Drawing inspiration from their very first taco version from over 50 years ago, Del Taco introduces the new The Del Taco. They're describing it as "a bigger, fresher, and better-tasting crunchy beef taco, worthy of the brand's name."

Replacing their Double Beef Classic Taco, The Del Taco features more seasoned beef, more fresh-grated cheddar cheese, lettuce, and chopped tomatoes on a bigger, crunchier corn shell. Seasoned turkey can be substituted for seasoned beef with no extra charge.

The suggested price for the new taco is $1.39. Del Taco currently has a buy one, get one free coupon for The Del Taco on their website but you have to be enrolled in their email list to access it.

That's a taco alright

Del Taco's cheese is so tasty for some reason. Wish there was one closer by... will make a point of going to one on my way to/when I'm down in SoCal for Thanksgiving.

 

[ReAxion]

I already liked the "old" one. Better than Taco Bell's.

 

[SlickShoesRUCrazy]

Del Taco > Taco Bell.

Give me that 2 classic chicken burritos with a lot of del scorcho and some crinkle cut fries!

What of the taco?

I wish I had a Del Taco near me. I miss dat chicken burrito deliciousness.

Just in time. We just had a del taco open up in our city recently.

 

[Septimus Prime]

That's such a dumb name. I actually went to Del Taco just today, and when they asked if I wanted to try their new Del Taco, I had no idea what they were talking about and said no thanks.

Also, it's no Doritos Locos.

I constantly stop at the Del Taco near my home when I'm stumbling home drunk. Those 2/$5 spicy chicken burritos are the reason I'm out of shape. I eat pretty healthy throughout the week, and one drunken night destroys me.

I do too.

I work nights, and one of the best things was coming home and grabbing a snack at Del after my shift. I moved, and now I'm much too far away from that.

Additionally, everything up here is closed at like, 10:30 except McDonalds. -_-

I dig being only five minutes away from my job, but you miss the little things sometimes.

How did they get it to stand up

No lie....Del taco has some shitty food. Only thing remotely redeeming is their breakfast. Bummed me out when I lived in the cali desert.

Why did having the option to eat "shitty food" bum you out? That is very confusing.

 

[Fat4all]

Not my taco.

 

[johnsmith]

This is the most basic ass "taco" I've ever seen.

 

[rainking187]

I mean if it's bigger that's good, but the picture looks identical to the old taco to me.

 

[Geist-]

Not my taco.

Holy shit, that's amazing. Genius even.

 

[Forerunner]

I expected more.

 

[SwiftDeath]

Welcome to Del Taco, Home of the Del Taco, Can I take your order?

 

[Smellycat]

But where is the sour cream?

 

[xDUMPWEEDx]

I mean if it's bigger that's good, but the picture looks identical to the old taco to me.

Exactly. It's the exact fucking same as the "Classic" taco it is replacing. I know, because I order the "Classic" tacos like 1-2 times a month.

This has to be purely a marketing gimmick.

 

[DietRob]

Sure that's a taco. Fun fact I've never seen a del taco in person. Might eat.

aren't you in Texas? You know we don't have Del Tacos anymore

Is it hot sauce or ketchup on that dog?
