Taco John's

Always great service and awesome food. The staff in the top 10% of all the great service, fast food restaurants I go to. The only reason for the 4 stars instead of 5 (really should have given them 5) is a peculiar drivethru procedure that happens to me about 1 out 5 times I go there. Now pay attention......I order my food at the menu board, pull ahead to the window, pay them and occasionally the food isn't quite ready so they ask me to pull forward. Well I get this, I've been around long enough to know that this request allows them to service the car behind me and then they will run out my order when its ready......no problem right? Well they ask me to pull ahead when no one is behind me. So I tell this "How about I sit here at the window and if someone pulls up behind me I'll pull ahead then" He gives me a peculiar look and says nothing but goes and gets the manager who comes to the window and says with a lot of determination "you will need to pull ahead, it screws up my drive thru times if you sit here" Now this is in the middle of winter about zero degrees out. Now the kid who was working the window instead of just handing it to me out the window gets to take my order outside. He has no coat on and cold so he is running. Potentially slipping and falling on the ice. All this so "I" don't screw up her drive thru times. This happened twice withing the same week and with different shift managers. Again, I get it if someone is behind me. I always pull ahead without question but It's weird otherwise.

Blows away Taco Bell(which I don't eat back east for years anyway). Overall much better quality and taste. Potato Ole's are awesome.

All the laughter was refreshing to hear. Everyone seemed to know their job and to get things done. The manager run a good night shift. The store is super clean.

I had a large order, they took the time to clarify and read it back. When I got to the window they asked me to pull ahead and wait for my order which I did.
They brought it out quickly and it was all freshly prepared. We checked the order like we always do at fast food restaurants and not only was it correct the first time, they even included sauce that had forgotten to ask for.
This is a quick, accurate and overall great experience that lacks at most other fast food chains nowadays.
Thanks Taco John's on North Cliff.
