Torchy's Tacos — Restaurant in Dallas

I typically eat at Torchy's at least once a week if not more. This particular visit really put a new perspective on where I chose to eat location wise. I get to the walk up order locaction area. No one at the counter. I am still double checking with my 3 kids what they want. After about 5 minutes I told my kids to sit in the booth right behind while I order. There was a lady in a black and red tie dyed Torchy shirt that had been texting a little ways from the counter but basically right there. I had waved she looked up from her phone and went straight back to texting. It wasn't till about 10 minutes later the line that had quickly formed behind me someone asked if I have been helped. After letting another customer know Ive been here for a long time she flagged down someone off the clock. They ended up finding a Trainer on duty who came to the front. A back and forth happened where the employee behind the bar texting said well I don't have a card what do you want me to do. After things were figured out She finally started taking my order. As someone who eats here regularly my kids orders sometimes change but I am very specific with my order but not complicated. Ordered everything after multiple eye rolls and I can't order that even though it's on the kids menu. I get to my taco which is a Madidor sub jerk chicken because I don't eat red meat. He argued a bit back and forth that we don't Change or do that. At this point I was ready to leave but another co worker showed her how to ring in this modification. I pay and go to get my kids drink and water. She comes to me while I have 4 drinks in hand and says here is your Torchy's Tini. I point out the obvious my hands are full. She hufs and pufs and rolls her eyes. I let her know follow me these 20 steps or I can come get it. At the point I should have just left but have paid for my food and I decide to stay. The food starts to come out and everything seems OK. I talked to the person who dropped my food off, which was I believe Garrett or Jarrett and I just kind of let him know what was happening. I was very unhappy and had a really uncomfortable encounter with the lady at the front, he let me know that he was a trainer and they were working on certain things. I will say he made the visit a lot better and that I will continue to go back to Torchy's. The more frustrating part is that the taco her and I went back-and-forth about was never rand in correctly and the food runner looked at me as if I might have not specified what I wanted. We waited for that, and on top of it that there was a significant amount of fruit flies that we continued to shoe away...

Casa Linda Plaza, Dallas: I had lunch here at noon and it was busy but there were plenty of tables open. The place was clean and the staff was friendly and wearing masks. It was very interesting inside too. Lots of things to look at and different places to sit. Most of the walls were garage doors which could be opened when it's cooler in the evening. I want to come back for that! I ordered at the counter. I told the cashier I had not been here before and she was kind enough to explain how it works and reccomended the "award winning chips and queso". (The tacos are single and a la cart) I ordered one Green Chile Pork and one Crossroads and of course the Queso. It wasn't long before the food arrived and the queso was outstanding. It had different piles of goodness right in the queso so you could have a bit of each on every chip or mix it all together if you wanted. The tacos were good although a little dry. The Crossroads is brisket, grilled onions and jalapenos and the Green Chile Pork is Pork Carnitas and Cojita Cheese. There are many taco to choose from and I want to go back to try some more in the evening to see if they open those garage doors. Thanks Torchy's staff...
