Tim Spinner rose through the ranks in some of Philadelphia’s most prestigious restaurants getting his start at El Vez back in 2003. He then went on to open Amada and Distrito along side Iron Chef Jose Garces. From there he branched off with his business partner to open Cantina Feliz, La Calaca and Taqueria Feliz. Cantina and Calaca Feliz went on to be awarded 3 Bells from Philadelphia food critic Craig Laban. Taqueria Feliz has become a mainstay in Manayunk for the past 7 years.

Spinner’s love for the vibrant cuisine and adoring culture are translated through his menus. From the streets of Mexico City to the mountains of Puebla Spinner and his team built the foundations for Taqueria Amor.

After 25 years in the industry and 17 years running many of Philadelphia’s premier Mexican restaurants Spinner now resides in Lafayette Hill with his amazing wife and 5 wonderful children. Upon their 5th child Mack “Surprise” Spinner, Tim felt his own rebirth. It had always been a passion of his to branch off on his own and after the birth of #5, Spinner saw that as a unprecedented sign.

Chef

Chef Guillermo "Memo" Pozos brings his vibrant and positive personality to the kitchen every day.  Before coming to run the kitchen at Taqueria, Guillermo was the Chef de Cuisine at both Tinto and Village Whiskey.  When he's not slinging tacos he loves to sling heavy weights and also spend time with his lovely wife and 2 children.

Max has done it all starting as a runner and working his way up to server, bartender, manager, beverage manager and now general manager.  His years of experience and his friendly personality have helped create Taqueria into such a fun place to dine or work at.  In his free time Colonel Molseed loves to create abstract artwork and spending time with his super lovely lady Lauren.

Alena's years of experience in the industry and her Zen personality keep the hustle and bustle of Taqueria always feel calm to all her team members.  In her free time, she enjoys traveling, long hikes and trying to teach her dog Walnut the alphabet.
