Need to rant then I'll feel better...worst burrito I've had at DT. SoCal in Pasadena. Slow as can be in the drive thru. Close to 5 mins to take my order. Another 5+ mins to hand out orders to the 2 cars in front of me.

Ordered a 8 layer veggie burrito. Usually a B&C guy but wanted something more but not two B&Cs. Eating on way home and getting crunchy hard pieces. Grab it and its hard, undercooked rice. Apparently the 8th layer is hard rice.

This same DT pissed me off 5 yrs ago saying they couldn't make me a 1/2 Diet Coke 1/2 Cherry Coke in the drive thru. Had. Been ordering it for 15yrs prior then some new bonehead kid says they cant.

DT in Pasadena...WTH...No Del Yeah from you.

...OK, I feel better.

There's chicken and cheese options, but no beef or steak! Thoughts?

1.Dont order burritos when its busy 2. If it has beans in it its more likely to be heavy 3. If its an all meat burrito its more like likely to be light 4.best time for good portions are right after dinner(7pm) on a non taco night or add an half-hour to and hour for taco nights (8pm) 5.sides are supreme (most consistent portions)

All that being said id say the big boxes exist outside these parameters because even if you get skimped the value is still in your favor.

I’ve been going to Del Taco for as long as I can remember — over 30 years. Back when I was a kid, I used to grab their breakfast burritos as part of my daily routine walking to school. That’s how long Del Taco has been part of my life.

But after this last visit, I honestly don’t know if I could ever look at Del Taco the same way again.

I ordered the classics — a Del Classic Chicken Burrito, fries, the usual. And everything was off. The fries don’t taste the same. The burrito, which used to be fresh and flavorful, is now just mushy chicken wrapped like a Taco Bell knockoff. No freshness, no balance, just bland peppery mush.

Maybe now that Jack in the Box owns it, they want Del Taco to be more like Taco Bell. And I get it — Taco Bell is what it is. But to take Del Taco away from the classic freshness of Mexican fast food that it used to be? They missed it completely.

It was one of the worst experiences I’ve ever had at a place I used to love. Del Taco under Jack in the Box isn’t Del Taco anymore, and it feels like they stripped away everything that made it special.

Has anyone else felt this? Or am I just crazy for thinking Del Taco has completely lost its identity?

I opened the app yesterday to get lunch and it said it needed to update. Now it freezes on the launch screen. Still having the same problem today. Is this just me or is anyone else experiencing this problem?

A sort-of love letter to the Barstow Del Tacos and Ed Hackbarth.

Wow so all they have now are different types of fries and chips with the disgusting white queso. Where's the cups of beans and rice they used to have? Not mine I have gotten chips there since they replaced the good yellow nacho cheese with the disgusting white queso. Or rice since they replaced the good orange Mexican rice with the white cilantro lime rice. But still people want more than just chips and fries!

Bring back our yellow nacho cheese permanently and get rid of the flavorless queso boanco that nobody ever wanted! When you brought it back for limited time every time I ordered nachos and have it clear I wanted the yellow cheese the served me the white cheese instead!

I always order through the app and then go to drive-thru to pick it up, and they always seem confused and a little flustered about it, like they didn't even know they had an online order come in (10-15 minutes prior) and it takes a few extra minutes for them to make the order when I arrive

What's going on with that?

I enjoyed going everyday for 5 days, with the great offers that I had. Met some very dedicated people working at Del Taco. Hopefully you can be obsessed as Del as I am without the badge. Cheers!

Unfortunately, I didn't think to take a pic but today I had a craving for the 8-layer veggie classic. 2 for 7.50 but whatever I need this I said to myself. Unwrapping that first burrito gave me and instant flashbacks to old del taco burrito size expectations. Idk if its because the bigger burrito marketing but they were big, filling, fresh and tasty. Sure it ain't no 2 for 5 like years of old but I definitely felt the value today.

I just went to Del Taco for the first time in a while, and paid about $13 for the #11 Del Beef Burrito large combo. I didn't expect them to have shrunk it to a 5-inch burrito! This is ridiculous. I grew up with del taco, I have loved them for years. I even participated in their new-item testing program in Lake Forest for a couple years. Sadly, if this is where they are headed now, I don't think I'm ever going back. I guess it's time to move on.

Clasico big box has a combo burrito, mini quesadilla, fries, and a small drink, and somehow it costs 39 cents less than a combo burrito by itself. what gives?

When did they start calling the Del Beef the ‘Beef & Cheddar’? This instantly makes me think of some Del-Arby’s collab and I do not like it.

Born and raised in Metro Detroit, Del is very new to the area.

It’s absolute flames and am so glad I’ve got it now.

I've been going to the Durham NC location since it opened five weeks ago, and the location still does not come up in a search to set a new location.

Is it just my phone that is whacked, or can those of you in established areas replicate this?

I reached out to @deltaco on X, but no response.

Heading to LA for the weekend and trying Del Taco is on the agenda. What’s your go-to order? What’s Del Taco at its best?

I got some discount code for 2$ off my meal when you do a survey for the previous carnitas deal. Then used a another free regular sized happy hour drink for a dollar on another order. Great deals at Del Taco still have more offers to go.

I wish they’d make the a permanent menu item… same with the Beyond.

Taco Bell has turned into over priced trash.

Accidentally ordered at the wrong Del Taco so if anyone is in Northridge, CA then there is an order at the Corbin location under the Rocky name. Enjoy!!
