Drive-by Taco Shop is not that hard to find. The words “TACO SHOP” are painted in big, bold yellow letters across a bright orange wall. Inside, you’ll find a narrow space that’s part-kitchen, part-bar, part-dining area. Customers are immediately greeted by the amiable staff as well as the warm, delicious aroma of Mexican food wafting from nearby.
Owned by culinary school grads Mikey San Miguel and Mai de Guzman, Drive-by Taco Shop was initially conceptualized as a food truck. The owners envisioned a taqueria that would serve authentic street tacos. People might be more used to the commercially available hard shell or Tex-Mex tacos, but the duo wanted to showcase something different. When the dust settles, Drive-by also hopes to evolve their menu into more experimental fare, toying with the ideas like a Korean-inspired taco.
Drive-By Taco Shop is a carwash diner concept serving street tacos, burritos, and nachos right beside CleanLab. With fresh corn tortillas made in-house, Drive-By Taco Shop’s tacos possess a simplicity that makes their fare all the more special.
Making a difference and keeping people safe.
