Velvet Taco opened its third Houston area location this week in the Heights. Located at 2001 N. Shepherd Drive, this new location offers indoor and outdoor seating, as well as the company's first Houston drive-thru order pickup window. Drive-thru orders must be placed in advance.
Velvet Taco draws on several international cuisines across 20 taco options.
The company will be opening a Galleria-area location later this month and a Rice Village restaurant this summer.
