Taco Palenque has a new location coming to Upper Kirby. According to a Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation permit, the new Taco Palenque is expected to open at 3797 SW. FWY.
The permit further details that construction of the new Taco Palenque is expected to start in September and wrap up in mid-February of next year. If all goes well with permitting and the estimated 1.2 million dollar construction project, the new Taco Palenque should open by next spring.
“RENOVATION & ADAPTIVE REUSE OF AN EXISTING BUILDING FOR A NEW TACO PALENQUE RESTAURANT,” the permit for the new 2,975 square-foot Taco Palenque reads.
What Now Houston reached out to the supply chain director at Palenque Group, Luis Alberto Elizondo, who was listed on the permit. Unfortunately, we did not hear back by the time of this publication.
“The pleasing delight of fresh natural ingredients and the fulfilling goodness of authentic handmade recipes made to order that make us proud,” the website reads.
“And that’s what Fresh Mex is all about, at Taco Palenque.”
For those unfamiliar with Taco Palenque, the brand is known for its authentic Mexican border-style food, like the signature pirata taco, which consists of fajitas, beans, cheese, and a crisped flour tortilla. Taco Palenque fans can expect the same menu that the brand is known for to be in place at the new eatery set to open in Upper Kirby next year.
