My wife and I ate here last night and loved it. We don't eat Mexican often so we are picky. Everything was great. The food was home made and delicious. The portions were huge. We took enough home for another meal. The margaritas were great. The service was very good. We will be back.

I don't understand the bad reviews, Los Mexicanos is very good.
The quality of the food is excellent. The prices are low and the portions are huge. The margaritas are fantastic (even moreso when you can get them on the 2 for 1 special)!
I suppose the service could be a little faster and that the decor could be a little more tacky - er more "chain-Mexican-restauranty" - but, overall, it is a "must visit" restaurant for anyone who enjoys quality Mexican food and/or really good value. -

It is a Monday afternoon, the sun is glinting in hard from over the water, and we pull into a deserted side parking lot that we assume must be Los Mexcanos, after mistaking two other restaurants for our destination on our southerly path down Gulf Blvd (tiny signs abound!). Inside, we are greeted by a pleasant but tired-looking manager, so I assume the lunch rush has just ended or they have been whipping up some killer food in the back. We are seated right away, and a basket of warm chips and a small vase of salsa fill the table presently. The chips are deep-fried and delicious, so much so that we ask for a refill even after the main course is served, and use them to mop up the rice and refried beans. Good, hearty, home-cooked Mexican fare that is cooked up fast and hot, no doubt via the rapid exhaustion of cooking oils (so don't kid yourself into thinking anything is low-fat!). Margaritas [on the rocks] weren't fake-tasting, and were cold, medium strong, and pretty tasty. Good stuff.

We tried three Mexican places in our long end-of-July weekend here. I would have to rank this one last. That's really a shame because I think this has the best location... Right across the street from the Gulf Beach and near yummy ice cream shops. It isn't that the food was bad at all. It was quite good. But it was just slightly below the quality of Los Mariachis and Senor Locos, both down the road a bit. The decor was OK, and I liked the bright colors and wide halls and chunky booth seating. I would go here again.

I came here just a few weeks ago when I was visiting from New England. I was craving some mexican food since I can never find any up north.
We happened upon Los Mexicanos Mexican Restaurant on St.Pete Beach. The parking was terrible, the lot so small once you back up you face death on Gulf Blvd with the traffic flying by. Really hardly anywhere to park safely here.
Inside the restaurant you could sense the corny atmosphere. There was a banner on one wall that said Happy Fiesta. Yeah...lovely. The waitress seemed like she was tired and bored, I don't blame her. I didn't order a margarita but I saw them on other tables around the restaurant, they didn't look very good. I ordered an enchilada and a taco. The enchilada was very bland with grey-brown meat and had no taste at all despite being drenched in some kind of stringy cheese. Where was the enchilada sauce? My dad was dining with me and he pushed his plate to the side after a few bites. The waitress didn't even ask why we hadn't finished our entire meal when she came to collect our plates. I assume she sees this a lot. Unfortunately I will not be dining here again. -

Absolutely the best mexican food I have had. Chicken poblanos are great and the chicken fajitas are excellent. I saw the other negative reviews and I agree that some of the staff is a little coarse - maybe overworked?... but hey, deal with it, it's a mexican restaurant. Our waiter was great and in spite of the communication barriers, was very happy and accomodating to every little detail.
I travel the country doing software deployments and every city I go to, I always check out the stuffed chicken poblanos or rellenos. The best are at this resaurant. -

Great mexican food and service. The margaritas rock and they have a live mariachi band on weekends.

I actually never got to eat here and by looking at the other Yelp reviews it was probably better that way. We tried to go to Los Mexicanos in an effort to try out a new Mexican place since there aren't that many in the area. Unfortunately, we forgot it was Spring Break and Gulf Blvd was pretty jam packed, and as you passed restaurant after restaurant they were totally full but surprisingly it wasn't that difficult getting into the parking lot at Los Mexicanos.
This was red flag number one of many.
It turns out the place is barely full inside (just a handful of seated tables), but the majority of the people there were all waiting by the host station / cash register. In the 25 minutes we stood around waiting for service we witnessed numerous angry heated conversations between staff and the people waiting to be seated and those who were already eating. It was pretty incredible watching the host ignore us and others, while yelling at some customers and running around like a chicken with their head cut off but not actually doing anything to serve anyone. I don't think I've ever seen such a poorly run place. We ended up never being offered a menu to look at while we waited, actually no one ever interacted with us.
During the time standing around waiting to be potentially yelled at I got an opportunity to see that the appearance of the place was pretty dismal, dark and dirty. And the food that I did see get served looked sad. Not to mention the whole place smelled like dirty mop water.
Sounds awesome right!....
We ended up heading away from the beaches up Ulmerton road to our old standby Carmelita's. I'm under the impression that the only reason Los Mexicanos exists is because of tourists who don't know any better. Unless this was an isolated incident (and the other reviews don't contradict this) don't make the same mistake. -

There aren't many Mexican restaurants in the area so we're glad this one is as good as it is. The menu has all the typical favorites and everything is delicious. The Super Combination platter includes a chalupa, chile relleno, beef taco, beef and cheese enchilada, gaucamole salad, rice, and beans for only $9.75. There are several vegetarian options. Good service and reasonable prices help make this one of our regular dining spots.

This place is absolutely horrendous. I was really craving Mexican and unfortunately Mexican restaurants are far and few between on this side of the bridge. We decide to give this place a shot and I truly regret it. We walked in and waited with a huge crowd at the door, but not for a lack of seating. Instead it was due to their horrible service and lack of organization. When we were finally seated the table next to us was getting into an argument with the owner who was yelling back -- this should have been a clear sign to go. Our waiter was constantly MIA and didn't bring us out any chips. When he finally remembered to get around to it we already had our main dishes. The food was bland and my order came out completely wrong. It wasn't even what I had ordered. After telling our waiter and having him come back with a second dish (still not what I ordered) we gave up and just ate what was edible and left. Please don't waste your time here. After telling friends of our bad experience I heard nothing but similar stories.
