People Often Ask, Who is Paco?

People Often Ask, Who is Paco?

The name “Paco’s” comes from someone very special to us — Paco, the founder’s miniature schnauzer. More than just a beloved family pet, Paco became the inspiration behind a dream built on family, culture, and community. Today, that dream has grown into a restaurant where every guest is welcomed like family and every meal is served with genuine hospitality.

At Paco’s Tacos, our roots trace back to Guadalajara, Mexico, a city known for its rich culinary traditions and vibrant street food culture. Tapatío is a term used to describe a person from Guadalajara, where our owner is proud to represent. We created Paco’s to bring the authentic flavors and energy of Mexican street food to Louisiana, serving traditional favorites like slow-cooked birria, trompo al pastor, and recipes passed down through generations.

That’s why we prepare our dishes using fresh produce, house-made salsas, quality meats, and authentic seasonings. Every taco, burrito, and specialty item is crafted with care, ensuring each bite delivers the bold flavors and freshness that Mexican cuisine is known for.
