Del Taco chief marketing officer Tim Hackbardt said: “As part of our Del Taco Better Mex brand promise, we wanted to serve this unique Mexican street food experience to our guests with truly authentic flavours in our new Shredded Beef Birria and consomé.

“Our Shredded Beef Birria tacos and quesadilla deliver the classic experience of dipping them into the savoury consomé before eating while the ramen provides a unique flavour explosion of hot consomé filled with wavy noodles and authentic birria in a cup.

“With this introduction, we will not only be the first major quick-service restaurant chain to offer ramen, overnight we will become the largest restaurant chain in the country to serve ramen.”

In addition to the three Shredded Beef Birria items, Del Taco is launching a New Cookie Butter Shake featuring Biscoff Cookie Butter and Biscoff Cookie Crumbles for a limited time.

Additionally, Del Taco has also re-introduced its holiday gift card bonus programme.

In August this year, Del Taco announced that it would launch its New Honey Chipotle BBQ Brisket range.
