Food is OK. Got a student discount. Got a deal on a buy $25 get a $5 bonus. So why the one star review...
1. Didn't shovel the sidewalk.
2. No ice in the soda machine.
3. No napkins in the dispenser.
4. Condiments/ taco sauce almost empty.
5. Floor was DIRTY, mud everywhere!
6. Bathroom needed attention.
Bottom line, food might be good... but you need to pay attention to almost everything else!

I pulled up to the drive though and two employees with their head sets still on ran into the building from a car and it smelled very distinctly of weed outside. Once I received my food all of it was lukewarm and part of my burrito was actually cold. Didn’t finish it because I didn’t want to get sick. This is unacceptable.

This particular location is either fantastic or absolute garbage, and ne’er the twain shall meet. I know not the cause, but it is defined by chance, whim, or impulse. As with Forrest Gump’s insistence, so is the case with Brookings Taco John’s; “you never know what you’re gonna get.”
This restaurant was filthy. Only half of the soda fountains had anything on them. No napkins were available. Both paper towel and toilet paper dispensers were empty and broken. I have never seen a restaurant this dirty and greasy. Floors, tables and chairs were disgusting. Outside steps were even greasy and slippery. I am sure if this place was inspected it would be shut down immediately.

The best, cleanest TJ’s in the country . Deserves nothing less than 5 stars. Just wish they still had apple grandes.
we came with money to buy our food and they didn’t serve us

Yum! I had to stop and eat since all of the Taco John’s locations closed in Fargo, ND. The potatoe oles are so yummy.

We got 2 taco pizzas, they were super good but they forgot the chips! Got one at another place and found out chips were supposed to be on there, way better with the chips! These are really good pizzas ??
Dietary restrictions: Could have a couple more healthy options

The food is great and normally the people serving are super nice but today we had a girl and she was rude then the guy who gave us our food was really rude didn't say anything at all but his body language was rude. We go there a lot and normally get a really nice guy but today sucked.

I’m glad they’ve had enough staff now to be open inside on Sundays, it was a big deterrent during peak COVID to know only the packed drive thru was available. (I’ve not seen it that busy myself since) Speed I think is good, with just recently a quiet day yielding a Super Taco combo within 3 minutes.The interior is functional, never seen it packed full, and sometimes a bit unkempt. (but if I’m going to choose between minding an occasional stray lettuce or the mentioned drive thru, I’ll take care of myself) (their drive thru isn’t bad though, I just don’t want to eat in my car)Food quality is I guess what you’d get from other Taco John’s, being average Mexican-USA’n food. (but those potato oles can disappear like popcorn, very enjoyable) I don’t recommend keeping their food very long to eat later though, because besides the potato oles their deliciousness fades fast.Overall, I miss the red color scheme, but still like eating here on occasion. Just please let me come inside.
Parking: It’s a kinda weird parking lot, either fun-looking or a bit difficult to navigate depending on your point of view. Not great for long, wide-turning vehicles.
