<\/b>tacos de ciudad<\/a>, a Mexican eatery founded by Gerry Torres in North Park in 2014,\u00a0last week surpassed three million tacos sold in San Diego County. The milestone comes in his ninth year in business.<\/p>\n

City Tacos currently has six San Diego locations: La Mesa, East Village (Ballpark), Encinitas, North Park, Pacific Beach, and Sorrento Valley. With roughly 3.3 million people in the County, the milestone averages to nearly one taco per resident.<\/p>\n

\u201cI just happened to stumble across this fun milestone while going through my records,\u201d Torres said. \u201cWhile I certainly can\u2019t say that all San Diegans have had a City Taco taco, I am proud that my vision and passion has extended to nearly the same number as the population here. I am forever grateful to the loyal following of our great patrons through the years. The upcoming National Taco Day will be a little extra special this year.\u201d<\/p>\n

National Taco Day is next Tuesday, Oct. 4.<\/p>\n

Torres is originally from Mexico City and he moved to San Diego in 1992. This past June he became a United States citizen in a ceremony held at the U.S.\u00a0Citizenship<\/span>\u00a0and Immigration Services office in downtown.<\/p>\n

The City Tacos menu features traditional tacos (pollo asado, carnitas, carne asada), caseros \u201chomestyle\u201d tacos (pulled pork with mayan achiote sauce, beef shank, mahi mahi), and several other meat, seafood, and vegetarian options.<\/p>\n
