Not sure if this is the worst taco johns or if they all absolutely suck. The amount of time my order has been wrong here is more times than it's been right.

Luv me some tacos! This restaurant was clean and got my food pretty darn fast. Even tho they messed up my taco salad they promptly made me a new one that was delicious. The meat was a bit spicier than I like tho

Place is a joke, soggy oles and terrible tacos. If you want some cheese and lettuce tacos with a tiny bit of soup meat, this is your place. This has been a recurring issue. Hardly any Meat and packed with lettuce. Taco shells soggy and went from the drive thru to “eat” in back of the lot to basically throw it all away.

Food is variable. Some items are good; some are not. It probably varies based on who makes it. Good value, okay food. Don’t go there often but will try them again.

I came here at 1:20 pm on June 22, 2024 went through the drive through, ordered two bean burritos with nothing on them except beans, and absolutely no cheese and I quote saying “can you make sure there is no cheese at all, it’ll kill me” I don’t say that lightly because taco John’s has screwed it up before at this location where they put a ton of cheese on my burrito. So when I opened up my burrito to find the outside of the burrito with cheese on it I wasn’t very happy. I love eating here but, running the risk of losing my life because the people running the place don’t understand what no cheese means is a hard risk to take. The woman taking my order even reassured me that it would be just beans. I have anaphylactic shock to all dairy products and I’m not trying to die. They put to remove cheese on the order but clearly not. I know it’s not much cheese on it, but even the slightest would have a lasting impact on my life.
Dietary restrictions: I am very allergic to dairy where I will go into anaphylactic shock within minutes if I consume dairy

Having lived in Iowa for over two decades, I finally ventured into Taco John's in Coralville, IA, and I must say, it was a delightful experience that exceeded my expectations in every way. From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was welcoming and vibrant, reflecting a blend of modern comfort and traditional Mexican charm.
The first thing that struck me was, with the exception of the restrooms, the cleanliness and modern design of the restaurant.
The staff at Taco John's Coralville were incredibly friendly and attentive. From the cashier to the kitchen staff, everyone seemed genuinely happy to be there and eager to make my visit enjoyable. My order was taken promptly, and the food was served hot and fresh in a remarkably short time.
Now, onto the most important part – the food. Taco John's offers a unique twist on traditional Mexican fare, and I was not disappointed. I decided to try their signature Potato Olés as an appetizer, and they were absolutely delicious – perfectly crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, seasoned with just the right amount of spices.
For the main course, I went with a mix of tacos and burritos. The tacos were filled with fresh ingredients, and each bite was bursting with flavor. The meat was seasoned to perfection, and the toppings were crisp and fresh. The burrito was equally impressive – generously filled and wrapped in a soft, warm tortilla.
One thing that stood out to me was the variety on the menu. Whether you're in the mood for a classic taco, a hearty burrito, or something a bit different like the Taco Bravo or the Quesadilla, there's something for everyone.
The prices at Taco John's are very reasonable, especially considering the quality and portion sizes of the food.
Taco John's left a fantastic impression on me. It's clear that they care about both the quality of their food and the satisfaction of their customers.
If you're in the Coralville area and craving some tasty Mexican-inspired cuisine, this is the place to go.

I was so happy when they reopened in Coralville! This location is always a treat. The drive thru is speedy and the employee at the window is always cheerful. My order has always been right, but the one time it wasn't, they caught it and ran after me when I pulled away to give me the item they forgot! How's that for service?The food is always fresh tasting and exactly what I am expecting.
Not sure if this is the worst taco johns or if they all absolutely suck. The amount of time my order has been wrong here is more times than it's been right.
