I had reservation about going here from the reviews and after going realize why I NEVER make my mind up from OTHER PEOPLES EXPERIENCES. We walked in and the cooks were busy so one of them immediately said he would be right with us. NO PROBLEM. The young lady who served us was pleasant and efficient. Still NO PROBLEM. Our food was made quickly and brought out to us by a cook (if not working manager...if not, should be) He showed us everything we ordered and asked if we needed anything else. I jokingly said "yeah a piece of that great smelling chicken" he said "how about some fresh baked cookies? Your son has on his Santa hat!" SO....after we get home after a 10 minute drive I open up our food and see fully stuffed fresh crispy shell tacos. Moral of the story? Make your own judgement and try this again. Also for people with no common sense in their skull, if you go to MOST RESTAURANTS OF ANY KIND 8 minutes before they close on a Tuesday or during a lunch or dinner rush, you get whay you get. It's not them...it's you. (P.S. We went 3 p.m. on a Monday when they are getting ready for dinner....see how that works ) please see photo of our beautiful stuffed tacos

This location is notorious for messing up orders. This time was no exception; however, they went way above and beyond to make it right and we actually left with an extra taco. I really appreciate it the cashier, as he was kind about the error and brought the food to us when it was ready.

It was quiet, I believe we were the only customers in the restaurant at that time. The food was good the only thing I wish they would change is some of their items on the menu the larger print

Taco bells are pretty much the same wherever you go, with maybe a slight variance in the staff. The staff at this one were very helpful and attention. We really liked how they brought back the Mexican pizza - both my wife and I not one, plus a few tacos. As long as this is the kind of fair you want, this is a great place to go to. To be honest, I've yet to have a bad meal at Taco bell. Worth the trip, one thumb up

It has always been up and down with visits to this local taco bell. Tonight my husband and I went for a quick meal and was pleasantly suprised with excellent service. From the man taking our order to the food to the lady cleaning tables. It was refreshing to see it run as it should be. Hoping it will be consistently like this. Thank you to the staff on duty this September eve.
