Service was horrible, waited 15 minutes in line with nobody there when we pulled up. Then when I asked to at least get our drinks Shannon tried to ignore me so when I asked again she snapped at me with attitude. I understand only having 2 people, and I've worked in food service, and I understand how stressful having a new system is, but being disrespectful is never acceptable. I was being nice and just trying to get our drinks. If they were having issues they could've said something and we would have understood. read more

Taco Bueno - Mexican Near Me - Abilene, Texas

For some reason the woman bathroom was locked. I waited a While, then gave up and went into the men's. It wasn't locked. There was also no soap in the men's room. After I was done then the man at the counter offered me a key. Never apologized. Wish I hadn't bought food here. read more

This Taco Bueno had a bad rating on Yelp but our experience was good! The place was very clean, everybody was nice and friendly, the food was fast, good and a reasonably priced! My one typical complaint is the Firehouse salsa is still a bit watery and bland (wish they had multiple salsa options like Rosa's) and their guacamole isn't anything special but at least they aren't usually stingy. Otherwise everything was good! read more

Taco Bueno - Chicken Muchaco Platter - Mexican Near Me - Abilene, Texas

Hit or miss with Bueno. I used to love going here, especially the one on 277. The last time my son went at 11 pm ans there was a line. They told everyone they were closed. Their sign and website said midnight and has for many years. I called ans they said we're closed and hung up. I was livid only because their signs were where said open. I contacted corporate. They did change their signs. But the manager who answered the phone would have lost her job the way she spoke to me and to everyone at the drive through. When corporate found out and I sent photos of their signs and website, they apologized and got my addressing saying they would mail coupons. They didn't. I literally live across the parking lot...walking distance. That was 5 months ago ans I refuse to eat at a Bueno, especially that one. It sucks because I liked Bueno but it's the principle. Rudeness gets zero business from me. Ans trust me, they've messed up a lot and I've gone back. Time to just say no. Fast food is bad for you anyway. We won't be back. And we ate there at least twice a week. They don't need our business. But whatever it is, rhey don't have long lines anymore either. Like I said, I can see them from my house. read more

Was there recently. Way to expensive considering the poor quality of food offered. Went thru drive thru. Got to window and was greater by a women's voice but was a ? Man. Who knows these days. Paid and left. Their macho taco was horrible, their avocado dip and chips Had no taste and didn't look good any way. Lost my appetite and threw away the avocado dip and burrito. While at the window, asked them to make sure they gave me some napkins. A very obese Mexican rolled his eyes and looked at the other employee, but did give me my napkins, even though I didn't need them later after finding out how bad the food was. In my opinion, this place doesn't deserve to be even open. I gave them 1 star only because their wasn't a choice below one star. WONT BE GOING BACK EVER AGAIN!!! Will wait till the day they bulldoze it down. IT WILL BE A VERY GOOD DAY THEN. read more

The food is good, service is good, place is calm and easy choice for Mexican food. Prices are affordable

got my order wrong and lady taking my order was rude, was at the drive thru she gave me my food, forgot the salsa which was no problem until I tried to get her attention, she looked at me, looked away then shook her head. Had a disgusting look because she had to go to the back to get salsa. I wanted two bean burritos with sourcream, two soft tacos with extra cheese, instead I got three bean burritos no sourcream, and 2 soft tacos with no cheese. I do want to say most of the people who work there are very nice, just this lady in particular is always like this. read more

This place is straight trash and by the looks of the reviews, guess I am correct. Let me say that the burrito I ordered and taco weren't actually that bad. I just moved to town a week ago and have passed this place twice a day for that week. Today I decided to try it and give them a shot. Drove up to the drive thru and ordered the burrito. Then I tried to order what looks like chips, salsa and guacamole but it had a name on the menu I assume I wasn't pronouncing correct because the girl at the drive they kept saying "what". She then said hold on and had me wait for what seemed like 4 minutes. She came back on and repeated the burrito, the price and told me to pull forward. I explayo her that I wasn't done. Guess that was her way of going "next"......... so I have up on the chips and ordered a taco. Once I was done , she gave me the total and told me to drive up. I drove up and the girl kept laughing at me. At that point I realized that I had an immature 16-18 year old girl working the drive thru. Then I realized that the other workers kept staring at me from the background. Knowing fast food, you know they were talking about me. However I just spent $9. It was the most awkward interaction ever. It was rude and honestly because of that I won't come back. You'd think an organization would try to gain customers and not lose. But those kids don't care. If you're thinking of eating here, don't! This place is straight trash. Workers don't seem to care so why stop in and give them money. The sad thing is the food was ok. Trash is what this place is, and the other reviews reflect it. ‍ read more

