My local Taco Time is very clean and bright! The food is fresh and delicious! Personally, I really enjoy the Chicken Taco Salad! I appreciate the new Taco Sauce that’s been added to the condiments list, because I can’t eat onions!

First off, the ingredients in the food are top notch for the prices. Really hard to screw up when the quality of the food is very high. I’ve been there twice and I’m picky but the bathrooms were clean, the tables had comfortable seats. The staff hand delivered my food to my table. I liked that I can take my time ordering on the iPad to get just what I wanted and not feel rushed.

Cheapest Taco Time that I have found. Parking lot is tiny by the building though there is a large empty lot which is why it’s really surprising to me that a worker here (I’m the only customer in here) has decided to take 2 of the small spaces by the building instead of the larger lot where they could have 4 spaces because it’s empty. This irks me. It’s a smallish SUV. I somehow park a huge work van in the 1 spot provided.

WOW! I know the old saying “never judge a book by it’s cover” but from the look of this place I never would have expected such a hidden jem! My food came out before I had completely finished filling my drink and settled down at a table. I had ordered a beef taco combo which comes with tater tots. It seems strange, but I was not disappointed at all! The tots were perfectly salted and crispy, my tacos were filled with super fresh ingredients and the tortilla was very fluffy. The salsa they offer added a pleasant kick to too it all off.

I HAVE BEEN TO TACO TIME FOR THE PAST 9 YEARS AND I DO LIKE THE FOOD, IT’S VERY DELICIOUS AND PORTIONS ARE VERY GOOD. WHEN I WAS AT THIS LOCATION SERVICE IS VERY POOR, THE EMPLOYEES JUST STANDING AROUND AND DON’T SEEM TO CARE FOR THE CUSTOMERS, I FELT UNWELCOME NO EVEN A HI! AT THE COUNTER AND WHEN THEY DELIVER THE FOOD THEY JUST TROW YOUR TRAY AT THE TABLE AND DON’T EVEN SAY THANK YOU BACK. THE FOOD WAS GREAT SERVICE VERY POOR VERY POOR SERVICE. I WILL THINK ABOUT IT BEFORE COMING BACK HERE JUST BECAUSE OF THE SERVICE IT SUCKS, IT FEELS LIKE THEY DON’T WANT YOU TO SPEND YOUR HARD WORKING MONEY HERE….

I was excited to try the coconut shrimp. I ordered the soft taco with mexi-fries & unsweetened iced tea. I paid $14+. The mexi-fries were stone cold & there were 3 dried out pinto beans tucked in the container with them. The soft taco was filled with cabbage, loads of sour cream, a lot of sweet & sour sauce and 2 shrimp. So if you’re into a lot of cabbage, sour cream & sweet ‘n sour sauce wrapped in a tortilla, you may enjoy this meal. The tea tasted good. The woman who took my order was fine. The woman who took my money just said, “$14.66” so no hello. No smile. I don’t think she even looked at me. One of her colleagues did wish me a good day upon leaving. I was disappointed with the food and the service.
