If you’ve eaten at any of our four locations, you’ve likely experienced one, if not all, of our sides. We are talking about the borracho black beans, jalapeño/garlic pinto beans, charred poblano sweet corn rice, amarillo rice, guacamole, and roasted poblano queso. But which of these six sides is the best?

With Salsa Grille voted by Fort Wayne Newspapers Readers’ Choice 2020 to have the #1 Tacos, it feels fitting to share the history of where this fantastic dish originated from. Have you ever bitten into the hard shell of a crunchy taco and wondered where its origin came from? If you haven’t yet, you may be wondering now!

You read that title right! We are having a wonderful giveaway that will help support our local zoo. You’re probably wondering how to enter and what you could win if you do. Let’s start with what we’re giving away. First off, there will be five winners. That’s right, five winners will be chosen! Each winner will receive two tickets along with two free regular priced meals (no extras) from the Salsa Grille location of their choice.

It isn’t always easy spotting or keeping track of gluten free options, that’s why we’ve compiled our list of gluten free menu items into this one blog! You may have already noticed that our online ordering has gluten free symbols next to the sides, extras, salsas and chips, but did you know you can spot those same gluten free options in our menu when you order? That’s right! Our online menu also breaks down the gluten free items in entrees. Those items have a GF next to their titles so you can easily distinguish them.

You read that right! Our Salsa Grille locations do not have a single freezer on site. That translates to the freshest ingredients from the kitchen to your plate!

As many of you may already be aware, we shut down our Salsa Grille Taqueria location in June and worked on safety measures for both it and George’s International Market. Both are now reopened and better than ever!

We wanted to let all our customers know that we truly appreciate all the support they’ve shown us during these turbulent times. We thank you for your understanding as we have been adjusting to the new regulations to keep both our employees and customers safe, while still providing the service you’ve come to know and love.

We wanted to take the time to thank everyone who has helped us during this difficult time. First and foremost, thank you to our staff for going above and beyond and continuing to work and to provide excellent food and service. Thank you for your patience and your diligence in social distancing, in doing extreme sanitation, and in continuing to provide the same excellent service despite the challenges.

It’s that time of year again where all four of our Salsa Grille locations offer delicious Tilapia fish as an option. Cut, breaded, and seasoned for mouthwateringly delicious bite sized pieces, you can be sure our fresh Tilapia will add a wonderful flavor to your favorite Salsa Grille entrees!

Not every restaurant has items that aren’t on the menu, but we do! In particular, our catering menu contains more variety than is visible at first glance, and that’s not even counting the unseen add-ons you could be ordering.

We pride ourselves on providing the Fort Wayne area with Mexican food that is not only fast, but fresh as well. With no freezers at any of our Salsa Grille locations you can be sure to enjoy a delicious meal, and it isn’t just our ingredients that are freshly purchased and used. Here’s what we mean.

Word on the street is there’s a new food truck in town. We’re proud to announce the arrival of our Salsa Grille food truck! We’ve already driven it to a few private events this year, and we will be ready next spring to take on your next big event.

Our tamales are made fresh daily and sold ONLY at our Salsa Grille Taqueria location. All of our Salsa Grille locations are proud to be freezer free, which means we don’t freeze our food for later. Not only is the produce chopped fresh, it all comes from George’s International Market, which is next to the Taqueria.

Have you ever been curious about what makes our Taquería so unique compared to our three other Salsa Grille locations? We’re here to set the myths aside and reveal it all! Our original Taquería opened in 2006 inside George's International Market, and was named George's Mexican Cafe. The focus of the taqueria is that of traditional Taquería specializing in tacos. It wasn't until 2012 that the Salsa Grille concept known today was born, with the first Salsa Grille location on Coldwater Road.
