Customer Reviews
I use to go to Don taco back in the day , I stopped going cause it was always too much going on over the weekends. I ordered today after months of not going and when I say my food was like 24 bucks . I ordered a quesadilla, fries and rice. I received barely any meat on the quesadilla, it’s more onions than cilantro . I hate leaving bad reviews. But do better after a long day decided I was too tired to cook and this is what I got.then when I called because I paid 24 bucks to have a decent meal. When I spoke to manager about the quality and even said hey I’ll come back up there and show you how my food was made . The manager said as I quote we put 4 oz of steak on stuff no more. Complete disregard
This place is good if you were just at the club next door. If you weren’t there youll most likely never come here. The food us okay at best nothing too crazy i got a chicken quesadilla and my chicken was very dry and the greensauce wasn’t good. However they are very fast and do very well with large crowds.
I had the bowl, but saw them toasting tortillas and definitely want to get burritos or tacos next time. Chips were really good and salsa too. Horchata was very good. Added extras were a little spendy, but seems like everything is expensive. $4.50 for 4oz cheese dip, idk, maybe not bad?
The food is good, but it can be a bit salty sometimes. Regardless, the customer service here is genuinely lackluster and absolutely horrible. They do not care about incorrect orders and also criticise people for how they like their food compared. If you defend yourself, they simply hang up and either cancel your order or take the money and deny a chargeback. It sucks because I've loved this place a long time, but I'll just move to a different service since this one, for lack of a better phrase, is abhorrent and downright sucks. Show these proof photos to the guy who argued with me about never ordering the cheese on the side. It's clearly in my order history.
I absolutely love this authentic Mexican restaurant that are open late and they have some really really good sweet tea now if you go in there on a Friday or Saturday night yes it is a little chaotic because you got the club right next door but still all together it is a great place plenty of room to sit inside always clean parking is a little rough but all around great place
