As a former Taco John’s manager, the potato olés were not hot and fresh. I never would have served these… disappointed.

Probably the best food I have try was at taco johns. I personally like taco johns over taco bell no shade to taco bell. I really like tacos here my usually is a #8 and it’s always fresh. You can’t go wrong and employees are always nice and they get your order the first time. You have great employees and the food is a chef kiss when comes to you guys. I love everything about this place. Quick and fast service through the drive thru. One day I went drive thru and it was down pouring but yeah it still good. I never had this type experience when comes to fast food but you guys have great staff. I think staff need a raise too. They deserve it.

Went to taco johns for dinner tonight sat in the drive thru for about 5-10mins waiting on person In front of me. They left with no food. I got up to menu to order waited 2-3minutes no answer at drive thru. Passed by the drive thru saw employees just standing standing around talking not paying attention. Worst customer service!!!

They have a white rice, black beans, beef, pico Gallo, some sour cream bowl that is such a great idea. You dont leave hungry. Employees are super polite. They seem happy to be there. Restaurant is clean.

Man. It was 4-29-23 at 11:45 pm when I pulled in. 15 minutes before close. (kind of a douche move on my part ) . And the young man working the drive through and kitchen by himself….blew me away. You deserve so much more help the. What you have. I highly commend you on your effort for a late night taco snacker like my self.

I order 2 nacho crunch chicken burritos when I go and without a beat every single time they give me beef. Every. Single. Time. I’m not kidding. Even if I ask them to make sure it’s chicken. It’s beef. Even if the receipt says chicken. It’s beef. It’s always beef. It’s always been beef and always will be beef.

Food is great normally. They are fast. The location is a little off. But it’s a busy area. Service is variable depending on who works. But all in all good place

A little bit of a longer wait in the drive thru than I would have expected and a slight error in my order but otherwise staff did good and food was great!

One of the employee not working brought in pizza and ate it at the restaurant. When I confronted the manager about it – he claim to say he didn’t see it. Then the manager had is two child in the office, I asked him is that safe. He response was they are in the office and I can’t afford child care. There seems to several issue here, pertaining to employee loyalty and then child endangerment going on at this store.
