Service extremely slow. Especially when eating inside. Rice way undercooked. Even crunchy. People waiting a long time to get their food.

Taco Cabana was one of my favorite places to eat when I lived in San Antonio 30+years ago. I tried one in Dallas a few years ago and was very disappointed. I hoped that one farther South might be better. Unfortunately not. Its not terrible but its cheaply constructed fast food and cheap fast food quality. It used to be authentic Mexican food that was done quickly and tasted really good. No more. I guess like most places that grow bigger the food just can't keep up with the same quality. Oh well. If you want good Mexican food you need to find a small, non-chain type restaurant. Service was friendly and fast. Ambiance is tired and old. I guess Im done with them for good. read more

I stopped here last night and picked up an online order. I was very disappointed when I got home. I ordered the beef fajita taco combo it literally had tree very small pieces of meat. I also ordered three bean and cheese tacos and they hardly had anything in them. I spent $16 and was still hungry after eating that. Y'all have to do better than that! Not to mention how small the tortillas were! read more

Taco Cabana - My thumb is in the photo to show how small the tacos were! No i'm not a giant! - Mexican Near Me - Kyle, Texas

Wait for my meal for over 15 mins and only 4 people working here what the hell they doing!!! Being so sloth or what

Usually a good quick Mex food if I don't wanna go to a restaurant and dine in. Today I got the loaded fries w carne asada. Very good. Only wish there was a larger order. Will def get again. Also grabbed 3 carne asada tacos. Meat was great. The corn tortillas tho tasted as maybe they were not heated up and broke on me. read more

In full disclosure before I moved to Texas in 2021, I'd never heard of Taco Cabana so I was kind of excited to visit even though no one ever recommend it to me. Taco Cabana is located in a safe location off of I-35 with an easy to enter and exit location. This facility has average speed to order as they always have a line but the employees are pretty nice. As far as sides go, their chips and queso are serviceable but I'm not a fan of queso especially lower quality queso than a sit-down establishment. It tastes like a Velveeta knock off with spices added in. The refried beans are about the same, however my stomach seemed to be unhappy with that decision. While I thought the Mexican Rice was good in flavor it was overcooked and gummy. Their soft drinks are much like any other chain so I don't have much to add other than they serve adult beverages? I haven't tried one but a drive thru with alcohol is a novel idea to me. The nachos were weak in that I was expecting more as it had a small portion size for the price. Moreover, they use a lot of cheap ingredients (chips & beans) to fill you up while the meats and guac on the steak fajita nachos were sparse. It was decent but good if the mindset recalls this is drive-in fair. The shredded chicken taco wasn't too bad. At least the chicken was seasoned and you can pick your toppings which is a plus. My favorite was probably the double crunch pizza with ground beef. I added lettuce and, in my opinion, this helped the product taste a bit better than without it as it added a nice texture. As for the burrito, the steak fajita was ok but don't go thinking it will be as big as those two other burrito-centric options out there. That said it wasn't bad. Overall, I view Taco Cabana as a step up from the other place you might be thinking about. While it's not earth shattering in terms of quality, the price is more or less budget friendly and certainly better than the other place I didn't mention. The staff here are nice and will fill your order quickly in the drive-thru. To wrap it up, I've been twice but haven't been back in years, nor do I feel compelled to do so with other superior options available. read more

After 30 minutes of waiting we only got our food after complaining at the counter and asking for a refund.The cashier dropped the F bomb on another customer repeatedly in front of the manager and she did nothing to stop her. The music was blasting. The manager decided it was more important to call the online service and discuss the previous customers order than to give us our refund after 40 minutes of waiting. read more

