I can't describe how much better it is than Taco Bueno's tacos - which I 
have never, ever cared for, though I do like greatly their taco salad 
with their pico and hot sauce... Mexidips and Chips is pretty decent as 
well. But their tacos - bleh.

I actually think their Taco Bel Grande is a decent taco (and the Burrito 
Supreme is decent as well), though most of the rest of the food there 
makes a taco truck look like the Morton's. They create menu items like a 
child would - let's put a taco in a taco! Lame. Their patented Food 
Poisoning Rollup is a clever creation (this describes half their menu).

And worst. Nachos. Ever.

Trying to remember if that's where they served me a taco salad that 
actually was like a tossed salad with purple cabbage and carrots, like 
that bagged supermarket salad with a leftover taco broken over it.

I have to think the expansion will happen soon - everything else good 
from California is moving here, Del Taco should be no different...
