Every order comes with free chips, and the menu goes beyond the basics into birria and lamb barbacoa. Tuesday is the big one: Taco Tuesday takes 15% off the entire menu all day, in store or online with the code the restaurant posts on its site. Wednesday's 'Hump Day' brings $1.99 horchata from 2 to 9pm, and Thursday from 2 to 9pm is torta night, with the torta and the birria torta both $9.95.
A rewards program adds 2% back on every purchase plus 25 points for signing up. It's open every day from 10am to 9pm for dine-in, takeout and delivery, and catering (including game-day and corporate trays) is a big part of the business.
