“The drive thru had a long line and wasn't moving too fast but, the person taking the order was very friendly. Sometimes you think they would be miserable with a line that long, but at this location they were great. The food was typical taco bell stuff.“
“This is your standard Taco Bell. Nothing wild, nothing fancy, no chandeliers or Michelin stars hanging from the ceiling. Just a normal Taco Bell doing normal Taco Bell things.
However. 👀
The guy that works the drive-thru window with the glasses? Absolute legend. A scholar. Possibly the last good man left in fast food.
Now for context, I hate drive-thru small talk. I don’t want to chat. I don’t want to discuss my day. I don’t want to build a relationship over a Crunchwrap Supreme. My ideal drive-thru interaction is a silent exchange like two spies passing classified documents. You hand me the bag, I hand you the card, we nod respectfully, and we both move on with our lives.
Mutual respect.
This man understands that. But somehow he still manages to make your day better every single time without forcing you into a conversation you didn’t ask for. I genuinely don’t know how he does it. Some people are just built different.
Sometimes me and my family will literally go there just to feel better and get a snack, because why not? Therapy is expensive but a Baja Blast and a pleasant human interaction is like $6.
Now I did remove one star because I recently tried the Chicken Bacon Ranch Street Chalupas, and I would like to personally ask Taco Bell corporate what exactly possessed them to create that monstrosity. It tastes like someone described Taco Bell to a person who has never eaten food before and they just guessed.
Everyone involved in the creation of that item should probably be reassigned to a different department immediately.
However, that culinary crime is not the fault of this location, and the window guy with the glasses remains a hero.
4 stars. Would absolutely return for both tacos and emotional support. 🌮“
