A Powegian in the mood for good food tweeted to Arby's, hinting they should create a location in Poway for the fast food chain.

In the mood for good food? Tweet about it.

After the Del Taco on Poway Road closed, a Powegian reached out to Arby's via Twitter Thursday, hinting the fast food chain should establish a location in Poway.

Jamie Melim called the former Del Taco location, which sits at 12314 Poway Rd., the "perfect spot" for Arby's, claiming Poway was in need of one.

Arby's responded to Melim's tweet, saying: "Hopefully we will be in your city soon!"

The Del Taco that formerly filled the space on Poway Road shut down after more than 30 years due to lease and rent issues, according to a spokeswoman. 

According to her Twitter profile, Melim is a "proud mom of two teenage sons, San Diego Realtor living in Poway, and SDSU alumni!"

Do you think the former Del Taco space should be filled by Arby's? What fast food restaurant would you like to see come to Poway? Tell us in the comments!
