From the post:
>A Del Taco franchise took a risky, million-dollar move. Now, it's bankrupt. Matador Restaurant Group, a South Carolina-based operator of Del Taco locations in Georgia and Alabama, filed for Chapter 11 protection last week. It's the latest restaurant brand to collapse under financial pressure. The past year has been notably brutal for chains that cater to low- and middle-income diners. And it adds to a string of troubles for Del Taco itself. The brand — which competes with Taco Bell and offers $3 to $15 meals like steak tacos, guacamole and chicken burritos, and breakfast wraps — has struggled with falling sales. 'D*mmit, I like the fish tacos,' one Del Taco fan said on Reddit.
Every del-taco that ever existed around here has gone under in about a year. Just because it's cheap doesn't mean it's edible.
There is a old phrase for that. Good, Fast, or Cheap. Pick 2.
Their scheme might have worked, except for one thing: del taco sucks ass.
