The only problem I had here was I ordered ground beef enchiladas and the meet was so salty I could not eat it but as soon as we let the waiter know he went and informed the cook and they did not charge us for the enchiladas and they never got an attitude or mad because of the feedback. I would definitely return try something else. This is a favorite or my Mom and daughter.“

“This a pretty solid taco bell. But CONSISTENTLY every time I order a stacker with steak, and rice around 5pm, I get about 1+ inch of empty tortilla on top of the item. Like come on. I'm already paying $0.90 cents for steak. And another $0.90 cents for the rice and sauce I but I get way less food than if I were to order beef instead. A manager must work around this time who's a real stickler on portions. But every other item is great and every time I go the workers are wonderful. The food is really good. That's my only complaint is all the empty tortilla I gotta bite through to get a bite with some food. Hope this can change in the future“

“And don't stop at Taco John's very often. But Saturday night around 11:00 there wasn't many options so I pulled in and they had their two fiesta tacos for $5 and I have to say they were actually quite good nice chunks of chicken I was actually quite impressed. I believe you get a choice between steak or chicken for their tacos. Definitely going to have to stop in again.“
