Del Taco Corp
Del Taco is an American quick-service restaurant chain known for combining Mexican-inspired food with classic American fast-food items. Its menu includes tacos, burritos, quesadillas, carne asada, grilled chicken, burgers, crinkle-cut fries, breakfast products, shakes, desserts, beverages, and value-oriented meals. Unlike many fast-food competitors, Del Taco emphasizes several in-restaurant preparation steps such as grilling chicken and carne asada, preparing guacamole, shredding cheddar cheese, and cooking beans.
The company was founded in 1964 and has developed into one of the largest Mexican quick-service chains in the United States. Current 2026 company-supplied information describes Del Taco as operating nearly 600 restaurants across 17 states and serving more than three million guests per week.
A major ownership change occurred on December 22, 2025, when Jack in the Box completed the sale of Del Taco Holdings Inc. to Yadav Enterprises for approximately $119 million. Del Taco is therefore no longer owned by Jack in the Box. Yadav Enterprises, led by founder and CEO Anil Yadav, now serves as Del Taco’s parent and franchisor and has begun restructuring the brand’s leadership for a new growth phase.
949-462-9300 is a long-established Del Taco corporate-office number associated with the Lake Forest headquarters. Current legal materials continue to use the Lake Forest office, while ordinary guest complaints are better directed to the toll-free Guest Relations line.
800-852-7204
Del Taco publishes this toll-free number in current legal and privacy materials for company contact and consumer inquiries.

Tacos remain one of Del Taco’s core menu categories, ranging from value-oriented snack tacos to larger specialty tacos with beef, chicken, sauces, cheese, lettuce, and other toppings. Taco offerings are also incorporated into Del Yeah! Rewards redemptions and limited-time promotions.
Del Taco offers a wide range of burritos, including value burritos, combination burritos, chicken options, carne asada products, bean-and-cheese burritos, and larger Epic Burritos. The menu combines Mexican-inspired ingredients with the brand’s emphasis on grilled proteins and in-store preparation.
Epic Burritos are larger-format premium burritos intended for customers looking for more substantial portions. They also serve as a higher-value reward option within the Del Yeah! loyalty program, where qualifying members can redeem points for eligible Epic Burrito products.
Del Taco serves cheese and protein-based quesadillas, including smaller value-menu versions and larger chicken or steak options. Quesadillas are prepared with tortillas and cheese and can be combined with sauces or grilled proteins depending on the menu item.
Chicken is grilled in participating Del Taco restaurants and used across tacos, burritos, quesadillas, bowls, and specialty items. The company continues to promote freshly grilled marinated chicken as one of the ingredients that differentiates the brand’s preparation approach.
Del Taco serves marinated, grilled carne asada steak in qualifying tacos, burritos, and other menu items. Current company marketing specifically highlights freshly grilled carne asada as one of its core premium ingredients.
Fresh guacamole is prepared for use on premium menu items and as an add-on. Del Taco highlights house-made guacamole among the fresh ingredients supporting its “real food” positioning.
Beans are used throughout Del Taco’s burritos, tacos, bowls, and value products. Current brand marketing emphasizes that its beans are slow cooked and made from scratch rather than simply reheated from a prefinished product.
Del Taco promotes freshly grated cheddar cheese as another restaurant-prepared ingredient. It appears across tacos, burritos, quesadillas, fries, and other products.
Del Taco is unusual among major Mexican quick-service brands because it also offers American fast-food staples, and its crinkle-cut fries are one of its signature items. They can be purchased separately, included with combo meals, or used as the base for loaded-fries products.
Burgers remain part of Del Taco’s Mexican-American menu mix. They provide a traditional fast-food alternative for customers who may be dining with others ordering tacos or burritos.
Del Taco offers loaded-fries products that combine crinkle-cut fries with beef, cheese sauce, cheddar, vegetables, sour cream, jalapeños, or other toppings. Limited-time versions can use promotional sauces and branded ingredients.
Participating Del Taco restaurants offer breakfast items such as burritos, breakfast tacos, coffee, and other morning products. Current Del Yeah! Rewards benefits include complimentary qualifying coffee in certain reward tiers before 11:00 AM with a purchase.
Del Taco offers regular shakes and promotional specialty beverages. Shake products also appear in current birthday benefits within the Del Yeah! Rewards program.
Dessert options can include churros, cheesecake bites, shakes, and seasonal products. Exact selections vary by restaurant and promotion.
Del Taco maintains a value-focused menu with lower-priced tacos, burritos, snackers, quesadillas, and combination offers. This allows the chain to compete on affordability while still offering larger premium items elsewhere on the menu.
Drive-thru remains a major part of Del Taco’s operating model. Many restaurants serve guests late at night or around the clock, depending on location and local operating conditions.
Customers can order directly through DelTaco.com at participating locations. The digital system supports pickup, selected delivery transactions, menu customization, and Del Yeah! Rewards earning where applicable.
The Del Taco app allows customers to place qualifying orders, manage Del Yeah! Rewards, access promotions, and locate restaurants. Current store pages actively promote the app and its rewards functionality.
Del Yeah! Rewards uses a tiered system with Queso, Scorcho, Inferno, and Epic levels. Current 2026 program information shows members earning between 8 and 12 points per dollar depending on status, along with birthday rewards, product redemptions, and periodic bonuses.
Participating locations offer delivery through Del Taco’s own digital ordering system and supported third-party services. Refund responsibility can depend on whether the order was placed directly with Del Taco or through an outside delivery provider.
Selected Del Taco restaurants provide catering for meetings, parties, workplace meals, and group events. Menu selection, minimum quantities, pickup or delivery availability, and pricing vary by market.
Del Taco offers gift cards for restaurant purchases. Gift-card support can differ from normal restaurant Guest Relations, particularly for online gift-card orders.
