Food is ok. Prices keep climbing. They need to put more cheese and meat on their items considering their prices. Their win, win is always the potatoes ole. Staff is friendly here and they don't mind telling you their specials and what can save you money. That's a plus. Lots of seating and the place is clean except during rush. read more

Taco John's is what it is. Better than Taco Bell, but not Del Taco. I love the taco burger here. The taco and soft taco are also good. My wife and I had one of each. We also got some chips and cheese dip. The cheese was hot and very good. Here, they fill up the cup. It's nice. The restaurant is very clean! Super nice and well kept. The bathroom too. So refreshing to see pride in work. This location is on Noland right off I-70. Easy to get to. The staff is also excellent! The manager too. You can tell she has an excellent attitude. We will return. read more

Taco John's - Original Taco - Mexican Near Me - Independence, Missouri

I feel like I have been missing out. There isn't a Taco John's anywhere near my home, but if this place is any indication of the yummyness, then how can any other fast food texmex place compete? Have I eaten Taco John's before? I'm sure I have... but it's been years enough that I can't remember. The staff was friendly and helpful (especially since I wasn't sure what to order). The menu was fairly simple, which I appreciated. The place was clean and well lit and well stocked. We went a bit later than the dinner rush, but there was a steady stream of people and drive through traffic. We got our food, and, well, yum! After a day of working on a home renovation, it was just the carby protein goodness that I needed! I messaged a friend a picture, and their first response was "potato oles!!" I honestly thought they looked like the round coin shaped tater tots from a public school lunch I might get with my kids, but they tasted oh so much better than that! I recommend! If you want a quick yummy slightly-messy carby protein meal, then go here! read more

Taco John's - Mexican Near Me - Independence, Missouri

We stopped at this location for lunch with great anticipation for a nice meal (the Blue Springs location was closed for good over a year ago) I was craving a Taco Bravo. I ordered one and a taco burger. What I was served was not even what would call edible!!! The taco burger had apparently shrunk by 2 full inches in diameter... darn the pesky economy. Not sure when it shrank, perhaps during the pandemic, or after the elections... who knows. No matter, it was not only quite smaller than I remember, but it was cold, the bun was wrinkled & tough - as though It spent one too many minutes in the microwave; and the meat was non existent. A sorry excuse for a sandwich of any type. The Taco Bravo, wasn't "bravo" at all... it was a cold, cracked total mess. The only edible food item was the side of Potato Oles we'd ordered. At least they were hot and fresh. This place was a huge disappointment! And by the way... when we entered the lobby, we'd noticed that half of the tables were all stacked against the front windows of the dining area, and the chairs were placed upside down on top of those tables. I wondered if they were even open. I do not recommend stopping at this location at any time. Hopefully soon, they'll identify and resolve all these issues... otherwise, I doubt they'll stay in business here very much longer. read more

When out of town we like to try something new...weather its fast food or restaurant. Service was good, place is clean and freezing cold...as for the food...when your really hungry it works....would be much better if they could crisp up the burrito. Potato rounds were good. read more

Taco John's - Mexican Near Me - Independence, Missouri

The food here is absolutely the best fast food Mexica, in the area. The food has a great fresh taste. The prices are about the same as Taco Bell's, but the quality is 100% better! For one the meat is not dripping grease. The service is fantastic and the restaurant is spotless. A great place to dine! read more

Not sure how they did it but they are worse than Taco Bell. Meat has weird flavor. And the rainbow guy at the window with dark hair has an absolutely terrible attitude. read more

Service was excellent and the food is always amazing!!! Very friendly and clean!!! Definitely will come back to this location and eat some more good food!!! read more

Stopped at the Taco Johns on Noland at 1pm on a Friday, but Ive stopped here numerous times when Im in the area. Today they were super rushed and short staffed, so i just kinda hung out a bit while they struggled in the kitchen. My mobile order was ready quickly, and the food was served nicely. It could have been a bit warmer. The lobby was pretty clean, especially as short-staffed as they seemed today. This is one of the few places where you can find Cherry Pepsi in the fountain. Overall, compared to other fast tex-mex chains in the area, you'll probably have a decent experience here. read more

Taco John's - a burrito and a drink on a table - Mexican Near Me - Independence, Missouri

I love this place. The food has always been fantastic. Hot and fresh. Staff is always friendly and helpful. They need to take it easy with the air temp in there. Always super cold but the place is clean and taken care of. read more

No potatoes in the Steak and Potato Griller and No Warm Nancho Cheese in The Crunchy Beef burrito. Both were about half the size of the picture. read more

Below is a photo of what $6 gets you at Taco John's. Food was overdone and tasted awful. Also customer service is non-existent. Might as well just go to the McDonald's next door read more

Taco John's - Chicken meal - Mexican Near Me - Independence, Missouri

Decided to stop here with my family on my road trip across the country. I had chicken boss burrito it tasted like a chipotle burrito was kinda disappointed. My parents loved their tacos and burrito supremes. Next time I'm driving across the country maybe I'll give it another try. read more

If I could give this place a 0 star I would. This place is a rip-off of your money and the quality is lousy. If only I was able to go back. Paid $6+ dollars on a Chicken Taco Salad. What I paid for was for about 2 cups of shredded lettuce, a pinch of cheese, 5 -6 cubes of cold chicken and 2 tablespoons of salsa in a tortilla bowl. I am very disappointed in the loss of my hard working money I have to get up and go to work for. I literally had to go home and add more money (in ingredients) to a product I already paid for. Taco Bell really has it better on you and will head there next time. Make it right and I might come back. Keep it wrong and of course I will be spending my hard earned money elsewhere. A customer should never receive this kind of quality of food service. read more

