District Taco bringing back original truck to serve free breakfast tacos in Rosslyn

A local restaurant has plans to serve free breakfast tacos in Rosslyn next week for National Taco Day.

District Taco says it will park its original taco truck at the intersection of Wilson Blvd and N. Lynn Street at 8 a.m. next Friday, Oct. 4. The Arlington-founded company will serve one taco per customer while supplies last — most likely until 10 a.m., the restaurant predicts.

The tacos will come in bacon, chorizo and vegetarian varieties alongside fresh salsa.

District Taco began in 2009 as a taco cart frequently visiting Rosslyn and Crystal City. The restaurant now has 17 brick-and-mortar locations across D.C., Northern Virginia, Maryland, Pennsylvania and New Jersey.

CEO Osiris Hoil will operate the truck during Friday’s event.

More info on the promotion, from a PR rep, is below.
