2023 Orlando Taco Bracket Challenge

Who has the best tacos in Central Florida?

Big

The 2023 Orlando Taco Bracket begins Friday, March 3 and ends April 16, 2023. Here are the 32 contenders. We need YOUR help to decide who moves on in each Round.

THE RESTAURANTS

We’ve picked 32 restaurants in the Orlando area that are known for their tacos. Each week we’ll have the eateries going head to head (think March Madness!) until the competition is whittled down to 16, then eight, then four and, finally, the two left standing for the championship round. The winners will be published in the June 2023 issue of Orlando magazine and on orlandomagazine.com!
