Weekly Taco
Feature
One taco. One week.
No promises it'll ever come back.
Every week, our kitchen creates a new limited-time taco available at Local Cantina locations. Sometimes it's inspired by a favorite menu item. Sometimes it's a mashup nobody asked for but everyone ends up loving. Sometimes it's just our chefs seeing how much flavor they can fit into a tortilla.
From spicy and crunchy to cheesy and downright ridiculous, the Weekly Taco Feature is your excuse to try something new before it's gone.
New tacos launch every Tuesday and are available for one week only while supplies last.

Why We Do It:
Because tacos are more fun when there are no rules.
The Weekly Taco Feature gives our chefs a chance to experiment, our regulars a reason to come back, and everyone else something new to talk about over margaritas.
Some become fan favorites. Some disappear forever. The only way to know if you'll love one is to order it.
