    Broken party taco with basically no lettuce
    Jenna H.

    So my husband went on a Saturday night. I'm sure that is a busy time and we received all of our food, so that was a plus! The quality of the food was not so great. My mucho nachos had no cheese!!! Our tacos also looked pretty pathetic. The plus was that they gave us plenty of salsa. Other branches have told me they were not allowed to give me a decent amount of salsa even if I paid for it!

    This is a disgrace to the Taco Bueno I grew up with. I got to leave for my lunch break early so I went through the drive thru. Figured I could spend the leftover time to catch up with mom things. Drive thru was a nightmare. The guy isn't talking into the microphone and I had to repeat my order FIVE times. I pull up and the guy at the window (had the drive thru headset on) had to go over my order another THREE times. 3 muchacos, quesadilla meal, party burrito and a nacho meal. I drove off thinking surely after 8 times of repeating it, it should be fine. I drive all the way back to work to find they forgot half of my coworkers meal and half of mine. I tried calling and they wouldn't answer. So I used that extra time I was wanting for errands to go back up there to the drive thru to play the repeat game again with the guy to only get what I paid for. No apology, no extra food, nothing. Then I got back to work and sit with my cold nachos and open one of my items and see this. Fingernail punctures. Wasted time, wasted money and took one bite of food. $34 down the drain for terrible food and service. Our office will not come back and whomever they tell this story to will not and I sure won't! Disgusting! Hire someone who can properly work the drive thru

    We stopped in at this location to use our "A Wholotta Box" coupon. There was a note on the drive through menu apologizing for the wait ahead of time because they are short staffed. After we paid at the window we were asked to pull into a front parking spot where they told us they'd bring our order out to us. We waited 15 minutes and then our box was brought out to us. Y'all, the tacos and burritos were freshly made and hot, the rice and beans were generous portions, and the chips fresh & crispy!! Of course, the 8oz salsa topped it off perfectly! WELL WORTH THE WAIT! Sweet young lady multitasking & working tonight, bless her for caring and doing such a great job. Our box was packed so carefully!! Definitely recommend this location even though there's a bit of a wait. We will be back!!!

As today is Cinco de Mayo a Margarita was in order and the house pour was lovely. We shared a bottle of California Sauvignon Blanc to accompany the Ceviche Tatemado followed by the Tacos de Barbacoa which is the Tuesday lunch special. Both the ceviche and barbacoa tacos were just so enjoyable. The striped bass and octopus ceviche here is a unique preparation that sings in the tangy lime and Serrano vinaigrette in which it is prepared. The barbacoa is so flavorful and tender; and the thin, house made flour tortilla is fried crispy on the flat top before being filled. So good.

The outdoor seating is so charming lush plants, colorful flowers, and a peaceful fountain that makes you want to stay awhile. I had the chicken fajita bowl, and it was fresh, flavorful, and hit the spot. The margaritas were definitely tempting but I behaved and stuck with water... next time for sure. Only minor thing, there was water on the floor going into and inside the bathroom, which could be a slipping hazard. A "wet floor" sign would definitely help. Beautiful atmosphere, relaxed vibe. Such a great little getaway in the middle of the day.

    We were recently in Ft Worth and decided to give Joe T Garcia's a try. We had been about 15 years…read moreago and were not impressed then. But we always hear people talk about how great Joe T's is so we thought maybe we just an isolated bad experience 15 years ago. But this time, it was even worse. Maybe people don't speak unfavorably out of fear of being shamed for not praising this "institution"? We arrived on a Wednesday at 5:30 so fortunately our unpleasant experience was not further worsened with a wait. The patio is still very beautiful and umbrellas were positioned to provide ample shade. But the fly situation was very annoying and could probably be helped with the spinning devices on tables or fans spread throughout the patios. The beauty of the patio doesn't compensate enough to endure the flies. The service started out good with waters, chips/salsa brought instantly. But within 15 minutes the service rapidly declined as more customers were seated. It was very tedious to the point of annoying to get refills on our drinks. Literally within 2-3 minutes of ordering we asked our waitress to switch one of the fajita orders from chicken to beef. She initially said "oh I'm sorry but I JUST put the order in". We looked puzzled and said "ok then it shouldn't be a problem changing it?" She went on to explain that she would add the beef to our table and just switch the chicken order to another table next to us who ordered chicken that she had not put in yet. All of that sounded very bizarre but the food was correct when it was delivered our table. At the time the plates were brought we requested a side of sour cream but it didn't come. After 5-10 minutes we spotted our server and requested it from her. But we still never got the sour cream. As I was paying the tab my daughter noticed that we were charged for an extra chicken fajita. So even though the server got the beef fajita added right after we ordered, she didn't take the chicken off the bill. She adjusted it once we pointed out the error. The food was the biggest disappointment out of all of it. I will always give grace to sub par service or atmosphere if the food is great. I say this with the utmost sincerity, I've had more flavorful beef and chicken at Chipotle. The chicken was so dry and served in big chunks which made it even tougher to chew. I seriously could not detect a hint of any seasoning, not even salt. It was very hot but not like the traditional sizzling fajita hot, more like it had been sitting in a heating pan or under heat lamps. For way too long. The beef was a tad bit easier to chew than the chicken but just as bland. The queso that we ordered tasted like canned cheese sauce watered down with chicken or vegetable broth and a tablespoon of pico added. The portion sizes of the entrees, the tortillas, the pico, the guacamole were all very generous. It's just a shame that it doesn't taste good.

They're your typical trendy taco place, with their own selection of merchandise and crazy/cheesy jokes strewn about on t-shirts and signage. They have an ample bar space, but it looked like only one patron was interested in that; the rest of us were there to eat. You order your food at the counter and get a buzzer to come back and pick it up. The staff is friendly enough, but you don't really interact with them much since it's all pretty much self service after you go to the counter. The drink station has cane sugar based sodas; it's a bit heavy on the foam, but otherwise good. We opted for the birria pizza, a couple of cups of pozole, and a side of elote. Everything was solid. The elote was good, not great, but the pozole really hit the spot given how cold it was outside. The birria pizza is what blew me away, though. This was easily one of the most unique, but tasty, things I've ever had. It's not really a pizza, more like a topped quesadilla, but they did a great job of it. I'd not only come back here next time I'm in Fort Worth, I'd be interested in opening a location in Houston if I had the money to franchise it.
