I don't eat much Del Taco, but on this day destiny had other plans. I was trying to visit this awesome place called The Loose Caboose down the street, I just wanted to buy fresh honey and feed koi fish, but as soon as I pulled up - I had to pee bad. Loose Caboose doesn't have a restroom, so I decided to double back to the Del Taco I saw on the way in to Santa Paula and that's where this review begins. Firstly, I was with my girlfriend who has told me on more than one occasion that she has never tried Del Taco in her whole life. I went inside, peed and thought about returning to the car with tacos. The guy behind the register was awesome, he helped me pick out two classic tacos - the chicken soft taco (personal fav) and the staple that started it all - the Del Taco Classic taco. Yes, I only bought two tacos for us to sample because I already have problems with being fat and all as it is. What was so cool is the cook in the back asked what I wanted and started it before they even rang me up. Such speed, agility and compassion for me. The service was the best I have ever experienced at a Del Taco. Friendly, professional and I could tell they just wanted me to enjoy tacos and wanted nothing more from me. I returned to the car with our tacos and did a food review with my girl. The Del Taco classic was good. The beef danced with the cheese, the tomatoes gave a pop of freshness and the shell was crunchy but not stale. The star of the show to me was the chicken soft taco. The meat is seasoned to perfection, the shredded lettuce and creamy sauce give it a very crisp, light taste and texture. My girlfriend, who is not impressed with Mexican-ish fast food thought the tacos were pretty good too. 5 Stars for service, I will pee there again and most likely order more tacos next time I'm in town. read more

Got my usual green burrito. But eat these things for 50 years. This has been one of the worst ones. I don't know if they had red sauce mixed with the green sauce that it was a nasty green burrito. read more

BEWARE - CARD GOT SKIMMED HERE!! My credit card got skimmed at this location on Friday January 23rd. The next day there was a charge made at Chili's in Edward's, near Lancaster, CA. Luckily this was a prepaid card with less than $60 on it. I tried calling the phone number listed here, but the number is disconnected. I'm thinking the employees were involved! I will be contacting corporate. DO NOT GO HERE. OR USE CASH ONLY!!! read more

This is the best Del taco I've ever been to the man that manages it and his employees are so sweet and they do such a good job. The food always comes out hot and fresh and tasty with crispy hot french fries and it's the only place that I go in the area and feel like I'm not getting ripped off they do such a great job. Highly recommend. read more

This place honestly was not what I expected the food tasted old and the restroom was completely filthy with no running water ... DONT STOP KEEP GOING ! read more

One item, one simple request. No cheese. Couldn't even achieve that one simple request. read more

Del Taco - Chicken taco with "No cheese " Enough said - Mexican Near Me - Santa Paula, California

I'm sorry but. HOLY CRAP! I've been waiting on my food for about 30 minutes now. A burrito and fries. THATS ALL. This is horrid service and i will not be coming back again. read more

The food here looks like it was taken out of a garbage can. This place is in desperate need of a health inspector. I threw all my food away.

Worst Del Taco. They should close it down and build something else. Everything is run down including their employees. They shut down operation at 10:30pm when they are clearly open until 11pm. The food at night tastes like it's been sitting all day. The inside of the restaurant is old. Light fixtures are falling off and the kitchen looks like it's from the 1980s. Just moved to the area and will let all of neighbors know that they are not clean and food will get you sick. read more

If I could leave 0 stars I would. I will never understand why a place lists they are open till 11pm, but if you ever go past 10:30 pm the workers will hide and not answer the drive thru speaker. I get it sometimes it's dead, but if you say you're open till 11pm then you should be open till 11pm. read more

Negative 5 stars! The most disgusting fast food burrito I've ever tried to eat in all my 49 years! Only got 2/3rds of it down before chucking it out the car door for the coyotes to hopefully enjoy Entire burrito was cold with old tasting ingredients. Had to force myself to take bites, only doing so because of being very hungry Got home and ralphed the entire thing into the kitchen sink Now I've got fingers crossed hoping the food-poisoning demons don't come a knocking on my guts door tomorrow morning This Del Taco ought to be ashamed of themselves for serving this utter hog sh!t excuse for 'food'! read more

Slow service and only 2 people working Saturday's lunch rush. It shouldn't take more than 20 min to get a burrito.