I visited Taco Cabana for my first time. I found the restaurant to be small and charming. The service I received was fast. The food, excellent. I ordered two street tacos, equalling a total of six soft tacos on corn torts. The prices are not too expensive. SUPPLEMENTAL. I ate two tacos before work. I ate the other four at dinner while at work. Immediately after dinner, I had to literally run to the restroom. And again after that. My stomach was so upset that I had to leave my job five hours before the end of my shift. All I can say is, be careful what you order. I can't say all the food will cause diarrhea, but the street tacos surely caused me a lot of discomfort. I won't be returning. The symptoms reminded me of Taco Bell. Lol Another restaurant I would never go back to. read more

My boyfriend has never eaten at Taco Cabana before since we lived in Hawaii and there's not one. This was his day to try it in person. At this specific location, there's never anyone inside. We wanted to give it a shot for ourselves. The steak quesadilla wasn't too bad! He ate a really big burrito and it was just alright. The Mexican rice was a bland. The chorizo and egg taco was tasty. Overall, it was just an alright meal. He was just happy to check this place off his list of places he tried before. read more

Well, after I realized that I didn't reorder my salsa with "buy again", I find my "update" of adding salsa to my existing order "refused". Thanks guys/gals, for making this a memorable experience, for the wrong reasons. read more

The meat was dry. I couldn't even recognize that it was Carne Asada. It was flavorless. The corn tortillas were hard. The only good part was the cheese in the quesadilla and it was only good because they put cheese in it. So I'd have to write the soda pop was the best and the food two thumbs down. They get a D minus for no flavor and stale tasteless food. I don't know what happened to this location. They used to be good 10 years ago! Now I know never to come back. There's too many other better choices in this area to eat at in Kyle. read more

Taco Cabana has really gone done hill we spent $30 for two people on a takeout order and were very disappointed never again

Haven't been here in a couple of Months but today dinner was pleasant.... Had chips and queso ( this is why I show up here) but I had street tacos ( asada) ..... it hit the spot with an ice cold beer, Thanksssss read more

I used the drive through since I had a "Holideal" using their app as a rewards member. The app at first wasn't allowing me to use their daily deal of buy one breakfast taco , get one free. Aka BOGO. So I was able to verify my email address, their offers were going into my junk mail. Once I activated the offer, I told the cashier of the app offer BOGO. The order was originally $12 and some change. I gave my phone to the cashier so she could scan the offer, but it appears she manually entered the coupon, otherwise it would've came out to $6 something vs $9.47. Taco Cabana is just another word for gimmick. Their potato and egg tacos taste like old nasty grease, yuck! I'd give them away too. read more

We've ordered 3 breakfast boxes this past week and they were all great, although one time they forgot to provide the pico we ordered. Food was hot and the staff were friendly. Salsa was excellent. Can't expect too much more for $1.50 tacos! read more

$2 margs to go with purchase of food. Can't beat that when you also order their chips and queso! Now they have expanded their margarita flavors-12 I think. We got the standard lime then went totally crazy with the mojito, watermelon and MANGO NADA & CHAMOY!!!! OMAIGAAAAAA they were delicious and refreshing on a hot July day. Plus, they also have curbside pick up if you don't want to go through the drive thru! How can you go wrong? Hit em up! read more

You guys I realize this place doesn't have the best reviews but when we went here we had a great experience. First I just wanted to give a shout out to Felix. He was an elderly man that worked there and he was the sweetest person. I feel like he deserves a raise. He did so much to make sure our order was right and was also really fast. Most fast food places the employees don't care, but you could tell that this guy really cared about his job. Lastly the food was actually damn good. Idk why we waste time going to Taco Bell when Taco Cabana is so much better. They have beyond meat now which is an amazing option for anyone that's vegan or vegetarian. They also have alcohol which is nice. My favorite thing here are the sopapillas. They are so fresh and warm. Next time I think about Taco Bell I'm just going to go to Taco Cabana instead!! read more

