Torchy’s Tacos Brings More Damn Good Tacos to the Dallas-Fort Worth Area with Opening of Rockwall Restaurant
GRAND OPENING WEDNESDAY, JULY 13
Austin, Texas – July 6, 2022 – Torchy’s Tacos, the popular Austin-based craft-casual brand known for its Damn Good Tacos and addictive Green Chile Queso, is growing in the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex area with the opening of its Rockwall restaurant on Wednesday, July 13. Located at 2235 S. Goliad Street, Suite 120, the new location marks the brand’s 72nd location in its home state of Texas.
Torchy’s is kicking off the grand opening by offering the first 100 guests in line at 10 a.m. on opening day a limited-edition Torchy’s Restaurant Opening T-Shirt, which will grant the lucky Taco Junkie a year of free Green Chile Queso each time they wear it to the Rockwall location.*
“In 2022, it’s been a priority for Torchy’s to continue growing across Texas outside of our hometown in Austin,” said Mike Rypka, founder and CEO of Torchy’s Tacos. “Our new Rockwall location will allow us to reach even more taco lovers in the area and further solidify our presence in the DFW area. We can’t wait to welcome our fans on July 13th for some Damn Good tacos, queso and margs!”
Guests can enjoy delicious options like the Crossroads taco, award-winning Green Chile Queso and Torchy’s Taco of the Month while sipping fresh-made margaritas and signature cocktails in the 4,000-square-foot space and accompanying outdoor patio. At Torchy’s, every taco, queso and margarita is hand-crafted and made-to-order.
Highlights of the Rockwall Torchy’s Tacos menu include:
- Damn Good Tacos: Torchy’s inventive taco creations served on fresh, housemade corn or flour tortillas like Green Chile Pork featuring pork carnitas, green chiles and cotija cheese, MoFaux made with plant-based, cowboy-style Beyond Beef, the famous Trailer Park inspired by Torchy’s beginnings in an Austin food trailer with fried chicken, green chiles, lettuce, pico de gallo and cheddar jack cheese (or make it “trashy” by removing the lettuce and adding Green Chile Queso) and many more
