Taco Samich Celebrates 17 Years

Taco Samich is celebrating 17 years in business after having become a Tehachapi staple. Owners Irma Sanchez and Alfonso Gracian have contributed to Tehachapi's Downtown beautification by renovating their buidling inside and out in recent years, and what a difference those renovations have made.

If you haven't tried Taco Samich you are missing out. They serve authentic Mexican food with excellent and quick service for dine-in or take-out.

They offer breakfast, lunch and dinner and a large menu, which includes tacos, tortas, taco salad, taquitos and large burritos (big enough for two meals).

All of these come with your choice of asada, adobada, carnitas, buche, lengue, pollo, chile verde, chile colorado or fish.

Breakfast burritos are available daily from 9 a.m. to 11 a.m. with your choice of chorizo, sausage or bacon.

There is even a salsa bar which includes radish slices, fresh salsas, lemon slices and pickled jalepenos.

Daily dinner specials are available, most are served with rice and beans:

Monday - Chicken Mole

Tuesday - Chile Relleno

Wednesday - Chicken Wings a la Mexican

Thursday - Baby Back Ribs

in Salsa Verde or BBQ

Friday - Tilapia

Saturday - Menudo

There is plenty of seating if you want to eat in. Taco Samich also serves beer.
