Creative tacos, breakfast options, and queso served
"Despite Tacodeli having a tightly closed fist over the Salsa Doña recipe, variations started popping up around town. It’s at Veracruz, Torchy’s, Jo’s, and even at my favorite place that I am in all honesty not going to disclose here because I hate lines." - Daniel Modlin
"Torchy’s Tacos makes a lot of tacos during Austin City Limits." - Erin Russell
"Austin-based chain Torchy’s Tacos literally dropped tacos from buildings throughout Austin on Monday, using, yes, food parachutes from a floating-food company Jafflechutes. When asked about leftover tacos on the ground, a rep said that they didn’t find any." - Nadia Chaudhury
"The fast-growing taco favorite has been advancing multiple downtown projects, including custom cedar-and-brass storefront work and new signage for a Northshore location, both aimed for completion by year-end." - Nadia Chaudhury
"An Austin-born taco chain opening its first downtown location inside the Northshore mixed-use development at 110 San Antonio Street. The fast-casual menu will include tacos such as fajitas, fried avocado, jerk chicken, ahi tuna, and migas, along with queso, salsa, and chips; it’s not yet clear whether this location will serve beer and margaritas. The restaurant will preview the space with a free taco party the day before opening—offering free tacos, drinks, chips, and giveaways from 5–8 p.m.—and features bar-height tables with sliding tabletops designed by Drophouse Design. The concept began as a food trailer in 2006 and has since expanded across Texas, Colorado, and Oklahoma, with a history of high-profile moments including a presidential visit." - Nadia Chaudhury
