It’s Tuesday! And as a girl who grew up in Southern California, I only think of one thing… Tacos! Throw in some margaritas and extremely low prices and you got yourself a traditional So-Cal Taco Tuesday right here in the Valley of the Sun. Yo quiero tacos!
Gallo Blanco Café & Bar
Special: Buy two tacos, get one free!
Located in the funky and hip Clarendon Hotel in Phoenix, Gallo Blanco serves up an array of tasty and creative tacos. You MUST accompany your wrapped-up delight with Gallo’s authentic sangria (even though it’s not discounted on Tuesdays, it’s well worth it)! Margaritas are also flowing daily.
