The cheapest regular items are on the ValuEST menu: the Cheesy Beef & Potato Taco at $2.00 and the Nacho Crunch Beef Burrito at $2.19. On Taco Tuesday, a crispy taco is just $1.29.
A single combo (burrito or two tacos with Potato Olés and a drink) typically runs $9.99-$13.63 depending on the combo and location.
The standout value is the Six-Pack And A Pound: six tacos at $15.49, about $2.58 per taco — cheaper than buying six individually. The $5 Meal Steal (bean burrito, crispy taco, small Olés, small drink) is the cheapest full meal.
Potato Olés are fried potato bites coated in Taco John's signature seasoning. Small is 460 calories, medium 650, and large 840 — they're the chain's signature side.
Yes — the Bean Burrito ($2.29) and Potato Olés are vegetarian, and the Six-Pack deals work well for feeding a group or a family.
