01 The story, in three paragraphs

Why everyone keeps coming back.

Located conveniently at 7060 Broadway in Lemon Grove, CA, Del Taco offers a lively blend of American and Mexican fast food that perfectly suits those craving quick, flavorful meals any time of day. As a fast food, breakfast, and taco restaurant rolled into one, Del Taco’s menu beckons with a variety of crave-worthy options that masterfully balance spice, freshness, and classic comfort.

One of the standout delights is the DOUBLE DEL® CHEESEBURGER—a mouthwatering combination of two 100% beef patties grilled to order, layered with rich American cheese, crisp shredded lettuce, diced onions, and fresh tomato slices, all tied together with a signature burger sauce on a toasted sesame seed bun. For bacon lovers, the BACON DOUBLE DEL® CHEESEBURGER adds a satisfying crispy twist that elevates each bite. The unmistakable aroma of grilled beef mingled with the smoky scent of bacon truly sets the stage for a satisfying meal.

If you're sharing with family or friends, the Fiesta Packs are a brilliant choice. Whether it’s the classic 6 SNACK TACOS & 6 BEAN & CHEESE BURRITOS or the 6 GRILLED CHICKEN TACOS & 6 BEAN & CHEESE BURRITOS combo, these platters are perfect to spark conversations over a casual get-together or kickstart a laid-back party. The vibrant colors and fresh ingredients—from zesty beans to perfectly seasoned chicken—make every meal feel festive.

For those seeking a lighter but equally flavorful option, the Taco Salads are a revelation. The TACO SALAD WITH SEASONED BEEF layers fresh housegrated cheddar with cool guacamole, pico de gallo bursting with garden-fresh tomatoes and onions, cilantro’s herbal brightness, and a tangy Salsa Casera that ties the experience together with a delightful punch. The housemade tortilla chips add just the right amount of crunch, making each forkful an exciting medley of textures and tastes.

Beyond the food, Del Taco Lemon Grove strikes a welcoming note with friendly staff who consistently provide efficient and courteous service—a sentiment echoed by patrons like Valerie G and Mink Hold, who celebrate the consistently fresh food and warm atmosphere. Whether you’re grabbing a quick lunch at the drive-thru or enjoying a family meal with their spacious seating, this location balances speed with quality without compromising on flavor.

While most guests leave delighted, the bustling pace at times means a solitary team member might be handling multiple roles—as noted by some—but the commitment to serving good food remains evident. The reasonably priced menu coupled with generous portions makes it a dependable spot for both budget-conscious diners and fast food aficionados alike.

Ultimately, Del Taco in Lemon Grove offers more than just fast food; it’s a destination for those who appreciate the harmony of bold Mexican flavors baked into classic American favorites. Whether it’s the rich, juicy burgers, crunchy tacos, or inviting fiesta platters, the experience here feels like a familiar neighborhood spot where quality meets casual dining with a genuine smile.

You know what? It’s just Del Taco but some fast food locations are def better than others and this one always delivers. I came at 6:30pm on a Friday (cuz I know staff matters too!!) and all of them rocked my world in the best way. Food was delicious, service was courteous and efficient, five stars. It’s not the most rewarding job so I truly appreciate that. Thank you Del Taco employees?

Today is my last day for fast food! I decided to have Del taco in Lemon Grove. I was treated very well as I ordered my food. I brought the whole family and had the fiesta pack and macho fries. Food was fresh and we had a good time eating dinner together. Good place to take the family at a reasonable price for fast food.

I wanted to try these Epic Tortas at Del Taco. I went to the one located in Lemon Grove. I was helped by Claudia at the drive thru . She was very friendly and helpful. I ordered the 2 Epic tortas of carn asada and chicken bacon ranch. I loved the Carne asada better than the Chicken bacon ranch. The steak was tender, seasoned, and no fat / gristle. The bread was toasted and nice & soft. I enjoyed both tortas. I would definitely try it again. Overall, I'll give this place a 5 star rating.

Service was average. Place is generally empty with 2-3 guests every time I'm there, but the drive thru is non stop. Food was freshly made.

Great Food and Great Service. The thing that seperates This Del Taco location from 5 stars is that it has no place to plug in my phone while dining in. I've never had a bad meal here. One favorite is Carne Asada fries. I sometimes steal a little carne asada, tomatoes and guacamole and put on ctunchtada or other items.
