    Taco Bell is very inconsistent, and the quality really depends on the branch. Some locations serve fresh food, while others have cold tacos, soggy shells, or poorly prepared items. The taste changes from place to place, and service can be slow or careless. That lack of consistency makes it hard to trust the experience.

    Ordered to go from this location and was absolutely shocked to find a ROACH CRAWLING OUT OF THE BAG AFTER I SET IT DOWN ON MY KITCHEN TABLE. I have never been so disgusted in my life. I spent $32 dollars and had to throw it all away because there was an obviously disgusting roach crawling all over my food. Will never come back to this location. Absolutely disgusting and I of course understand it’s NYC and roaches are everywhere but to have it in the bag of my food and wasting money was dos disappointing to say the least. Everyone should beware.

    Visited during Santa con. Portion sizes are small, but that's a corporate thing. Ordered fries that weren't in my order. Asked for my fries to be told they were in the wrap. Advises they couldn't possibly be in the wrap because I'd have found them. I was allowed to get my original order of fries. Except the person serving put some fries in a bag and shouted for someone else, they didn't turn up so he eventually gave them to me.
