In 1988, one of Dora’s youngest son’s opened the first El Taco Tote restaurant in Ciudad Juarez, Mexico. Inspired by his childhood memories
decided to start a very authentic and new concept of tacos.
Founded by George Lee in 2003, Big City Burrito promises "fast, fresh Mexican food."
From colorful tortillas to outstanding fillings and homemade soups, Big City Burritos give their customers a delicious array of Mexican cuisine at affordable prices. Restaurant reviews in each city where a Big City Burrito franchise has been established have been positively glowing. The festive atmosphere, array of sauces and salsas, and the ability of the customer to choose fillings and toppings for tacos, burritos and quesadillas have brought satisfied reviewers coming back for more. With the original store located in Fort Collins, Colorado, and only 10 other franchises currently in existence, there's tremendous opportunity for growth. And if you have one or more colleges in your town, your chances for success increase exponentially.
