Seriously, you had me at tacos.

Jesse and Irma Leal began a small business in Muleshoe back in 1957 that gave root to a West Texas and New Mexico tradition that is known far and wide.

The couple began to dream of owning a restaurant featuring traditional Mexican dishes. Irma learned the art of making fresh quality tortillas in her father’s factory, and soon perfected her mother’s homemade recipes for great tasting Mexican food. To make their dream a reality, the couple opened a small tortilla factory on the outskirts of Muleshoe, Texas.

In 1959, they moved the Tortilla Factory to a bigger location and the couple began to envision a full-fledged restaurant. “El Nuevo Leal’s Restaurant” opened its doors in 1968 in a café-style setting in Muleshoe. The children were literally “raised in the restaurant business” and worked alongside their parents throughout the years and all of the children are still involved in the family business. Victor owns the “original” restaurant in Muleshoe and the Amarillo location was established in 2004.

This is a huge shout out to one of the most creative and hardworking artists in the business. Bart and I have worked together in the past. He designed an award-winning campaign for our Facebook Page a couple of years ago. Most recently we have been working on a fresh look for our sixty-three year old restaurant...a project with a high level of sensitivity and sentiments. He considered our long history and envisioned our future and knocked our new logo out of the park!
After being forced to close our dining area we stayed in a harried constant contact yesterday to fast-track our new curbside menu. He worked with us all day and never uttered a word of complaint about the hundred changes I requested on the fly.
We are up and running again today due in large part to Bart's heroic efforts. He is a true professional in every sense of the word but beyond that, he is a brother..helping another brother in my time of need. I will never forget. I can't give him a higher recommendation.
