   Wow. I thought they learned their lesson in 1984. If we need another low-end taco place in this era of ubiquitous Taco Bells and Chipotle/Freebirds/Bullritos/Mission Burritos, why not Taco Bueno?

   From Colleen:

   How come they went away in the first place? If I had my druthers I’d eat there instead of Taco Bell. That’s not saying much tho.

   The Del Taco website confirms it as a “coming soon” location.

   From JayC:

   I’d be happy for Two Pesos. still bummed they lost the lawsuit for “infringement” with Taco Cabana.
   and I was thinking the same thing about the tacos and crinkle cut frozen fries…why???

   also, Carl’s Jr is going in on Ella north of 610.

    There isn’t enough alcohol in the world to offset how gross Del Taco is…

    Didn’t Del Taco have cheap hot-sauce-seasoned hamburgers too? It’s been nearly thirty years; I can’t exactly remember.

    The last time I had a Del Taco was in Vegas and it was one of the worst things I have ever ate, but I would give them one more shot. I would have preferred Taco Bueno though, now that place is great!

    Oh my God, those combo burritos and fries got me through many a long night working at UH way too many years ago. This is as good as In n’ Out coming here to me.

    I’m pretty sure that the Goode Company Taqueria building on Kirby was originally a Del Taco.

    Isn’t there one in Conroe on 105 just west of I-45? A lot better than Taco Bell.

    From JayC:

    there was a Del Taco in Conroe off 336 and Frazier. it closed when they pulled out of Texas (1985?)
    I think it become the Long John Silvers. probably been torn down and rebuilt since then.

    From John:

    I’d like to see them reopen just one location from their last run in this market. They had one on Edgebrook, another on Braeswood near Fondren… it became a Shipleys after. I’m not sure if its still there.