Del Taco continues to operate a mixed company and franchise model under Yadav Enterprises. Yadav now serves as franchisor for Del Taco and is using its large multi-brand restaurant platform to support operations, development, and franchise growth.
949-462-9300 is associated with Del Taco’s Lake Forest corporate headquarters. This is best used for corporate routing rather than routine restaurant complaints, which should generally start with the Guest Relations number or the restaurant itself.
800-852-7204 is the verified toll-free company contact published in Del Taco legal and privacy materials. Customers can use it for unresolved guest-service issues, general company questions, or help determining the correct department.
For restaurant, order, food-quality, or service complaints, use 800-852-7204 after first contacting the restaurant when practical. Have the restaurant address, date, approximate time, order number, and receipt available.
Online gift-card support is handled separately from ordinary restaurant complaints. Current public corporate-office guidance lists 877-859-4757 for qualifying online gift-card inquiries, although customers should verify the current instructions shown with their card or purchase confirmation before calling.
Every Del Taco location has its own local number. For example, the Del Taco at 22349 El Toro Road, Lake Forest, CA 92630 currently lists 949-586-3757. Local management should be the first contact for a same-day restaurant complaint.
Del Taco does not publish a separate nationwide billing department. Payment and refund concerns should begin with the restaurant or digital platform that processed the transaction, followed by Guest Relations if the issue remains unresolved.
No separate universal Del Yeah! Rewards telephone number is prominently published. Start with the app’s support tools or 800-852-7204 and keep screenshots of points, missing offers, account email, and order receipts.
Franchise inquiries are handled through Del Taco’s franchising organization under Yadav Enterprises. Prospective operators should use the current franchise-development page rather than Guest Relations because qualifications, territories, investment requirements, and development agreements are handled separately.
Current Del Taco corporate communications identify dedicated media contacts on individual announcements. Media inquiries should not be sent to Guest Relations because journalists and corporate communications requests are routed through the brand’s public-relations team.
Del Taco does not prominently publish one universal applicant HR number. Restaurant applicants should use the official Careers page or contact the specific restaurant where they applied.
Not applicable. Del Taco has been privately held by Yadav Enterprises since December 22, 2025.
For a restaurant-specific issue, start with the location where the order was purchased and request the manager on duty. This is usually the fastest route for incorrect orders, missing items, food temperature, cleanliness concerns, employee interactions, drive-thru service, or immediate refund questions. Keep the receipt, order number, restaurant address, date, and approximate time available so management can identify the transaction.
If the local restaurant does not resolve the concern, call 800-852-7204 or use Del Taco’s official feedback channel. For corporate-level matters, the current Lake Forest office remains 25521 Commercentre Drive, Lake Forest, CA 92630. Customers should avoid using Jack in the Box contacts for new Del Taco issues because Del Taco was sold to Yadav Enterprises in December 2025.

Customers may need to complain about food quality, an incorrect order, missing items, employee conduct, restaurant cleanliness, drive-thru service, a refund, app problem, Del Yeah! Rewards, gift cards, delivery, or another Del Taco experience. Before escalating, keep the receipt, restaurant location, order number, date and time, photographs where relevant, and records of previous communication.
Start with the restaurant where the problem occurred and ask for the manager on duty. Explain the issue calmly and specifically, including the products ordered, what went wrong, the date and approximate time, and what resolution you want. If the matter involves food quality, incorrect preparation, missing products, or employee conduct, local management will usually have the most direct ability to review the order and correct the situation.
If the shift manager cannot resolve the complaint, ask whether the General Manager can review it. Provide the receipt and any photographs or digital order confirmation. Explain what was offered previously and why the matter remains unresolved. Record the name of the manager, date of the conversation, and any promised follow-up.
Call 800-852-7204 and provide the restaurant location, order information, previous manager contact, and details of the complaint. Clearly state the outcome you are requesting, such as a refund, replacement, account correction, or review of a service issue. Ask that the complaint be documented and keep any reference number given.
Use Del Taco’s official Contact Us or feedback system to create a written record of the issue. Include the restaurant address, transaction date, order number, items involved, names of employees or managers if known, and previous attempts to resolve the problem. Attach or retain screenshots where the complaint involves the app, online ordering, or Rewards.
If the complaint concerns Del Yeah! Rewards, preserve screenshots of the account level, points balance, promotion, qualifying order, and date the points should have posted. Del Yeah! Rewards currently operates multiple status levels and benefits, so documenting the exact offer can help the support team determine whether the transaction qualified.
For gift-card problems, use the gift-card support information connected with the purchase or card. For card-payment disputes involving a restaurant order, first give Del Taco a reasonable opportunity to correct the transaction. If an unauthorized or incorrect charge remains unresolved, contact the card issuer or payment provider and provide the receipt and complaint history.
For a serious unresolved complaint, send a written letter to Del Taco LLC, 25521 Commercentre Drive, Lake Forest, CA 92630. Include your full contact information, restaurant location, order number, dates, previous case history, supporting documentation, and the resolution requested. Keep a copy and use a trackable mailing method.
Del Taco’s legal terms provide a written Notice of Dispute process for certain claims before arbitration. Current terms direct qualifying notices to the General Counsel at the Lake Forest headquarters. Review the applicable terms before using this route because the process, timing, and arbitration requirements can differ from an ordinary Customer Service complaint.
If a serious matter remains unresolved, use the regulator or external process that matches the problem. Food-safety and sanitation concerns can be reported to local health authorities, payment disputes can involve the card issuer, employment matters may involve labor agencies, and general consumer-protection complaints can be directed to the relevant state Attorney General or consumer agency. Keep all receipts, photographs, emails, case numbers, and Del Taco responses before escalating.
