Guests can celebrate National Guacamole Day at Rocco’s Tacos Orlando Guacamole event on September 16, with half off tableside guac and half off tequila bottles.

If you are visiting the theme parks or taking a break from riding roller coasters in Central Florida, there is a delicious reason to make a quick detour just off park property. Rocco’s Tacos & Tequila Bar, located along Orlando’s iconic Sand Lake Road corridor right near Universal Orlando Resort’s main campus, is rolling out a major celebration for National Guacamole Day on Wednesday, Sept. 16.

For one day only, theme park goers and local foodies can enjoy half off its signature tableside guacamole in-store. To make the celebration even sweeter, select Florida and New York locations, including Orlando, will also offer half-off tequila bottles in-store.

A staple of the Rocco’s experience since founder Rocco Mangel opened the first location in West Palm Beach in 2007, the restaurant’s famous guacamole is prepared to order right at your table. Fresh avocados are mixed tableside and served with house-made chips seasoned with Rocco’s own proprietary spice blend. Guests can customize their dish with unique add-ins, including:

  • Fresh vegetable dipping options (carrots, cucumbers, and peppers)
  • Pomegranate seeds for a sweet contrast
  • Chipotle-glazed pork belly for a rich, savory bite

“Guacamole has been part of the Rocco’s experience since day one, and making it fresh tableside and getting to interact with our guests is what makes it so special to us,” said Rocco Mangel, founder of Rocco’s Tacos & Tequila Bar. “National Guacamole Day is the perfect excuse to celebrate one of our favorite dishes and give our guests even more reason to gather around the table and enjoy it together.”

Post-Park Dining Spot

Located on Sand Lake Road (Orlando’s “Restaurant Row”), Rocco’s Tacos sits just a short drive from Universal Studios Florida, Universal Islands of Adventure, and Universal CityWalk Orlando. It offers high-energy dining, handcrafted margaritas, and an extensive tequila selection, making it an ideal dinner destination after a day in the parks.

Founded by Mangel in 2007 and operated by Big Time Restaurant Group, Rocco’s Tacos & Tequila Bar has expanded across Florida and into New York while maintaining its signature vibrant atmosphere.
