Tarek's Café

Incredibly delicious food and large portions every time !! My favorite place to eat in Tampa by far, I visit often. They have a lot of variety, so you can always find something to eat. The chicken curry specialty dish is exquisite I highly recommend it if it’s on their menu. As said by Tarek, he cooks for lunch and dinner and only charges for lunch 😋😋

Absolutely delicious AND halal!! I’m from Houston where I’ve had my fair share of philly cheesesteaks, but Tarek’s is hands-down the best I’ve ever had. The chicken philly, chicken chimichanga, and Cuban sandwich are also FANTASTIC. The owner is so kind and pleasant. Everything about this place is awesome (except the lack of parking but I order ahead and run in to grab it, it’s totally worth it). I’ll keep coming back to try more of the menu as it’s officially my favorite lunch spot, and now I always look even more forward to lunch time. Highly highly recommend giving Tarek’s a try! You won’t regret it.

I am USF Alumna and never knew this shop was on campus! Just discovered it today when looking for a quick bite. The owner was so nice and has a rapport with everyone that walked it! I ordered a chicken quesadilla and fries that he makes it in front you. The price was reasonable for the amount you get. I will definitely be back!

Their drugs’ sandwich is insanely good, definitely the best brunch sandwich in town. Muffins are also exceptional. Super convenient location in USF, great quality, great service

I’ve walked by this cafe for a year now an finally checked it out. This food is gooood!! The fries are crispy and seasoned. And the Cuban sandwich that I got was juicy and flavorful! There are quite a few different foods to order here and they have a nice drink selection too. Also… their honey mustard is killer! I would definitely check this place out.
