Kesos Tacos, the popular university-area Austin taco joint, has signed a lease to open a second location in northwest Austin. The restaurant will be located at 3901 Spicewood Springs Road, occupying the space which formerly belonged to Taco Shack.
“Kesos Tacos opened its doors in Austin in 2014. Born in a city full of tacos, we set our mission on bringing new flavors with a special ingredient. Our tacos are inspired from the juicy and flavorful meats of Mexico, where our founder, Jhonatan, grew up,” the official website states.
“We brought in those Mexican flavors and combined them with Austin-inspired, fresh ingredients to create our signature tacos. However, that was not enough for us; we decided to add one more special ingredient, which ultimately inspired our name and completed our concept. The special ingredient was our unique and delicious queso, which added the finishing touch to our tacos and truly made us one of a kind.”
Like most taco-centric fast-casual restaurants in the city, Kesos serves a hefty variety of breakfast tacos, meat-based or vegetarian tacos for lunch and dinner, queso and chips, and a happy hour consisting of discounted beer and margaritas.
What Now Austin briefly reached owner Jhonatan Aldama to inquire about potential opening dates and menu changes, but did not receive response by time of publication.
