on this trip - i knew i was going to get the mexican pizza no matter what, but i was kind of unsure between the crunchwrap supreme and cheesy gordita crunch
ended up going with the crunchwrap supreme as my second dish - substituting meat for beans of course
in addition, the mexican pizza also had beans instead of beef
starting with the crunchwrap - I was initially apprehensive as the outside looked like a weirdly shaped burrito, but the inside surprised me with how good it was - I didn't know what to expect as I didn't look at the description before ordering
the crunchy tostada shell inside was so good - overall it was kind of like if you put a crunchy taco inside a bean burrito. It made the wrap feel like a completely unique thing - and I was so pleasantly surprised by this when I took my first bite
The next thing that surprised me was the nacho cheese sauce - this mixed so well with the other fillings it elevated them as well This sat at a layer in the bottom - and as its a sauce it was already pre-melted, and was just really good
I also really liked the way it combined with the beans and the lettuce, which was really soft and great to bite into, to create some layered goodness
Of course, the mexican pizza was still the absolute winner here
The last time I had it was with beef - but I think I prefer the beans better. The layer that they added was so perfect, and filled the space between the two tostadas so well that they were even squeezing out at times
Nothing else can be said about the absolute perfection of the level of crunchiness of the outer tostadas No other item can hold a candle to how beautiful the melted cheese over these shells looks and tasted. The spaghetti-like streaks of cheese fuses right into the exterior shell - creating an otherwordly mix. Even the tomatoes are good and I hate tomatoes!
A truly all-time menu item this is
Lastly, if you thought I was going to go this far without mentioning the fire sauce, you're wrong This (as usual) was just absolutely perfect on every part of this meal
The way it can simulataneously work on both the crunchy tostada and the softer tortila and taste amazing on both is why it can't be topped It's just unreal how well it mixed with anything - sour cream, cheese, lettuce, tomatoes - it doesn't overpower it - rather it just significantly elevates everything it's placed on
I think I used over 10 packets for just these two items
Overall, I don't even know if I could really improve anything. Since there's only so good cheap fast food can really be, there's a cap on it - but given its constraints - this is basically everything I wanted

Read moreI've worked in fast food so I understand waits can get long and food takes time so I'm always patient and kind to the workers UNLESS they give me attitude consistently throughout the interaction. I was asked to wait which was perfect because it gave me time to look over the menu, I was asked if I ordered yet and I said no (I understand that sometimes cars just don't move forward), then I was asked what I wanted. I got the #1 combo and I waited for them to respond with what drink or add-ons...I hear nothing for several minutes which is still ok because I see him handing the customers at the window their change, but it was him irritatingly say I got the #1 and anything else so I repeat that I want the combo and finally tell him my drink because what would it hurt if I do have to repeat myself again. I add on a caramel apple empanada and after that, he asked if I want anything else. I could tell he was already irritated so I just settled for those. When at the window, things didn't get much better and my food wasn't very hot for being as busy as it was. Then there's "#snowmaggedon". I called, always double checking the number to see if it matches the location I'm calling, to make sure they're open before I risk driving in the snow to satisfy a craving. They said they closed at 11pm for the weather. Great! Because by the time I arrive, it would only be 1020pm. I pull up to the window and they said they're closed...cool. So the first 2 times I go back to Taco Bell in over 6 months are terrible experiences. Only reason for 2 stars is because at least they're food is consistent, hot or not. When I lived in Kent, the taco bell there would constantly forget items but at least they're customer service was amazing and their...
Read moreThis place was the best Taco Bell for delivery and all service but now the place seems to be degrading specially to drivers, the ladies are nice and sweet whereas boys seems to have full of attitude and one of the guy with the glass in the window taking order is racist and he does discrimination, one time he threatened me to throw out of my full time job and banned me from Taco Bell Uber app I called Uber regarding that and they told he can’t do anything as I have always obeyed all the rules and respected my work and the places I go, again today he literally let everybody enter the store and closed the door when I was about to enter, all the drivers were inside and 2 drivers parked car at similar time and we were all entering the door at same time but he left me out and locked the door but let other enter. Other people opened the door and let me in because all felt that was bit weird and discriminatory, if I had come after closed lobby that’s different story but letting someone in and closing door for me is purely racial and discriminatory. I asked his name he didn’t bother to give, manager came and I asked his name and told what happened and asked the person name but he didn’t instead he was like it is same thing to stand outside or inside, I know it’s same thing to wait inside outside but just me with same person discriminating doesn’t sound good. I always respect every employee of every restaurant I go and I have done delivery for 4+ years but the person is too much to hand. I hope to contact Taco Bell headquarters and get this things solved every time this guy is infront of me at this Taco Bell he ruins my mood and my work because of his discriminatory behaviors...
