Del Taco

A must stop when you are headed thru Barstow. I can usually eat 2 Del taco tacos, but the Barstow tacos are huge and I could only get down one. That’s OK they taste great leftover as well. Fries and special sauce are a must. It was very busy but didn’t slow down the efficient team. Only downfall is the local bystanders. Make sure you lock your vehicle and don’t be surprised if you are asked by outsiders to buy them a taco or 2.

This is the second Del Taco location opened and the first in Barstow. Opened in 1964 and still owned by the original family, the food is better here than at the franchise locations.

I am fortunate enough to live in Barstow, home of the original Del Taco. The menu there is a little bit different than any other Del Taco. If you've never experienced it, I would highly recommend it. You won't regret it.

I had to stop by and taste the food here . I've been told by friends that Del Taco in SoCal is better tasting than anywhere else. They might be right 🙂 I had the double Del cheese burger combo, which is pretty normal but really good 👍🏼. I also ordered 2 fish tacos, and they were definitely something else . I never had fast food fish tacos that tasted so good ! They are definitely in my top 5 fish taco list . Too bad I live almost 6 hours away . If you are in this area or passing through and want good food at a fair price , stop by .

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Drove 168 miles just to experience the famous Barstow Tacos at the original Del Taco location. I ordered the #6 combo (two hard-shell Barstow Tacos with fries and a drink), upgraded to a large drink and fries, and added two Barstow Soft Tacos since I have braces. I was excited to enjoy these tacos with an amazing view of Barstow from the top. Unfortunately, when I got home, I realized I had been given four regular soft tacos instead of the Barstow Soft Tacos I specifically ordered. Definitely disappointing after such a long drive. On the bright side, the fries were absolutely delicious—crispy, hot, and perfectly seasoned—though I did burn my mouth in my eagerness to dig in. Overall, the experience was a letdown due to the incorrect order, but the food quality itself was solid. If