Horrible food, had trouble ordering because of mic problems, and I feel like the prices are overpriced

The food is mediocre at best. The manager is lazy and rude so the employees are too. It's an unpleasant experience most times. I have worked fast food many many times, this is poor service. It's not even a pleasant environment. I'm so disappointed because there isn't another near us at all for about 20 minutes. read more

The food was mediocre for the high prices. The service was a nightmare. I definitely don't recommend stopping here. Pass it up. The owner was even rude as well as the employees. Avoid at all costs. read more

This is the most disgusting Del taco I have ever been in in my life. The lettuce had a weird smell and was super soggy the fries were brown and gross, there were no refills on your soda. The floors were sticky there were giant spiders spiderwebs and bugs all over the restaurant. Trash was overflowing from the trash cans. There was no air-conditioning or ventilation in the restaurant it was stuffy and smelly just like a gas station bathroom. They should shut down this restaurant because it's a hazard to peoples health. read more

See all

Came up to the counter & wasn't greeted or even acknowledged. Then it took them 5+ mins to even come take our order . Mind you 3-4 people were looking at us and/or walked past the counter. I looked at their screen and they have like 9 orders pending all turning red cause they're taking forever . There's like 3 people standing by the counter and 2 others moaning and groaning for their orders and 1 dude came up asking where his stuff was cause it's been 10-15 mins since he ordered . If you're in a rush looking for food - DO NOT come here . Go down a little further and get something else . read more

I usually get the Del Taco or a burrito from there and never really had a problem but last week at drive-through the was a girl that took our order and damn she is rude especially when our coupon didnt go through she just seem irritated at the fact. When another customer pulled up to order, she was rude to them too since we were wiaiting while the manager fixes our coupon situation and we heard her talkand we were like, damn shes rude be nice to them She's a short Hispanic girl with no smile and her expression says it all read more

Cheapest fast food around. Love their quesadilla and choices of Hot sauce. Del scorcho and del Inferno are a real hot, not an American hot, and service is quick. Deciding from all the menu choices takes the time. In the hall connecting Del Taco to a convenience store are large bathrooms. read more

Where else can you fill your belly for just a couple of bucks? And with actually rather tasty fare? I am costantly amazed at how they do it. Sure, I admit, I usually spend a bit more for the costlier items these days, but it is sometimes fun to relive my impoverished youth and see how little it takes to fill me up. Reasonably tasty food in a wide range of price options. Good for any income level! read more

Food COLD . Fries cold and Hamburger warm not hot . Fake smiles. people work there don't care about food give out . read more

Del Taco - Fries cold not heat at all . Hamburger little cold . Del taco care about what server people . Do you want cold hot ? - Mexican Near Me - Santa Paula, California

This Del Taco is great. Clean. Friendly. Bathrooms clean. The food was actually fresh and amazing. Fries cooked perfectly. I love the set up and lay out. Not from around here and normally enjoy Del Taco but this one is definitely the one of the best ones we have been to. Edit* fix spelling. And also got a milk shake when leaving and it is great too. Wonderful girls working tonight! read more

I'd forgotten how much I enjoy the food at Del Taco. Several of their key ingredients seem better to me than other fast food joints. The prices are cheap and the staff here was polite and friendly. I just needed a little pick me up and their mini cheese quesadilla hit the spot. Clean restaurant and convenient bathrooms. I'll stop here again. read more

Not that great place to eat the food taste like it's a few days old and they keep reheating the food

Service is too slow 10 minutes and still waiting for my order 2 people that ordered behind me Got their food before me and they lost my order and then the employees we disrespectful to me. Told me that I was telling the truth. read more

Stopped here cause I was doing a mini road trip. Got a carnitas burrito and fries and everything was on point. Thanks for taking good care of cooking the food! Will stop by if I'm ever in town again :) read more

Del Taco - Mexican Near Me - Santa Paula, California

If you desire ice cream or milkshakes don't waste your time going to the end of town. The night manager informed me they don't server ice cream after 830p. It's best to go to Jack in the box or MC Donald's. All other items are tasty and fresh. read more

