According to Tampa Bay Business Journal, the popular Mexican eatery will be opening at 2536 Central Ave. which is currently home to Buster’s antique studio.
Jimmy’s Tacos originally started out in Los Angeles but moved to Ybor City in 2018, where they were mainly serving food at festivals and out of trucks, and opened its location at 1604 N 17th St. a year later.
Jimmy’s is known for its birria tacos, birria pizza, shrimp tacos, churros and iced horchata, which is all served out of a small, yellow little window, in downtown Ybor.
The new location is expected to open next year in August 2025, and owner Jimmy Nunez told TBBJ that his St. Pete spot will also serve green, red, and chocolate mole.
