Del Taco, the Mexican‑inspired fast‑food chain and longtime rival to Taco Bell, has abruptly shut down all of its 11 Georgia locations, fully exiting the state, reportedly, for the third time.
The sudden closures, which occurred Tuesday without warning, affect restaurants in Snellville, Lawrenceville, Smyrna, Douglasville, Calhoun, Dalton, Centerville, Fort Oglethorpe, Rome, and Columbus. Google now lists these locations as “permanently closed,” and Georgia has been removed from Del Taco’s online store locator.
