Taco Bell sold Hot 'n Now to a Connecticut company in 1997. In 1990, the Hot 'n Now chain was acquired. Several locations in the Midwestern United States were converted from Zantigo, a Minneapolis, Minnesota-based Mexican chain which PepsiCo acquired in 1986. In 1978, PepsiCo purchased Taco Bell from Glen Bell.

Original Taco Bells only featured walk-up windows without indoor seating or drive-thru service and former original Taco Bell locations still survive while having been repurposed, frequently as other Mexican restaurants. The first location east of the Mississippi River opened on East Main Street in Springfield, Ohio, in 1968. In 1967, the 100th restaurant opened at 400 South Brookhurst in Anaheim which was later replaced by a new restaurant at 324 South Brookhurst. In 1964, the first franchisee opened, in Torrance, California, at the intersection of West Carson Street and South Western Avenue which still exists but has been repurposed at 1647 West Carson Street. The first restaurant closed in 1986, while the building was saved from demolition November 19, 2015, and was moved 45 miles (72 km) to the Taco Bell Corporate Office at 1 Glen Bell Way in Irvine and is currently stored intact on the corporate parking lot premises and known as "Taco Bell Numero Uno".
The original location was a 400-square-foot (37 m 2) building about the size of a two-car garage, and was built with Mission-style arches that covered a small walk-up window that served the original menu items: Tostadas, burritos, frijoles, chiliburgers, and tacos, all for 19 cents ($2 in 2021 dollars ).
Currently there is a Taco Bell location across the street at 7127 Firestone Blvd, in Downey. Glen Bell opened the first Taco Bell in 1962 at 7112 Firestone Boulevard in Downey, California.
