Valentine's Day 2012! Special Prixe Fixe Menu from Tacos & Tequilas!

To celebrate El Dia Del Amor, Chef Saul Ortiz has created a special Valentine’s Day prix fixe menu for couples to share on Tuesday, Feb. 14, at Tacos & Tequila (T&T) inside Luxor Hotel and Casino.

Priced at $29 per person, the menu features delicious appetizers, a choice between three entrées and a delectable dessert sampler.

To start, lovers will enjoy a sampler for two, including a Shrimp Ceviche shot, Chicken Quesadillas and Beef Flautas. Guests may then select from an assortment of authentic entrées to complement their Valentine’s date including the Trio of Enchiladas, which includes a combination of the cheese, chicken divorciada and beef barbacoa enchiladas, the “Taste of T & T,” which includes pork carnitas, a chicken tamale and chile relleno, or the Combination Taco Platter with steak, chicken and carnitas tacos. All entrées are served with a side of Mexican black beans and rice.

To enhance the romance, lovers will be treated to an irresistible dessert sampler of pastries. The decadent spread includes a traditional Mexican Flan, a Chocolate Morenita Sundae made with a chocolate brownie topped with cinnamon ice cream and cajeta sauce and a sweet Tres Leches Cake made with Mexican three-milk cake.

Named one of the best tequila bars of 2011 in America by USA Today, Tacos & Tequila embodies the cool modernism of Mexico City while incorporating traditional elements of Mexican style and Las Vegas flair. The color mixture of old and new creates a vivid picture of brushed aluminum, dark wood, leather, bright fabrics and colored glass. The focal point of T&T’s design is its abstract sombrero composed of 20 brushed-aluminum panels featuring thousands of laser-cut images, including two, 30-foot dancing, tequila-drinking skeletons. Lit from within, the breathtaking panels stretch across the entire length of the restaurant floor and across the common area, connecting the T&T retail store and walk-up daiquiri bar.
