Horrible wait, and after waiting forever you get met with a nasty attitude and cold ill prepared food. Stay away from this location.

Waited 10 minutes and watched multiple cars reverse out of line because no one was taking orders. Mind you, there were people eating inside. Sucks.

This is the absolute worst Taco Bell I have ever been to by far. I first went to this location about 3 months ago. Waited in the drive thru for almost 20 minutes. The girl was extremely rude at the ordering box and at the window. After paying they asked I pull around to the main door and they'd bring the food out. I waited another 10-15 minutes. The worst part about this was there was only 1 car infront of me and the restaurant itself was empty.
Fast forwarding to tonight
I was hesitant to go back to this place but I wanted something quick and easy.
Exactly the same experience minus the girl with the attitude.
Sat at the ordering box for almost 10 minutes before anyone said anything.
Ordered, paid and again I was asked to pull around. Keep in mind, I sat at that box with no one infront of me to hold them up.
This place is an absolute disaster. Poor efficiency, poor service and obviously poor management.
Do not go to this location.

If I could give it a 0 stars I would. I don’t know how it could be worse to mess up a simple order. Got a number 12 combo that’s a chicken burrito, taco, and chips with cheese, charged me the amount for it and proceeded to give me a bag with 1 plain taco. Like my taco isn’t even chicken! Are you kidding me????? Shut it down or hire people with actual working brains.
Prior to getting my food, I had to wait about 20 minutes in line for God knows. There were about 3 cars ahead of me so I can’t imagine it was extremely busy to a point where they were messing up orders.
