cuisine, Algusto is also recognized as one of the healthiest restaurants throughout the bay area.

Demanding and selecting only the finest and freshest ingredients, Algusto’s founder, Alberto Alejandro Morillo, and head chef, Gerardo Gutierrez, meticulously hand-pick the produce. In the kitchen Chef Gutierrez and his staff prepare everything in-house on a daily basis, relying solely on the use of olive oil in the cooking process – no trans-fats are used, no animal fats and never any preservatives. In addition the salsas and salads are all gluten-free.

And what does all this healthy attention to detail do to the flavor? Makes it the best tasting Mexican cuisine in town is what it does – Algusto’s didn’t win 28 ‘Best’ awards for nothing! The menu features dozens of original recipes and authentic dishes, each packed with the vibrant tastes, piquant aromas, and zesty spices of Mexico.

With a delightful décor and warm and friendly staff, Algusto’s has set a new standard for Mexican restaurants. Don’t be surprised to see it collect a load more ‘Best’ awards in 2010.
