    Never fails every time I order from here they don’t give me the food I ordered and they don’t put the ingredients that I ordered. This place needs a higher competent workers that know how to read.

    I go here most nights I’m craving Taco Bell, however somethings changed. The food doesn’t taste fresh anymore. The lettuce has a soapy taste and the tomatoes just taste off. Probably won’t be back for a while.

    I like Taco Bell a decent amount but I don't like it enough to pay $15 for a Discovery Luxe box combo that should cost $10. The prices here are ridiculous.
