We know Nashville is home to plenty of Taco Tuesday deals, but this news will really guac your world: Taco Week kicks off on Monday, Dec. 2 with $5 specials across 30+ restaurants.

How it works

Take your taco travels to the next level by downloading the free app. “Check in” at each of your stops to earn points, which increases your chance at winning prizes — think: $300 in gift cards + a six-pack of WYNK’s THC-infused seltzers.

Shell out the roses. As the week comes to a close on Sunday, Dec. 8, be sure to vote for the “Best Taco” you tried. Not only will a winner be crowned, you’ll be entered to win a $50 gift card to a participating restaurant of your choice.

What we’re eyeing

Taco Bamba | One Night in Bangkok with seared shrimp, spicy chorizo larb, mint, basil, chiles + crispy onions

Limo Peruvian Eatery | Lomo Taco with strips of marinated steak accompanied by sauteed onions, juicy tomatoes, and green onions + glazed in a soy-based sauce

Taco Mamacita | The Luau Taco with slow-roasted pork carnitas, pineapple salsa, avocado, spicy slaw, and a drizzle of Mama’s jerk sauce
