Edisto Island, SC – The Ella & Ollie’s (http://www.ellaandollies.com/) team has been quietly creating plans and shaping the menu for a new concept, opening today. Executive chef and owner Brandon Rushing has opened E&O Taco adjacent to the existing Edisto Beach restaurant, offering a cultural collaboration – a Lowcountry take on traditional taqueria fare.
The playful, street-food inspired menu offers a selection of starters (uno), tacos (dos), sides (tres), soups (sopas) and sweets (dulce). Similar to the Ella & Ollie’s menus, guests can expect the offerings to rotate based on the season and availability of fresh ingredients. From the opening menu, highlights include a Korean Pork Belly Taco with sticky glaze, crushed peanuts, quick pickled veggies and cilantro; the EO Chimichanga with seasoned rice, ranchero beans, smoked chicken and brisket, pepperjack cheese, pork green chili, guacamole and salsa; a Shrimp Taco with queso fresco, green tomato chow chow, and creole aioli; Cilantro jalapeno slaw; Vegetarian black beans; and Pork Green Chili. Guests will refer to the in-store, chalkboard menu for “dulce” selections.
To complement the playful fare, E&O Taco offers a selection of signature margaritas and Latin-inspired cocktails, including their take on the ever popular Michelada, as well as a beer list and house red and white wines.
The approachable, street-style taqueria offers indoor seating for 16 guests and outdoor seating for 30 within the coastal influenced space. E&O Taco is open for lunch from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Monday through Saturday at 21 Fairway Drive, Edisto Beach, S.C. 29438. For more information, stay tuned to Ella & Ollie’s on Instagram.
