During 2025, Taco Bell hasn't stopped surprising its customers. New recipes and special collaborations have kept its menu in constant renewal. From birthday cake churros with the Milk Bar seal to unique burritos and menus in collaboration with Tony Hawk, the brand has captured all the attention.
Many thought that after so many launches, the chain had already shown all its cards. However, the tex-mex brand still had a special announcement in store. This latest move promises to ignite the appetite of millions of people across the country.
A favorite returns to the streets
On August 14, Taco Bell confirmed that Cheesy Street Chalupa are returning to its menu. This dish is one of the most celebrated by major fans, who rate it as the best they've tried at the chain since the late 1990s. This time, they'll be available only for a limited time and at all locations in the United States.
The recipe is inspired by the flavors of street vendors and offers an unmistakable combination. It includes fresh onion, cilantro, and a choice between grilled chicken or marinated steak. Everything is accompanied by Jalapeño Ranch spicy sauce, a touch that enhances the final flavor.
What makes the difference is the soft and crispy tortilla filled with mozzarella and pepper jack. Both cheeses are fried along with the tortilla, achieving a unique texture and a flavor that recalls the popular Quesalupa launched in 2016.
Price, availability, and options
Customers who don't want to wait can already order their chalupas wrapped in aluminum foil. The approximate price is $5.49 for a package with two units. In addition, they're included in the Luxe Craving Box, a more complete option for those who want a varied meal.
This box combines two Cheesy Street Chalupa with a cheese bean and rice burrito, nacho cheese chips, and a medium-sized drink. All of this is offered for around $9, making it an attractive proposal for those looking to satisfy their appetite.
Taco Bell reminds that its availability will be limited. The most loyal followers know this isn't an opportunity to miss. Anyone who wants to enjoy this combination of cheese, meat, and spices should do so before it disappears from the menu again.
