    Food was mediocre, not as good anymore. They also didn’t give me the chalupa I ordered (the most expensive item I bought) and when I called to see if there was anything they could do they just told me no.

    I typical don’t leave reviews, but genuinely one of the worst experiences I’ve had here. They mixed up my order with the car behind us. We go back around and get the correct order. I found out the person behind us was someone we knew, so we traded the orders. They still proceeded to completely mess up my original order. I’ve worked fast food before, but how do you mess up that badly?

    The drive thru takes over 30 ( THIRTY ) minutes every time I visit now, even with only one car in line. The food is not good anymore, the shell of my chalupa tasted like cardboard and was cold. They barely put any toppings at all on my entire meal. A combo meal should be filling. Ridiculous.

    My orders are often incorrect and I find myself waiting typically 30+ mins for food with no updates. The staff typically won’t even acknowledge your existence unless you talk to them!
