Palenque Group operates Taco Palenque, a fast-service Mexican restaurant concept founded in Laredo, Texas, in 1987 by Juan Francisco Ochoa. The format centers on drive-through service, delivering quick, authentic Mexican meals to a regional customer base. The brand has expanded from its Laredo origins to several Texas cities and into northern Mexico, reflecting a broader regional growth trajectory. Based in Laredo, the group functions as a mid-sized regional restaurant operator with a growing footprint across Texas and beyond, including recent office expansions in San Antonio. In 2024 the company announced plans to establish a central kitchen in west San Antonio, signaling broader scale and logistics capabilities alongside ongoing new-location activity such as a Hill Country Village restaurant opening.
