Born in Coral Gables in 1992, Taco Rico Tex-Mex Cafe has become South Florida mainstay, offering “Decades of Spicy, Sizzling Success!” It has since grown considerably in the area and is now preparing to launch its tenth location, CEO Leland Neal told What Now on Friday.
The new location will open at 13507 Biscayne Blvd, in Keystone Plaza, the retail center located at the intersection with Northeast 135th Street. There, you’ll be able to find the same favorites available at other Taco Rico locations.
“The hottest things right now are our birria tacos and birria quesadillas, and we’ll put those up against anybody’s,” said Neal. “Our lunch specials are also very affordable, with free chips and salsa for everybody. We’ve become famous for our six different salsas.”
“Taco Rico is dedicated to upholding the same values that made our first restaurant a staple of Miami eateries – fresh, homemade Tex-Mex cuisine, a friendly, laid-back atmosphere, and customer service where we treat you like family!” says the Taco Rico website. “Each customer receives a complimentary basket of chips they can enjoy with a variety of homemade salsas at our salsa bar. Our full Tex-Mex menu and cozy dining space has been a family favorite for generations.”
The new location has faced some permit-related delays but is working to be open by the fall season.
