Del Taco brings its original authentic flavors and nostalgic vibes to Riverside with its re-opening of Store #1. This restaurant has undergone a complete transformation, offering guests a retro-inspired experience with an updated look, original Del menu items and a nod to the brand’s 60-year history.
This celebration of Del Taco’s adventurous past takes guests back to Barstow, on the historical Route 66 in the High Desert of California, showcasing the origin of the brand and its bold quest to tie classic American and authentic Mexican flavors together in the same restaurant.
On the cusp of Del’s new brand positioning and rooted in its past, Del Taco is blazing a new path bringing unexpected combinations of Ameri-Mex flavors to the menu, bringing more Del Yeah! to your day. This Founder’s Original Menu Pop Up sets the stage for a new brand campaign, honoring Del’s history and Del’s founder, Ed Hackbarth and his locations in Barstow. Ed lead the brand with innovative menu items that make Del unique with items like the Bun Taco and a classic fan favorite, Nacho Cheese. Ed pioneered this new concept and took Mexican menu items, like tacos and burritos and combined them with American classics like burgers, fries, and shakes – bringing both together in one building.
- Bun Taco – An original Founder’s Menu favorite that delivers all the flavors of a classic taco, served between soft, toasted hamburger buns.
- Taco Salad – Classic fresh taco ingredients served in a crunchy taco shell bowl.
- Cheese Burrito – A warm flour tortilla filled with melted cheddar cheese and our signature zesty red sauce.
