Torchy's Tacos was founded in 2006 in Austin, Texas, when a man with a dream bought a food trailer and a vibrant red Vespa. Mike Rypka, founder of Torchy's Tacos, built a menu out of experimental tacos that were coined by fans as "Damn Good." By living the Damn Good mantra, Torchy's Tacos is always innovating to deliver the most unique tacos, award-winning queso and refreshing margaritas in the taco game, including the Taco of the Month, an untraditional taco offering that keeps our taco fans coming back for more.
