R Taco - Franchise
R Taco (Rusty Taco) is a distinctive fast-casual taco concept, featuring a variety of affordable, tasty tacos served in a lively and welcoming environment. Each taco is hand-made fresh in our open kitchen, using ingredients made from scratch. The result is authentic Mexican street-style tacos that are both traditional and inventive, each with a unique flavor and personality. Warm chips, house-made salsas, craft beers and no-frills margaritas round out the experience.
“The genius of the place is how it has adapted Mexico’s petite cilantro and onion-garnished street tacos for gringo palates without diluting too much of the food’s old-school charm and flavor." – The Eatery
The original name “Rusty Taco” comes from our founder, Rusty Fenton who, along with his partner Steve Dunn, opened the first Rusty Taco in a converted gas station on Greenville Avenue in Dallas, TX in 2010. Rusty was passionate about food, especially tacos, and he finally made his dream come true when he opened a shop that offered freshly-made authentic and creative Mexican street-style tacos.
The dream got better when customers flocked to Rusty Taco and returned again and again. More shops soon followed, as well as a new shortened name, R Taco.
