    Maverik stores are everywhere in this part of the country. They do sell beer onsite.

    I've never had dry farts that sounded so wet before…read more We stopped by on our way to Jackson since we needed something quick. We had taco time once 12 years ago and make fun of it every time we drive by one, but didn't really remember the food. When we pulled up to the drive thru window (which was a house window), I asked my wife if she had diapers for the kids. Then I semi jokingly asked if she had diapers for us. I figured - worst case - I'd have to pull over and have the squirts in the woods somewhere along the drive. The food took forever to "make". I told my wife they probably only have one microwave to cook it all in. I may have been right. Everything was room temp or below, except the kids chicken and potatoes, which they probably microwaved last. Anyway, my kids refused to eat the chicken. The potatoes were not bad. My wife had a few bites of her "taco" and threw it away. I paid for the food, so I ate most of my "taco" on principle. To my surprise, it didn't instantly give me the bubble guts. But then... the entire night, I kept farting myself awake with the loudest, wettest sounding (and feeling) farts I've ever had. I got up every time, thinking I had just soiled the bed. But I'd wipe and everything was perfectly dry and clean. I have no idea about the science behind such a phenomenon, but in my 41 years of life, this is a new one for me. Still giving it 3 stars though since it pretty much met expectations.

    Your typical fast food place. I love their crispy meat burritos. Best ever. Had two of them and…read moresome mexi fries. Great. Plenty of sauces. I usually get a dozen uncooked to take home with me as we don't have a Taco Time within 500 miles. Service was great and the meal was very enjoyable.

    Absolutely recommend this place. Worth the wait as the small staff is making items fresh. Great…read morelocal, small, place. We will be back next time we are in the Jackson area.

    I rarely leave negative reviews, but this was one of the most frustrating restaurant experiences…read moreI've ever had. When we arrived, the restaurant was completely full, but it's a very small dining room with only about 10 tables. We only waited about 10 minutes to be seated, and after seeing the great Yelp reviews, we were excited to eat there. There was only one larger party of eight; the rest of the tables were small groups, so nothing suggested the kitchen was overwhelmed. We were seated at 6:10 p.m., ordered drinks, and placed our dinner order shortly afterward. Then...nothing. We waited so long that we ordered a second round of drinks, assuming our food would be arriving any minute. After finishing those drinks, we finally asked about our order around 7:30 p.m.--more than an hour after ordering. The response from the other server was disappointing. Without any real apology or concern, we were simply told it would be another 10-15 minutes because they "had lots of to-go orders." If the kitchen was prioritizing takeout over guests who had been sitting in the dining room for well over an hour, that should have been communicated from the beginning. Then 10 minutes later, to make matters worse, the other server to whom we inquired --not even ours--brought peppermints to the table to "help with our hunger." Whether it was intended as humor or not, it came across as incredibly insensitive given we'd been waiting 1 hour and 20 minutes. At that point, we asked for our bill for the drinks and decided to leave. Unsurprisingly, our food appeared almost immediately after we asked for the check. By then, the experience had completely ruined our appetite. Our actual server did apologize, and I appreciated that, but it was simply too late to salvage the evening. I've eaten at countless restaurants over the years, and I have never experienced anything quite like this. Long waits can happen, but a restaurant should communicate honestly, apologize sincerely, and make guests feel valued. Unfortunately, none of that happened here. We left disappointed and I feel the need to warn others. I felt bad for our actual server (who we tipped normally) because she couldn't help the delay in the kitchen or her coworker's behavior.
