History
[edit].jpg)
District Taco was founded in 2009 as a food truck in Rosslyn, Virginia, by Osiris Hoil and Marc Wallace. At the time, Hoil had just been laid off from his construction job during the Great Recession.
Encouraged by his neighbor Wallace, Hoil decided to turn his mother’s traditional Mexican recipes into a business. Together, they co-founded District Taco with a mission to serve fresh, authentic Mexican food with fast-casual convenience.
In November 2010, the duo opened their first brick-and-mortar restaurant in Arlington, Virginia. Its success quickly fueled expansion, leading to additional locations throughout the DMV area.
The company later began franchising, opening its first franchised location in 2023. Today, District Taco operates 20 restaurants across Washington, D.C., Virginia, Maryland, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, New York, and Florida.
Food

District Taco serves Yucatán-style food using Hoil’s family recipes and flavors from his home state of Yucatán.
