WHY TACOTARIAN?
Tacotarian was founded in 2018 and since then we've won numerous awards and have been recognized nationwide. While our concept is plant-based, we appeal to a wide variety of diners, which is the basis for our success. The bottom line is, it's really good Mexican food that just happens to be vegan.
Innovative Menu
Our proprietary menu items like seitan al pastor and jackfruit birria set us apart from every other plant-based Mexican restaurant. We have more than 15 different types of tacos on our menu!
Inclusive Appeal
While we may serve plant-based products, 75% of our customers don't identify as vegan or vegetarian. Our food appeals to everyone. By incorporating alcohol and other staples we attract a diverse clientele.
Community Focus
Tacotarian donates a portion of profits to local charities and local charities love us. This community minded approach drives repeat business month after month.
Scalable Model
The global plant-based food market is projected to continue to grow to 162B by 2030 according to Bloomberg News. Our model allows you own your own plant-based restaurant with the potential to own more.
