Fusion Tacos plans Eldorado location
Mar. 14—Fusion Tacos will soon be everywhere. Or so it seems.
The 13th Fusion Tacos is expected to open April 1 in Eldorado if all permits are in place, said Perla Ramon, who with her husband, Pedro Lopez, owns the Santa Fe-based chain. The business, which began as a food truck on Airport Road, serves breakfast and lunch and offers a menu with a mix of tacos, "fusion bowls," smoothies and protein shakes.
The new location will be at La Tienda at Eldorado and will be operated by Lopez's siblings Rene and Rita Lopez.
"I think it will be our biggest one," Ramon said.
Ramon has not decided yet if the Eldorado site will offer counter service, like the other Fusion Tacos, or table service, as it will be established in a full-fledged restaurant setting, she said.
"Hopefully, it will be a full-service restaurant, but with staffing issues, I'm not sure," she said.
Ramon and Pedro Lopez started their Fusion Tacos food truck in November 2019. The business now has five locations in Santa Fe, four in Albuquerque and locations in Española, Pojoaque and Las Vegas, N.M.
Ramon is venturing beyond Fusion Tacos with her daughter Daniella Lazoya to open Delicias Cafe in the former Santarepa Cafe space on Johnson Street in Santa Fe. Ramon hopes to open the cafe by April 1.
