| - What happened, Taco Bell? We used to be friends!
Contrary to what most people have claimed, I've never had any issues at 67th Ave and Happy Valley. The drive thru lane is rarely clogged, they've never made mistakes with my order, and the staff has always been very polite.
And then, it's like everything changed - like a soccer Mom attempting to reinvent herself after being freshly divorced and looking ridiculous as a result.
I'm not sure entirely what happened. Either they hired one imbecile to run the kitchen who can't get orders correct, or the crew seems to get their kicks from seeing how many consecutive screw-ups it takes before a customer reaches his or her breaking point.
During my last three consecutive orders, my taco supremes (which I pay extra for) were discovered to be nothing more than regular tacos. Three consecutive times! I mean, do I really have to literally unwrap every single item at the window just to ensure that they didn't screw it up?
If they're not out of Baja Blast, then it often ends up being flat. I've learned to taste my drink immediately to identify if this is the case, but when calling it to their attention, they only offer to give me something else rather than actually switch out the container with a new one - which would require too much work on their part. Hell, maybe I should just offer to go back there and do it myself next time.
Once I smartened up to their error-prone ways, I've started discovering their mistakes before actually leaving. Although despite requesting that they fix the errors, the food still ends up being incorrect. Additionally, their cinnamon twists seem to lack actual cinnamon. They also have a 50% chance of tasting like chemicals due to the employees not changing out the cooking oil when it's required.
It's gotten so bad that if I do want Taco Bell, I'll go out of my way to the one on Pinnacle Peak Road just to reduce the likelihood of the constant mistakes that they keep making here.
Avoid!
