We grill our Carne a La Plancha on a hot flat-top and serve it fresh every single day.
The word ‘plancha’ means flat iron or steel griddle in Spanish. So when we say ‘a la plancha,’ we simply mean that we cook the beef on a flat, hot metal surface. Because the beef sits directly on the steel, it gets an even sear across the whole surface. As a result, you get a cut of beef that is tender on the inside and deeply golden on the outside. This is, in fact, the key difference between plancha cooking and open-flame grilling. On a flat-top, the beef never loses moisture to a flame. Instead, it cooks in its own juices while the surface crisps up perfectly.
This cooking style comes from a long tradition in Mexican kitchens. Because it produces such consistent results, cooks across Mexico have used it for generations. If you want to learn more about traditional Mexican cooking methods, this overview of Mexican cuisine gives a helpful background.
A flat-top grill gives the beef even, direct heat across the full surface. Because of this, every part of the cut cooks at the same rate. As a result, you get no dry edges and no undercooked center. In addition, the beef holds all of its natural juices during cooking, so the final texture is both firm and moist at the same time. That is exactly what makes our Carne a La Plancha stand out from other grilled beef dishes in Tampa.
When you order Carne a La Plancha at Suy’s, you receive a full, complete meal. In addition to the grilled beef, we include three sides on every plate:
Furthermore, we also serve traditional Mexican soups on our menu. For example, our beef soup comes with tender beef, onions, cilantro, rice, and warm tortillas on the side. We also prepare menudo in the traditional way — with cow belly, onions, cilantro, rice, and tortillas. Because we focus on dishes we prepare well, we do not serve pozole. However, we offer plenty of other choices. View our full menu in Tampa to see everything we make.
We do not use pre-packaged sides. Because we cook the rice and beans fresh in our kitchen, they taste the way traditional Mexican sides should taste. In addition, the tortillas come out warm with every single order, so your plate arrives complete and ready to eat. That is a standard we hold ourselves to because it is the right way to serve a traditional Mexican meal.
Tampa has many Mexican restaurants, and several of them serve grilled beef. However, most of them do not have a dedicated Carne a La Plancha dish with the flat-top cooking technique at its center. At Suy’s, we focus on this method because it produces the best result for this cut of beef. Because we keep the seasoning simple and the technique traditional, the dish tastes the same every time you order it. Read more about our story and how we cook.
Our customers come back regularly because the flavor is consistent. The beef has the same sear, the same seasoning, and the same tenderness whether you order at noon on a Tuesday or at 7 PM on a Friday. In fact, this consistency is one of the things our Tampa diners mention most often. Because our kitchen team genuinely cares about every plate, the quality does not change from one visit to the next.
In addition to our grilled dishes, we also serve authentic soups. For example, our beef soup uses real cuts of beef and comes with onions, cilantro, rice, and warm tortillas. Similarly, our menudo is made with cow belly in the traditional style, with the same sides. Because we do not try to serve everything, we do our best dishes very well. However, if you want to explore all our options, our full menu is here.

Q: What does ‘a la plancha’ mean?
‘A la plancha’ is Spanish for ‘on the griddle’ or ‘on the flat-top.’ It simply means we cook the beef directly on a flat, hot steel surface. Because this method gives even heat across the whole cut, it produces a better sear than most other grilling methods. You can also read more about the plancha technique here.
Q: Is Carne a La Plancha the same as Carne Asada?
They are related, but they are not the same dish. Carne asada is typically grilled over an open flame or charcoal. Carne a La Plancha, however, is cooked on a flat metal surface. Because of this difference, the texture and flavor are distinct. The plancha method gives a more even cook and locks in more of the beef’s natural juices. So if you enjoy carne asada, you will likely enjoy Carne a La Plancha as well — but they offer a different eating experience.
Q: What sides come with Carne a La Plancha at Suy’s?
Every plate includes seasoned flat-top grilled beef, Mexican rice, refried beans, and warm tortillas. Because we make all three sides fresh in-house, the plate gives you a complete, traditional Mexican meal without any extras needed.
Q: Does Suy’s serve beef soup or menudo?
Yes, we do. Our beef soup is made with real beef cuts and comes with onions, cilantro, rice, and warm tortillas on the side. In addition, we prepare traditional menudo with cow belly, also served with onions, cilantro, rice, and tortillas. However, we do not serve pozole because we focus on the dishes we prepare correctly. See our full menu here for all available dishes.
