America's Taco Shop Franchise Overview

About America's Taco Shop

America's Taco Shop offers a dining experience unlike that of your typical quick-service restaurant. To put it simply, they're passionate about good food. You're not going to find their recipes in a cookbook - they use the same recipes that America's family has perfected in their kitchens for generations.

Franchise History

When America Corrales, the visionary behind the authentic Mexican fare of America's Taco Shop®, first came to the U.S. from her native Mexico, her most precious possession was a collection of her mother's hand-written recipes. For nine years, America shared these authentic, flavorful Mexican foods only with her friends and husband Terry Bortin. Terry would sit and enjoy America's meals at their kitchen table in Phoenix, Arizona where they would dream together about someday serving these home-cooked meals in a restaurant of their own. That dream became a reality in 2008, when America and Terry opened the first America's Taco Shop in Phoenix. It was an instant smash hit and it didn't take long for customers to flock to America's Taco Shop for their unmatched Carne Asada.
