Del Taco is starting the New Year fresh. The fast-food chain released designs for their new prototype restaurant concept aptly named Fresh Flex.

This new store will feature significant upgrades to the traditional Del Taco concepts in both design and service models wrapped within a sleek and contemporary aesthetic.

Del Taco's new Fresh Flex store focus will be towards accessibility, speed of service, and transparency.

The drive-thru will feature a double-lane system allowing for mobile orders and delivery driver pick-ups to efficiently check-in and get their meals. There will also be third-party delivery pick up stations to expedite the speed of service.

Del Taco's Fresh Flex will also feature a designated parking area for those who wish to eat in their cars.

Within the restaurant, coolers display ingredients to be prepped at the restaurant daily and a working kitchen format that guests can easily see to provide transparency.

Could more fast-food chains be pivoting towards this even quicker-service store model as we continue through our current pandemic?

We reached out to Del Taco who are anticipating a late summer 2021 opening in the Orlando Market. Very excited to see this go national.
