I love Taco Tico. My wife & I were married in 1987, we actually visited Taco Tico which was in Richmond Kentucky then on our honeymoon. Fast forward 15 years two kids & a new home Richmond taco Tico long gone but we found one in Corbin Kentucky. We took our kids several times as it was right next to a theater. Great memories of great food. Now I’ll have to make my way back to Lexington, maybe for our anniversary!

First went to Taco Tico with my dad as a teen over in Louisville around 2007. We thought it was so cool when they opened one in New Albany, IN. Used to go after my brother's music lessons, sometimes just for churros and other times for a burrito or nachos. Can't remember when they finally closed that store, but I don't think it even lasted 10 years.

There was also one way out in the mountains, literally in the middle of nowhere, I think near Hazard. Nothing around for miles but then just a Taco Tico sitting there for some reason.
