LAKE FOREST, Calif., Aug. 06, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Del Taco, the nation’s second-largest Mexican quick service restaurant*, is bringing together two of its most iconic menu items in an all-new way with the debut of the NEW All-American Burgertaco. Launching August 6 for a limited time, the brand’s latest innovation combines the signature flavors of its beloved Double Del® Cheeseburger and legendary Big Fat Taco, creating a one-of-a-kind mashup that only Del Taco could deliver.
“Our fans have always loved that they can order amazing burgers and tacos from the same menu since 1964, so we’re leaning into their cravings with a new item that’s unmistakably Del Taco,” said Noah Chillingworth, Chief Marketing Officer at Del Taco. “Whether you love tacos or burgers, all Americans can agree that Del Taco’s new Burgertaco delivers an iconic flavor for guests who want the best of both worlds.”
The All-American Burgertaco is a one-of-a-kind creation that transforms Del Taco’s popular Double Del® Cheeseburger into taco form. Wrapped in a warm, buttery toasted flatbread, the mashup features two grilled-to-order all-beef patties, two slices of American cheese, fresh sliced tomatoes, crisp shredded lettuce, diced onions and signature burger sauce. The All-American Burgertaco delivers the distinctive taste of a classic American cheeseburger and ratchets up the experience with the unique flavors of Del Taco’s legendary Big Fat Taco.
Del Taco is also bringing back its Dirty Del specialty beverage and expanding on the flavor lineup, giving guests even more ways to enjoy one of today’s fastest-growing beverage trends. Dirty Del beverages are crafted with creamy vanilla shake mix and finished with a slice of lime for a refreshingly sweet twist. Guests can choose from five flavors and can get either 16 or 24-ounce sizes at participating locations. Starting August 10 through August 16, members of Del Yeah!™ Rewards can access an exclusive offer for a FREE Regular Size Dirty Del with $5 minimum purchase. Additional restrictions may apply.
