| - Just try to imagine for a minute the sheer joy and excitement I felt when I saw they were putting in a Del Taco basically across the street from me. No longer would I need to drive like 5 mins to get to one. Now I would be able to drive to just barely outside my little neighborhood. I felt like I had won some sort of prize.
When I noticed it was finally open, I went through the drive-thru for lunch. My order was perfect and I had one of the absolute friendliest fast food employees ever. My taco future was so bright, I had to wear shades.
But then I came late at night. And then another late night. And then again for lunch. Easily, three of the worst fast food experiences of my life. My order was wrong every time (and in some cases so completely, almost laughably, wrong). And the service (yeah, yeah, it's a drive-thru - but there's still an element of service) was horrible. Just horrible. I have literally pulled up to the window here and had the employee do nothing but hold out their hand. No mention of the amount. No "hello". No anything. Just holding out their hand. And no "thanks" or any other words at all were spoken either. It was bizarre and, frankly, quite rude. Now, maybe I could overlook that if my order was at least correct. And when the tacos have been correct (but still with other items incorrect), they have little to no meat, crappy lettuce (seemed more like cabbage), and just a teeny tiny little bitty smidge of cheese (like 5 little shreds of cheese). Really? I get that it's cheap fast food, but c'mon now, that was pretty ridiculous.
So tl;dr - First visit was fab. Every other visit has been dismal. You're better off going to the one just a little further away.
