A long time ago, in the bustling town of Austin, Texas, a man named Mike Rypka bought a food trailer and a red Vespa. His dream? To start a taco joint. Like all great chefs, he filled his first menu with more experiments than meals — and thanks to some trips around town on his Vespa, and overhear...

Warm, specialty tacos are served all day to hungry foodies and other Austinites at this indoor location near campus.

In Short

I wish I had the time to sample their adult beverages, but I did try their tacos. They were excellent and full of unique flavors. I had the Independent (veggie) and the Bushfire (jerk chicken). The surprising winner of the two was the Independent. Full...

Business description (4)

At Torchy's, we're serious about one thing. And one thing only. Our food. We source the highest quality ingredients around so we can serve up the best damn taco (or salad) you've ever tasted. Cooked to order—just the way you like it.

A house was mortgaged. Credit cards were maxed out. Most importantly, some dreams came true. Torchy's Tacos opened...

Like all great chefs, he filled his first menu with more experiments than meals — and thanks to some trips around town on his Vespa, and overheard iterations of "Damn, these tacos are good!" at the food trailer, it was declared a hit. The rest...

Torchy's Tacos started in 2006 with a mobile trailer, a little red Vespa, and a man with a passion for good food. The founder, Mike Rypka, left an executive chef position to chase his dreams by investing everything he had into Torchy's Tacos. With a new, experimental menu ready to serve but no mouths to feed, Rypka jumped on his Vespa and started throwing out samples in an attempt to draw...
