September 25, 2026 // LAKE FOREST, Calif. – Del Taco is now open in Turlock, California, expanding the brand’s presence across the Central Valley. Located at 2705 W.

Monte Vista Ave., the new restaurant gives Turlock locals the chance to 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.
