The second location is projected to open in February 2023 on West Greenfield Avenue in West Allis, and the third location is expected to open in Q2 of 2023 on West Layton Avenue. As part of an overall 13-restaurant agreement with Pentex Restaurant Group, Taco John’s is expected to open in Kenosha, Racine and West Bend, with plans to search for additional sites.
