Taco Del Mar Menu USA Prices 2026

Taco Del Mar burrito prices start at $9.99 for the smaller Mondito and top out at $13.49 for the smothered Wet Burrito. The star here is the Mondo Burrito, a 24-ounce monster that has been the chain’s calling card since 1992. You pick your protein, your tortilla (flour, wheat, tomato, or spinach), then rice, beans, cheese, and salsa, all rolled up assembly-line style while you watch. Honestly, the Mondo is one of the best burrito values in fast casual. It is huge, it is stuffed to the seams, and it still costs less than most sit-down lunch entrees.

My pick? The Mondo with braised chicken, black beans, and a little extra pico. The chicken is slow-cooked and genuinely juicy, not the dry stuff some chains serve. And if you like a little mess, get it wet. The enchilada sauce soaking into the tortilla is a whole different experience.

Taco Del Mar taco prices start at $4.50 for a single taco and $8.99 for two. The fish tacos are the ones the chain built its name on. The name literally means “taco of the sea,” and the Rippin Fish Tacos live up to it: crispy baked white fish, shredded cabbage, pico, cheese, and that famous Baja White Sauce with a squeeze of lime. If you have never been here, start with the fish tacos. Trust me on this one.

Quick tip: the single taco is the cheapest item on the whole menu if you skip the cookie, and two tacos with a side of rice and beans make a filling lunch for under $14. The fish taco is my go-to whenever I walk in hungry and a little indecisive. It never lets me down.

The Baja Bowl is basically the Mondo Burrito without the tortilla, and at $11.49 it is the same price. Same fillings, same proteins, served in a bowl so you can go low-carb without feeling like you are missing out. The Taco Salad, at $12.49, comes in a crispy-baked shell that you can break up and eat with the salad. It is crunchy, messy, and honestly a lot of fun.

If you are watching carbs, the Baja Bowl with chicken, black beans, pico, and guac is one of the smartest orders on the menu. It is filling, it is fresh, and you skip the 200-plus calories a big flour tortilla brings.

Nachos and quesadillas at Taco Del Mar run from $10.00 for cheese nachos to $12.99 for the loaded Super Meat Nachos. The Super Meat Nachos are a legit shareable plate: crispy chips buried under seasoned meat, beans, cheese, jalapenos, olives, pico, onions, sour cream, and guacamole. The quesadillas are simpler but done right, golden and crispy on the outside, melted cheese and your protein of choice inside.

The nachos are the move when you are splitting food with a friend. One order of Super Meat Nachos plus two drinks runs about $21 and feeds two people who are not starving. Pretty hard to beat that.

Platters are the closest thing Taco Del Mar has to a sit-down dinner. The enchilada platters come with rice and beans on the side, and at $12.99 they are priced like a fast-casual entree but eat like a full plate dinner. If you want a little of everything, the Enchilada and Taco Platter is the one.

Yes, and they are the smartest way to order if you want a drink and a side with your entree. Taco Del Mar combo prices run from $14.99 for the Baja Tacos Combo to $18.99 for the Loaded Nachos and Enchilada Platters combos. Combos typically pair your entree with chips and a small drink, and the upgrade over buying everything separately saves you a couple of bucks.

Sides at Taco Del Mar run from $4.00 for chips and salsa or tots and queso to $5.00 for chips with guacamole or queso. The guacamole is made fresh in-store every day, and you can tell. It is chunky, bright, and nothing like the gray-green tub stuff. Drinks are standard fountain sizes plus bottled options.

The kids menu keeps it simple and cheap. Kids combos run $6.99 and include a drink, and there is a $1.99 chips and cheese option for the smallest appetites. Every kids meal comes with a choice of chips or a dessert, which is a nice touch.

Dessert here is short and sweet, literally. Two options: a chocolate fudge brownie for $3.25 and a chocolate chip cookie for $1.50. The cookie is the cheapest item on the entire menu, which makes it the easiest add-on in fast food. Grab one on your way out. You will not regret it.

