Twas a dark, late night on a Friday. I was alone. Smoked enough to send any man tripping through time but it was then a bell rings in my head. A.... taco bell.
I had a hankerin', I dropped my anchor in. And there we were. The glorious bell atop the hill, ringing chimes of joyous burritos and tacos alike. But in a moment, all was still. It was then I knew something was amiss. The drive through stopped.
Not an inch as moved and minutes passed. "Had I made a mistake? Should I ensure my escape while I still had the chance?" I think to myself nervously. When a man peels out behind my in rage. Our eyes met in the mirror and without a word, I understood his pain. A heart broken man who has folded under the trials of time. He will eat no more.
But then...
Like a veil of darkness was lifted from a desolate land, the line sprang to life! We rejoiced, sang songs of praise for the delight that beheld us. I approach the screen, trying to maintain composure. "What can I get you" they begrudgingly ask. With glee and a tinkle of my eye I say "chalupa cravings box. Soft taco"
The line drudged on but without slight, I remained optimistic fore soon I shall feast upon the bells Boone. The light of the window brightens my car like some holy light. She holds out the card reader thing. I give my offerings to the taco lords and they smile kindly upon me, finally granting me my reward. I drive away triumphant as a single tear fills my weary eyes. I have won this day.
Chick was nice, line...
Read moreThis is hands down the most poorly run fast food restaurant I have ever been to.
For one, "fast" is more than a misnomer, especially if you make the mistake of ordering in the restaurant or even placing a mobile order for carry out, regularly my friends and I have had to wait upwards of 30 minutes to pick up orders we placed through the app well-before arrive at the "restaurant", and before you ask, no they've never been busy (gee, I wonder why).
And for "food", it is laughable how often they screw up orders. Case in point, I just recently picked up an order, my spicy potato soft taco had (I kid you not) 1 potato wedge and 0 sauce. My cheesey gordita crunch has maybe a teaspoon of beef in it, again, 0 sauce, and a hilarious small, I guess dash would be the word, of cheese.
So they're not fast, and more often than not the food they serve is screwed up. So I'm not sure how they could be considered "fast food."
I have lost count of the amount of times my orders have been screwed up here, and of course there's somehow "no way" for them to issue any refunds through the same app you paid for.
Take my word for it, you're better off going to the Taco Bell next to the mall, fast service, and never once have they gotten my order incorrectly.
Or if you're deadset on eating on Timberlake, El Cabritos is a much better option than this joke of...
Read moreThe taco bell on timberlake is vastly inferior to candlers mountain. Never going to the timberlake location again. I ordered 2 double stacked tacos with no lettuce and they came with lettuce so I looped around to get it fixed. Manager comes on the mic like, "uhhh, what's goody bro?" I tell him the problem a few times again until he understands that because they came with lettuce I want them replaced. He said they couldn't take the bad tacos back. I told him I didn't want them and didn't want them taking space in my trash can so they can go ahead and throw them in theirs. He told me to throw them out the window in the parking lot... so I did. And he seemed to plan to just leave them there. Then when I get my replacement tacos theres no cheese between the soft taco shell and hard taco shell, the hard taco shells are crushed to pieces and destroyed, and theres literally a teaspoon of meat and about 20 shreds of cheese inside and no chipotle sauce. They were paper thin, missing 2 ingredients, and looked like they had been stomped on or thrown against a wall. They watched me blankly as I said they looked absolutely terrible and that I wouldn't be back, and for them to have a great time screwing up in there. The cashier shut the window and...
