Nine years ago, a dream for Taylor Mason began when she served her first taco at her father’s 55th birthday party.
"We stayed there for three years. When we first got there, we could barely rub two nickels together, now we our own shop on Taylor Street."
When the COVID-19 pandemic hit in 2020, their world was turned upside down and catering orders came to a near halt. 'We went from 25 to 30 caterings a week to about two or three," said Mason."I could fill about two deep fryers with tears that it took to open this space. It’s not easy." The pair applied for federal and state COVID relief funding, but didn't qualify because they did not have any employees. So, they got creative, leaning on their community for help, not only to stay afloat, but to eventually open the doors to their brick-and-mortar taco shop.
"It takes a village to raise a business, and a lot of other people stepped up for us," Mason told NBC Chicago."People gave money through an investment campaigned called Honeycomb Credit. We were able to raise $50,000 which helped us open the doors here among other grants," Mason said.The restaurant is open Tuesdays-Sundays from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. The menu features four signature tacos along with weekly specials .
