French tacos
A French tacos (US: /ˈtɑːkoʊs/, UK: /ˈtækoʊs/; French: tacos français, [takos fʁɑ̃sɛ], or commonly tacos), Lyonese tacos (French: tacos lyonnais) or matelas (French for "mattress"), is a fast food dish which usually consists of a flour tortilla grilled and folded around a filling of French fries, cheese, and meat, among other deli ingredients.
Despite the name, French tacos has little to do with the taco and is more similar to a burrito or quesadilla. French tacos has also been compared to the panini and the shawarma sandwich, and is similar to the California burrito.

It is then served warm by grilling (with the use of a panini grill) or toasting.
Many different recipes exist and it is common for French tacos restaurants to deliver made-to-order products by letting customers choose à la carte from the aforementioned ingredients. Meat-free variants also exist.
Most French tacos made in France are marketed as halal-certified and as such do not contain pork, in order to accommodate Muslim customers.
A newsletter of Vaulx-en-Velin described it as "In short, a rather successful marriage between panini, kebab, and burrito".
There are conflicting accounts about the exact origin of French tacos. Some accounts say it was invented in the mid-2000s by Moroccan born brothers Abdelhadi and Mohammed Moubarek as they were running a kebab shop in Savoy. French documentary series 66 minutes, on the other hand, credits Mohamed Soualhi, founder of the chain Tacos Avenue (formerly Tacos King) with inventing the sandwich in Lyon in the late 2000s. However, Soualhi himself, as well as other sources, have affirmed that "French tacos" were first sighted in fast food restaurants in the city of Vaulx-en-Velin near Lyon in the early 2000s.
