"If you do everything, you stand for nothing."
"It's about not losing your essence as a person, or as a business."
Taqueria Los Puñales, co-owned by David Madrigal and Brian Aster, prioritizes a focused menu featuring 25 different tacos rather than a diverse array of Mexican dishes. This dedication to tacos reflects a traditional taqueria experience, influenced by Madrigal's upbringing in Guadalajara. The name 'Los Puñales' carries a complex meaning due to its derogatory connotation, but the restaurant celebrates queer culture through vibrant decor and inclusive employment practices, creating a welcoming environment for the LGBTQ+ community while staying true to their culinary roots.
