Anybody visiting Lockport should seriously<br />
consider a stop at Taco Patio, an<br />
upscale fast food restaurant, serving some<br />
seriously fresh, yet reasonably priced,<br />
Mexican food in a contemporary setting.<br />
Since its opening seven years ago, Taco<br />
Patio has seen its family business grow<br />
and flourish within the community.<br />
In addition to the great food, the Taco<br />
Patio family has shown a lot of love for<br />
the community. From the Old Canal Days<br />
parade to a variety of fundraisers to supporting<br />
local schools and organizations,<br />
the business has become a true part of the<br />
community.<br />
“We really love the area and all the people<br />
that dine here are great,” said Christos<br />
Giannakopoulos, owner of Taco Patio.<br />
Taco Patio is so much more than just<br />
good fast food. Here are a few new and<br />
exciting features.<br />
Margaritas & Mariachi<br />
Taco Patio is serving a selection of<br />
imported and domestic beers, as well as<br />
margaritas.<br />
Where does the mariachi band come in?<br />
“We wanted to bring something fun<br />
once in a while for the customers to enjoy,”<br />
said Nasia Katris, manager at Taco<br />
Patio.<br />
So customers can be on the lookout for<br />
the first Margaritas & Mariachi night. It is<br />
definitely going to be something new and<br />
exciting in the new year.<br />
New technology to make things easier<br />
and faster<br />
Everyone who has been to Taco Patio<br />
knows one can call in an order and have it<br />
hot and ready upon arrival.<br />
Customers can even pick up through<br />
the drive-thru, which is great for those<br />
days people do not feel like getting out of<br />
their cars.<br />
Now, Taco Patio has added some updates.<br />
Download the Taco Patio app to order<br />
from a phone or order online — quick,<br />
new, no-hassle ways to order when those<br />
taco cravings hit in the middle of that<br />
meeting.<br />
Catering<br />
Taco Patio’s catering program is a wellkept<br />
secret, about which many are slowly<br />
learning through word of mouth from<br />
very satisfied customers.<br />
“Customers would come in and ask<br />
for food from Taco Patio for their parties<br />
and work functions because they loved<br />
our freshness and taste, so we decided to<br />
make it official,” Giannakopoulos said.<br />
Taco Patio can accommodate any size<br />
party, including office meetings, baby<br />
showers, school functions and birthday<br />
parties. The restaurant also delivers and<br />
sets up everything. It is pretty flexible on<br />
how far employees will travel.<br />
Satisfied customers have said the portions<br />
are amazing and the food smells<br />
fantastic, and guests have raved that it is<br />
excellent.<br />
Taco Patio launched the official catering<br />
menu this year and plans on adding<br />
dessert options, as well, this holiday season.<br />
So, if you are having a holiday party<br />
and want to spice things up, call Taco Patio<br />
and really make it a fiesta!<br />
