- STSherri TF6 days ago3.0It's a very hands off place, you order at the kiosk and that's it ... there is no customer service they throw a bag at you onto the counter. For take out you have a separate door and window to wait at outside, you don't even enter the restaurant. Food quality and quantity is mediocre at best. The banging rock music is so loud the people working in the kitchen can't hear you if you are at the counter and needing assistance.
- WCWalter CoccoJan 2, 20261.0Got a nacho Bell grande with refried beans that were refried for 12 days. I could patch a hole with them no ground beef old food don’t go there for anything. I didn’t believe the ratings until today. Close this place down the taco supreme with the order had nothing on it but a small amount of sour cream and old hard nuggets of ground beef or maybe refried beans. No cheese. No tomatoes or anything else that’s supposed to be on it. Obviously management doesn’t work at this location. If they did they would respond to complaints and train staff better.

- MVMichael VideosDec 30, 20251.0Small black lady in a blonde wig working in the back making food turned away 5 door dash drivers because she said she was frustrated and didnt want to make our food. But she was fine with making a customer's food, there were other employees working who were fearful of her. She apologized for "sounding mean" but it went beyond that. Next time she'll be more violent with someone who she believes to be weaker than her. Fire her now.
- DGdavid goodrichDec 24, 20251.0I've never had a good experience at this Taco Bell ever since they moved it. The old location wasn't the best but I had more positive experiences at that one than negative. We don't even go to this location anymore because it is consistently terrible. Wrong food or missing food, long waits, rude staff. Avoid this one at all cost.
