About Taco Bell

Taco Bell is one of the most established Mexican chains in the United States. Founded in 1962 (64 years ago) and headquartered in Irvine, CA, it now operates approximately 7,200 locations across all 50 states (plus a growing international footprint in many cases). The brand has navigated multiple waves of fast-food evolution — from the original drive-thru boom, through the 1990s value-menu wars, the 2000s premium-burger and chicken-sandwich era, and the 2010s shift to mobile-first ordering and delivery.

The menu we list on this page reflects the chain's national US lineup. Some markets get regional exclusives, limited-time promotional items, and breakfast or late-night menus that vary by location. Pricing also varies by city; California and major metros tend to run 10–25% above the national average due to wage and rent costs.
