    Bug that was in my crunchy taco

    This was my first and last time trying this place. I was shaking and nauseous from being pregnant, and already had a pick up order here and decided to order some extra tacos to sit and eat in my car to help me feel better. This guy fell out of my taco. Now I'm extra nauseated I should've seen the sticky floors my shoes were sticking to as a red flag...

    This taco time was amazing . Too much to pick for vegans . How about corn soup? Well u come here n u get it. Very healthy n yummy. they have hot spicy sauce which can blow ur mouth so dont dare to try if u are not strong enough to handle spice. Wen i say strong , i mean it guys. Me being indian could handle it but i dont think anyone else could. The whole interior of the restaurant is quite clean n tidy. They serve you on table after u r done placing ur order at the counter. Menu is good. Choice of drinks is not much. A good place to fill ur tummy.

    Very disappointed with the amount of chips I got with my side of guacamole.

    Very disappointed with the amount of chips I got with my side of guacamole. They also forgot my pumpkin seeds and ranch on my Veggie Fit Hit Bowl. Everything still tasted good so I gave 3 stars.

    #1 Soft combo

    Okay, so I've driven by this Taco Time for years and I've never pulled in because I didn't think they had a Drive-Thru. Well they DO! Pulled in last night about 6:30-6:40. I like how they have a menu before you get to the actual speaker. It helped me decide what I wanted to try. Ordered the #1 Beef Soft burrito combo meal. Wait time was fairly fast. I was very pleased with the friendly service. The young man smiled and said Hello, very personable eye contact, a genuine smile as he handed me my order and told me to have a nice evening. Customer Service gets 5 Stars! Now to the food. I'm used to Taco Bell Beef Burrito so I was very surprised how Big and beefy my burrito was! Wow! You definitely get your money's worth! No comparison to Taco-Bell because this place doesn't taste like fast food, more like a burrito you'd make at home. It was hot, fresh and quite Delicious! Those Tots were on the money too!! Warm and crispy! As I'm eating I start readying the burrito wrapping and my drink cup. Very interesting read indeed! They get most of their Ingredients from local farms and they use earth friendly compostable packaging!!! Isn't that a great idea?? I think so! This makes me Smile! Overall a very pleasant experience! I'll be back to try their Tacos!

    Where's the beef?

    Not impressed with tonight's service. We wait for the good fresh food, and it's usually worth the wait but not tonight. The soft taco has more tortilla than meat and cheese and lettuce combined! And is it to be served cold? The fish tacos were made with the bottom fish, the small hard chunks of meat and missing the coleslaw! A two star is given because I do love Taco Time, but if this had been my first visit then it would have been my last visit.

    Mexi-plate

    This is new favorite place for a quick bite! I've been here a few times over the last year, but today we had to best experience! My mom is in town and had never tried Taco Time, I was excited to take her because she swears she has the best Taco place back home in Utah--she was not disappointed! The manager Bryan chatted with us for a few minutes and suggested she try a Mexi plate, it came with a few things for her to try ( a taco, crispy burrito, mexi-fries/tator tots, a salad and beans with cheese melted on them). My mom fell in love with the crispy burrito! She also said the hot sauce beats her place back home!! She refused to say the place as a whole is better than her place in Utah, but settled with its the best place she's had in Washington! I like to get the Chicken taco salad, it is always fresh and tasty! Big chunks or white meat chicken, you can tell that they cook it fresh in the restaurant, unlike those places that boil bags of meat to heat it up and then pass it off as fresh cooked. I live closest to the Taco Time in Lacey, but will always come back to the Tumwater store just for the friendly service that I always get! I have not had a bad experience in Lacey, I've just had superb service here!

    I read a lot of negative reviews, but were staying in the hotel next door so gave it a shot…read more It was actually very tasty and hit the spot, whether or not it's authentic. It was charming inside, and the service was great, unlike other reviews mentioned. My only complaint is that it was cold inside!

    Not great. Let me start off by saying that Plaza Jalisco has always been my go to for Mexican food…read morein the area. There are A LOT of Mexican places to choose from and this USED to be my first choice every time. I have been going here for years but over the last year, every time I go, I tell myself it will be the last. After today, it is truly the last time. 1 - The server, an older lady with black hair, is always grumpy and acts like you are bothering her by asking for basic things like napkins, silverware,etc. She is unfriendly no matter how nice you are. Her name starts with an S but I'm not trying to put her on blast publicly. 2.) The prices are ridiculous. I know everything has gone up but 19.00 for a bowl of tortilla soup? 22.99 for a lunch sized portion of Polla ala Crema? I paid 29.22 today for polla ala crema and a soda that was never refilled. There was 3 ounces, at best, of chicken on the plate. 3.) Refills are practically non existent now. My cup sat empty for most of my meal and the server never came back to check on us so I never received a refill.paying 3.50 for one glass of soda is ridiculous. 4.) We ran out of salsa but there was no offer for more, like most mexican restaurants offer. 5.) The restaurant is always cold, not sure if they are trying to save on electricty but it is noticeably cold in there. The polla ala crema is very good and it is what has had me coming back but I just can't fathom spending almost 30.00 (without the tip) for lunch for one person for such small portions and terrible service. It was a good run, Plaza. I do wish you well, but judging by the empty parking lot every time I have been there in the past year, I am guessing things aren't great. It might be the prices. Or the service. Either way, best of luck.
