Despite the COVID-19 pandemic, a popular taco stand was able to adjust and stay operating. Now selling out of his grandmother's yard, Victor Villa came up with a system to keep his customers happy.

LOS ANGELES -- Before the pandemic hit, business was booming for Villas Tacos.


"At the start of COVID, we were selling out," said founder Victor Villa. "COVID hit, we didn't know what the future held."



Then they shut down for a few months and tried to come up with a safer plan. Now Villa sets up shop outside his grandmother's house in the Highland Park area of Los Angeles and every weekend they sell out.


"We're known for our blue corn tortillas, which are then turned into our famous queso tacos," said Villa.
