ABOUT US
Our story begins in a small locally-owned Mexican restaurant, La Carreta in Marshalltown, Iowa. In 2018, I re-opened the establishment that my father had founded two decades ago. I decided, not only to bring back an original local eatery, but to do things differently. Going beyond the sale of food. Food with a mission. We have been part and jump-started different philanthropic events and have found ways to feed our community in uncertain times. We will continue to put people first. We hope to set a good example for new and old businesses alike, inspiring them to find new and unique ways to run their business. No Love, No Tacos is our first organization to launch with fairness, equality, respect and dignity as core values. Join us and stand with us as we become vocal, promoting human rights and call for justice in the face of injustice. Follow us and stay tuned to all our Missions.
"Whatever affects one directly, affects all indirectly. I can never be what I ought to be
until you are what you ought to be. This is the interrelated structure of reality."

We would love to hear from you!
"My goal is to make the elections as just as possible. I am going to close on Election Day, and not only pay my employees, but I am going to go and volunteer at the polls."

"We already had a scholarship fund established at our local community college, so I partnered up with a couple of local businesses to make “No love, no tacos” T-shirts. We donate the money to the Medina Family Scholarship Fund"
