Well, if you know me, you know I'm not much (if at all) into fast food. However, driving from Vegas back home has its perks. Who knew this was a little gem way out in Barstow. I heard about this place from my husband who in turn heard some good reviews from some friends, so we decided to stop and try a few tacos. It definitely brought me back to my high school days, the tacos were amazing! You actually get a lot too, everything tastes fresh and really good! I'm not saying it's the healthiest food choice around but it sure was good and if you're in that area or stopping through, it's worth it to stop and enjoy a taco or two. Hot sauce is pretty good as well, overall I'd come back should I travel this way again.

Taco salad

Food is always good here. We like stopping on the way to Vegas. What is fun is how they have the old classics like the bin taco, taco salad and combo cup. Staff is friendly with quick service. The restaurant is very clean. Stop in!

Always full sauce baskets

Always love stopping in Barstow for the original Del Taco experience. The lady at the register this after was a bit grumpy, but as always, the food was spectacular! Maybe she just had an off day. Love this location for the decor.

Best Del Taco! The chicken taco's had so much chicken and cheese on them like they used to have back in the days! And so yummy as well! These are my favorite! Service was fast and staff was polite & friendly. It quite a large place so it's nice to eat inside. If you're ever on your way to Vegas make sure and stop at Theo Del Taco!

Cheddar Quesadilla

Stopped by on our way to Las Vegas for a quick bite of nostalgia. You see, growing up in Phoenix, we didn't have Del Taco back then. The closest location was in Blythe, Ca. Of course we'd always stop there for a tasty snack. I'd usually opt for a cheese quesadilla with green sauce and a cup of refried beans topped with red sauce. So good! Anyways, I didn't get the bean and cheese cup on this trip but definitely got the cheese quesadilla. Also a Barstow Taco and a red burrito (bean and cheese with red or green sauce). Everything tasted fresh and delicious. While sometimes the line goes out the door and the place gets packed, the counter and kitchen move at lightning speed. We had our order within about 3 minutes of ordering. Bathrooms and dining room are spotless, so a great place to stop on your road trip! Oh, they also have baskets or sauce packets on every table! So much to love! At the end of the day, it's still Del Taco, not a lot of difference between corp and original.

Barstow Tostada
Tamara T.

I will preface this by saying Del Taco has never been on my rotation of fast food restaurants that I visit, but I had to try the original. I visited on a weeknight and the staff were very attentive and fast and courteous. I tried the Barstow tostada and the taco. I thought they were ok and pretty basic and used a lot of their hot sauce packets. I love that each table had a basket full of salsa packets as I ran through them pretty quickly. Since this location is located right off the freeway, I would say it's a good snack to hold you over until you get to Vegas or back home if you're on a long drive. It doesn't upset the stomach and it's filling without making you feel disgustingly full. If you're in a rush get it to-go and if you choose to dine-in, there's plenty of indoor seating and even an area that's a little separated from the main dining room so it's great for large parties or bus loads of people. Inside it's a throwback to the past which I'm not mad at. It's a museum of sorts with pictures of important people that made Del Taco and citizens of Barstow as well as race cars. Also, restrooms, great place to stop and use the restrooms since it's clean. If you visit Barstow it's a must try attraction.

Inside tables have baskets of sauce!
Heather H.

Inside was clean, staff members were kinda rude but the tacos were filled well and they had plenty of sauces available. I asked if I could use my Del Taco app for reward points and the guy at the cou tet said we don't use the app here, which I found very odd. Quick pit stop don't expect greatness.

5 star gluttony at your service. Everyone at this place eats with wild abandon and no remorse for the ramifications. Your typical guest will order between 50% and 100% more than they would order at a normal Del Taco in OC. Everything here is bigger, better tasting and deliscious! Service is always great and the place is clean! And if you are lucky, you may run into Ed, THE Founder of Del taco.

Taco Bun (10/10)
Jonathan K.

Note: THEY DO NOT ACCEPT COUPONS THAT YOU GET IN THE MAIL! They are not affiliated with corporate del taco, so coupons won't work here. A little bit of a bummer.. I'm a diehard Del Taco fan. I'm always defending the Del Scorcho's pride. No one can ever say that other place (Taco Bell) is any better. Please. So happy to try out THE ORIGINAL DEL TACO WOOHOOO!!!!! This spot is located in the heart of the Barstow fast food galore, so there's lots of other options if others in your party are not interested...though why would they not be interested....You can get some things here you can't find anywhere else! The inside decor is unlike any other del taco. Filled with history and nostalgia, a old-school diner feel. Taco Bun (10/10)- FOUND NOWHERE ELSE! - Literally the taco, except in burger buns....so good! I'm not biased... - They pack it with meat, cheese, tomatoes. wow so good - Top it off with some Ketchup + Del SCORCHO (medium), and I'm in heaven. Love this place. Just a little sad couldn't use coupons, but that's ok.

So good

One of my favorite fast food places is Del Taco and I just had this in Barstow for an early snack before my late dinner. Haven't eaten all day so I wanted to just grab a quick bite before getting to Las Vegas. We went through the drive and it was fast and easy. My chili cheese fries were fresh and loaded up to the max!! The box felt like it had a lot of weight in it. Also, all the food was super hot and just so enjoyable. I never had a Del Taco like this and would come back here.

The legend
Kevin S.

If you've ever been to Tustin California, there's a Del taco on Red Hill blvd and I lived in the apartments right behind them through high school. It was just my Dad and I, no Mom cooking up good dinners. So to me, Del Taco was Moms home cooking. I would eat a breakfast burrito on the way to school, they put crinkle fries in them in those days. On the way home i would grab a green burrito and for $.99 a large fries, which filled a 32 oz cup in those days. Imagine my surprise when on the way home from Las Vegas in college we stopped at the GOAT of Del Tacos off of Lenwood. Those Barstow tacos loaded with a half pound of meat and the same amount of cheese. Workers coming to our table and refilling our drinks! I could not believe how amazing this place was and the rest of my life if I was near this location I 100% stopped to eat. Now I'm in my mid 40's and I don't really eat fast food anymore so it had been years since I ate here. Until today! The first thing I noticed was the workers were not as friendly as they used to be. No one came to my table to see if we were happy or if we needed a refill. In fact I ordered a bean burrito with no cheese and the lady running the show behind the counter was cranky because her burrito was dripping beans everywhere and i took it back for a well made one and she was legit offended I called her out on her half ass bean skills. By the way, their bean and cheese Burritos are literally like nine beans in a tortilla and about a pound of cheese. If you don't get cheese, there's not much going on, their beans are so runny at this location. It ain't what it used to be but it's still the GOAT of Del Tacos.

What's in the Barstow taco?

Ground beef, shredded lettuce, shredded cheese, and a tomato slice on top. They're also much bigger than a regular Del Taco taco.
