TL;DR
Del Taco has opened its first location in the Myrtle Beach area, marking its expansion into South Carolina's coastal markets. The new restaurant is owned and operated by franchisee Rob Tanner, CEO of Impeccable Capital.
Del Taco, the nation’s second-largest Mexican quick service restaurant* is now open in Socastee, South Carolina. Located at 4570 Dick Pond Rd., the new restaurant is the first Del Taco in the Myrtle Beach area.
It proudly introduces the brand to one of South Carolina’s fastest-growing coastal markets, adding to Del Taco’s presence in the South. South Carolinians can now experience Del Taco’s bold flavors across its signature tacos, burritos, quesadillas, burgers and fries, all prepared fresh to order in every restaurant’s working kitchen. Featuring quality ingredients such as fresh grilled chicken, carne asada steak, house-made guacamole, hand-grated cheddar cheese, beans made from scratch and creamy Queso Blanco, Del Taco offers guests a distinctive blend of freshness, flavor and value.
The restaurant is owned and operated by experienced franchisee Rob Tanner, CEO of Impeccable Capital, a privately held commercial real estate development firm whose partners include Dr. Jeffrey Postal, Amit Sehgal and local basketball legend Carlos Boozer, who starred at Duke University and spent 13 years in the NBA. Tanner and team are opening a second location in Little River in the coming weeks which will add a combined 120 jobs to the area and extend the brand footprint to communities along the northern Grand Strand coast.
“This opening marks the beginning of an exciting expansion for us with Del Taco,” said Tanner. “Horry County is a dynamic and fast-growing market, and we’re excited to introduce a brand that delivers quality and value in a way that stands out.”
