My friends and family have been going to Taco House for over 50 years. During our teenage years we would repeatedly go to the all you could eat (ordering off the menu) dinners (mostly #4s) and gorge ourselves. We actually felt sorry for the waitresses because they could barely keep up with customers repeatedly ordering entrees. The customers (us included) would order a second or third order as the waitress would deliver the food. Sometimes the waitresses couldn’t keep up and the plates would stack up because they didn’t have time to remove the plates.
We would also go and eat at all the different Taco Locations - they even had one in Villa Italia Shopping Center that served beer. Also, we would order lots of #4s and watch the Bronco games at home. Unfortunately after college I moved away and could only go to Taco House when I came back to visit family and old friends. It’s been a great, enjoyable part of my life.
Recently I had two great additions to my Taco House memories. My daughters’ boyfriend ( from New Jersey, now living in Colorado) asked my wife and me for permission to marry our daughter. My wife immediately said yes, but I had a couple of conditions , one of which was that “Every member of my family has to eat at Taco House, and so you have to take my daughter there and eat at Taco House!” Well, that requirement was met this March after my wife booked a secret trip back to Colorado for my birthday celebration at Taco House. There were 10 friends and family for my never to be forgotten birthday celebration. And my daughter and future son in law was there to fulfill his obligation. We all celebrated and laughed and reminisced about all the good times we had.
