NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

MARCH 31, 2009

UNAUDITED

NOTE 1 — BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements and should therefore be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto contained in the annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008 for Del Taco Restaurant Properties I (the Partnership or the Company). In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the Partnership’s financial position at March 31, 2009, the results of operations and cash flows for the three month periods ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 have been included. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2009 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2009. Amounts related to the disclosure of December 31, 2008 balances within these condensed financial statements were derived from the 2008 audited financial statements.

NOTE 2 — NET INCOME PER LIMITED PARTNERSHIP UNIT

Net income per limited partnership unit is based on net income attributable to the limited partners (after 1% allocation to the general partner) using the weighted average number of units outstanding during the periods presented, which amounted to 8,751 in 2009 and 2008.

Pursuant to the partnership agreement, annual partnership net income is allocated one percent to Del Taco LLC, formerly known as Del Taco, Inc., (Del Taco or the General Partner) and 99 percent to the limited partners. A partnership net loss in any year will be allocated 24 percent to the General Partner and 76 percent to the limited partners until the losses so allocated equal income previously allocated. Any additional losses will be allocated one percent to the General Partner and 99 percent to the limited partners. Partnership gains from any sale or refinancing will be allocated one percent to the General Partner and 99 percent to the limited partners until allocated gains and profits equal losses. Additional gains will be allocated 24 percent to the General Partner and 76 percent to the limited partners.

NOTE 3 — LEASING ACTIVITIES

The Partnership leases certain properties for operation of restaurants to Del Taco on a triple net basis. The leases are for terms of 35 years commencing with the completion of the restaurant facility located on each property and require monthly rentals equal to 12 percent of the gross sales of the restaurants. The leases expire in the years 2019 to 2020. There is no minimum rental payment required under any of the leases.

UNAUDITED

NOTE 3 — LEASING ACTIVITIES — continued

For the three months ended March 31, 2009, the five restaurants operated by Del Taco, for which the Partnership is the lessor, had combined, unaudited sales of $1,222,823 and unaudited net losses of $50,954 as compared to unaudited sales of $1,290,326 and unaudited net losses of $18,172 respectively, for the corresponding period in 2008. Net income or loss of each restaurant includes charges for general and administrative expenses incurred in connection with supervision of restaurant operations and interest expense and the increase in net loss from the corresponding period of the prior year primarily relates to a reduction in restaurant revenues. For the three months ended March 31, 2009, the one restaurant operated by a Del Taco franchisee, for which the Partnership is the lessor, had unaudited sales of $235,312 as compared to $242,213 during the same period in 2008.

NOTE 4 — TRANSACTIONS WITH DEL TACO

The receivable from Del Taco consists primarily of rent accrued for the month of March 2009. The March rent receivable was collected in April 2009.

Del Taco serves in the capacity of general partner in other partnerships which are engaged in the business of operating restaurants, and three other partnerships which were formed for the purpose of acquiring real property in California for construction of Mexican-American restaurants for lease under long-term agreements to Del Taco for operation under the Del Taco trade name.

In addition, see Note 5 with respect to certain distributions to the General Partner.

NOTE 5 — DISTRIBUTIONS

On April 28, 2009, a distribution to the limited partners of $157,096, or approximately $17.95 per limited partnership unit, was approved. Such distribution was paid on April 30, 2009. The General Partner also received a distribution of $1,587 with respect to its 1% partnership interest.

Total cash distributions declared and paid in January 2009 were $171,483.

NOTE 6 — PAYABLE TO LIMITED PARTNERS

Payable to limited partners represents a reclassification from cash for distribution checks made to limited partners that have remained outstanding for 6 months or longer.

NOTE 7 — CONCENTRATION OF RISK

The six restaurants leased to Del Taco make up all of the income producing assets of the Partnership and contributed all of the Partnership’s rental revenues during the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008. Therefore, the business of the Partnership is entirely dependent on the success of the Del Taco trade name restaurants that lease the properties.

