This is the worst Del Taco I have ever been to! The food is not the same as any other I have been to. No breakfast slow, small, sloppy, cold. You name the bad this place has it. I am used to Del Taco being not so great service but the food is consistent with others. Did I say this was the worst Del Taco I've ever been to? Oh yeah I said it already.....

I'm from the west coast. del taco is life for me. EVERY single damn time we go there- something goes wrong. Either, they've closed early or their register isn't working and can't cash people out. We drive 30 minutes because that's how much we love Del Taco. This location is the reason I won't go back until I'm on the west coast again

Took 37 minutes through the drive thru with 6 cars in front of me. No large cups, no sweet tea, ordered large fries and got small. This used to be my favorite place to get tacos. The last time I was there I just left because the line wasn't moving at all. I wanted to give another chance so I went back today. It used to be a pleasure to go to Del Taco. Not anymore. Will not be going back.

Their dining room hasn't been open in years. Fine, I get that. Today went through the drive-thru and ordered 11 burritos. ELEVEN. Asked for extra sauce packets. No worry. Mentioned it again when I paid. Cashier asked if I wanted mild, medium, hot. Thirty dollars, two huge bags of burritos and 95 miles later, we don't have a single packet of sauce. Not one. I have tolerated crappy food and service for a couple years now but this is it. Please consider going somewhere else. The experience is horrible. SC sub part quality. Skip it.

As Del Taco lovers from SoCal from many years ago. My wife and I were excited to see one in our travels to Ocean Isle Beach NC. First off, we read the reviews before going and was set back a bit about all the negative reviews. Needless to say, we went not expecting much. We arrived early morning with only two employees working at the time. The wife ordered the two taco combo with fries and soda. I a combo burrito and a bean & cheese burrito with sour cream (I suggest everyone try it with sour cream, you can thank me later)Well, all I can say is…. Those reviewers must have come on a bad day as our food was just how we remembered. Delicious, hot and fresh. The only critique I have is the French fries although perfectly salted and tasty were slightly undercooked for our liking. And that is the reason for the 4-star rating.Thank you to Del Taco for reaching out across the country and opening more locations as I look forward to visiting this location on my yearly vacation trip to North Carolina.

In the past we have been disappointed at this Del Taco but this evening Im so glad we gave them another chance. We needed 60 tacos to feed our crew. The 2 gentlemen working got this huge order out for us and all the food was well prepared and enjoyable. Thank you Guys. We appreciate you!

First time at a del taco, was very excited to try it, I end up being given the wrong order which was whatever I'll eat it not that big of a deal but when I go to actually eat my food, there are bites taken out of it. I go back to tell them about this and the guy LAUGHS in my face and straight up days I'm lying. Even after I show him the food. He gets mad when I say I don't want the free food just the refund, he refused me a refund and told me I'd better just take the food.

I just moved out to South Carolina from Utah and I was excited to have a Del taco nearby. It was not the same as what I had back in Utah. The food was fresher the flavors were better and it had a better overall taste with a del taco are used to live in Utah. I do not know what’s going on with this location and if they’re using something different but it just seems that it’s very off far as the food goes.

Ordered three beyond tacos with sour cream. Proceeded to get two tacos and no sour cream. Went around the drive thru, was told they "were in a rush" and was offered to just get a side of sour cream. A

Grew up on this in cali. Drove 2.5 hrs to eat here for my husband's and my birthday.We asked if they do military discount. She said yes. Then charged us full price.It did not taste the same as on west coast and they were horrible people tbh..Their dining room was closed so we had to order drive through and sit outside.Daughter spilled her drink immediately. Hubby asked to get it refilled and she said "we didn't spill it so you have to buy a new one"After we just spent $75 and didn't even get all of our food
I first had Del Taco in California and fell in love with the fish tacos. I was excited to now have fish tacos here in Columbia. I was very disappointed!! They tasted NOTHING like the fish tacos from California. The shell was stale and the fish was hard. Although the service was quick and friendly it's not enough to make me return to this Del Taco. Maybe my expectations were too high after falling in love with the fish tacos from California.

I've been to different Del Tacos and this was not impressive. No Dine in only drive thru. Lady at drive thru messed up on most of our orders, so we had to go through the drive thru qgain. By the time we got to our hotel (less than 10 mins away) our food was nearly cold and bland. The secret sauce was mostly sour cream. When we got the french fries it wasn't much. The milkshakes we're great though. I know Del taco does better than this. So, I don't know why this was different. Plus overly expensive. Not sure I'll go to this one again.

My taco was Smashed to pieces, the fish taco was overcooked. It looked like they cooked it and then recooked it when I ordered it super dark and the fish was dry and like jerky. The fries tasted like fish. Won't come back. The first time I ate there it was amazing this time was horrible!

We ordered through Uber Eats and the food arrived in about a half hour which seemed great. BUT…fish in fish taco were rock hard and not edible. Same with fries. Guacamole tasted sour. Please put the emphasis back on quality. Such a shame.
