Del Taco Plays the Flavor Card in the Crispy Chicken Wars and Launches New Chocodays BeveragesRead Article
Lake Forest, CA - June 9, 2021 - Del Taco Restaurants, Inc. (NASDAQ: TACO), the nation's second largest Mexican quick service restaurant*, is celebrating a year of their Crispy Chicken success with a Crispy Chicken summer menu featuring one of the widest variety of items and flavors in the quick service category. As opposed to many quick service brands attempting to compete in the Crispy Chicken Wars by offering only one or two Crispy Chicken Sandwiches, Del Taco will be fielding four Crispy Chicken Tacos, three Epic Crispy Chicken Burritos, and a 3 Piece Crispy Chicken & Fries Box with choice of various sauces.
'Our fans have loved many of the unique flavors that we've introduced to our Crispy Chicken menu over the past year, from fruit-forward and sweet to cool and zesty,' said Tim Hackbardt, Del Taco's Chief Marketing Officer. 'We decided to bring out the best of our best for the summer so our guests can experience crispy chicken with amazing flavors for only $1 each for the Tacos and only $5 each for our three amazing fast-casual sized Epic Burritos. It will be hard for crispy chicken lovers to find another quick service menu that has this combination of value and must-try flavors anywhere in today's Crispy Chicken Wars.'