On 10/30/24 @ 4:11pm I went in to place an order for 3 beef tacos, lg quesadilla , plain fries, mexican pizza, medium pico and a nacho. We received our number and sat down waiting for our order. There were a Hispanic couple sitting and eating when we order and me and my son. Moments later an Hispanic family of 4 came in to order. As my son and I sat there waiting on our order, the family that came in after us began to receive their order as they were dinning in. I noticed it was taking a while so I asked the employee (Cynthia) that took my order how much longer, by this time it was 4:50pm. She rushed to check and came out with my order at 4:55pm. I checked my order to make sure everything I paid for was in the bag. Low and behold I was missing the quesadilla and the medium pico. I went to the register and stood there another 5 to 6 min while your staff stood in the back playing as if they shouldn't be watching for customers are assisting the customers that were in your establishment. Another customer came in as I was standing there and he decided to leave because the wait was to long just to place an order. I noticed a young lady standing at the drive-though, I said excuse me twice no one answered. I repeated excuse me again , and the drive-though person YELLED at me and said I AM BUSY. I said excuse me!! She later to find out she is the person YOU hired to manage the store Kassandra!! She WAS so Rude so so RUDE to me and then John ( blonde head heavy set boy) comes from the kitchen to also argue with me and called me out of my name. I was the ONLY Black person in that store and I felt discriminated against and will absolutely take this complaints and treatment about your upper management level. I want a call from Kassandra's boss and the boss over her boss!! I will make sure that her very poor customer service and John never treat another person that visit that store in Kyle get the same rude and poor service that they offered. read more

Went through the drive thru and realized when I got home that I was missing part of my order. I called and spoke to Nery on my way back and he was very friendly and professional. They immediately made it right and I think that is great customer service. Keep it up Nery!! read more

Much better than the Taco fast food next door. I had a chicken fajita platter and it came with steak. Oh well, it was pretty good anyway. I really enjoy Taco Cabana's rice & beans. Not as good as real fresh food from a Mexican restaurant, but it is awesome when I'm in a hurry. I also grabbed a strawberry margarita. It was pink but tasted more like lime. A pro-tip: They put the alcohol in a airport bottle, so make sure to mix it before you drink half of it. Not that I did something like that.... read more

Taco Cabana - Great steak fajita platter. Margarita was a bit small, should have ordered two. - Mexican Near Me - Kyle, Texas

We'd eaten elsewhere for dinner but wanted some cheap alcoholic drinks to take home with us, LOL. It was getting late... 950PM, but we were pleased to see that Taco Cabana still had its drive-thru open, even though it was ten minutes 'til close! The girl operating the drive-thru was very friendly and chipper. Unfortunately they were out of prickly pear and a couple other flavors, but I'd needed an excuse to try the strawberry mango (and mmm, I was glad I did!). We were even given a freebie item in our to-go bag because they were closing soon and knew it was better to give stuff away than to simply throw it away. =) read more

Diarrhea inducing. Steak fajita taco was literally just strips of salty, over processed gas station quality steak. The egg and beans taco was slimy. Sure, the service is fast and you get hot food but it's overpriced and will make you sick. read more

This was my first time going inside Taco Cabana, and it will be my last. I was picking up an online order. I stood there for 5-7 minutes before being acknowledged by the employee named Cassandra. I gave her the name, and sat down to wait. I waited 25 minutes, then when I asked for an update she said "our tortilla machine just broke, so we have to cancel your order." I said "I've been here 25 minutes, why was the order not done already if the machine just broke?" She got a horrible attitude with me (and everyone else inside) and said "Just sit yourself down you white b*tch." She then started screaming at everyone that "I just f***ing work here" and their orders have to be cancelled. Hopefully management takes action because her behavior was horrific. read more

I visit this Taco Cabana frequently and every time it's a different experience depending on the time of day. I would recommend going during the day before 3pm. They seem to be a little more organized and the cabana bowls taste better. read more

Slow and unorganized Worst Taco Cabana ever Avoid at all cost. Terrible service. Dirty and slow. Long wait for wrong order. I will never eat at this TC again read more

Great fast food restaurant. The food is great and the inside eating area is clean and usually quiet. The service is good. The WiFi is better than most restaurants in the area. read more