The Partnership maintains substantially all of its cash and cash equivalents at one major commercial bank. The Federal Depository Insurance Commission’s limits were $250,000 and $100,000 at March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. At March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, the Partnership had approximately $204,000 and $220,000, respectively, on deposit at one financial institution.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Del Taco Restaurant Properties I (the Partnership or the Company) offered limited partnership units for sale between March 1983 and March 1984. $4.375 million was raised through the sale of limited partnership units and used to acquire sites and build six restaurants and also to pay commissions to brokers and to reimburse Del Taco LLC (the General Partner or Del Taco) for offering costs incurred.

The six restaurants leased to Del Taco make up all of the income producing assets of the Partnership. Therefore, the business of the Partnership is entirely dependent on the success of the Del Taco trade name and the restaurants that lease the properties. The success of the restaurants is dependent on a large variety of factors, including, but not limited to, competition, consumer demand and preference for fast food, in general, and for Mexican-American food in particular.

Results of Operations

The Partnership owns six properties that are under long-term lease to Del Taco for restaurant operations (Del Taco, in turn, has subleased one of the restaurants to a Del Taco franchisee).

The following table sets forth rental revenue earned by restaurant (unaudited):

	Three Months Ended
	March 31,
	2009		2008
Riverside Avenue, Rialto, CA	$	27,222	$	27,805
Elden Avenue, Moreno Valley, CA		23,088		24,324
Foothill Boulevard, La Verne, CA		40,880		44,305
Baseline & Archibald, Rancho Cucamonga, CA		28,237		29,066
Elkhorn Boulevard, Sacramento, CA		23,404		21,683
Haven Avenue, Rancho Cucamonga, CA		32,145		36,722
Total	$	174,976	$	183,905

The Partnership receives rental revenues equal to 12 percent of gross sales from the restaurants. The Partnership earned rental revenue of $174,976 during the three month period ended March 31, 2009, which represents a decrease of $8,929 from 2008. The changes in rental revenues between 2008 and 2009 are directly attributable to decreases in sales levels at the restaurants under lease due to local competitive and industry factors.

The increase in accounts payable from December 31, 2008 is a seasonal increase due to the timing of payment for certain annual accounting, audit and tax services.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - continued

The following table breaks down general and administrative expenses by type of expense:

	Percentage of Total
	General & Administrative Expense
	Three Months Ended
	March 31,
	2009			2008
Accounting fees		80.93	%		80.60	%
Distribution of information to limited partners		19.07			19.40
		100.00	%		100.00	%

General and administrative costs decreased from 2008 to 2009 primarily due to decreased audit fees, tax preparation fees, and costs for printing and the distribution of information to limited partners.

Net income decreased by $5,767 from 2008 to 2009 due to decreases in rental revenues of $8,929 and interest and other income of $978, partially offset by the decrease in general and administrative expenses of $4,140.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations, as well as disclosures included elsewhere in this report on Form 10-Q are based upon the Partnership’s financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. The Partnership believes the critical accounting policies that most impact the financial statements are described below. A summary of the significant accounting policies of the Partnership can be found in Note 1 to the Financial Statements which is included in the Partnership’s December 31, 2008 Form 10-K.

Revenue Recognition: Rental revenue is recognized based on 12 percent of gross sales of the restaurants for the corresponding period, and is earned at the point of sale.

Property and Equipment: Property and equipment is stated at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives which are 20 years for land improvements, 35 years for buildings and improvements, and 10 years for machinery and equipment.

The Partnership accounts for property and equipment in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long Lived Assets.” SFAS 144 requires that long-lived assets be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the asset may not be recoverable. In evaluating long-lived assets held for use, an impairment loss is recognized if the sum of the expected future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) is less than the carrying value of the asset.

-10-

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — continued

Once a determination has been made that an impairment loss should be recognized for long-lived assets, various assumptions and estimates are used to determine fair value including, among others, estimated costs of construction and development, recent sales of comparable properties and the opinions of fair value prepared by independent real estate appraisers. Long-lived assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

None.

Item 4T. Controls and Procedures

(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures:

As of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Treasurer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Treasurer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting them to material information relating to the Company required to be included in the Company’s periodic Securities and Exchange Commission filings.

(b) Changes in internal controls:

There were no significant changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during our most recent fiscal quarter that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

(c) Asset-Backed issuers:

Not applicable.