Had a bad experience with the blonde employee in the drive through - she said they were out of salsa, but we can go inside and get our own at the salsa bar. My sister is pregnant and asked if she could get some and replied "no you can get it at the salsa bar inside" - very poor customer service. read more

Side of worms? Pretty sure I said side of salsa... I called the number on Apple Maps and the phone number is incorrect. Called and said it was disconnected. read more

Taco Bueno - Got a side of worms with my taco salad! - Mexican Near Me - Abilene, Texas

The best part about going here is the uncontrollable laughing I got afterwards. I just wanted some nachos and a taco as a meal, instead I got some taco bowl that was probably the worst thing I've eaten in a long time, it was like a cheap taco without any of the convenience of being a taco. Just a bowl of ice berg lettuce and tomatoes cupped by a bowl of crumbly, unwieldy shelling that forced you at gun point to eat with a fork. Anyways, thanks for the laughs. I appreciate that. And I tried to eat as much as I could because I don't like wasting food but I just couldn't. My dog finished the rest and im sure she appreciates you too. read more

Upon arrival place looked and smelled clean Employees were extremely nice and polite took my order and even brought it to the table, Nice ! Food was very fast however it didn't taste very good that's why Iam only giving it 3 stars. Sorry guys but your service and politeness get 5 + stars read more

A GROSS shithole! The manager IS rude and the place is gross go to any place but here Drink spickets sre dirty drinks are flat dirty kitchen. Very poor management. Save your money. read more

I come here because my wife likes bueno. This time it seemed they went out of their way to give poor quality food. My steak BOB the steak was dry and old. The fresh made daily items were also visibly old. We ordered cheesecake chimichanga s for desert and they were cold and partially frozen inside. read more

Taco Bueno - a man in a restaurant - Mexican Near Me - Abilene, Texas

Over the years, the service here has always been mediocre at best. Sometimes it's pretty fast, sometimes it's pretty slow. The inside is small and sometimes messy. The food is good though, specifically the cheesecake chimichangas, party burritos, and the MexiDips & Chips. Anything else is OK at best. I do appreciate that they offer 20% off for military discount, so that's nice. read more

Taco Bueno - MexiDips & Chips - Mexican Near Me - Abilene, Texas

Just as good as any taco bueno I guess. This specific location has a particular niche, they will turn their entire businesses lights off about an hour and a half before closing time, then guilt trip potential costumers into believing that they are "getting ready to close." It honestly wouldn't bother me to see this location finally close; they've been detouring customers for years and years. read more

Just picked up some food there for the 1st time today. Not sure why I did. Inside of the restaurant was absolutely filthy. But probably not as dirty as the guy preparing it behind the counter. They have no idea how to make an enchilada. And what they make and call an enchilada is garbage. I will never go back there again. And I would advise you to stay away from there also. This food was crap. read more

Extremely slow service, waited 20 mins in drive thru for halfway decent amount of food. Don't waste your time. read more

Taco Bueno started in Abilene, so I feel I must visit it. The guacamole is a little bland, the salsa is good and the food seems to be fresher than other fast food Tex-Mex. The food is pretty good I think it has good flavors and spice. read more

Smells bad, store extremely dirty, ice machine broken and ice in tub on counter! I wouldn't touch the salsa bar and looks like they haven't touched it in hours! Maybe the Heath inspector need to pay this place a visit. read more

As you drive around town you'll cross Taco Buenos at some point there's four of them in Abilene. What you get a a Tex-Mex meal or you can go with taco's or burritos price is fair enough. I like them stop in about once a month. My faver Taco Buenos in on North 1st. Just like the other chain Mex places in town its open late and opens early. Check them out. read more

Taco Bueno - taco bueno - Mexican Near Me - Abilene, Texas

Think about a home cooked mexican meal, that's an "A+". Taco Bell, a "C-" ... if that. So, if an "F" is for food "Not meant for human consumption.", then this place is a solid, "D-"! I feel sick. read more

Nothing I received was what I ordered. It was sloppy and the sweet tea was rancid. My husband said no tomatoes but there were a few on everything he ordered. read more

The employees were very nice. Admittedly they don't get in a big hurry, lol, but it's not unbearable! I politely told them my kids weren't loving their food, they made it right immediately. Is it a bit more expensive than taco hell? Yes! Anytime I can feed 5 under $25 bucks, I'm happy! I stick to the the things Taco Bueno has always done right. Tacos, queso, Mexi-Dips & nachos. Maybe if I branched out into other things, I might feel it's expensive. The 4 star is a good rating from me. I save 5 stars for exceptional food, service & cleanliness. My daughter loves it tho! read more

