Our Roots, Our Story

At Raíces Fast Casual Mexican, what we do goes far beyond serving food – we share our story, our heritage, and our love for authentic Mexican flavors at every table. Raíces means “roots” in Spanish, and our roots are deeply planted in family, tradition, and recipes passed down through generations.

Born from the same family behind Pepper’s Cocina Mexicana, the Garcia-Villaseñor family from Jalisco, Mexico, Raíces represents the next chapter of our journey. While Pepper’s celebrates the classic Mexican comfort dishes our guests know and love, Raíces introduces a modern, fast-casual approach, blending time-honored flavors with fresh ideas and innovative twists. It’s where tradition meets creativity, and where familiar favorites are reimagined to stay exciting, vibrant, and fresh.

Our menu is made from scratch using high-quality ingredients, featuring everything from authentic tacos and burritos to fresh burrito bowls and healthy bowls packed with bold flavor. We proudly offer options for every lifestyle, whether you’re craving a hearty burrito, a lighter healthy bowl, or joining us for weekend brunch filled with Mexican-inspired morning favorites and handcrafted drinks.

At the heart of Raíces is our commitment to family—both ours and yours. We strive to create a welcoming space where guests can gather, connect, and enjoy authentic Mexican food made with care, passion, and purpose. By honoring our heritage while embracing innovation, we continue to put our personal twist on tradition, keeping flavors fresh, experiences memorable, and our roots at the center of everything we do.
