LAKE FOREST, Calif., Dec. 27, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Del Taco, the nation’s second largest Mexican quick service restaurant*, is ringing in the New Year by celebrating their everyday affordable “20 Under $2” Menu with their guests. Arguably the last great value menu in the quick service category, Del Taco will be giving Del Yeah!™ Rewards members one free select “20 Under $2” Menu** item every day in January with any $3 purchase*** with their 20 Twenty Free Program.

“We know that inflation has been tough on Americans, and we have a value menu that not only has great prices, but also great flavors and amazing fresh ingredients we cook fresh in our kitchens every day,” said Tim Hackbardt, Del Taco’s Chief Marketing Officer. “Where else can you get a street taco with freshly grilled marinated chicken and fresh house-made guacamole for under $2?

The answer is nowhere else. It truly is the last great value menu and that’s why we are giving away select “20 Under $2” Menu items every day in January so guests can discover how good this value menu really is.”
