Cuevas Drive In — Restaurant in Lubbock

Been here before always same issue, first time went drive through order 3 burritos and it took 20 mins to get my order, 2nd time called figured it would give them more time to make my order and the guy in the phone denied my order he said "Call back in 30 mins we have a big catering of 40 burritos" called back 30 minutes later and restaurant was closed due to a family illness, 3rd time called in a order 5 burritos all Bac. and egg tried to make it easy so I didn't have to wait the guy on the phone said it would be 15mins waited at home until it was time, went to the drive thru window waited another 5 minutes so he can make 1 tortilla and fix a burrito for a gentleman that was already waiting on his burrito for who knows how long just to be told that I was going to have to wait another 5 mins for my order which I'm more than sure it would have been a longer wait
