NEW YORK (CBSDFW.COM/AP) -- Getting your Taco Bell fix may soon get a whole lot easier.
The restaurant chain is starting delivery service on Wednesday in certain markets in a partnership with the startup delivery company DoorDash.
Delivery will be available initially in more than 90 cities and more than 200 restaurants around Los Angeles, San Francisco and Dallas.
"We're testing and learning at the speed of the on-demand economy," stated Tressie Lieberman, VP of Innovation and On Demand at Taco Bell. "We're thrilled to partner with DoorDash and leverage their like-minded commitment to customer service and innovation. This partnership enables us to provide consistent quality service and the feedback we need to elevate the delivery experience and evaluate where Taco Bell delivery goes next.".
Pricing and delivery costs may vary, depending on the location of the restaurant.
Aside from Taco Bell, DoorDash delivers food from restaurants such as California Pizza Kitchen and The Cheesecake Factory for a fee. Its service is available only in certain areas.
The app is available for iOS and Android, and food can also be delivered through the company's website.
Taco Bell, a subsidiary of Yum Brands Inc., said that it plans to bring delivery nationwide, but did not specify a time frame.
