Just went to the Del Taco here in Huntsville AL for the first time. I
was NOT impressed.

Del Taco was the place you went to for post-party debriefs when Taco
Bell was closed. You never went there, you ended up there.

I do miss Naugles, though.

I feel like Taco Bell is basically the McDonald's of fast Mexican food, but I do like Taco Bell. I think Del Taco is a bit higher quality than Taco Bell though.

We need a bare bones, cheap, decent, old school taco joint. No more
crunchwraps, chicken stackers or cantina menus - just tacos, burritos
and nachos - and make it cheap.

On Sunday, April 12th poindexter FORTRAN was heard saying...

This whole thread has been very interesting to me. Where I live, Del Taco is 10000% better than Taco Bell. Del Taco's raw ingredients alone are enough to put it way over Taco Bell.

But the real stuff: Do you guys not have taco stands, Betos (or the million derivatives - Albertos, Ranchorito, etc.)?

I do like what Taco Bell has to offer, but I also like the idea of having a place that offers a more focused menu and lower prices.

That's one thing I like about In-N-Out - They don't offer a huge menu, but their prices are a bit lower than many other fast food places, and I think their food is pretty good. There's a new In-N-out being built not far from me, and I'm looking forward to that. I'll probably wait a while before I go to that location though because they tend to attract a lot of traffic for a while (which is something I'm not looking forward to). In-N-Out built a location about a 45 minute drive from me a few years ago, and it's still fairly busy much of the time.

Don't know if it checks all your boxes, but I liked King Taco in Covina when
I stopped there. It was the best burrito I had ever had... now it is tied
with Burrito Loco in Paducah.

The latter is a drive-up in what looks to be a former Rally's.

Kudos to In-N-Out for not gouging customers with their prices. When
California raised their minimum wage, the other fast food places jacked
their prices up significantly. In-N-Out raised their prices a quarter.

Although, their CEO is a twit. Daughter of the founder, moves the home
office from Southern California, where they started, to Tennessee,
claiming California is bad for business and a horrible place to raise
children - yet she's rich thanks to the very state that drove her
company's success.

She's since backpedaled, the company is only opening a regional office
for her in Tennessee and keeping the presence in California. The little
people can stay in hell, I suppose.

We don't have taco trucks as much where I am now as when I worked in
Silicon Valley, but we do have some great taquerias.

And, they ain't taco bell/del taco - that's a different beast
altogether.

Legends of Yesteryear and all other services hosted at

to the other end of the state (going to Dothan). I do not expect us to
be offline for more than a week. Hopefully I'll be able to get
everything back up a lot sooner. ---

Good luck with the move!
