In keeping with consumers’ interest in cutting both costs and calories, these delicious, deep-sea delights are anchoring many a restaurant menu. Although some consumers may be hesitant to eat fish due to the recent Gulf spill, it does not seem to be affecting sales of fish tacos.
California Pizza Kitchen, The Cheesecake Factory, BJ’s Restaurants and El Pollo Loco are just a few of the chains that feature them, and Taco Bell has plans to test fish tacos next year. Fresh Fish Tacos were The Cheesecake Factory’s top sellers in June. In fact, the dish ranked among the top 20 of its 200 entrees, according to marketing chief Mark Mears.
