Sarah Castillo, a Fort Worth native, is a culinary innovator and managing partner of Taco Head, Sidesaddle Saloon, Tinies, and La Pulga Tequila.

Sarah attended the University in Texas, and has lived in Colorado and New York where she honed her skills for curating a true restaurant experience that includes sites, smells, and of course, only the best flavors! This, she learned while working at the Hudson Hotel with Ian Schrager company in Manhattan. She then moved back to Fort Worth to launch her first dream of a street taco truck, Taco Heads. In 2016 this project quickly developed into a brick & mortar building. It stands across the street from Dickies Arena on Montgomery Street in Fort Worth.

In 2020, Sarah took another leap toward restaurant development with Tinies, an elevated Mexican cuisine named after her mother, Christina. Tinies is known for its ambiance and delectable cuisine which draws influence from Mexico City and was noted, of “Top Restaurants of 2020” by Texas Monthly Magazine.

With Mule Alley in the Stockyards beginning to grow, Sarah began the venture of Sidesaddle Saloon, her take on the modern-day cowgirl which spawned into a craft cocktail bar with Texas culinary bar snacks, and is notably, “the finest saloon in Texas”.

Sarah’s newest and exciting project is La Pulga tequila, which launched in April 2023 and has been drawing attention from across the United States by multiple restaurants, hotels, and vendors. Sarah is looking forward to the many new adventures with growth in the tequila industry.
