Taco Bell Enchirito 2026: Is It Still Available? Dates, Price & Calories
Quick Answer
No, the Taco Bell Enchirito is not available right now. It came back for a limited run from June 18 to July 22, 2026 at $3.99, and it was not on Taco Bell's menu when we checked tacobell.com on October 1, 2026. The closest thing you can order today is the Burrito Supreme, which has the same seasoned beef, refried beans, red sauce, onions and cheddar.
What is the Taco Bell Enchirito?
It is a cross between an enchilada and a burrito: a flour tortilla filled with seasoned beef, refried beans and diced onions, then covered in red sauce and melted cheddar. Because the sauce goes on the outside, it is served in a tray and eaten with a fork, which is what made it different from almost everything else Taco Bell sells.
The original came with three black olive slices on top. Taco Bell dropped the olives when it brought the Enchirito back in 1999, and the 2026 version did not have them either. That is still the most common complaint from longtime fans.
When was the Enchirito last available?
The most recent run was June 18 to July 22, 2026, at $3.99 at participating locations. It was not available everywhere. InspireMore reported customers in Louisville who could not order it because their store was testing other items, and The Daily Dish said it was ordered through the Taco Bell app or website.
Taco Bell has not announced another return. Every comeback since 2022 has been short, so if it does come back, expect a window of weeks, not months.

How many calories are in an Enchirito?
Published numbers for the 2026 version do not agree, so here is what each source says rather than one made-up figure:
| Source | Calories | Other numbers listed |
|---|---|---|
| Nom (June 2026) | 350 | 16g fat, 33g carbs, 18g protein, 7g fiber, 1,359mg sodium |
| The Daily Dish (June 2026) | 370 | 19g protein, 7g fiber, about 1,200mg sodium |
Either way, it lands around 350 to 370 calories with roughly 18 to 19g of protein, and sodium is the number to watch at over half the 2,300mg daily limit. Taco Bell removes nutrition data when an item leaves the menu, so if it returns, check the Taco Bell nutrition calculator for the official figure.
What can you order instead of the Enchirito?
The closest item on the menu right now is the Burrito Supreme ($5.69, 390 calories on Taco Bell's site, October 1, 2026). Taco Bell lists it with seasoned beef, refried beans, diced onions, red sauce and shredded cheddar, the same core as the Enchirito, plus tomatoes, lettuce and reduced-fat sour cream. The difference is that the sauce and cheese are inside, not poured on top.
| Enchirito (2026 run) | Burrito Supreme (now) | |
|---|---|---|
| Status | Not available | On the menu |
| Price | $3.99 | $5.69 |
| Calories | 350 to 370 | 390 |
| Beef and refried beans | Yes | Yes |
| Red sauce and cheddar | On top | Inside |
| Extras | Diced onions | Onions, tomatoes, lettuce, sour cream |
If you want it closer to the real thing, order a Bean Burrito ($1.99), add seasoned beef and ask for red sauce and cheese on top. Not every store will put sauce on the outside, so treat this as a request, not a guaranteed menu option.
