About Yolandas Tacos

Yolanda's Tacos is a fast-casual restaurant serving the traditional foods and salsas of Mexico. Our mouthwatering menu features fresh tacos, burritos, nachos, tostadas and more tasty Mexican favorites served with the Yolanda's experience. Founder Bob Walker met Yolanda Lopez of Jalisco, Mexico in Chula Vista, California during the summer of 1971. As they became friends, this retired lady took him, her 'gringo' son, aside and showed him how to prepare the traditional food and salsas of Mexico. In keeping with this tradition, Yolanda's tacos opened its first location in 1994 serving the fresh traditional food of Mexico daily.

About Wahoo's Fish Taco's

In 1988, the Wahoo brothers decided to import the fish taco to Orange County, California, and give it a unique twist. They combined the fish taco with their Brazilian favorites and Asian inspired items. The brothers decorated the original restaurant with the donations of near-by surf companies and that's how Wahoo's Fish Taco was born. Wahoo's then quickly developed a loyal and steady following, to where some locals came in daily and servers automatically knew what their customer would order. In 1990, Steve Karfaridis, joined as a partner and the one location in Costa Mesa rapidly developed into multi-locations in Laguna Beach and Huntington Beach. Today you will find over 50 locations of Wahoo's all throughout California and Colorado, including Texas and Hawaii. We are looking for franchisees who have the experience and financial resources to develop an area of at least 3-5 stores.
Wahoo's Fish Taco's initial franchise fee is $35,000 (and just $27,5000 for each additional store)
