The Qdoba South Hill Disaster
Rating: ⭐ (1/5)
ABSOLUTE HEALTH HAZARD — I SHOULD HAVE TURNED AROUND. My visit to this Qdoba in South Hill was a nightmare from start to finish. As I walked in and got in line with everyone else, I looked up and saw a stomach-turning sight: the air vents are positioned towards the wall, hanging directly over the food prep line, and they are caked in a thick, black, furry layer of filth. To make matters worse, the air was actively blowing OUT, blasting all that grime directly down onto the food ingredients as they were being prepared.
Despite the red flags, I ordered a burrito with shredded and ground beef, hot cheesy sauce, and extra cheese. When I reached the cashier to use my $5 off T-Mobile Tuesday coupon, the technical nightmare continued. Their card reader is completely broken; it won't accept a swipe or an insert, forcing you to use tap-to-pay just to complete the transaction.
The most bizarre part? They bagged my food as if I were leaving. When I asked for a tray so I could eat there, the worker went into the back kitchen and returned with a metal prep pan for me to eat off of. Serving a customer on industrial kitchen hardware is beyond unprofessional.
It is a total joke that they have a "Great" health rating sticker from the Tacoma-Pierce County Health Department displayed in the window when the vents over the food clearly haven't been cleaned in months. Even with a $5 off coupon from T-Mobile Tuesday, this was NOT worth the risk. Save your money and your health—avoid this location.
