Love taco bell. Great prices. Even a homeless person can afford. Drink selection out of the ordinary . Baha blast what. I ordered with the app. Food was ready fast. Outside window very convenient.

Amazing assistance for the people that work there. Salute to the one front desk guy(Hispanic), the woman who greeted us upon walking in (Hispanic) and the main chef guy in the back (fellow African American brother). Please owner give them a raise, they was so gracious and the food came out so quick. About to enjoy it right now while watching football.

It's honestly always been a good location. Recently they have completely switched up the inside, entire remodel. I am hoping with the new look they kept the same amazing employees. Any manager I've ever seen there have ALWAYS had it so undercontroll and atmosphere + food was always "oh I'll be back" able. ! (^o^;)

Friendly staff, they always make me feel welcomed whenever I come in. They are extremely skilled , especially when there's a large rush, they stay motivated and keep a good pace and have positive attitudes despite rude customers.

This is one of the best KFC locations I've experienced in the last several years. The chicken is juicy with a perfect crispy coating, the lobby and visible kitchen area is clean and well maintained and the staff is attentive. I recently downloaded the KFC app and it's great with exclusive specials and deals. I'll certainly be ordering from here again and again. I'll have to try the Tacobell side also. I'm sure it'll also be great. ¡yo quiero!

It is what you expect it to be. There staff are fast and good with customers. Overall its easy usually preþy quick unless the 50 Arabic guys that work for Door Dash that sit on their scooters all day out front come into get orders.

I've always loved their coleslaw I don't know why. As of late for two breasts a small gravy with a biscuit is like $13. Reasonable.

The service was mostly quick, though it got a bit backed up at busy times.

2/8 11:45PM So tell me why half of the staff was being lazy and barely trying to get orders out. The chaser looked like he was high, the workers were already over it and they barely tried to address the wait times for the food. It looked empty. Do not go to this location.

The employees deliberately destroyed our food, it was a delivery order. It all came smashed to pieces, no ingredients in the shells or tortillas and completely inedible. Don’t ever eat at this location.

Worst Taco Bell I’ve been to. The staff seems to hate being there. The food was wrong. Homeless lurking in the corners. This DMV has better service and atmosphere

In a very bad area, no place to sit to enjoy your meal. Very bad vibe here. Service is okay, food is what you’d expect. It’s just the area, so many homeless, drug use and street zombies everywhere. Avoid!

A shamelessly awful taco bell. Food was wrong and not one sauce packet in the bag. Crunchwraps had no tostada shells so no crunch. Don't waste your time or your money here. And never order to go.

Walked in and walked out. Never ordered. This place has no tables. Takeout only. Reflective of the neighborhood. Not what I expected even from a fast food place

Both crunchwraps were almost empty tortillas. Love Taco B, but not this one.

I ordered and paid for 3 Doritos Tacos Supremes and got 3 Crunch Taco Supremes instead. Taco Bell Corporate doesn't count this restaurant as one of their own so I can't complain to them about.

Placed an order via uber. So so much money and additional on fees and top. I made sure that sauces were added to the order. These people still didn’t send . I’ll bring your food back for a god damn refund. Eating taco bell without the sauces is like……. You get my PG point.
