tacos

Photo of tacos similar to what you get at Belly, only the Belly tacos are better.

Unless you've ate at new restaurant Belly in the past month and received one of their cute buy one get one free cards, you probably don't know that the continental restaurant is open for lunch on Mondays for tacqueria-style tacos, Jarritos sodas and/or beer. I talked with owner Brendan Mahaney and he said that the taco lunch is an experiment they're trying out. But you better hurry, because Mahaney may pull this taco-lunch thing altogether if there's not much response. Right now the lunch special only happens from 11 am to 3 pm on Mondays in September, but the day of the week will probably shift after that (to Tuesday for example), says Mahaney, because he wants his weekends back.

UPDATE: Belly's Taco Lunch moves to 11am-3pm Tuesdays through Fridays starting in October. Yay!

Tacos are about $4 each and usually come with a free surprise appetizer like pepper-sprinkled watermelon (one of those special Belly touches I can't get enough of). So downtown workers, you know what to do come next Monday.
