Unclean practices observed. Cook had one gloved hand, he put it in his pants pocket, then handled tortillas with same hand, then took my cash and gave me change same gloved hand.

Worst management ever. Waited for the drive through after the car in front of me pulled away for 10 to 15 minutes and no one came on to take my order. Must have been something wrong with the drive through and no one knew I was there, because as soon as I drove off, the car behind me was able to order. I went in to order and asked about the drive through and the manager there told me in the rudest way possible that I was wrong and that I must have only waited for a few minutes since there had been cars going through the drive through one after another all morning. I have never been treated like that at any establishment ever and will never go to any Taco Shack location ever.

Amazing tacos and breakfast burritos at great prices. A no frills local classic. I love the breakfast burritos but also recommend the tacos with carne guisada or beef fajita. Drive thru and dine in available.

I really need to remember to go to the Parmer location instead of this one. The food is tasty, but it seems like this location always screws up something about my order. Today they shorted me an entire taco (about $5) that I didn’t notice until I was back home. CHECK your order before you pull away from the window!

This place serves microwaved food that’s not good and the lobby is not even open to eat. I have rarely wanted a refund for buying food but I did here.

After 10 years of loyal patronage, owner, YOLANDA, was rude to me today as we had a misunderstanding at the drive through and in her world it seems like the customer is ALWAYS WRONG. You should replace the poor quality drive through speakers so we can hear each other as opposed to screaming at me and saying I am hollering at you. I couldn’t hear you! Mine was unintentional, YOLANDA needed to scream at me because she was embarrassed in front of her employees. Not my problem. Also, everyone except YOLANDA already knows my order since I have been ordering the same thing for at least 3 years. I regret I will not be able to go back…maybe some day but i don’t like starting my day with YOLANDA. Not pleasant. I missed Freddie.

We recently moved back to town. This taco shack used to have the best service. Today, with my order, I asked for extra salsa while ordering. When I got to the window, the young woman got frustrated when I handed her my debit card, I’m not sure why. When she handed me the order, she shut the window without a word. I waited for the extra salsa, so when she came back, she said “did you need something else?” I asked for the extra salsa and she rolled her eyes and responded, “next time ask for it when you order” … but that’s the thing, I did.

Super disappointed in her attitude which was completely unprompted. I miss the super friendly man that always treated people nicely.

There is a taco shack down the street I’ll go to next time. There is also Rudy’s next door and they are always friendly. Invest in people with better attitudes for key positions. They don’t have to be smiling, but not being immediately RUDE would be a nice start.

Went thru the drive through. 1 coffee and 1 taco. The young guy at the window got visibly upset at me because I asked him for sugar and cream. He angrily said “next time ask for those at the beginning” (which I had but he hadn’t heard). Then he shut the window in my face. I immediately called and asked to speak to the manager. “Yoli” picked up the phone and when I explained what happened, she started shouting and saying “I got lucky to even speak to her because she’s the owner” and “she didn’t need those issues”.
Unbelievable!!!

Stopped here for breakfast today and was disappointed in the service and food. We ordered four tacos, two on corn and two on flour. We waited a bit to be helped and they seemed extremely hectic inside. There was a tall guy that took our order, it felt rushed and no explanation of the menu. We waited nearly Twenty minutes for our order. The whole time the ladies making the orders were very frantic. Looks like they were working on a few large orders. The guy ended up telling everyone wanting to place an order or waiting for an order it would be at least twenty minutes because they were working on a few large orders. Finally got our tacos and all on flour and more eggs than anything else.
