ive never eaten at a taco johns, I basically summed it up to being like taco bell with less options and less customization. The taco meat does taste a little fresher but everything is 1 - 1 taco bell. pricing is about the same. So if you like taco bell made simple, this is your diner.

I will say this location was very clean and they brought the food out to us which was very nice 👍🏼 I wasnt expecting that.

Had to reduce it a "star". Taco Johns at this location is real "hit or miss" in terms of ordering online. Sometimes they wait until the appropriate time to make the order... other times they make it way ahead of time, and the food is cold and soggy. My best recommendation is to either order at the facility... or online only if you can get there in a few minutes.

November 2024

We ordered a crispy taco, a chicken quesadilla potato olés, a drink and because we have the app we were treated to a free dessert. We opted for donut bites. Every item , except the soda, was hot and delicious.
