Not flavorful, but always filling. We visit this location because it close to our house. The people are hit and miss friendly, and the food is generally the same, except sometimes you will get WAY overly salted beans. It happens. I wish the food at TC has more flavor, but it is what it is and it's okay when you are in the mood for it. read more

I stopped in to order some tacos for dinner. I ordered the chicken fajita taco. It was literally dry chicken on a small flour Tortilla, nothing else....wth. read more

After spending 20 min in the drive through, with only one car in front of me. I get to the window as i see a guy take his hat off with one hand, scratch his head with the other hand. He then proceeds to make my food with no gloves on. Told the drive thru guy I wanted my $ back and what happened. He closed the window-came back with cash bag...not a word. Food Service 101, gross read more

Getting called into work, I decided to stop by taco cabana for dinner. I tried the flame broiled chicken tacos that they were advertising. When I took a bite from the tacos, I noticed that the chicken was very dry and it had striations that were perpendicular to the length of the meat. I also noticed that the septum that holds both breast's together was oddly apparent in a slice and it lacked in texture. One can only assume that I was eating compressed chicken that is formed into a chicken breast. I'm very disappointed with the direction that TC has taken. read more

This Taco Cabana is consistently the worst in the state of Texas. I've lived near it for 20 years and every time I give it a chance, I'm disappointed. From missing items in the drive thru to employees walking over trash instead of picking it up, this place is awful. If you're thinking of eating here, skip it and visit the one on 183 in the Gateway shopping center. read more

Chicken fajita taco I got after work. Nice that they're open so late, bummer they can't follow their own recipes. This is the chicken "fajita" taco. Dry chicken on a tortilla and nothing else. Nice read more

Taco Cabana - Mexican Near Me - Austin, Texas

Extremely shitty customer service. The lady told me she was the only employee in the entire store. I can only imagine how stressful that is and she's trying to do her best, which is what I assumed the first time I came to get an order. She was short and irritated with me when I ordered but I just assumed she is busy. No worries. She forgot to give me a receipt and I didn't realize until I dropped off the order. If anyone knows favor you cannot complete an order until you put in the receipt. So I call and ask if I can come to the door to receive the receipt and she says no she can't open it I have to go through drive-through. I work in customer service and no matter how busy you are you can always find the time 2 seconds to get to me, even if I need to wait outside for 5 minutes. I have been in the drive through almost 30 minutes just for one receipt. Absolutely terrible. read more

Sitting in the drive thru line for 25 minutes at a FAST food restaurant is totally unacceptable!

I just want some tacos and it smells like ass (literally) and the service is worse if that's possible. Wow.

Omg!! The kick a$$ nachos are delicious! Huge amount of food for the price! Two of us shared them and still had some left over. They need to become a regular on the menu! We haven't been here in a bit due to subpar service, but today, the service was great. We were greeted and assisted by the manager who was friendly, helpful and knew knew his stuff. Huge improvement over prior visits. read more

This place is filthy behind the counter, around the grill and prep station and in the seating area. I will not return to this disgusting loctation. Food was not good at all either read more

I can't even begin to rate this location when it comes to customer service. We have encountered Jasymn on a previous visit in which she delivered our food to the table. She slammed our tray down and didn't say anything. We told the manager and he assured us that she was new and is still learning. The next visit she was at the register, looked at us when we walked in and turned her back and went into the kitchen. She didn't smile or greeting in which we didn't feel welcomed. I didn't choose your job, you did. If you work in the restaurant industry there are times you have to put on your fake smile and be kind for the sake of the guest. I've been in the restaurant industry and know how guest are difficult and the kitchen gets backed up but that is never a reason to take it out on your guests. I don't appreciate her mannerism at all & how unprofessional she is. read more

I think I have the right location-the one at Parmer and Mopac. I ordered breakfast for my team/work and the Latino man that handled my order was so kind and professional and took extra care with my special order- since we have a vegan. I really appreciated it. I didn't catch his name, but on the phone-he said "have a blessed day" if that helps with his identity. What a great employee. read more

The manager Pedro was cleaning when my group came in and was very welcoming and over the top nice. Well done!

