My friend and I walked in and waited 8 minutes till someone said we'll be with you in a minute, they had seen us but we were ignored. We're both older and have dietary issues, so we didn't want to use the in-store menu to order. Once we ordered, the food came pretty quickly. As far as the soda fountain goes, the mango iced tea and the lemonade were both carbonated, that never happened at any other taco bell ( bricktown,Jackson or wall/Manasquan. Needless to say, we'll never stop at that taco bell again.

D O N O T S U B J E C T Y O U R S E L F T O T H I S I M M E A S U R A B L E A M O U N T O F I N C O M P E T E N C E!

D O N O T E V E R E A T H E R E! ! ! D O N O T P U N I S H Y O U R S E L F! ! ! I have worked in many kitchens as a Kitchen Manager. I & I alone have been responsible for every single morsel of food that left each & every one of those kitchens. Regardless of who may have prepared that food prior to it leaving those kitchens. It is extremely unfortunate, that when it comes to fast food. The fact of the matter is that I ONLY! eat from Taco Bell regarding fast food. Unfortunately, the Taco Bell franchise closest to where I live is located 1.3 miles away in the Walmart parking lot next to the McDonald's across from BJ's on Rte. 37 West in TomsRiver New Jersey. I must begin by informing each & every one of you who happen to come across this review, that. This is the truth the whole truth & nothing but the truth. I hope this is received by everyone who may ever have plans on visiting this Taco Bell to I AM NOT! ONE TO EXAGGERATE! Now, if I were to be exaggerating, why would I have taken the time & effort to write this review as I have? I WOULDN'T! I wouldn't have wasted my time. I swear on everything that I have ever loved, love, & will love that throughout my experience in dealing with this Taco Bell location. Honestly, it should absolutely be the exact opposite, but sadly, the fact of the matter is that 90%. No, I can't even say 90%, I would have to say, 93% of the time that I have visited this Taco Bell location my orders have been completely & utterly incorrect to state it nicely. The amount of money I have lost on having to return to this Taco Bell on gasoline alone is in the 100's of dollars. The wear & tear & extra milage added on to my vehicle has been also in the 10's if not, in the 100's of miles. I sit at times & ponder to myself, why & how, can this be earthly possible? Is it really that difficult to competently prepare a Taco? A Taco? Let me ask or say it again, "A TACO?" WHY HAS THIS FANCHISE NOT FIRED THESE INCOMPETENT MANAGERS? Actually, I can't even consider or refer to these unqualified individuals as managers. A manager takes responsibility for not only their actions, but the actions of every single individual under their authority. I do know her name, but I will choose not to reveal her name. A certain grossly & ignorantly incompetent authority figure, AKA: "manager" who works at this location who takes absolutely no responsibility nor accountability at all whatsoever for this Taco Bell location. Well, let's just say, she needs to be the first & foremost "CHANGE" in order for this Taco Bell location to return to a state of existence resembling competency. Then again, I've even come to the conclusion that maybe this locations goal may be to see just how many people they can continuously "MESS" with & get away with. Now, think about it. If my confusion on how it can honestly really be consistently that bad & unfortunately, it is consistently that BAD! for my thoughts to be taking it there. That shows you just how MESSED UP! this Taco Bell truly is. GOOD LUCK TO ANY & ALL WHO WINDS UP BEING SUBJECTED TO THIS INCOMPETENCE.

Had to wait 10 minutes for a person to co.e to the counter. There were no customers in the store at that time.
We ordered an in-house meal and sat down. Soon we realized that the temperature was set.very low. We were so uncomfortable that we finished our meal in our car. It seems the temp is always set too low in this store. NOT GOOD!

Thank you Taco Bell team! My family and I did a delivery order worth $80 and there were A LOT of items with modifications in that order. We were all nervous that it wouldn’t arrive correctly. Well, to our delight, it did. Every single thing was correct. And delicious. Thanks for making our day. Keep it up!
I have eaten at this Taco Bell twice now. The first time, the food was served quickly and was hot and fresh, thought the lobby was filthy.
Today, I came in before 7pm. The lobby was cleaner, but the food was horrible (I assume the crew tonight just didn’t care, evidenced by the young blonde girl who came out to flirt with two white high schoolboys that sounded like they were begging her for free food and getting in the way).
The nacho fries came out cold (I ate one before driving home) and I didn’t realize they’d cut my veggie Mexican pizza (no cheese) - which I know from other Taco Bell employees isn’t supposed to be done due to cross contamination risks (I’ve never received one cut before today and had asked a former employee why they’re never cut when I order). The person I was with ordered a Mexican pizza with cheese, mine was without because I have an allergy. I got horribly sick because they weren’t careful enough to not cut the pizza.
Additionally, the lobby both times has been dirty, but I can usually overlook that for good food that doesn’t make me sick because of the employees cutting a Mexican pizza I specifically made vegan because I cannot have cheese without having an allergic reaction. It’s going to take a while for me to feel comfortable coming back after the reaction I had tonight.
