7greens salad eatery has closed shop on Hamilton Row in Birmingham and a new Mexican eatery has taken its place. The Taco Stand Taqueria is a family-owned taqueria (taco shop) owned by Carlos Lopez. The franchise operation began in Allen Park in 2016, and now boasts locations in Garden City, Flat Rock, Taylor and Riverview in addition to the newest location on Hamilton Row in Birmingham. The Lopez family originally hails from the state of Jalisco, Mexico, and uses recipes that have been around for generations. Lopez claims that their vision is to become the best and quickest street-inspired Mexican food in the Detroit area. “We serve high quality food to the community, and at the same time share our culture to our customers. We believe that there is no food better than homemade food, and that’s why we are here,” he said. On the menu, customers will find a wide variety of tacos, quesadillas, tortas, burritos and bowls – all made with fresh ingredients. Meat selections include steak, chicken, marinated pork, and chorizo-Mexican sausage. Exclusive for the Birmingham location, all dishes can be made vegetarian. The eatery includes indoor seating for 24 customers and is working to obtain patio seating for the warmer months. 344 Hamilton Row, Birmingham. thetacostandtaqueria.com
