The young man at the window was so kind. I never recieved my door dash order from somewhere else so we went to Taco Bell. I vented to him and he gave us some free cinnamon twist. (Don't fire him). Our food was made fast and it was hot and fresh ❤️

Mobile order made at 4:54pm. Took an hour to correct. Cashier gave my food to the car ahead and had the nerve to think I would take it after I saw it. Was given the wrong food twice. No manger explanation, no apologies. Plus it was a Mobile order. .
