Review from Rochelle P.

1/4/2012 1 Check-in Here
We stopped here on our way back to LA from Napa. This was one of the only places for miles to come, so we needed fuel for our car and our bodies. I know this is not the best thing to eat and I usually don't like fast food to begin with, but Del Taco anytime is good. It reminds me of college years and needing a midnight snack to keep us going through midterms and finals. As for this Del Taco in particular, it is one of the biggest Del Tacos I've ever been to! They even have a play area for kids! The reason I give it 4 stars instead of 5 is that the bathroom (shared with the gas station) is disgusting! I know it's a gas station and fast food joint but there can be some sanitation!

Review from Michael W.

This is a Del Taco bastardization.
Yes I am the duke here.
Why?
Because...its here or Carl's Jr.
So obviously this place wins.
When you are in the middle of shit nowhere your standards go down.
They hide various stuff behind the counters....some stuff is poorly made etc.
I could barely eat my chicken taco del carbon last time I was there.
But I guess they weren't dripping in grease.
So yay for that.
Good luck getting a salt packet.Listed in: YELP 365 CHALLENGE, Camberia/San Simeon, Highway 5

They make good churros here for only 99 cents. Pretty cool for the most part. Located inside the Love's station. A weird thing though is that they put their hot sauces in a small cup on each table instead of a big bin with the other condiments. An annoying thing is that you have to ask the cashier for more napkins. They don't put those out in the open.
Buenos churros! -

I think this is the first Del Taco I have eaten in, as best I can recall. And I picked Gustine, California?
Where the hell is Gustine?
Well, it is right next to Santa Nella. And the Korean War memorial. No kidding. Didn't have time to check that out, but should have done it. It wasn't obviously sticking out amidst the fast food and gasoline signs, or I would have jumped in to take a look.
This is off highway I-5 when you are tripping down the great San Joaquin valley, most likely on your way between LA and SF or Sacto. It is part of the Love's travel stop center, and near the Del Oro Hotel, just off the interstate. (The Del Oro has a great old Spanish California mission appearance) and there is a Danish windmill nearby which locates Andersen's famous Pea Soup, you know, like the main one down in Buellton, near San Luis Obispo and Solvang.
Not haveing time to hit those interesting tourist spots here in the thriving metroplois of Gustine, we chose Del Taco for a road trip snack..
They have some unusual items not found at Taco Hell or other chains. Like deep fried Jalapeño rings. And fish tacos.
(Is the plural of Taco spelled Tacoes, or Tacos? )
And they also have every hispanic county fair attendee in California, Texas and Arizona (and New Mexico, and parts of Colorado, and it is spreading) favorite dessert......
Churros!
Yup, 99 cent churros. Not the long ones at the county fair (or Sea World, Six Flags, etc....they're popping up everywhere now!) for $3, but the same deep fried dough and sugar on about half the length.
I think I will "run FROM the border" and Taco Hell and try another Del Taco in the future.Listed in: Wanugee! Fast Food, Wanugee! Mexican, Wanugee! Central Valley

When you're making a five hour road trip from LA to the Bay, not all of your food choices are going to be wise ones. I was making a late night return to the Bay, pulled off to get some petrol, and made the mistake of walking into this Del Taco. Yeah, the one next to Pea Soup Anderson's, you know the one I'm talking about.
It's about one in the morning. Del is empty with the exception of two employees. One who is lolly-gagging at the counter oblivious of customers, and the other who has just finished mopping the kitchen floor and who is now shoving her ungloved (and fresh from mopping) hands into a five gallon drum of jalapenos.
A couple guys walk in behind me as I'm perusing the menu...I grab the cashier's attention and proceed to order.
Me: Yeah, I'll take the #4 combo with a Coke.
Her: Chicken soft taco combo? The chicken is extra.
Me: I'm sorry, what?
Her: Chicken is extra.
Me: Ummm...what do you mean extra? It's called a chicken soft taco combo right?
Her: Chicken is extra.
Me: [aggravated] LOOK AT THE MENU, IT'S A PICTURE OF A CHICKEN SOFT TACO.
Her: [blank look on her face] Chicken is extra. Do you want it or not?
Guys behind me: Excuse me, uh...we're not with him! -

I'll never understand why I love subpar Mexican fast food so much, but when you've been on the road for 5 and a half hours coming from Irvine, 4 chicken soft tacos (or even a quesadilla) and a side of small fries hits the spot. I was spoiled having many Del Tacos in my area in Irvine, but its scarce to find them in the Bay. honestly, I'd take this over Taco Bell. Chicken soft tacos were barely over a buck, but they're worth it. It may give you the runs the next morning, but its worth it... sorta haha.
FYI if you need a better idea of where this is, its next to the Andersen's Pea Soup restaurant with the big ass windmill. Cheerio. -

If you're coming from southern cali to northern cali or vice versa and tell yourself you next pit stop will be a Del Taco...take note that it's in GUSTINE, also Santa Nella, basically stop when you see Pea Soup Anderson's.
It's just nice to go to familiar places when on road trips with friends. Del Taco is basically the same everywhere you go. Many times we spent here laughing a storm up in the early/late hours...disturbing the workers...and other travelers.
Worth it. -

The first taste of Del Taco that I've had in years, and I remember how decent the food is at this fast food joint. I don't remember the fries and shakes that came with my fish tacos, but I'll take it. Weird-ass combination of food (tacos, shakes and fries?!), but still good. After driving down I-5, it's always nice to munch on food like this.

hurray for del taco on the way to LA! its right at that point where i start to get hungry, because i decided not eat before i left (specifically so that i could eat at del taco on the way).
it almost makes the drive down the 5 not suck. stick to the basics and you will be cool. dont get all adventurous and start ordering things with chicken or fish or else you are likely to be disappointed. crunchy taco. bean and cheese burrito. quesadilla. french fries. thats what you get here. -

If I closed my eyes and you didn't tell me where I was eating I would have guess Taco Bell however, there were french fries served with my burrito and taco...and they serve milkshakes too...that must mean Del Taco! Honestly not bad for fast food. This location is in the middle of nowhere but this is an alternative to all the major chains. Good tasting gut busting food.
