Del Taco Thinks Outside the Box with Its Two for Five Classic Burrito Deal

For a Limited Time, Guests Can Choose ANY TWO Classic Burritos for Just Five Bucks  

LAKE FOREST, Calif., Aug. 27, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Certain five-dollar restaurant deals are simply too big for a box, and (NASDAQ:TACO), the nation’s second leading Mexican quick service restaurant,* is now delivering unmatched craveable value by letting guests choose any two of its flavorful and freshly-prepared Classic Burritos for just five dollars, for a limited time only.**

“Five dollar box deals limit your choices by boxing you in to set products, forcing you to choose between a low price and getting what you really want. We’re changing the game on what $5 value deals can mean when it comes to restaurant value,” said Barry Westrum, Del Taco’s Chief Marketing Officer. “Whether mixing our famous Del Combo Burrito with a Classic Grilled Chicken Burrito, or mixing a Del Beef Burrito with an 8 Layer Veggie Burrito, we love giving our guests the ability to mix and match their favorites, or try something new.”

Del Taco’s 2 for $5 Mix & Match Classic Burritos include:

• Del Combo Burrito: Seasoned beef combined with slow-cooked beans made from scratch, hand-grated cheddar cheese and zesty red sauce, wrapped in a warm flour tortilla
• Del Beef Burrito: Seasoned beef, hand-grated cheddar cheese and zesty red sauce, wrapped in a warm flour tortilla
• Classic Grilled Chicken Burrito: Fresh grilled chicken, Del Taco’s famous secret sauce, fresh diced tomatoes, crisp lettuce, and hand-grated cheddar cheese, wrapped in a warm flour tortilla