This is the worst customer service I have ever experienced... Lucky for them, their food is pretty good. That's the only reason we even put up with the horrendous customer service here. Today we sat in the drive thru line for 30 mins. We sat for 10 mins before anybody even asked to take our order over the intercom. Once we finally came to the window to pay and get our food, the employee didn't care to greet us or even communicate anything to us. She handed us our food and said "that's everything" and didn't say another word. Something needs to change at this location. I have no issues at any other location. THE WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE I HAVE EVER EXPERIENCED!!! read more

Don't you dare ask the window girl for extra salsa. If you do, and she wants to charge you for it, you better not argue with her, because if you do, one of your 2 quesadilla boxes will be empty. So after your drive home, your hungry teens can share a meal instead of each having their own. Completely ripped off. read more

The food quality is horrible. Not only is it usually not fresh and not hot but the size of the Tacos have diminished from a usual 6 inch tortilla to like a 3-4 inch tortilla with what looks like a tablespoon of eggs. I usually like the chorizo but when I can make a taco that is better then ANY Taco Cabana that makes the visit even worst. I always been an fan of TC but seems as if everytime I go through the Fast Food line I receive an under-quality product which makes for a horrible experience. Seems the only way to receive a correct order that is both hot, in size and correct amount of product in the Taco is by going into the store which is not always accesible which is why there is a drive-through option. I would give this store, this business at least 2 hands down. This is the only Breakfast Taco place that I know of. Almost makes me want to open my own Breakfast Taco business which would do better then TC hands down I am sure. Something needs to be done on this horrible experience or this will be spread like a disease with our customers of this business. read more

I got a $10 off coupon from this place in the mail. Being frugal, I decided to use it. This was my second visit ever to a Taco Cabana. The teenager was home on a Friday night (read, the teenager was grounded) so we headed over their last night. We had a bunch of things, but I gotta say it all kinda tasted like slop. And I am fairly certaian I consumed a lot of empy calories. We brought a lot home for the dogs, so they were happy. Next time I'm craving the caories of queso, I think I'll save my money and hold out for Casa Garcia. read more

Staff is always so rude that by the time you finish ordering you feel like you should apologize for taking up the cashiers precious time. When you finally do get your food it's usually wrong but who wants to go correct the matter and risk getting met with more distain. I get that working in food service isn't fun but don't we all hate our jobs? Sometimes the main reason we get paid is because we grin and bear it. read more

I come here often after work. The late night staff is efficient and quick to take your order. Quite simply, it's a fun place to have a late night snack after the bars or whatever you may be doing. This location is always clean and quick with the drive through. Plus, you can get a beer at a fast food joint. I'm a fan. read more

If you want to just have something quickly to eat, go there. I've noticed lately they are improving there food. So give it a try.

Would give it -5 stars if I could. I ordered nachos and a margarita. While ordering the woman exclaimed What time is it! I was slightly alarmed, I told her the time she sad great I get off in thirty minutes! She gave me a number and walked off. No drink not even a thank you. I waited for her to return from back and asked for my margarita she said well I guess I have to make some more! Instead she milked the machine and gave me half frozen something. No didn't even ask. Set it down in front of me and walked away to the back again. I was stunned. I sat down and 5 more minutes pass, finally this young man walks up with a tray of ???? Cold stale chips a drizzle of cold yellow sauce (cheese?) two scoops dried out refried beans a teaspoon of sour cream and a teaspoon of (guacamole?). I was disgusted. So much so I was embarrassed I was actually sitting there. Believe me it got even worse from there. I made a decision yesterday I will never ever be treated like that again EVER by any establishment! My only regret was not taking a picture of the crap I was served. From then on I will loudly display my disgust and revulsion at being treated in such a manner again. Worse Taco Cabana in Austin. Horrible read more

I never go to this location for a few reasons. It used to be because every time I went , my order was either extremely messed up or I didn't get all of my items that I ordered. I went this morning to get a few breakfast tacos before class, which I love. The lady in the drive thru was very fast in taking my order , rushing me to hurry. I get to the window , and didn't know my total because she didn't tell me when she was done taking my order , so I had to get my change together. Then, she throws my bag at me , doesn't give me a straw, and shuts the door on me. I'm sorry your job sucks but don't take it out on the customers. I will never go back unless I absolutely have to. read more

Never again! I went in earlier and tried to order a chicken quesadilla, but the "grill guy" wasn't there. I guess this means that management can't grill simple things. Employees shouldn't tell the customers that, "We're understaffed". It's pretty obvious you're understaffed when there is a line of cars wrapped around the building. After waiting almost a half hour in line, I lost my appetite and just drove off. read more

Some of the slowest service ever. And do nothing for the customer as an apology. 30+ minutes for two entrees.

