Just what Lakewood needs, a NEW TACO Spot! However, It’s unlikely that your local taqueria uses Vital Farms eggs, the grass-fed purveyor of yolk, in its breakfast tacos.
But that’s part of the allure of Taco Heads, a quasi-hip mecca of Mexican street food, whose genesis as a food truck for happy and/or inebriated bargoers has held sway among west-siders for six years.
Solidly sourced ingredients — not to mention killer salsa — are part of the game plan for owner Sarah Castillo. Taco Heads has now opened a second spot at 1921 Henderson. Her first brick-and-mortar effort along Fort Worth’s Montgomery Street, a two-building very-mini-compound, catered to a few more sober folks, while expanding her menu — slightly — and enhance the general joie de vivre that comes along with biting into one of her brisket tacos.
Clearly, Castillo has given much thought to just how she would entertain her legions of fans, who seem to have no problem navigating down Henderson/Live Oak toward her new digs. The main building — the dining room — seats just a handful but is worth the wait.
In a city filled with Mexican food, Taco Heads is a no-fuss, plenty of muss, and the stuff of very good dreams.
