Even though the city of Columbus already boasted a multitude of high-quality taco spots, the first half of this year has seen an explosion of new eateries open.

Because we love tacos just as much as you, we’ve compiled a list of some of our favorite recently-opened spots to try. Whether it be national taco chains opening, or small mom-and-pop shops, there’s plenty of variety. And we’re ready to dig in.

Peru Taco Bar

While we lost Momo Ghar’s only standalone restaurant, we gained a great new taco bar. As its name suggest, this Dublin eatery, which opened in late March, specializes in Peruvian takes on tacos, including traditional proteins like charcoal broiled chicken.

Bubbakoo’s Burritos

This East Coast burrito and taco chain opened its very first Columbus location in March, and if you haven’t stopped by yet, what are you waiting for? Bubbakoo’s leans into the fast-casual concept, offering build-your-own entree options with a huge variety of offerings.
