US-based Mexican quick service restaurant Del Taco has expanded its footprint in Las Vegas by opening its first location in Circus Circus Hotel Casino.

The second location is scheduled to open in the near future at the Excalibur Hotel Casino, located at 3850 S Las Vegas Boulevard.

The restaurant company stated that the two locations will be opened by the franchise group Feel Good Brands.

It added that it will be the first time a Del Taco Fresh Flex layout will open in a casino setting.

Feel Good Brands founder and CEO Lincoln Spoor said: “We are thrilled to bring the iconic Del Taco brand to the equally iconic Circus Circus and Excalibur Casinos.

“The two stores provide guests access to a quality, convenient option to satisfy their late-night, early-morning cravings and everything in between.

“We know our guests work up an appetite while exploring the ‘always on’ atmosphere of the Las Vegas Strip. Del Taco’s commitment to using high-quality, fresh ingredients to create a convenient, hearty meal remains at the heart of this partnership.”

Both Del Taco stores are located within the casino areas and feature the sleek, modernised design and bold colour palettes of a Fresh Flex layout.

The two locations will offer a wide range of menu items such as EPIC burritos, tacos, burgers and Del Taco’s crinkle-cut fries.

The Circus Circus and Excalibur locations also serve breakfast items for the early risers.
