There’s always a lot of excitement when a beloved fast-food chain moves into Colorado — we’re still on the Portillo’s watch and last month, we reported that Southern mainstay Bojangles plans to debut its first outpost in the state this year. California-born In-N-Out made the biggest splash of all when it made its way to Colorado in 2020 — remember the twelve-hour-long line that sparked fights in the parking lot?

But now, another chain that got its start in California has left the state completely: deltaco just closed eighteen of its nineteen Colorado locations.

“Del Taco is proud to have been serving the state of Colorado since 2003 and we appreciate the ongoing support of our loyal guests,” says a Del Taco spokesperson. “At this time, our Denver and Colorado Springs franchise locations are temporarily closed. We will re-open these locations as soon as possible and will share updates as they become available. The Del Taco location in Grand Junction is owned and operated by a different franchisee and remains open for business. Thank you for your patience and support.”
