Today we pause the chaos for something bigger.

To all the men and women who sacrificed so much for this nation, thank you!

For the service, the courage, and the lives given in protection of others, we remember and honor you today.

And to the families carrying that sacrifice with them every day, we see you too. ❤️🇺🇸

From all of us at Tacocat: thank you, and may we never forget.

Turns out not all heroes wear capes, some wear a PFD and rescue cats in distress. 🛟🐈

Huge shoutout to our friend Jackson from the Flying Pigs for locating our missing chef and bringing this furry criminal back to safety. We couldn’t be more grateful. ❤️🌮

The chef is reportedly:
• slightly traumatized
• demanding snacks
• somehow still early for his shift

Thank you everyone who shared, searched, laughed, and joined the chaos. Gardiner stays weird in the best possible way.

MISSING CHEF ALERT
One of Tacocat’s 3 chefs has been CATNAPPED.

Last seen at Tacocat armed with a knife and absolutely zero culinary training. We suspect catnip involvement.

If you currently have him… we just want to talk. 👀

In the words of Liam Neeson:
“We will look for you. We will find you. And we will bring you back home.”

REWARD
Return our missing chef and receive: ONE FREE TACO A DAY FOR A WEEK

No questions asked...(Okay… maybe a couple.)

Today we celebrate ALL kinds of moms:

The cool moms, the sporty moms, the fashionista moms, the 24/7 problem solvers, the moms who pushed us out into this chaotic world and the moms who adopted us.

For all the sacrifices, the lessons, the late-night talks, the unconditional love, and the million little things nobody notices…

Thank you.

We hope today you get spoiled a little, laugh a lot, and absolutely DEMAND tacos. 🌮👑

Happy Mother’s Day, Gardiner 💜

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Yesterday one of y’all walked in and asked:
“Be honest… is your birria legit?”

My answer:
“One way to find out. Order the tacos and tell me. And if they’re not? Come back and say WHAT THE HELL.”

He laughed:
“Man, I would never do that.”

But honestly? That’s the deal.
If something misses, tell us.
That’s how food gets better.
That’s how people get better.

About 10 minutes later he came back to the counter mid-bite and just hit me with the 👊:
“Legit as legit can be.”

Then later that night he left this review.

And that part means a lot.

Because yes, we do take pride in this food.
A ridiculous amount of pride honestly.

The salsas are made with the best ingredients,
The meats are cooked fresh.
The food is prepped daily.
No shortcuts. No “good enough.”

Just real food made by people that actually care about what lands on your belly.

We may be the little taco spot next to the gas station… but we’re trying to do it right every single day.

Thank you for taking the time to tell us what we do right, Gardiner ❤️ — THE SPOT BY TACOCAT 🌮
