    Still the best in Spokane!!! I used to go there as a kid and even worked at the valley location in the early 90's. Great customer service too.

    remember when i have this place 5? that was wrong. the food was terrible. they got the order wrong. i smashed it out of anger.

    As for a soft crispy chicken taco and I get this with a teaspoon of gross Chicken in it charging me $2.79 + tax

    Will never go there again! They gave me a crispy Taco with a teaspoon of steamed chicken when I asked for a soft taco with crispy Chicken it was so gross $2.79 + tax. The boss ball was a joke teaspoon of lettuce I kid you not teaspoon of rice sprinkled with some black beans and they charged me $8.49 + tax. What the hell has happened to Taco John's they used to be a good place not anymore and I will tell everyone everyone about their food. The only thing was the cashier was nice I did not see the food until I got home it was very upset.

    Tater tots beans and what was supposed to be queso but was really just more beans

    Hmmmm? I can't quite figure out what these guys are going for. I ordered beef and chicken street tacos with sides of refried beans, chips, tater tots, queso, and salsa. Where do I start? My kids couldn't even finish the beef tacos which is saying a lot because they love tacos in general... they said they had a strange flavor ‍ oh and, I ordered Street tacos and they came on flour tortillas ( to me this is a huge no-no) The beans were too thick to even swallow and very very dry, the queso was mixed with 3/4 beans and 1/4 cheese- wait what? The chicken tacos were all right but again, they were on flour tortillas. The salsa tasted like it was mostly made with applesauce? Pretty weird... The only thing to really rave about were the tater tots. They were very very good... But why come to a Mexican restaurant to order tater tot's? The guacamole was off the chain but I made it myself when I got home from picking up my order lol! I did order a churro, and it was actually really good so if you come to this taco John's just stick to fried items and you should be happy. I don't think I'll be going back.

    The best fast-food Mexican in town. Nice, clean little restaurant, well worth going out of your way for! I wish there were more of these in town, I would definitely be a regular.

    Boy, How did I miss this place? I've eaten my share of good…read moretacos in my 35 years in Northern California. The counter person wasn't rude, he just didn't smile, and seemed bothered by my speaking Spanish to him. I'm a white-boy "lol", "sometimes" Spanish speaking individuals get thrown off, or don't like it when I speak to them in there/"my" language. I speak it fluently by the way. Grew up in Spain. This young boy responded to me in English . "White boy?...trying to speak Spanish..." The other Mexican individual, the cook; we had a decent conversation in Spanish. This guy works his ass off. He has two jobs and barely sleeps. Very nice guy. This guy made the establishment inviting. I told him his tacos are authentic to Southern California and some places in the northern part. There is a large salsa bar, with mild and very hot sauces, delicious! They also keep fresh cucumbers; which is a nice touch! This was my late night run, it was quiet inside, but orders were being filled via phone calls late at night. 4AM!! I'll be back to try something else on their large, extensive menu. Many individual items and combo plates. I had the crispy tacos (real tortillas); (I am not talking Taco Bell), with carne asada. And paired it with a large pickled Jalapeño! (Free). I drenched the tacos with a habanero sauce. Luckily I had some Pepcid for the burning. It was all worth it... Priced decently. Clean, quiet, with friendly staff. But, It's ok to speak in your native tongue with a "foreigner" when he speaks to you in Spanish! Lesson for the boy.

    The only reason I giving this a 3 star is because my sister swears by this place and goes almost…read moreeveryday. She loves the prices and thinks the customer service is good. She basically drinks the green sauce. I personally would give it a 1 star. I got a shrimp burrito and it was soooo bad. The place smells like bleach. They got my order wrong as well, and so I tried to call them but they answered the phone and immediately hung up every time.

All the salad and produce in their dishes is fresh. My favorite is the Chicken Souvlaki. Cilantro lemon vinaigrette is a must have! Yum:) The restaurant is always kept clean and there's a lot of space inside. I have no complaints about the service. This is a great place to grab a casual dinner or a lunch.

The app for three came with pita bread, falafel, hummus with babaganous, tzatiziki, and dolma. The falafel had a wonderful herby flavor, but was really soft and nearly mushy. The hummus was okay, a nice texture but was just okay. The tzatiziki was herby, a member mentioned it was too sour for her, but another enjoyed it quite a bit. The pita was soft, but just didn't have much flavor and tasted a bit old. I had the gyro sandwich with fries. The food was not hot and the meat lacked charring. The cuts were uneven and the fries were just fries. A member of my party ordered the chicken sharma. The rice was delious! Fluffy and had a wonderful flavor with turmeric and some other spices. Her meat was also cooked nicely, but honestly just lacked flavor. The salads of both the shish kabobs and the chicken Sharma were fresh but had really uneven cuts. The shish kabob meat was beautifully charred however the meat was cool. Also the rice lacked flavor and was only saved by the cliantro lemon vingrette. The drinks were nice. We got cucumber, lemongrass, and hibsus. They were all mild in flavor which paired well with the food. Honestly everything was lacking depth and care.
