Taco Bell

I come here a few times a month during the early morning hours when I’m running late for work. The $ 1 Sausage Breakfast Burritos are my go-​to. Cheesy and filling. Be careful when eating while applying hot sauce and driving a manual transmission vehicle. It can get very difficult. Two burritos and you are stuffed. The coffee is very weak even when just one creamer.
I’ve also ordered the bacon variety as well but its too salty for my taste. Eat them right away before they get cold.

Dude. Duuuude. Something is seriously wrong, WITH THE CUSTOMERS. Sometimes I get off the Blue Line a stop early to pick up Taco Bell for my family after work. And EVERY TIME there is at least one customer starting crap with the unfortunate souls who work there. The time before last, a tweaker degenerate was cursing out the poor girl who was taking his order. She couldn’t take it any more and got a large Hispanic man from the kitchen to finish the transaction, and the tweaker was still talking shit. He walked away in a huff without completing his order, and yelling to no one in particular «And quit looking at me like I’m an asshole»…he walked right into that, so I informed him that if he didn’t want to be looked at like an asshole then he’d better quit acting like one. He half heartedly approached me like he was going to get in my face, then thought better of it. Ha ha, I’m not dumb enough to cruise around in that hood unarmed, I wish he would have. The next time I went there, a HUGE tranny was cursing out the girl behind the counter. S/​he was ENORMOUS with a 5 o’clock shadow, so I kept my mouth shut.
I love Taco Bell and would probably go there a lot more, but the clientele is seriously *terrifying*.

I come here late night, drive thru only. Service is always great, specially the older gentleman at the window. Always gives me enough sauce and never messes my orders up like other people. I love this tacobell, please stay open later!

What would you do if you saw a customer giving a cashier a fake $ 50 bill?
I ordered food at Taco Bell/​Pizza Hut restaurant yesterday at around 8pm. I still have the receipt. And the short hispanic guy with scar on his chin, wearing a dark green shirt with «down and dirty» label on the back, was ordering food.
I noticed a dollar with white and blue-​ish color… I thought that could be money from another country. I thought cool, taco bell accept all foreign currencies. But I looked again… It had President Grant’s face on it.
The hispanic cashier gave him $ 20s, $ 5 and $ 1 and other changes. And she was trying to hide the fake money so her boss and co workers won’t see.
She noticed me. And tried to give me free drink.
I nodded my head… and stared at her.
I don’t want her to get fired or anything… she looked like she was tired of helping that man to steal. I guess he must be a gang member… and she was afraid of him. I don’t know. She looks like a sweet person.
So I just sat down. My food was luke warm. But I ate them anyway. I love the bacon club chalupa and put verde salsa and hot sauce on my personal pizza.
and saw the guy with the chin scar, getting free drinks from the soda vendor machine 3 times. Eating food for free.
I don’t want Taco Bell/​Pizza Hut to close down…
would you report if you saw taco bell staff dropped a box of food on the floor and gave it to the drive thru customer?
Tell the manager? Maybe the manager is rookie too.
I know that they would drop food… but not in front of me or other customers. That staff just picked up the box of food and put it inside the bag with napkin and other food package… I see why people get sick.
After I ate, I just help the staff clean up, picking up trashes off the floor and left.

This is probably one of the gnarliest areas in downtown Long Beach. I was driving around aimlessly, starving, and stopped here just because the parking lot appeared, for the moment, to be less ghetto than the adjacent El Pollo Loco. I wish I had stayed far, far away. I just can’t eat this garbage.

Taco Bell food will always be Taco Bell so this review is mainly for the drive-​thru staff. They’re great, super friendly, and always take your order with a smile. You can actually hear them smiling thru the intercom. As for the food, I actually happen to like their crunch wraps (try their breakfast ones!), mexican pizza, and chipotle cream sauce and I always get what I order here. It is located right off of 7^th street and Long Beach Blvd so you get all the etch a sketch wanderers coming from the blue line and surrounding areas. Just be aware of your surroundings, lock your doors, don’t get out of your car, don’t come alone if you can avoid it and don’t come in at night. Just kidding. Its not that scary… sometimes.

Yesterday January 3^rd 2014, approximately 12 noon I went to this taco bell. The cashier was an idiot she had the line backed up for 15 minutes I was hungry and annoyed. So once I got to the counter I place my order, I got a Gordita supreme a taco supreme and what was supposed to be a Cool Ranch taco. However once I got back to the house I realized it was just a regular hard shell taco. I’m a Pretty laid back dude so I didn’t let it get to me. However this is the deal breaker. After 2 hrs, my stomach started turning knots an less then 15 min later my butt was glued to the shitter. Once that was over… I thought it was over and I would be able to go on about my day which would be having to go to work…
6pm, I am at work and I’m feeling light headed and nauseous and sweating! My coworkers are commenting that I’m wasn’t looking good an I concurred, So I drank some soda water an lemon to hopefully ease the stomach pains I was having. That was a debacle because it didn’t stay down I had to make a dash to the bathroom asap. I’ll spare u the fine details… All in all I was sent home cause I couldn’t work and I missed out on $ 120 bucks for the nights pay. I’m done with Taco bell Aka Taco hell!

