A new quick-service Mexican restaurant known for its guacamole and $1 tacos is open in Bellefontaine.

Del Taco, located at 2079 S. Main St., offers a variety of tacos and burritos, as well as burgers and fries.

“We are excited to bring our winning combination of freshly-prepared food at an incredible value to Ohio with this new location in Bellefontaine,” Brandi Joseph, director of operations for the local Ohio franchise said. “Our menu has something to satisfy every craving – including our new, crave-able Epic Burrito with Crispy Chicken and Fresh Guacamole.”

The new restaurant uses ingredients like fresh grilled chicken and carne asada steak, hand-sliced avocado, hand-grated cheddar cheese, slow-cooked beans made from scratch and creamy Queso Blanco in many of their menu items, a press release from Del Taco said.

The company has more than 600 Del Taco locations across 14 states with plans to expand.

"The new franchisee has plans to open more locations in the Columbus area,” the press release said.
