7 Best Taco Tuesday Deals under $6
I know what you’re thinking…the best street tacos are always under $6, chica!! But where do you go if you don’t want to eat your tacos standing up on the side of the road? I’ve got those 7 Best Taco Tuesday Deals right here, plus one that’s absolutely FREE — scroll to the end to see!
Taco Social (Eagle Rock)
Taco Social is a brand new spot, as of September 26th, 2023, and it’s the taco machination of several Pasadena restauranteurs who wanted to “taste the world in a taco.”
Flavors range from Tikka Masala to Chicken Queso, plus flavors like K-BBQ and the irresistible Pork Banh Mi. Best of all, nothing on the menu is over $5.45, and that’s EVERY DAY OF THE WEEK!
Visit from 3 to 6 p.m. to take advantage of their Social Hour pricing. This includes $2 off all Margaritas, Craft Cocktails, Draft Beers, and Wine, as well as $4 Breakfast Tacos and a $5 Nashville Hot Cod Featured Taco.
El Torito (various locations)
I’ll admit I had my reservations when I took part in my first Taco Tuesday at the well-known chain El Torito in Sherman Oaks. But as I watched my tortilla being handmade in front of me and then overfilled with fresh carnitas before I took over with toppings, I quickly became a convert. Oh, and did I mention they are only $3 each? Choices include Steak, Chicken, Carnitas, or Al Pastor and all the sides and fixings you can handle.
Taking place every Tuesday from 3 PM to close in the cantina, you can stuff yourself for six bucks and still have money left over for a Margaritas – because they have $4 Drink Specials too. You just might need more tacos 🙂
CaCao Mexicatessen (Eagle Rock)
Most people come to Cacao Mexicatessen in Eagle Rock for their Duck Carnitas ($5.95), but you can also get Tacos de Calle made with cochinita pibil, chicken, or al pastor for less than $5 any day of the week!
Visit during Happy Hour from 4 to 6 p.m. Tuesday to Thursday and 3 to 6 p.m. Friday to Sunday to add Cervezas to your meal for less than $6 too.
Trejo’s Tacos (La Brea, Santa Monica, Hollywood)
Danny Trejo is adding some star power to your Taco Tuesday with some sweet deals at select Trejo’s Tacos locations. Stop by from 3 to 5 p.m. to get $2 off all Beer, $8 Margaritas, and most importantly – $5 Taco Plates. This also happens to be their daily Happy Hour time.
Clubhouse 66 (Glendora)
Clubhouse 66 might be the best-kept secret in Glendora for stellar cuisine, and Taco and Tequila Tuesday is no exception.
The deal is 2 Tacos for $7 (so $3.50 each), but these aren’t your ordinary tacos. There are eight taco choices to choose from, including The Pig Out with Korean pork belly, arugula, pineapple, and serrano pepper, and the Quack Me Up with duck chorizo, shredded green leaf, and feta cheese. Best of all you can mix and match!
And as for Tequila, everything is 50% off!
Sipan Bakery (Glendale)
I wouldn’t be a Glendale resident if I did not give a shout-out to the Falafel Tacos available at Sipan Bakery. Although this Armenian bakery does not run a traditional Taco Tuesday, their tacos are always less than $5. Falafel Tacos with tomatoes, cilantro, and tahini are $2.50, Fried Chicken Tacos with shawarma are $3.50, and Fadi Style Tacos with french fries, garlic mint pickles, and chipotle sauce are also just $2.50.
La Cuevita (Highland Park)
Honorable Taco Mention
Mercado (Hollywood, Santa Monica, Pasadena, L.A., and Manhattan Beach)
All the Mercado restaurant locations are known for their stellar dining room spaces, which often offer an outdoor patio as well. Visit on Taco Tuesday during Happy Hour and enjoy Lela’s Ground Beef Tacos ($10 for 2 – so $5 each) and Carnitas and Jicama Shrimp Tacos for just a little more. As for bebidas, Cervezas in Cans are $4, Wine is $7, and the Mercado Margarita is $8.
Each location has different hours for Taco Tuesday Happy Hour, so check the website before you go. Los Angeles, Hollywood, and Santa Monica are from 5 to 7 p.m. and Manhattan Beach and Pasadena are from 4 to 6:30 p.m.
Pictured below is the Guacamole because it’s too good not to get, but unfortunately is not specially priced.
