Waffle House tests unexpected new menu items as customers deliver mixed verdict
Waffle House is stepping outside its traditional breakfast offerings and testing seven taco varieties — but they're only available at select locations, for now.
"We are always looking to test new menu items, and tacos are delicious," a Waffle House spokesperson told Fox News Digital.
The restaurant chain is testing the tacos for a limited time, while supplies last, at about 45 locations in the Atlanta metropolitan area, close to the Waffle House corporate offices.

The lunch and dinner tacos include a cheesesteak melt, chicken melt or patty melt.
All taco options are available at any time of day.
"It has only been a week, but the early feedback has been positive," Waffle House's spokesperson said.
Social media reaction is mixed.
"I bet they're fire too," an Instagram user commented on a post announcing the tacos' debut.
"We're about to witness the downfall of Waffle House with this foolishness," someone else wrote.
"Tacos are good any day," another user commented.
"That's an absolute no," posted another Instagram user.
"Looks like they got the message that different times call for different measures and adapt to changes! SURVIVAL," a supporter wrote.
