Team Guac or Team Queso? California Tortilla Is Giving Fans a Reason to Celebrate Both

Free Guac & Chips and Chips & Queso give fans two reasons to get their dip on


    POTOMAC, MD, September 15, 2026 -- The only thing better than guac or queso? Getting it for free. California Tortilla, the fast-casual restaurant known for its bold "California-style" Mexican food, is celebrating National Guacamole Day on September 16 and National Queso Day on September 20, with free fan favorites for guests.

On Wednesday, Sept. 16, National Guacamole Day, guests can enjoy a free side of Guac & Chips with the purchase of any entrée at participating California Tortilla locations. The offer is available for in-store orders only.

California Tortilla makes its guacamole by hand every day using Avocados From Mexico, giving guests the perfect reason to add a little extra flavor to their favorite burrito, taco or bowl.

"Guacamole and queso are two of our most popular ways for guests to personalize the California Tortilla experience," said Keith Goldman, President & CEO of California Tortilla. "We go through more than 250,000 avocados each year, and our teams hand-smash fresh guacamole throughout the day because we believe the quality and preparation behind every ingredient matter."

On Sunday, Sept. 20, National Queso Day, Burrito Elito loyalty members can redeem an offer for free Chips & Queso at California Tortilla locations.

Guests can join Burrito Elito in-store to unlock exclusive offers, earn rewards and receive more reasons to dig into their Cal Tort favorites throughout the year.
