Our Story

I am Héctor, a professional chef from León, Guanajuato Mexico.
Since 2009 I have been working in some of the best known restaurants in Helsinki.
In 2015 I decided to embark on my journey as an entrepreneur and cofounded Taqueria El Rey, successfully expanding to 3 locations across the city.

After some time a change was needed, so in 2023 I decided to part ways. Which allowed me to spend more time with my family and focus on a new passion project.

So with renewed energy and enthusiasm I decided to launch a new food truck on to the Helsinki food scene.

At "Tacos el Santo" we are excited to offer authentic Mexican cuisine at various locations across the city. Check out our Instagram @tacos_el_santo_fin to see where we will be next.
