Texas-based Mexican restaurant chain Velvet Taco has announced that it will be adding "secret menu" items to its recently launched loyalty app, 'The Velvet Room.'
Now, The Velvet Room members will be able to order six items from the 'The Backdoor Secret Menu,' including the chain's popular 'Hangover Burger' and 'Nashville Hot Chicken' dishes. For those unfamiliar, the brand's famous 'Hangover Burger' features a beef patty topped with an egg, chili mayo, ranchero salsa, and pepper jack cheese.
Overall, the decision to expand its loyalty app offerings represents the brand's push to encourage its customers to order directly via the Velvet Taco-owned app rather than third-party services like Uber Eats. All six items will be offered as The Velvet Room exclusives, meaning customers will not able to order these dishes from other third-party apps.