Taco Bueno - My baby girl loves it! - Mexican Near Me - Abilene, Texas

See all

Absolutely the worst service, food, I have ever experienced. Used to love Taco Bueno. Took 30 min to get one bean burrito. The two young men working might as well have been sleeping. A whole new level of laziness. Too damn lazy to even say Thank You. The two ladies with purple hair were just slinging food with no regard to quality or cleanliness. The food line where they prepare the food was just disgusting. I have a photo but saving that for the health Dept. On top of that the dining area smelled like a Porta potty.. What the hell happened Tack Bueno? I'm from out of town and was raised in Abilene. Just simply wanted my old time favorite burrito. Wow, what a let down. How does this place even stay open?? I have never left such a stinging review on Yelp but this place really deserved it. This is the Taco Bueno on South 14th and the Winters Freeway. I was there on Thursday 4/29 at 6:00 pm.... read more

Taco bueno has always been by far my favorite. It has gotten progressively worse over the last year or so. This is by far the worst experience I have ever had. Was over charged. They forgot 2 burritos, 2 bags of chips the guava and sour cream on a meal. They were not nice when asked to refund the wrong items and add the missing stuff, like it was my fault, when I finally got home, the food was cold, stale and old hard broken tortillas for burritos. Couldn't even eat it. Thanks for the memories it will be the last read more

I have had good luck at the other locations. This one has murdered my order 3 times in a row. I will not be back. Save your money and go somewhere else... read more

If I could give 0 stars, I would. The workers there were very rude from the beginning. After receiving our order, we realized they were some items missing so we went back in. They argued with my boyfriend on the items that were missing the we didn't actually order them.... when we had proof with the receipt. Even then, the quality of said items (being 2 quesos and 2 burritos) were absolutely horrible. Very very disappointed. read more

I will not come back to this location the customer service sucked!! The Mexican girl with the burn marks on her face at the drive thru window was real rude. I asked for no ice in my drink she got super pissed hands me another drink with with the drink dripping with soda all over the outside of it. I asked for a napkin she got pissed again and shoved my food out the window. I will be contacting corporate! read more

I won't give this restaurant any stars. I went there about a month ago, and while asking what an item was, the clerk rang it up on my ticket, I got home had a higher than I should have ticket. The food was bad , so I chalked it up to my 1st time there. Well, I just tried it again. Once again I asked how many chips were on the mexi-dip plate, so they charged me for an xtra order of chips, she never answered my question. When I got the order home, I opened the container and got the nastiest musty smell I have ever been around, and I've been working restaurants for over 40 years & never smelled food or oil fried foods that nasty. They need to tend to their equipment better than that. The chips were VERY stale, even the beans & guacamole smelled & tasted the same . The only item that tasted halfway decent was the lemonade, I don't think they can mess that up. From now on I will spend my money at Taco Bell, they immediately give my my Sr. Discount ,answer my questions and the food has great flavor, I'm just hoping I don't get sick from tonight. :-(, very bad service and food. Go to the "Bell" , better safe than sorry. !! The only reason I posted 1 star is that it is a required field, they need to allow for NEGATIVE stars. read more

Tried a chicken burrito...overpriced for a tiny thing. Husband had tacos and were cheaper and better. Not a fan of the chili. Rather have Taco Bell read more

For some reason I keep going to this location and thinking it will get better. It used to be good ... Now, not so much. I ordered a chicken potato burrito and it was the size of a party burrito. I know food prices are high but this was ridiculous. Tasted ok - all 4 bites. Biggest concern was that everything I had was SALTY. Not just a little bit but REALLY SALTY. Not sure what happened but not very pleasant to eat. Do yourself a favor and try a different Bueno. read more

We have never had disgusting food at this place before. We had ordered from this location, went to drive-thru last night and my burritos had a real thin slab of beans along with very little cheese, not to mention tastes horrible. The side of rice I got, it's not completely done. This is horrible, will never go back there again. If I could post pics of this food on here, I would. Both of us had stomach issues all thru the night. This was a good place to eat 3 years ago and now it's crap, will now keep going to Taco Casa. read more

Seriously don't waste your time by visiting this location, they suck. The last two times i have ordered they screw it up, how hard is it to remember no sour cream on a taco? The location on buffalo gap is 1000 times better. read more
