On the way home from LA, had to stop off in Barstow and who I run into ? The legend himself..The founder of Del Taco, Ed Hackbarth. Super friendly guy who is down to earth and is always helping out at the Barstow locations. Even though he is turning 90 this year, you can still see Ed cleaning tables, delivering food and even surprising kids with free shakes. Such an amazing businessman !!

Count ur fucking DAYS !!

I look forward to my semi-annual road trips (Vegas to SoCal) thanks to this Barstow Del Taco! They really just be King of the Dels 🤤

What else should I try here? I’ve had the bun taco, chili cheese fries, spicy jack quesadilla..

Is the carrot cake worth it?

Was having a bite to eat after walking to my local Del Taco in Barstow, and while I'm eating I see an employee come out and sit down with a customer. Eventually, I realize that the employee is seated with Ed based on the table posters inside. After debating (being nervous) for a bit, I took the time and talked with him. He was extremely sweet, making sure to know my name, answer my questions, and letting me take a photo and even gave me a souvenir to put in my car. Amazing dude, truly.

Del Taco is the best fast food option out there. Value menu is ACTUALLY value, with most items being 1-1.50$ and the taste range is extensive. It has desserts, drinks, and most of their tacos (actual taco menu is just value tacos remixed) on that bitch. So good for broke college students like me.

And their limited edition items always hit so fucking hard. Cookie butter shake? Delicious. Iced cafe de olla? HITS. Literally all of the popper lemonades? SAW JESUS. Walter White must be in Lake Forest California because they are COOKING!

My love for Del Taco is unparalleled and misunderstood and I need to be heard by likeminded people. I am a proud Del Taco enjoyer. We'll rise up one day...

Taco Bell has turned into over priced trash.

Surveys covering fast food restaurants place Del Taco at #3 for best fast food breakfast, #1 for best fast food fries, and #1 for best fast food restaurant overall... https://10best.usatoday.com/awards/del-taco/

Had to stop on my way to Vegas and try the original. So good!

Can never not stop at one of the OGs

🔥Del Taco #1

Visited 2 old school Del Tacos (1st and Mtn View) in Barstow and the site of the original stand in Yermo. Pretty cool. Had the Barstow tostada, taco and bun taco. Didn't visit the 3rd one. Did I miss anything cool? I may have to go back out that way on a Vegas to LA road trip!

Anyone agree? I think it holds its own against In n Out, Whataburger, etc. it’s always juicy and delicious. It has no business being as good as it is.

My butler is picking me up one right now and I absolutely can’t wait

Saw this on Instagram. Not sure if I agree, but glad to see Del getting some much deserved good press.
