The restaurant chain’s menu includes grilled chicken, carne asada steak, house-made guacamole, slow-cooked beans and its signature Queso Blanco. 

Del Taco franchise development vice-president Van Ingram stated: “We are thrilled to welcome this dynamic group of entrepreneurs to the Del Taco family.  

“Their passion for the brand and business acumen are exactly what we look for when bringing on a new franchisee. We are confident that they will be successful in bringing the fresh ingredients and bold flavours of Del Taco to the Indianapolis community.”
