SALT LAKE CITY, UT - (Marketwired - May 31, 2017) - Costa Vida is celebrating National Tortilla Day on June 5, 2017 and encouraging diners to "Viva la tortilla!" with free, fresh tortillas and their famous smothered sweet pork burrito at a discount. This year marks the second official National Tortilla Day as the Utah-based national chain declared the holiday on June 4, 2016 to pay homage to the anniversary of the opening of their first franchise location opening on the same date in 2003. The holiday is observed yearly on the first Monday following Memorial Day weekend.
"At Costa Vida, we consider the tortilla to be the vital cornerstone of our cuisine, so we pride ourselves on offering the freshest, from-scratch tortillas available every day," said Dave Rutter, president and CEO, Costa Vida Fresh Mexican Grill. "We are excited to offer our customers delicious hand-crafted tortillas that pay homage to the tortilla artistry found in Jalisco, Mexico on National Tortilla Day and beyond."

Tortilla lovers can take advantage of the promotion at their local Costa Vida location and on Costa Vida social media on June 5.
