Owner/chef Andrew Savoie, who lives in Lake Highlands with his young family, is constantly busting open the envelope with new creations. Tonight, you can try a pecan-smoked chicken taco and one with braised beef short ribs. Tomorrow, you can order caramelized cauliflower or glazed pork belly. The menu constantly changes, and most tacos are under $5. Grab-and-go breakfast tacos are available in the mornings.

You can view the full menu here.

When you dine inside, eat on the patio, or carry out Oct. 21 from 7-9 p.m., Resident Taqueria will kick back a percentage to the school’s PTA. Be sure to mention LHE.