I wasn't expecting much because we've had bad experiences in the drive thru, but our Taco Bell has been closed lately. But this food was totally inedible. Cold, soggy nachos, a taco that looked like it was leftover from somebody's fridge, and they left off the pico, guacamole, and salsa. It's like they threw some old food in a bag and threw it out the drive through window. Someone send the Health Department, because from the looks of the food, I'm sure they are violating tons of health codes too. Close this place down! They take your money and give you trash in return! read more

First of all the margaritas tasted like something you clean a bathroom with, the salsa tasted like a bale of hay, and the service was basically an act of terrorism. Also about an hour after the Yellowstone caldera erupted out of me. If pain and suffering had a flavor this is it. read more

Be careful when you order the duo tacos because it confuses the staff. Especially when you order 2 dúo taco orders. They charge you for both orders and give you one order. This is the second time this has happened in a matter of a month. The staff got upset because I complained to her about the order being wrong. It just so happens that she was the one who checked the order. Obviously they cannot count. They also have staff walking around with no head covers In the cooking area. read more

Can you give ZERO stars?? This location in Kyle TX is absolutely horrible and if you get your order wrong you better hope they are not leaving for their other jobs where they can't "wait around" for you even though you just left to have you order fixed. They closed at 10:30 PM Instead of 12 AM due to no staff. Ridiculous.. thankfully the San Marcos TX Location was willing and able to help me. Please stay as far away as possible from this location please!! read more

How about considering your paying customers for a change? Your salsa or should I say flavored water is pathetic. The only thing that makes it look like salsa is the tinted red color. Very clear the only thing on your mind is the bottom line. read more

Wow. It's hard to express my disappointment of this place. I ordered two each of their tacos. None of them were wrapped in foil; they were just kind of laid in foil and dropped in a paper sack. This picture shows the contents of a $2.49 taco. If I had spare change, two Quarters would cover the contents in this tortilla I'm glad the other locations are not like this. read more

So the restaurant is at 25% allowance for inside dining due to Covid. It is close to that % after I sat down. But there are still a couple of empty tables. Two ladies walk in only to be told they have to wear a mask to enter. How are you supposed to eat with a mask on . Makes no sense. Salsa bar is empty. Ask for some pico and salsa verdes. They only have red salsa and whomever is filling the little Jell-O shot containers is skimping on it. Come on now, y'all can do better. Drinks are all coming from the back because apparently it is now unsanitary to have a fountain dispenser for public use. Finish my average tasting meal and go up to the counter to get a drink refill. Only to be told we no long offer refills. I walked out speechless. Just cannot believe that is how they are trying to run their business. read more

I love me some Taco Cabana! I usually go with an 8 oz order of refried beans and an 8 oz order shredded cheese, a bean and cheese taco with extra cheese (I'm a cheese addict and not afraid to yelp it from the rooftops!), or the bacon egg and cheese taco. Mmmmmm .... However, this particular TC location has a LOT of work to do on work pace/production. Not sure if they are always short staffed due to employees calling in, fully staffed and management is doing a poor job of staffing needs, or they need a stronger manager. The service is super slow. The best tip is go through the drive thru. It's usually almost a 20/30 min wait dinning in at rush hour. You'd think you're eating at Chili's or something. (Chili's may have a shorter wait time) I ordered a bean and cheese taco for breakfast heading to work one morning. Unfortunately I did not have time to check my bag that morning (which I shouldn't have to, but at this place it's a must before leaving the drive thru). The amount of beans and cheese in the tortilla was comical. I cannot believe I even paid for it. Needless to say I was highly disappointed. I really hope they can turn it around. I love me some TC and would really hate to lose the option so close to home due to horrible service. The only reason for two stars is because my love for TC is that strong! read more

They were being excessive on time to deliver so I asked an employee of they have my food ready. 10mins later. I look at my order, none of the tacos are labeled. I ask how am I suppose to know what's what? ,"well you wanted your order". She then took it back. NOOPE! Never going back to that place. read more
