🇲🇽 Did you know 100% Taquito started as a school project at University of Houston in 1995? This Mexico City inspired restaurant was founded by Marko Garcia while in the UH Entrepreneurship program! Have you been here before?! 🌮 👩🏻🏫 Marko’s class was instructed to start a business that filled a need in the community, and at the time, authentic Mexican food was not common in Houston restaurants. (Tex-Mex was what dominated the restaurant scene.) Marko first created a food truck, and in 1998 opened the doors of his current location off 59. 🚕He designed 100% Taquito to recreate his childhood experience in Mexico City, eating street food— complete with handmade corn tortillas, vibrant decor, and even a green taxi inside the restaurant ☺️ 🍹They’ve got tasty cocktails like “Mexican Candy,” Palomas, Carajillos, margaritas and much more! 😋 Plus non-alcoholic drinks like aguas frescas, fresh squeezed juices, cafe de olla & more. 🌮 Food includes yummy items like tacos, tostadas, taquitos, tortas, quesadillas, sopes, soup, chicharrones, buñuelos, tres leches, flan! 📌 3245 Southwest Fwy, Houston, TX 77027
