The nation’s second-largest quick-serve Mexican restaurant chain is returning to one of its key markets.
Del Taco is in the process of a phased reopening of 17 corporate-owned locations across Colorado. The rollout began on 21 June and will continue throughout the next several months. With five locations now reopened and 12 more scheduled, the brand says it is re-establishing its footprint in communities “eager for its bold flavours and beloved menu items.”
“We’re thrilled to re-establish our presence in the Denver and Colorado Springs communities that have supported Del Taco for more than two decades,” said Sarah McAloon, Interim President of Del Taco. “We’re already seeing an incredible response at the locations that have reopened, with Macho Burritos returning, plus our new bigger, over one pound classic burritos and our super popular $9 AmeriMex El Big Box. We look forward to continuing to serve guests our fresh unexpected flavour.”
Del Taco says the return to the Colorado market aligns with a broader effort to reconnect with longtime fans through direct Del Taco corporate ownership and elevated service. While 17 locations are scheduled to reopen, one former restaurant in Aurora, Colorado will remain closed.
