Here are some places to find the best fish tacos on your next vacation to the Bradenton Area.

Wicked Cantina

Birdrock Taco Shack

The Village of the Arts is where you find the most artistic creations in Bradenton. It’s also home of Birdrock Taco Shack, one of the most creative taco shops around. Tuna, lobster, blue crab and more are all on the menu. Order up and enjoy an art walk through the boutiques, galleries and shops.
