Construction is underway for a Taco Palenque to open in San Marcos this fall.

The Mexican cuisine restaurant chain will be built in place of an abandoned Burger King on the I-35 frontage road. The old building has already been demolished.

Taco Palenque is a Laredo-based fast-casual restaurant chain serving breakfast tacos, parrilladas and more. Since its opening in 1987, it has opened location across South and Central Texas.
