Soliz Tacos Expands to Richmond, Bringing 40 Years of Flavor to Fort Bend

Modern restaurant with colorful decor and seating, Houston.

Discover Soliz Tacos: A Culinary Legacy Expands in Richmond

If you're a taco lover in Fort Bend County, you’re in for a real treat. The beloved Soliz Tacos de Casa & Café is set to open a new location in Richmond this Thursday, October 9. This expansion marks a significant milestone for the 40-year-old Houston culinary icon, making it easier than ever for residents and visitors to enjoy their freshly made tacos.

A Family Tradition Rooted in Quality

Founded in 1984 as Soliz Casa de Tacos by Connie Soliz, this eatery has become a staple in the Houston area, particularly among patrons of Dulles High School and locals in Stafford. Co-owner Eric Otto, who is also Connie's grandson, took over the restaurant in 2014 and has been dedicated to maintaining the quality and authenticity that made Soliz famous. “Everything is a homemade recipe,” Otto emphasizes, stating that their commitment to using the best ingredients has kept loyal customers returning for decades. This dedication includes making everything from scratch, right down to the tortillas, which are prepared fresh daily.

Exciting Features at the New Location

The Richmond branch adds a modern flair with a design by Dallas-based Fusion AE, featuring a vibrant 1,400-square-foot space that seats 20 people and introduces a drive-through for added convenience. Customers can expect the same delicious menu that made Soliz popular, including their famous breakfast tacos served all day. Standout items named after loyal customers, like the Darlene and the Hughie, are set to be fan favorites as ever.

A Community Celebration with a Heart

The grand opening is anticipated to be nothing short of a festival. Starting bright and early with a ribbon-cutting at 9 a.m., Soliz has exciting plans for giveaways, face painting for kids, and even a DJ to keep the atmosphere lively. Adding to the community spirit, they will donate 50% of opening day sales to the East Fort Bend Human Needs Ministry, further solidifying their commitment to giving back to the Richmond community.

Future Expansion Plans

Otto and his business partner Michael Miller view the Richmond location as a prototype for future growth. “This will be our flagship location,” Miller notes enthusiastically. Their vision includes expanding further into Houston and potentially franchising in the coming years. “Richmond will serve as a blueprint for all upcoming locations,” he adds, hinting at a bright future filled with more Soliz eateries.

Join the Celebration!

For taco enthusiasts and Houston residents alike, the opening of Soliz Tacos in Richmond is not just another restaurant launch; it's the continuation of a culinary legacy. Don’t miss out on celebrating this delicious new chapter in the Houston food scene. Mark your calendars for October 9, grab your friends and family, and head on over to enjoy some of the best tacos in town, with the chance to win free tacos for a year! Their engaging community-centered approach ensures that you'll not only enjoy your meal but also be part of something special.
