Its a taco bell. So even though they get my order wrong sometimes, since I order through the app, I always get an appropriate accommodation for any mistakes. Which about half the time there is mistakes. The only thing I really care about that I feel bad reporting to the app is those sauce cups - sometimes theyre barely filled and ive had to go in and show it to them and they give me more. But anyways the food is delicious and I come here all the time for the value and taste. Sometime its bangin and sometimes its a total miss with food and/or service. Its taco bell.

The staff here recently is trash. Will not be coming back to this location. There’s a guy that works at this location with a beard and tats that talks to customers like he’s out in the streets and running a gang. Awful service!!!!

I have witnessed multiple workers smoking on the job which is quite disgusting. Inside of this specific Taco Bell it smell like rotten food and there is a lot of food left on the floor. Today I went again, and there were 3 workers taking turns smoking marijuana. This is not the first time I have seen this. Outside of the Taco Bell there are a bunch a used cigarettes on the ground. I have also noticed the workers have often been forgetting drinks and food items. Most of the time the food isn’t even made properly. I highly advice not ordering from this Taco Bell.

Very disappointed. I got to the Taco Bell around 10pm. I went through the drive thru and was told they’re only doing mobile orders. Which I don’t understand because they’re opened until 1am. I then put in a mobile order and try to go into the store to pick it up and the doors were locked. I get closing the dining area early but there is no signs stating that the dining area is closed at a certain time. So I went back through the drive thru and waited for my order. A guy came to the window and said they didn’t have either of the bean options for the cheese quesadillas I order w/ beans and asked if chicken was fine. I’m a vegetarian. Told them if they didn’t have beans I’d take cheese but would like a refund for the beans because they’re an up-charge. He disappears and then comes back and say they miraculously have both beans. Waited another 10 minutes and finally got my order. Got home, the cheese wasn’t even melted or hot and there’s no jalapeño chipotle sauce that usually comes on the quesadilla which is the reason I like this franchises quesadillas. I wasn’t even told about it being out. Not sure who’s managing this store but something definitely needs to be changed.
