Taco Bell Quesarito Back: Get It for $1!

The Ultimate Taco Bell News: Quesarito Returns with a $1 Deal!

Calling all Taco Bell fans! The beloved Quesarito is making a comeback this holiday season. After years of fan outcry, Taco Bell has resurrected one of its most-requested discontinued menu items for a limited time. Plus, there's a jaw-dropping $1 deal you won't want to miss!

What Makes the Quesarito So Special?

First introduced nationwide in 2014, the Quesarito quickly became a cult favorite for its ingenious construction. This masterpiece features seasoned beef, rice, chipotle sauce, and reduced-fat sour cream—all wrapped in a grilled quesadilla shell loaded with melted cheese and nacho cheese sauce. It's essentially a burrito inside a quesadilla, creating the ultimate cheesy, saucy handheld experience. Fun fact: The Quesarito was pulled from menus in 2023 after being available only via app orders, leaving fans devastated. As one Reddit user lamented, "Words cannot describe my disappointment." Now, it's back by popular demand!

How to Score a Quesarito for Just $1

Mark your calendars for Tuesday, December 23! Taco Bell is giving away 30,000 Quesaritos for just $1 to its Rewards members. Here's how to claim yours:

1. Join the Taco Bell Rewards program (if you're not already a member)
2. Open the Taco Bell app at 5 PM ET / 2 PM PT
3. Look for the "Claim Reward" prompt
4. Be one of the first 30,000 to click it!

Important note: You'll need to add at least one qualifying item to your order. This deal is limited to one Quesarito per person. For everyone else, the Quesarito will be available for $4.99 during its limited run.

More Than Just Quesarito: New Creamy Garlic Sauce

Accompanying the Quesarito's return are two other fan-favorites back for a limited time:

• Cheesy Dipping Burritos: Burritos filled with your choice of protein and served with dipping sauces.
• Steak Garlic Nacho Fries: Loaded with marinated grilled steak, pico de gallo, and nacho cheese sauce.

And making its standalone debut is the Creamy Garlic Sauce! Originally created as part of the Steak Garlic Nacho Fries, this sauce became so popular that customers were "hacking" the menu to order it on the side. Now you can get it directly:

• As an à la carte dipping sauce (about $0.60)
• Standard on the Steak Garlic Nacho Fries
• As an optional sauce for the Cheesy Dipping Burritos

Described as "a flavorful creamy garlic sauce with a little kick of flavor from mild jalapeños," it perfectly complements the savory flavors of these menu items. Reviewers note it cuts through the richness with a cooling sensation while providing a subtle garlic punch – think creamy ranch with a garlic twist!

Why Taco Bell Listens to Fans

This comeback isn't just about nostalgia. It's part of Taco Bell's strategy to respond to fan demand. The company has successfully brought back discontinued items through its "Decades" menu, and listens to customer feedback like when fans "hacked" the menu to request the Creamy Garlic Sauce as a standalone item. As Global Chief Food Innovation Officer Liz Matthews noted, "The community showed us how powerful a simple drizzle of Creamy Garlic Sauce could be. What started as a fan hack quickly became a shared passion."

Don't Miss Out!

Whether you're a longtime Quesarito devotee or new to the hype, now's the time to head to your nearest Taco Bell. The Quesarito, Cheesy Dipping Burritos, Steak Garlic Nacho Fries, and Creamy Garlic Sauce are all available while supplies last at participating locations. But act fast – these limited-time offers won't stick around forever!

And for the basketball fans? Taco Bell even made a nod to NBA superstar Nikola Jokić (whose draft coincided with the Quesarito's 2014 debut) by giving away "Give the Quesarito a Chance" T-shirts at a Nuggets game. Even Jokić himself admitted, "That's funny. I'm not gonna do it. Not gonna do it." – though his teammates reportedly enjoyed the freebies!
