Tacodeli is coming to FW.
Austin tacos are coming to Fort Worth: Tacodeli, the Texas taqueria founded in Austin in 1999, is opening its first location in Fort Worth at 4500 Hartwood Dr. in a sweet spot on the corner of Tanglewood that was previously a realty office.
This 2,500 square-foot space features seating for 50 inside and 52 on a patio built around a long-standing tree, with heating and cooling structures for all-weather dining.
According to a release, it'll open in the fall.
Tacodeli is open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, with benchmark items that include tacos, plus a few salads and bowls, along with the usual chips, salsa, and queso. There are also margaritas and beer.
“We crack each egg and prepare by hand all the ingredients that end up in your taco...we cook everything from scratch,” says Roberto Espinosa, Founder of Tacodeli in a statement.
Breakfast tacos include various combinations with eggs such as sausage, chorizo, beans, and cheese.
Lunch and dinner menu items include beef, salmon, shrimp, pork, and vegetarian and vegan tacos filled with mushrooms, sweet potatoes, and black beans.
The chain has seven locations in Austin, two in Dallas, one in Plano, and two in Houston.
“I spent a lot of time back in college, visiting buddies from Fort Worth," Espinosa says. I remember we would start our night with cold beers, ice plugs in the bottom of frosty mugs at Angelo’s, then move on to all the best dive bars in town! I have great memories of Fort Worth and those friendships still continue to this day.”
