Tacos are not just for Tuesdays at Backyard Taco. The origins of the taco shop lie with a man and woman from Mazatlán grilling food in their backyard and then later translating their love of family, food and flavor to what became a restaurant whose name carries the memory of those beginnings. The simple, authentic food prepared with the best-quality ingredients shows up on the menu with items such as burritos, grilled tostadas and grilled gorditas. Taco lovers can choose carne asada, chicken, shredded beef or al pastor tacos. Catering, delivery and a free loyalty app are available.

ADVERTISING CONTENT

Cold Beers & Cheeseburgers may have a simple name, but there is nothing simplistic about this popular restaurant and its menu. All of its burgers are hand-formed and cooked to order. Burgers and the rest of the menu, which features wings, sandwiches and salads, are made fresh and in-house on a daily basis. For those bold enough to try, there is a burger challenge in which contestants can have their enormous meal on the house if they finish it within a certain time frame. They can choose from over 150 beers to wash it all down while catching a game on one of the restaurant’s HD televisions.
