Meet the Miami Dolphins' new 'taco partner' with a Wellington location

A halal-Mexican taco restaurant chain, spun out of a pandemic-era food truck, has partnered with the Miami Dolphins to bring its eye-catching tacos to South Florida football fans.

The culinary minds behind the fast-casual Talkin’ Tacos, which opened a Wellington location in July, have created a showy taco to exemplify the partnership. The Miami Dolphins Taco stuffs a blue corn tortilla with grilled and blackened fish chunks, avocado, shredded lettuce, mango salsa, avocado ranch, fresh cilantro and crumbled cotija.

They’re sold for $13.99 (three tacos to an order) at all South Florida Talkin’ Tacos locations. The Miami Dolphins Taco meal is not offered online.

Game-day fans can also find a variety of Talkin’ Tacos specialties at Hard Rock Stadium. The taco brand will operate a food truck in the parking lot, a cart in section 114 and concession stands in sections 231 and 341.

Talkin’ Tacos co-founder Mohammad Farraj, who started the brand with his best friend Omar Al-Massalkhi in 2020 and quickly grew it to include six South Florida locations, said he’s “absolutely thrilled” to partner with the Dolphins.

“We can't wait to bring our unique culinary creations to the fans and enhance their gameday experience with flavors that mirror the team's dynamism and enthusiasm,” Farraj said in a restaurant release.
