About Us

OUR STORY

The idea for Great American Taco Company began many moons ago over the Santa Fe mountain ranges. Chef and creator Pat Duran was just a fuzzy-headed kid, trying to hold his own with eleven brothers and sisters. He enjoyed watching his mom work up some magic in the kitchen. Pat says, "Born and raised in the Great American Southwest, all we ever needed was a tortilla and some imagination, and anything could become a taco."

Mexican, Southwestern, American

With more than 25 tacos to choose from, we have something for everyone. Vegan, counting calories or going low carb? We can make any taco naked (no shell, just the delicous goods inside) or on a stuffed avocado. Not a taco fan? (this is where we take a deep breath). We won't hold it against you. Check out our Taco Relatives for delicious burritos, quesadillas, and our famous America's Frito Pie.

We're also known for our Daily Specials and Happy Hour. Relax with a margarita on the outdoor patio at either location. No time to dine in? Both locations have the convenience of a drive through.