I'm a die hard Taco John's fan. Forget about Taco Bell and Taco Bueno. Taco John's is the only fast food taco place I need. I wish one would open up in the Johnson county area. Like OP or Mission. I need one closer to home!! The food was tasty and fresh. I ordered my burritos with no cheese and they arrived with no cheese! I usually go into fast food restaurants expecting any "customized" orders to be wrong once delivered, so this was a pleasant surprise. The potato oles were perfectly seasoned and crispy. This is important since potato oles are what make TJs stand out. The staff was friendly. My family's order was correct and they delivered it to our table. The place was clean when we were there. It was during the lunch hour, so it was busy. I didn't notice any dirty tables or empty salsa containers. The staff was keeping up with the rush pretty well. I'll definitely be stopping in again next time I'm in this part of the world. :) read more

It had been YEARS since I had Taco Johns and I was pleasantly surprised at how good my chicken quesadilla was. I loved the mexi rolls with sour cream and the potato oles in cheese sauce. Friendly service here and my order was all correct. I'll be going back a lot more often! read more

In general, the food itself is fine, but these people can't get an order right to save their lives. I've had to come back twice to get missing items or the correct food. My order has not been read off correctly the past several times I've gone. They rush you through the drive-thru every time. It's mass confusion if you ask for a drink when ordering your combo. I'd recommend driving a little farther to the next closest location if you need a Taco John's fix. read more

This location has gone down hill as far as food quality. The last two times we have eaten there, we ordered taco burgers with sour cream, the buns tasted like they were at least a week old. They were stale and the bottom of the bun was chewy. We also ordered potato oles , they were over cooked and tasted old. They didn't give us sour cream although I paid for it. t. We ended up throwing out all of our food. We will not be eating there again. So disappointed!! read more

Good customer service food was good and hot . They made sure the triple check are order to make sure it was correct .

First impressions: No welcome, no hello and it was cold enough in there to hang a side of beef. So we ordered, get a number and sit down, we are the only people there and it takes a reasonable amount of time to get our food, I finally asked the young man who brought it is there anything that can be done, and my exact words "it's cold enough to hang a side of beef". He said I will find out how to take care of it. Not real impressed with the food, I literally could count the strands of cheese on the tacos for 2 tacos it was less than 10, my wife chose the street tacos she said it was okay. The food was okay at best, would I go back ? Well I will say it wouldn't be my 10 or 11th choice read more

Food. Not bad. The cleanliness of this facility, every time I go in, there is ALWAYS an abundance of dirty tables and the floor is a wreck. Everytime I go in as well, there is always SOMEONE who is just standing there, why can't they be cleaning tables? So, just be prepared to take your food with you if you want to sit down and eat. read more

Love the taco burger. It's not on the drive thru menu but just ask for it. I have eaten at TJs for years. Glad they are this close to me.

Restaurant is very busy and hectic due to grand opening - but the staff is keeping the lines moving and food was very good. Tacos and potato ole's were outstanding. Large dining room with tv's. Will go back as soon as lines settle down a bit read more

I'm seriously addicted. I don't know how many times I've ate here over the last couple of weeks. Can never go wrong with 6 pack and a pound, extra seasoning on oles-with cheese on side of course. Mexi rolls are always great too. Husband loves their taco burger. Everything here is mouth watering. read more

This was one of the worst experiences I've had. They failed to put the entire order on the bag, and when I called to inform them and see what options I had for the missing burrito, the manager said "talk to me like an adult, I'm not a child" and hung up. Now I spoke to her the way two adults would, and calmly. She simply could not take responsibility as she focused on how they were right and I was wrong about a coupon. When I said, let's focus on the missing item and forget about the coupon, she screeched at me and then hung up. Unprofessional and childish. She refused to even answer the phone when I called back. Will NEVER return to this location. They desperately need an adult in charge. read more

I will take Taco Johns over Taco Bell ANY day! I love everything they got and I especially love the potato oles and the meat and potato burrito. If you use their app you will get some nice deals and/or free stuff. read more

The food took 25 minutes for our dine in experience. They forgot a nacho cheese in our order. I took the receipt up to the manager, Carol who proceeded to argue with me and I had to buy another side of cheese for .80. The food was mediocre and I can promise we will never be back thanks to Carol and her atrocious customer service. read more

Nice.fast.friendly service. I wish there were more Taco John's in this city as the 2 closest ones are a bit of a drive from my place. This is by far the best fast food taco joint in KC. read more

Taco John's - Mexican Near Me - Independence, Missouri

Love TJ's and this location was very good. Had the Taco Burger and Potato Ole's and both were very good. Good service too.

Staff are unprofessional and rude. Food is subpar compared to other taco johns locations. McDonald's is better, faster, and way cheaper.

Great food and service. Navarrio was the best. Stop in for an enjoyable meal. Love the tacos and the self serve drinks.

I am really impressed with this location. Not only with the food but how nice the staff was. Not only were they nice to me, but they were concentrate to each other. Which was nice to see for once in a fast food enviroment. I will for certain go back!! read more

Very excited to learn there's finally a Taco Johns within reasonable distance from my house. I grew up on the fast food chain! I must say I was disappointed in the final product. The taste of the food from any other location is noticeably different. This is my second time trying this one out and consistently bland food is the result. Any true fans, I would suggest a different location for you! read more

Yuck. Tried it not coming back. Clean and friendly. Food was nasty. It was hot was hot and fresh. Still nasty