Service was decent, not very helpful, our order was mixed up more than once. Seating is weird, but the pinto beans and drinks were good.

Used brand new app to order, excited to test it out, app shows they are open for business and ready for my $ 23.19 order. So I drove down to pick it up, turns out they are installing new kitchen equipment or remodeling. I told the manager through the open door about the situation as I had already put my credit card.
«Oh yea we are closed right now.»
After checking in the back she says «Oh ok I voided it.»
That was it. No receipt showing this, no I am sorry for the inconvenience, and not even a drink offered from the soda fountain the handymen were enjoying. I assume these were complimentary seeing as they were not open for business… Luckily taco bell emailed me to confirm my order canceled, but so much disappointment and lack of customer care at a taco bell I frequent at least 4 times month. Boo.
Side note, while writing this review 19 cars have attempted the drive thru which is fully lit. Poor to turn away business with not even the slightest care. What manager decides 9pm is an ideal time to remodel with such lack of care for loyal and hungry patrons. Especially ones who are trying out the new technology their company is begging consumers to try for convenience. I tried it out and was made to feel inconvenient.

So today was family day, and my parents and I picked up my cousin who lives in long beach. He wanted to go to Taco Bell out of all places, lol. I hadn’t been to Taco Bell in a while because I heard their ingredients are legit «shit.» Anyway, this is kind of a «ghetto» location, since it’s right next to downtown LB. The restrooms are dirty, it’s pretty small inside, and looks old school. However, the cashier was REALLY nice and cool. A young girl about my age helped my family and I decide what to get cause we were indecisive. I asked about prices and she seemed to know a lot and told us it would be so & so much for each item. The most ghetto part of coming here was that the drinks machine was turned off by the manager so people wouldn’t free load off of drinks LOL. Also, there is a 90-​something old lady working here!!! Insane! the food was good. The burritos are the same size as a freakin soft taco. My Doritos loco taco was BOMB.

I love the service here! I am always consistently pleased with how friendly and chatty the staff is. I only do drive through though because the inside and surrounding property sometimes has some crazy and homeless people around, otherwise it’s a great location. Btw, The employee Stephany is awesome!

This Taco Bell is ok. Love the food. I don’t like how small this locatin is. I don’t like how this location looks on the inside.

Taco bell is taco bell. Need I say more?

The «2 meal deal» menu isn’t really 2 Dollars! It’s $ 2.39 Plus Tax now.
I like going here, its fast, not much interruptions when you are trying to eat (well most of the time) but Taco Bell is Taco Bell! I just don’t like how they don’t offer you taco sauce when they hand you your order!

How the F does a feather end up in a soda?
Everyones heard the stories about Taco Bell serving crow meat so when my wife said she wanted taco bell for lunch I cringed. Despite my instincts I relented and got the cruch wrap combo. I ate the enitre combo and then for some reason my wife opened her drink and found a FEATHER floating on her diet coke… WTF?
Who the hell knows what kind of crap was in my food if there are feathers in the soda. If I die of bird flu it’s Taco Bells fault.

Let me state for the record that I LOVE Taco Bell. always have… always will.
I just don’t like THIS Taco Bell.
It is dirty– the eating area, ordering counter, soda fountain. all a little slimy. I don’t even want to think of what goes on in the kitchen.
The clientelle in this particular location usually consists of homeless people who are sitting in the booths talking to themselves or future gang-​banger youths. Granted– it is in downtown LB and not the best area.
I have been to this location 4 times– twice in drive through (where it took several attempts to get the order in correctly) and twice actually going inside. It’s close to my house so it’s very convenient– which is why I have gone back multiple times.
At this point I am giving up on this location as it is ALWAYS bad in one form or another. I will make the extra trip to go to the one on Broadway.

I admit I blew my diet when I went to visit this den of iniquity. This place is pure lust, evil. A culinary whorehouse. It’s wicked. After months of healthy eating with an occasional bite or two of animal flesh other than fish, I was craving a nasty visit to this house of ill repute. Serving up nasty, fake Mexican, refried beaned-​assed-​corporate-​chain deliciousness. They sure do know how to make a a bad thing taste soooo good!
This is going to cost me two extra miles, so I’d better load the I-​Pod.
Prior to my trek, I did not know that this particular spot also has a Pizza Hut Express.
Now, need I tell you how cool this is…
OK. OK Sorry. Please excuse that outburst. My food lust oozeth over. I ended up getting a personal pan pizza and put it on ice for lunch the next day. I put on my shades, ducked down in the ride and rolled the drive through. I didn’t want to be seen in this seedy joint with its processed meat and creamy ass flour tortillas. I’d rather be food-​snobbing at a salad bar or in the produce aisle at a local grocery store.
So, I get in and I get out unscathed an unnoticed. Once home, I devour the taco salad that I bought as well, just enough to sate my lusty, fast food desire… then showed her to the door when I was done.
This spot is open late in a seedy part of town. How appropriate for that late night snack when the better choices are so unappealing. Ladies, we do love a nice reward for our efforts. :-)

5 stars for being one of the only fast food joints open late at night in downtown. I think they close at 2 though :(
nothing like nachos supreme without meat at 1:30am. it really absorbs the alcohol.
