If you love tacos and love bold, globally inspired flavors, there’s a new spot in Naples that needs to be at the top of your foodie bucket list: Turco Taco, a brand-new Mexiterranean fusion concept that’s now open and already creating buzz (and smiles) one taco at a time.
A Global Love Story… Wrapped in a Taco
At Turco Taco, two flavorful worlds collide in the most delicious way possible. Their menu blends the rich spices and ancient cooking techniques of Turkish cuisine with the lively, bold flavors of authentic Mexican street food—a fusion they’ve coined as Mexiterranean.
One of the stars of the show? Their Turkish Doner-style meat, cooked the traditional way on a vertical rotisserie—a method invented in the Ottoman Empire in the 19th century. As the meat slowly cooks, it’s shaved into thin, juicy slices and tucked into tacos bursting with flavor.
But here’s the twist: this time-honored Turkish technique made its way to Mexico by way of Lebanese and Turkish immigrants, where it evolved into the beloved Tacos Al Pastor. Turco Taco brings that rich history full circle—with a healthy, fresh twist.
Food You Can Feel Good About
Turco Taco doesn’t just serve food that tastes good—they serve food you can feel good about eating. Their entire philosophy centers on high-quality, fresh, and locally sourced ingredients. You’ll find:
They believe eating well shouldn't be hard—and they’re committed to accommodating a variety of dietary needs without sacrificing flavor.
Sustainability Meets Flavor
In addition to a killer taco lineup, Turco Taco is committed to sustainability. They use 100% biodegradable packaging, do everything fresh in-house, and are proud to be an allergy-friendly kitchen—bringing modern values to a centuries-old cooking method.
What’s in a Name?
“Turco” is a word historically used in South and Central America to refer to Turkish and Middle Eastern immigrants. It’s a fitting name for a concept that was born from the culinary traditions of Turkish immigrants who brought their flavors and methods to Mexico, creating a beautiful, flavorful fusion now being celebrated in Southwest Florida.
Where to Find Turco Taco
You’ll find the new Turco Taco location in Naples, serving up juicy meats, scratch-made salsas, and fresh, flavorful dishes with a story behind every bite. Whether you’re a health-conscious eater, a history buff, or just someone who loves a great taco—you’re going to want to check this place out.
