How did a single taco stand in Cheyenne, WY become one of the nation's largest, most beloved Mexican food chains in existence today?
A winning combination of bold flavor and fresh quality, for starters. These one-of-a-kind tacos were instantly a hit and quickly caught the attention of two business-savvy locals. Unable to deny the delicious opportunity at hand, the pair purchased the franchise rights and named the restaurant after the man who started it all - John Turner.
The rest is history!