Taco Del Mar catering prices run about $14 per person for hot bars, with platters from $40 to $52. The hot taco bar, taco salad bar, nacho bar, and burrito bowl bar all land around $14 per person, which is competitive for feeding a group. Box lunches run $14.00 each. Meal Kits to Go let you build your own tacos, burritos, or nachos for groups of 4, 8, or 12 people, with two hours advance notice.

For parties, I would go with the Hot Taco Bar. People love building their own, it covers picky eaters and big eaters alike, and cleanup is basically zero. Call your local spot ahead for catering orders, since availability varies by franchise.

Taco Del Mar nutrition is one of the chain’s quiet strengths. The whole menu is trans-fat free, the beans are lard-free, the taco shells are baked instead of fried, and the salsas and guacamole are made fresh daily. That does not make a loaded nacho platter a health food, but it does mean the baseline ingredients are cleaner than a lot of fast food. If you are counting calories, the Baja Bowl and the tacos are your friends. The burritos, especially the wet ones, are the heavy hitters.

*Calorie figures marked with an asterisk are approximate ranges based on published values for comparable items, since Taco Del Mar does not publish a full per-item calorie table for every location. The two exact figures (Kids Burrito 440 cal, Brownie 320 cal) come from published delivery-menu listings. Ask your local restaurant for its current nutrition sheet if you need exact numbers.

Looking for full Taco Del Mar nutrition details? The Baja Bowl with grilled chicken, black beans, pico, and a scoop of guac is the order I recommend when I want something that tastes indulgent but does not wreck the rest of my day.

The best way to save at Taco Del Mar is the Rippin Rewards app. It is a tier-based points program: you earn points on every dollar you spend at participating locations and on online orders, and you can redeem 700 points for $5 off or 1,250 points for $10 off. You also get double points every Monday and $5 off just for signing up. If you eat here even twice a month, the app pays for itself fast.

Money-Saving Tips

1. Download Rippin Rewards before your first order. The $5 sign-up bonus alone covers a side of chips and guac. Double points Mondays add up quickly if Monday is your burrito day.

2. Order combos, not separates. A combo with chips and a drink saves a couple of dollars versus buying the entree, chips, and drink one by one.

3. Split the big stuff. The Mondo Burrito and the Super Meat Nachos are genuinely shareable. Split one with a friend and you are both full for about $6 each.

4. Watch for limited-time deals. Taco Del Mar has run BOGO-style promos around April 20 in past years, plus seasonal items like lobster tacos and citrus shrimp ceviche. Follow your local spot or check the app for the current offer.

5. Go for Meal Kits to Go for groups. Feeding four, eight, or twelve people? A meal kit is almost always cheaper per person than ordering everyone a separate entree.

Most Taco Del Mar locations open around 10:30 or 11:00 AM and close around 8:00 or 9:00 PM, seven days a week. Hours vary quite a bit by franchise, since most locations are independently owned. Some spots close earlier on Sundays, and a few stay open later on Fridays and Saturdays. Always check your local restaurant’s hours before you drive over, especially on holidays.

One thing to know: Taco Del Mar does not serve breakfast. The doors open late morning, so if you are craving a breakfast burrito, you will need to wait until lunch. The good news is that by 11 AM the line moves fast.

Taco Del Mar was founded in Seattle on June 8, 1992, by brothers James and John Schmidt, who were inspired by the beach shacks of southern Baja, Mexico, where burritos and tacos come fresh, fast, and full of flavor. The whole concept is built around that Baja beach vibe: beach-themed murals, surfboards, long board tabletops, and a relaxed, seaside feel. The chain grew fast, peaking at around 260 locations in 2010, and today operates about 60-plus locations across the United States and Canada under the REGO Restaurant Group, headquartered in Denver, Colorado. Through all the changes, the formula has stayed the same: made-to-order food, fresh ingredients, and portions that do not leave you hungry.

What I love about this place is that it never tried to be something it is not. It is not fancy. It is not trendy. It is a beach-shack taco joint that happens to have a drive-thru, and the food tastes like it. The Mondo Burrito is still the signature, the fish tacos are still the soul of the menu, and the prices still make sense.
