    I can't ina with you

    I like that girls these days don't have that Taco Smell that they used to. A lot more hygienic, and there are even places like the Pretty Kitty going to town on, well, people's kitties. You can put crap food in a wrap, in a panini, but you Can'tina taco. And yet they do anyway. Ew. This is located on State Street in the heart of Madison Wisconsin and there are so many cool and trendy and interesting and even ethnic College places around here to eat that if you end up eating at Taco Bell then I don't know what to say except I feel sorry for you. He says after eating here (I was dragged here by a pretty girl I was with, okay? Same girl that is responsible for every awful Taco Bell trip in the last few years of my life okay? So settle down). Service is okay at this location but the food will make you run straight to the bathroom explode and it's not Mexican food at all although you can't really find that much good Mexican food in this part of Wisconsin anyway but that's no excuse to come eating here.

    I want to LOVE this Taco Bell because it's so pretty, but everything else really falls flat. Can you still get (VERY) affordable cheap Mexican food that actually tastes decent? Yes. Is it reliable that you'll get the food you ordered in 10 minutes or less? Hardly. I've been twice now: once for dinner on a weeknight and once for breakfast on a weekend. When I went for dinner, the cashier had trouble understanding what I wanted, even though I was trying to order off their vegan menu that's posted online. When my food finally came out (20+ minutes later), it was missing a burrito, so I told them, and they brought that out 10 minutes after that. They did give me free cinnamon twists for the trouble since it had gone so poorly. Recently, I stopped for breakfast and again had trouble ordering items that were on the menu online. The order came out correct this time, but again took about 20 minutes. I don't go to Taco Bell very often, but it's much quicker than that at ALL other locations. I half wonder if the fact that they don't have a drive-thru actually slows them down. Like other reviews mention, it was also not busy when I was there. The nice part? The restaurant is REALLY nice and clean, brand new. There are tons of TVs on the wall and it's in a very convenient location. My fingers are crossed that they get their alcohol license approved! It's a bit disappointing that a progressive town like Madison wouldn't want a one-of-a-kind Taco Bell in it.

    Constantly filled with homeless people just waiting to hassle you for money and food. Management does nothing about it..

    Finally got in here to dine in, and it was just as lovely as expected. We came here for lunch with…read morea group of six and had a wonderful time. Service was fantastic and they were very helpful with taking our order and explaining anything on the menu. We found a table and they brought us over chips/salsa/queso. All of these were so good and it was a struggle not to eat it all... I wanted to enjoy my tacos. Everyone in our group enjoyed their food and there were absolutely zero leftovers remaining! My two pastor and one steak tacos were overflowing with yummy goodness and I was definitely full afterwards! It's so nice that you can order tacos a la carte (or you can go the full meal and get the rice and beans etc, but I never eat them) for a reasonable price. I did squeeze my limes over the tacos, but they were so good as is I didn't even sample the salsas they brought to the table. It was the start of my day so I didn't get to enjoy an adult beverage, but certainly plan to be back again.

    I think the first time or two I was at this place I didn't have as good of an impression of this…read moreplace. My previous view was based hugely upon the poor customer experience that I had endured. But two weeks ago I returned because I was seriously craving a taco and the other nearby place had finally convinced me they were second rate. (I wrote a small bit, about that location, not more than a couple weeks back. I won't name it, but I rather hope these words will be taken to heart and affect change) But upon my reentry to this place I was beyond pleasantly surprised. Eduardo, the owner whom I have since met, is the reason why I have returned. An active and dedicated team needs their captain. So trying to reimagine the perfect taco place I had a fresh mindset and I think I was accurate about that choice. Today marks the 6th time in roughly 2 weeks. Basic ground beef tacos with onions, cilantro and some lime. Cheap and delicious. Absolutely not a bastardized low fat gringo taco. Not at all. Heavy on the filling and tasty. It's only missing one ingredient: spice. The orders include a pair of sauces, a green and red plastic cup with something resembling a hot sauce. Tuesday is a $1 ground beef taco. Sparse but not lacking in the meat. So glad I tried again. Eduardo has a key quality that makes a place feel welcoming. Friendly, and informative about the foods that are available. I don't speak Spanish, aside from simple jargon that every English speaker has to have as their basic vocabulary, even in regular American speak day to day situations. The place vibrates with a lot of ethnic authenticity right here in my Middleton neighborhood where I've lived now for 15 of my 25 years in Wisconsin.
