Frutilandia and Taqueria Factory Opens First Innovative Dual-Concept Location at Arizona Mills
Arizona-based Frutilandia and Taqueria Factory Fuels Franchise Growth with Dual Debut in Tempe
Frutilandia and Taqueria Factory are thrilled to announce the grand opening of their first dual-concept restaurant set to open on January 20, 2024. The new Frutilandia and Taqueria Factory location at Arizona Mills (5025 S. Arizona Mills Circle, Tempe, AZ 85282) will feature two concepts under one roof, combining the vibrant flavors of Frutilandia's fresh fruit and sweet delights with the bold, authentic tastes of Taqueria Factory's Mexican cuisine, creating convenience and a unique restaurant experience for food enthusiasts.
Founded by the Garfio Family, Frutilandia, a locally-loved favorite for over 18 years, will have authentic Latin and Mexican desserts including their signature raspados handcrafted with housemade syrups, tropical frozen drinks, aguas frescas, ice cream desserts, and milkshakes. On the other side of the menu, Taqueria Factory will offer a tantalizing variety, from freshly made salsas, guacamoles, quesabirrias, birria ramen, to carne asada, al pastor, and shrimp tacos, and burritos as well as real fruit margaritas, Mexican beers, and micheladas for refreshing beverages.

Arizona Mills is the state’s largest indoor, climate-controlled outlet and showcases 185 stores, and now customers can shop at their favorite retail stores and be just a minute away from Frutilandia and Taqueria Factory. As the first Tempe location for both Frutilandia and Taqueria Factory, the restaurant is conveniently near the intersection of I-10 and U.S. 60 and will be just 10 minutes away from Arizona State University campus.
“We are excited to premiere this unique, dual-concept restaurant in the vibrant community of Tempe,” said Frutilandia and Taqueria Factory Co-founder Gamaliel Garfio. “By combining the best of both worlds with Frutilandia and Taqueria Factory, we aim to provide our guests with an enhanced food and beverage experience in a one-stop location.”
The new Frutilandia and Taqueria Factory dual location at Arizona Mills Mall is co-owned by franchise partners Briana Garfio and Edward Valdez. The restaurant presents a welcoming 3,200 square-foot indoor space with a walk-up counter for dine-in and takeout ordering, a dining room accommodating up to 98 guests, a margarita bar, plus an outdoor dining patio with misters, and a traditional drive-thru for on-the-go ordering.
