Taco Tuesday is a custom in many United States cities of going out to eat tacos or in some cases select Tex-Mex dishes, typically served in a tortilla, on Tuesday nights. Restaurants will often offer special prices, for example, "$2 fish tacos every Tuesday night".[1]
It is popular in many big cities across the nation, and especially popular in the beach cities of Southern California.[2][3] Taco Tuesday is similar to Happy Hour in that restaurants vary in their participation, hours, and specials offered.[citation needed]
Taco Tuesday is celebrated in other countries in the English-speaking world, such as in Canada, the UK and Australia.[4] Similar customs are observed outside of the US. In Norway, the terms Fredagstaco and Tacofredag are used to refer to eating tacos on Friday night.[5][6] In Sweden, serving tacos on Fridays is common for Fredagsmys.[7]
