Everything about Del Taco totally explained

Del Taco is a chain of North American fast-food restaurants specializing in Mexican-style offerings as well as American foods such as burgers, fries and shakes.
   The first Del Taco restaurant was founded in Yermo, California in 1961 by Ed Hackbarth and David Jameson. Success of the first restaurant led to a second restaurant in Corona, California, this time with a drive-thru window. Originally named Casa Del Taco, founders later reduced the name to Del Taco. The chain now has more than 500 restaurant locations across the United States. A private Nashville, Tennessee based holding named Sagittarius Brands, LLC, which is also the parent company of Captain D's Seafood purchased Del Taco in 2006. Del Taco is led by president Shirlene Lopez, and has its headquarters in the city of Lake Forest, California.
   The chain is concentrated in the western part of the US, with some Midwest locations in the St. Louis metropolitan area, Illinois and Michigan, and two Southern locations in the Nashville, Tennessee metropolitan area, and most recently, in Toledo, Ohio, Janesville, Wisconsin and Mishawaka, Indiana. One is located in Mount Juliet, TN and one on Charlotte Pike. The first Del Taco store in Illinois opened in November 2006 in Machesney Park; however, it closed a little over a year later in December 2007. Additionally, there's a Del Taco location on Naval Air Station Patuxent River in Maryland, as well as other military installations.
   Del Taco merged with the Naugles restaurant chain in 1988 and absorbed some of the Naugles menu, including the "Macho" items.
   On April 9, 2008, Del Taco announced the release of it's hottest sauce yet - Del Inferno, made with Ancho Chili Peppers.
