Del Mar's Baja Mexican Opens

(Thursday, August 21, 2008) - Del Mar's Baja Mexican opened Monday, July 7, in Campbell Station Center.

Del Mar's, formerly Taco Del Mar's, specializes in made-to-order burritos, and is famous for its Mondo Burrito, weighing more than a pound.

"We specialize in mission-style burritos, and we also have other Mexican choices such as enchiladas, taco salads, tacos, dinner platters and quesadillas," said Joddi Thomley, Del Mar's master developer.

"We're more of a fast-casual [restaurant] than a fast food," Thomley said.

"This is a concept out of Seattle; they mastered it after the baja peninsula area's fish tacos … and there was really nothing like it here," said Margaret Dean, a franchisee investor.

"That's why here: we thought it could make a new or fill a new niche," she added, explaining why she and husband, Dean, and partner, Thomas Sweeden, chose to open Del Mar's in Farragut.
