Quit going to taco John's a few years ago because of the lack of meat they had in their taco's. Today was taco Tuesday so we decided to give it a try again. Well to our surprise the taco's had a nice helping of meat in each one, touch of cheese and lettuce. So glad they amped up the meat mixture. Now for the cons: the thing about these tacos the bottoms got soggy quick and if you don't eat fast enough bottom will fall out. Probably would have been better if we ate in but we had take out and a 5 mile trip home . Lettuce had the strong taste of bagged lettuce. Could have used more cheese some didn't even have cheese. But for taco Tuesday lunch and $1.39 each they were worth it. Will be back for more. They also have 2 new fish items on the menu a burger...yes a fish burger at a taco fast food place, VERY GOOD, Extremely soft fresh bun (possibly potato bun), lettuce, and a mayo or mayo based tartar sauce, nice portion of crispy fried Alaska pollock. Very good. They have Alaskan pollock taco's as well, that we didn't try. Burger was $5.99 which is a little pricy I think, maybe $4.99 be better for this but hey! Who knew!!! Would definitely want to buy again but not sure for the $5.99. No picture of taco's but did the fish burger read more

If you're in a rush don't go here. You'll be waiting almost an hour for your food. Drive thru system is outdated and SLOW.

We love it here. The employees are fun and friendly (and helpful!) It's the spot for tacos in Bemidji, both doordashing and taking out. Hands down my favorite fast food in Bemidji read more

I've been eating taco Johns since I was a kid and I now live in Bemidji so I decided to try their taco Johns. Our food did not seem super hot and the potato olés tasted like they had been out sitting for awhile. About two hours later I start having serious bowel problems and now my boyfriend is puking. read more

Drove up and got ready to order my food, it was 9:40pm and the person on the speaker tells me they're closed. I replied telling him it says online they stay open until 10pm. He replies "well we decided to close early because... um... yeah." Seriously?! You've got to be kidding me!!! 20 minutes! All I wanted was a burrito. It would NOT KILL YOU, to make one damn burrito!!! I hate the staff. False advertisement. Should post on their site, "open until we feel like closing, just because, um, yeah." read more

This place needs a power wash from top to bottom. Pictures barely do it justice. The food was fine, and service okay. Just woefully dirty place! read more

This place was not so great customer service wise. We went through the drive through and have some "rugged" (or as Alex G. Said, looks like they were just let out of jail) looking women take our order. She greets us by saying in a monotone voice "what would you like" and then we go to the window and she doesn't say anything at all, just puts out her hand and takes the credit card, followed by "it'll be out in a few minutes".. mind you we were already sitting at the window for 5-10 minutes even before seeing her face with little to no other customer traffic before hand. If I was managing this place, she'd need to be either fired or shape up her attitude and do it fast! Not impressed with the service at all. I will be filing more complaints. read more

Disappointed is an understatement. My meal was cold, the taco meat was cold, the soft shell was hard, potato oles were stale and soggy and cold. The worst meal I've ever had. Taco johns has always been my favorite place to eat when in Bemidji, never again. read more

They're drive thru was pretty busy so I decided to go inside I stood in line for like ten minutes before some one told me that the lobby was closed and only drive thru was open and I saw others inside eating at the time I know they were really busy and under staffed but it's just ridiculous that I wasted my time standing in line just to get told that I'm usually happy with my service there I go there quite often but after that I don't think I'll be going there for awhile if your going to close your lobby put a sign up or lock the doors so people won't waste their time read more

This place is an absolute disaster. I stopped in, while I was rushing through town, and was looking for a quick bite to eat. Never again. Staff seemed dis-interested in helping any of the customers. Seems like the wives/girlfriends of a few of the staff were hanging around - and the staff was more interested in chatting with them. Took forever to get my order in and took even longer for the food to arrive. Avoid this place if you are looking for a quick bite to eat. read more

Terrible customer service if you can even call it customer service. Really it's just people walking up to the till and staring at you until you're uncomfortable enough to place an awkward order and then stand there for 45 minutes wondering when someone is going to start making that order. read more

Gross. Dirty building. Dirty employees, this place needs to be shut down it is disgusting. Last time I took my children there was a homeless man that wouldn't leave us alone. We were visibly uncomfortable as he kept asking for a ride as I'm with my children 3 and 5 years old. Employees did nothing to help I will not be back. Also the food used to be good now you get a cold sloppy mess- which is exactly how I would describe the employees and establishment. Tear it down and start over. read more

Food is great always, but the employees go out for smoke breaks to their cars which is located right next to the drive thru, so you can see the workers smoking. Doesn't seem like an appropriate place for workers to be parking or smoking. Very unsanitary read more

The staff were swearing while we were looking at the menu. Then it took 5 min. before we were helped and the food was old and cold. My wife works at a Taco John's part time and this place made her sick to her stomach. We highly recommend NOT eating here even if it's your last resort. The staff needs to be fired and replaced in my opinion cause their only there for a paycheck. We will be back in 1 year and if it's the same we will call headquarters. read more

The absolute BEST Mexican fast food in town! Their breakfast burritos are fresh, not reheated, and the best I have tasted any where!

Rude staff, very slow service staff and you need to remind them to get your meal drink. Fairly busy place, would be a great spot for a good restaurant. read more

I went there yesterday and this guy named Walter was really rude to me. I was asking for a burrito and he said we don't do that here.

I love the Doritos locos, that's what brought me to Taco Bell in the first place. However, I spent at least 20 minutes in line for the drive through at lunch time...and there is no way to exit once you are in the queue. They have lost my business. read more

if i could give zero stars i would....rude rude rude staff...screwed up on my total...when i questioned the five dollar discrepancy i was treated like i was the one at fault. clerk practically threw the bag out the drive thru window at me! never ever going back...oh...and relayed this experience to a friend who works at an emergency youth shelter and was informed of the heroin dealings going on there as told by the youth she helps...shady, rude and not a boon for business! read more
