A tastylicious new Mexican restaurant, Tepeyac Taquitos, has recently opened downtown Santa Barbara. The new Santa Barbara Taqueria is inspired by the Rodriguez family's Taqueria named “Taqueria Tepeyac” that was started many years ago in their hometown of, Durango, Mexico.
It was named after the street on which it was located. Although Ernie was born in Santa Barbara at Cottage hospital, Ernie has been there many times and has listened to the many stories of the family (nine uncles, and one aunt) and how they all worked in the restaurant there. Abuela (Grandmother Eloisa) started the business and it grew successful. Ever since Laura and Ernie met, he has dreamed of opening the family business here in Santa Barbara.
