Del Taco Reimagines the Taco with NEW Stuffed Quesadilla Tacos
26 August 2021 - 11:00PM
Del Taco Restaurants, Inc. (NASDAQ: TACO), the nation’s second
largest Mexican quick service restaurant*, introduces a mashup that
reimagines what a taco can be with the NEW Stuffed Quesadilla
Tacos. First, Del combines freshly grated cheddar cheese and
signature, creamy Queso Blanco for an extremely melty quesadilla.
Then they stuff it with a variety of savory meats, classic fresh
taco toppings and fold it up into a taco.
The NEW Stuffed Quesadilla Taco transforms two singularly
amazing items into one impossibly gooey, cheesy experience wrapped
around three different taco flavors with the option to get them
“Guac’d Up” with fresh house-made guacamole including:
- $1.99 Grilled Chicken Stuffed Quesadilla Taco**
– A substantial taco featuring freshly grated cheddar
cheese and signature creamy Queso Blanco, grilled between two flour
tortillas and packed with freshly grilled, marinated chicken, crisp
shredded lettuce, fresh diced tomatoes, and more cheddar
cheese.
- $2.29 Crispy Chicken
Stuffed Quesadilla Taco** – Stuffed with two crispy
chicken strips layered with crisp shredded lettuce, fresh diced
tomatoes and topped with even more cheddar cheese, it’s also
wrapped inside a grilled quesadilla filled with melted freshly
grated cheddar cheese and Del Taco’s signature, creamy Queso
Blanco.
- $2.99 Carne Asada Stuffed
Quesadilla Taco** – A steak and cheese lovers taco that
consists of freshly grated cheddar cheese and signature Queso
Blanco grilled between two flour tortillas filled with freshly
grilled carne asada, crisp shredded lettuce, fresh diced tomatoes,
and more freshly grated cheddar cheese.
“We know guests are looking for amazing new experiences, so we
decided to take some of our best menu items and make them even
better by bringing them together,” said Tim Hackbardt, Del Taco’s
Chief Marketing Officer. “We took our quesadilla to another level
by adding our signature Queso Blanco and then added generous
portions of our freshly grilled chicken or steak with the option of
getting them ‘Guac’d up’ with our fresh, house-made guacamole. For
all those guests who are chasing the next crispy chicken craze,
they will love our Crispy Chicken Stuffed Quesadilla Taco with not
just one, but two crispy chicken strips wrapped inside the same
extra cheesy Queso Blanco and cheddar quesadilla.”
The Stuffed Crispy Chicken Quesadilla Taco is the 12th crispy
chicken item that the brand has introduced over the past year. Del
Taco was the first major Mexican quick service chain to introduce
crispy chicken tacos in 2020 and has continued to innovate with new
items and flavors ever since.
In response to pumpkin spice everything, Del Taco has created an
entire lineup of limited-time only beverages featuring the perfect
fall flavor – caramel:
- Caramel Apple Shake: A vanilla shake with
creamy caramel and Granny Smith apple puree, made to order.
- Caramel Dulce de Leche Shake: A vanilla shake
blended with creamy caramel, made to order.

caramel coffee drink perfect for anytime of the day.