Lola was rude, and took forever to do ANYTHING. She didn't acknowledge me when I walked up, and then it took 15 minutes for 2 orders of fries which she told me she couldn't add extra salt too. The people behind me got their order first. The worst costumer service I have ever encountered. When I asked for her name, she mumbled it, so I asked again and she rudely looked back and said it again quickly. The. Worst. read more

If i could leave half a star or less I would so gladly do that. this del taco has struck a chord in me that required punctual reviewing. I ordered a beyond meat taco combo and specified no cheese as well as a bean and rice burrito. the tacos were real meat tacos and packed monstrously with cheese. I threw them away and am starving on my 7 hour road trip. now you may wonder? well what about the burrito? you shouldnt be starving? That burrito should not even have a food name. It was stale. the rice was hard. and i am glad biting into it did not kill me. i want to cry. i will never trust anyone again. and will always check my food before i walk away from any stranger's counter. read more

Had an issue with the cashier and requested to speak to a manager, but was told he/she was at the bank.

I love Del taco, but this location is awful. They take forever, they forget the meat, little cheese, They make food with there bare hands. Just nasty!!! read more

Stopped in tonight and asked what burrito had everything except rice was looked at with confusion. Said ground beef, lettuce, tomato & cheese and all I got was a price $. So I paid and then asked for cheddar potato toppers and paid again . Meanwhile my burrito had already been delivered and a woman had been asking questions and was indecisive and after my poppers had been sitting I finally asked the fry cook to hand me my poppers since the cashier was just gonna keep waiting for the lady who really had no idea what she wanted. Your pm shift could give a crap! I even heard the cook tell the cashier she needed to charge extra for beef on an order. read more

DISGUSTING. It's Del Taco. I'm passing through and hey, they have to have some standard of quality, right? Maybe they should let you know you get a special side when you order here. Food poisoning. Strike one: they got my order wrong. I ordered two burritos, two fries, two tacos. Red or green sauce, they asked. NONE. NO SAUCE. I hate that shizz. I'm in their drive thru so I get my order and get back on the road to lake piru, open a burrito and take a bite, it's full of red sauce. Seriously? But it's a big we'r going to the lake day so I keep going. Strike two: i give my kid the fries and they're cold. we're not a BLOCK from this place and the fries are already cold. are you KIDDING ME? Strike three: about 40 min after eating this crap both my kid and I get the runs. I wont elaborate. It was gross and painful and horrible and the burrito was the only thing that we ate in common all day. Del Taco? Time for some quality control. read more

This del taco is a joke dining hour suppose to close at 10pm I get there at 9:40pm and the employee from del taco already have the doors locked why she is mopping then tells me that they are closed why the sign says 10pm. I had a family of 10 with me that was hungry and disappointed I will never go to this del taco again same rude lady turned me away a year ago when I arrived at 9:50pm which again they close at 10pm shows me that they are not honoring their hours of service which I was gonna take up to corporate but why bother I'm not gonna come here no more and I will encourage others to not eat at this location because of poor poor rude customer service and the young lady that work nights not honoring hours of service read more

This place is great! Always fresh ingredients and made just how I would make it. I pass thru here often and every time it's delicious!

Came in at 6pm on Tuesday and this lady had so much attitude. We weren't familiar with the menu so we asked her questions and she stared at us for 2 minutes and did some stupid head bob like an angry high schooler. Awful customer service read more

I live in Santa Paula yet I live too far away for Uber Eats. Doordash, Grubhub, and Postmates all don't even have Del Taco on the menu.

Very dirty. Food is served cold like it was made hoours ago. Those were the best highlights. Customer service is down right horrible. Id rather starve b4 i go back. read more

I love Del Taco and I am loyal but this is one of only two branches that consistently gives bad service.

The large lady with the horribly drawn on eyebrows was extremely rude. Took her over 5 minutes to even acknowledge us, and when my dad asked her to take something off the menu she didn't listen. When she told us our total it was obvious she didn't take it off and then when asked again, she proceed to say "well you didn't tell me that". No exaggeration. Also felt the need to correct my disabled uncle on the pronunciation of guacamole as if that was necessary. read more
