Picked up an online order inside. Food was great. However, no napkins or utensils were provided. Unless I was supposed to get them myself. Friendly staff!

Love the Chicken Cantina Bowl - JUST YUM !
Add some crunch with Tortilla chips, or enjoyed as is > EXCELLENT MEAL.
JESSICA W. was WONDERFUL to me.. I flew all day, while SICKER than earlier. She listened - THAT MATTERS at Taco Bell, Hwy 98 (Destin), AND esp in LIFE ! I requested NO ice, to keep the Mt. Dew for later, & was THRILLED to see SHE LISTENED to me. IT'S THE SMALL THINGS IN LIFE THAT MATTER MOST - moreso when you're tired & sick. đ·

Probably the worst Taco Bell I've ever been to. Made a mistake on the kiosk, accidentally pressed two icees, they hadn't even made them but they wouldn't refund me. The overall atmosphere inside is quite dreary, and the customer service is completely lacking. I'd recommend to find another spot. I think Taco Bell corporate has gone too far with their attempts to automate everything.

We ordered it for a lil late night sweet treat and we got 2 cinnamon twists which they brought but my friend got another cinnamon thing and they forgot it! Then she got a taco and they messed it up. The final straw was we ordered two large Baja blasts bc weâre addicted AND THEY BROUGHT A PEE BAJA BLAST. oml i cannot do this bro

Costumer service is bad for me at night. I pull up at the intercom and I ordered a $5 deluxe box asked to modify the beefy burrito add rice AI said, âIâm sorry, but I donât understand. Is that everything for you?â So I go up to the window and told them to add rice and the guy at the window got assertive with me saying, âok next time if youâre going to add something, you need to say that through the intercomâ. I got angry and told them that AI doesnât know how to change or modify anything and he continued arguing with me about rice. Maybe REPLACE AI with actual costumer service so you wouldnât waste your time making an incorrect burrito that I didnât ask for
