For nontraditional locations, does Del Taco provide prototypical plans?

According to Del Taco's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, Del Taco does not provide prototypical plans for nontraditional locations. However, Del Taco may provide kitchen design options, image and operational specifications, and various other standards for these locations.

This means that franchisees interested in opening a Del Taco restaurant in a nontraditional location, such as an airport, food court, or university campus, will need to develop their own plans based on the franchisor's guidelines. This could potentially increase the initial investment and require more involvement from the franchisee in the design and construction phase.

Prospective franchisees should carefully consider the implications of this policy and discuss the specific requirements for nontraditional locations with Del Taco before making a final decision. Understanding the extent of design and construction support provided by Del Taco for these locations is crucial for accurate budgeting and project planning.