I go to this TC location frequently. The food is ok and the prices are reasonable, esp if you have a coupon. The salsa bar is good. The employees there are nice, with the exception of one overweight, nasty looking, woman(?), who is no longer working there. I hope my complaints about her didn't have something to do with it. The bad is that it is not very clean sometimes. Tables dirty, food on floor, restroom not cleaned. read more

Awful food! What has happened? Years ago this place was ok (for the price). Now? I went there today and the enchiladas were vomit worthy. I'll not be back. Ever. At all. Even if the food were free, I wouldn't come here! On a higher note, the service was actually tolerable. Not bad like other fast food places. I was pleasantly hopeful that the food might match. It didn't. Good service but TERRIBLE food. read more

Terrible, horrible service!! Would give no stars if possible. It took over 35 minutes when there was hardly any one there. Then when I finally asked and they got to work on our order they burnt the quesadilla and didn't even give me my two fajita tacos. Worst run restaurant! Will NEVER waste my money and time there again! read more

Can I give zero stars? Omg. It's dirty, the employees act like jackasses, the food was bad and the tomatoes or onion or something tasted like bug killer. What a horrible rotten cabana of crap. read more

26 minute drive through... two cars, me bring the second. In a rush? Head to Taco Bell 1 minute away.

They have room for improvement but they have always treated me and my family right! Keep it up!

I'd give negative stars if possible. The cashier was so rude I almost walked out. I don't require smiles or compliments, what I do ask is that you pay me the respect I give to you...which was far from the case here. Too bad since the food isn't awful read more

Meh sums up Taco Cabana. If you have no other quick options and you want Mexican it is at least slightly better than Taco Bell but that is not saying much. Don't ever look inside the place though, it is disgustingly dirty. I have had orders messed up here before but that is pretty standard for a drive thru. read more

My favorite TC. I've only ever visited the drive thru but it is always quick, the employees are always friendly, my order is always correct, and the food is always great. read more

Fast food?! Oh please!! Every single time we come to this place we wait at least 20 mins in the drive thru. It makes no sense. Today we spent 50 mins in the drive thru. I'm not kidding. What is the hold up? How come this happens every time?! This is the worst taco Cabana to go to. Get new employees or hire more. Whatever it is, it needs to change. It totally sucks because you can't even back out of the line when they are taking long. You are stuck and you have to wait. Is that the plan? Fucking unbelievable. And change that to an hour. We are still waiting. Fucking worst place ever. Do not come here. This is my last time. I've had enough!!! read more

What happened to Taco Cabana?!!! It used to be awesome in the old days. Now they spent all that money in the remodel and it just looks corporate. They should have spent it on their workers, as they don't seem too happy in their job, and it shows. Terrible service. I gave it another shot today after a bad experience a few months ago. And they got my order wrong TWICE! In one visit. It sound like maybe the drive through is better, but how difficult is it to get corn tortillas instead of flour on some breakfast tacos? The salsa's are still yummy. But the vibe, at least for breakfast, is not good. I really wonder what happened to this "oldie". read more

This is the worst Taco Cabana I have ever been to and quite possibly the worst fast food joint I have ever been to. I have given then multiple chances and every single time the order has been completely messed up. The last time, I just ordered crispy tacos (thinking they can't mess that up) and when I opened (I live very near), it was a big pile of crap with nothing in the shells (that were soggy) and predominantly lettuce. No one there seems to care. We have actually taken messed up orders to be replaced multiple times, with no apology. read more

I would rather not give a star, a negative would be more like it. The service horrible, the employees are in poor attire, several of them not wearing gloves. The counters and tables are normally dirty, trash on the floors. The fajita meat was like eating beef jerky. Tried the chicken on a different date and it was really dry without flavor. Employees arguing with one another should not be permitted in any kitchen. I have always enjoyed eating at Taco Cabana, but this location needs a makeover/ management change. read more

I like this Taco C. They never mess up my order and they are always quick. Kinda love the salsa ranch with the chicken taquitos. It's my favorite thing ever. read more

Since when does Taco Cabana not serve breakfast after 11pm??? Oh and no frozen margaritas or beers after 11pm? Someone needs to tell Steven Segal to cool it. read more
