In addition to tacos, customers can order bowls served with house-made chips, quesadillas, sides of queso, desserts, and beverages such as cucumber limeade and cold-pressed juice. <\/p><div><\/div><p>Wheedan is a Philly native and Penn Charter grad who got schooled in breakfast taco culture during a 15-year stint living and working in Austin, Texas. There, he played music and was director of operations at Home Slice Pizza, where he befriended Philly bagel master Philip Korshak. <\/p><div><\/div><p>Wheedan and his wife, Carinne, a Texas native, relocated to Philly during the pandemic. It was during the height of lockdowns that Wheedan set up a stand outside of his South Philly home, hawking breakfast tacos to neighbors. The ad hoc taco project later got the name Nano\u2019s Tortillas, and Wheedan found a spot in the Bok Building, where he could cook and serve pickup orders. During this time, Wheedan also became an investor and business manager at Korshak\u2019s namesake bagel joint, Korshak Bagels. (Korshak is now working on building Korshak Picnic Provisions, a corner shop built around hot dogs and house-made sourdough biscuits.)<\/p><div><\/div><p>In 2022, Taco Heart opened its doors in a polychromatic corner building on Seventh Street and Passyunk Avenue. <\/p><div><\/div><div><\/div><div><\/div><p>For Wheedan, introducing Philadelphians to the Texas-style breakfast taco has been a tall task, but he\u2019s been heartened by the reception, both from Philly locals and transplants from the Lone Star State, or \u201cTex-pats,\u201d as he calls them. <\/p><div><\/div><p>\u201cThere\u2019s so many people with a connection to this food who have been missing it, and I am so grateful and moved when Texans tell me that they\u2019ve finally found a piece of home at Taco Heart,\u201d he said. <\/p><p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/corporate-movers-usa.com\/?p=4062\">Kennett Square is capping Airbnbs and other short-term rentals to address housing availability<\/a><\/p><div><\/div><div><\/div><p>It was in the last year that Wheedan felt Taco Heart finally \u201chad its feet under itself,\u201d and he began to think about what it would mean if he \u201ctook advantage of economies of scale\u201d and opened a second location, using Taco Heart\u2019s South Philly flagship as a prep kitchen at night. He was looking into opening his next location in the River Wards when the Ardmore Farmers Market approached him. The market offered a fully-functional kitchen setup, a solid base of foot traffic, and exciting culinary neighbors. He signed on. <\/p><div><\/div><div><\/div><div><\/div><p>Large swaths of the market, located at Suburban Square, were left vacant earlier this year after Di Bruno Brothers shuttered multiple locations, including its outpost in Ardmore. <\/p><div><\/div><p>Wheedan is planning to serve most of the same items in Ardmore as he does in South Philly. While some items like salsas, quesos, and refried beans may be prepared in South Philly and transported to Ardmore, Taco Heart\u2019s signature flour tortillas will still be made fresh. <\/p><div><\/div><div><\/div><p>Wheedan also hopes the expansion will allow Taco Heart to move into the world of catering: In Austin, getting breakfast tacos for the office is the equivalent of the East Coast bagel breakfast, he says. <\/p><div><\/div><p><i>Taco Heart is set to open on Oct. 5 at the Ardmore Farmers Market (120 Coulter Ave.). <\/i><\/p><div><\/div><div><div><div>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Inquirer logo\" class=\"wp-image-4045\" height=\"160\" src=\"https:\/\/corporate-movers-usa.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/e581c3dba32f08dede6525c289913bcd.png\" width=\"162\"\/><\/figure>\n<p>Inquirer Lower Merion<\/p><\/div><div><p>A weekly newsletter<\/p><p>Want to get Inquirer Lower Merion straight to your inbox every week?
