Mama Lu’s Curbside Pickup & Delivery

Tastemaker
By Craig Manning | March 21, 2020

Each day, from 11am to 8pm, Mama Lu’s taco shop in Downtown Traverse City is offering both curbside pickup outside its front door and free delivery within a 10-mile radius. If you’re ordering for the entire family, consider a taco kit (pictured), which includes 20 tortillas, your choice of two meats, a range of other ingredients (including picked red onion, pickled jalapeno, and limes), and a side (such as beans and rice) for a starting price of $50. If you’re dining solo, pick a taco (or three) from the regular Mama Lu’s menu. Each taco is just $4, and the restaurant is offering its entire slate for takeout. We recommend the “Panza,” an out-of-this-world pork belly taco topped with pickled apples, kale, parsnip chips, and salsa negra. Trust us: You won't be able to eat just one. And don’t forget the drinks! You can add beer, wine, cider, margarita mixers, or nonalcoholic beverages by the bottle or can to your order. Learn more online at www.mamalustc.com.
