The new Atlanta restaurant is having a grand opening on August 23, 2024, beginning at 10 a.m. To celebrate, the first 100 guests in line will receive a limited-edition key chain, which entitles them to a year of free green chile queso with any dine-in or takeout order (one redemption per day).

Tacos Torchy’smenu is known for pushing the boundaries with taco fillings and flavors, often incorporating unique ingredients and creative twists. The menu is the most expansive of any taco restaurant, including its famous green chile queso.
