Taco Time

There were three of us in our group and all three of us arrived and ordered separately. I mention this because as we all met at our table, each one of us commented on how friendly and professional the Cashier was. Her name was Zoe and she almost made me want to work there! I feel like my fast food experiences don’t typically produce a noticeable customer service experience, unless it’s on the negative side. It’s a hard job that many people don’t want to do, and I appreciate someone that makes it look fun.
Aside from that, the food was really good and it felt like I was eating more quality than typical «fast food» but without the high price and inconvenience of a restaurant.
The place could definitely have used a bit of acleaning, but it wasn’t so gross that I wouldn’t go back.

I have always loved taco time. But please bring back the «taco light»! It’s been many many years. But the time is right.

Im not sure how Taco Time does it, but their tacos shells dont fall a part when you bite into them. The food as a general rule is always consistent and fresh. I like pretty much everything on the menu. If you havent tried there chicken chili, I highly recommend it. Crisp beef burritos are always good too.

This place has excellent tacos. I went there on ⁹⁄₉ with my mother and the food was high in quality and it came out right away. They did make a mistake and give me a beef taco when I had ordered chicken, however I was given a different taco promptly and both tacos were actually really good. My only critique of this place is its a bit pricey it came out to $ 23.00 and some change for two people. Love this place though and will be back

Ironically, the four star rating is because something went wrong.
I ordered two crisp beef burritos, a crisp beef taco, & a large Mexi fries. I hadn’t eaten all day and this seemed like a perfect meal for my lone daily meal.
The two burritos and the taco were fantastic. One of the reasons I’m willing to pay sit down prices for fast food, is because Taco Time does a great job.
However, the Mexi fries (which are glorified tater tots,) looked as if something horrible had happened. They looked like two film companies were simultaneously filming a Friday the 13^th movie AND a sequel to Platoon in a potato field.
Normally, I would just accept it as punishment for eating such fatty food, but in this case I was still in the neighborhood, and so I returned with them.
The manager apologized, explained that the tater tots have been, as she put it «hashbrowning,» and even said she’d sent emails to corporate about the problem.
She offered to replace them or refund them. I didn’t feel that replacing them with more «hashbrown» tater tots would be to my benefit, and so I asked for a refund.
She handled it with the utmost professionalism and courtesy. The only reason that the restaurant did not get 5 stars is because of the tater tots.
Other people might have given and them 1 or 0 for something like that, but the way that they handle the entire issue made me a lifelong Taco Time eater.
God save my arteries.

The drive-​in here SUCKS! Please tell the manager at the window to get overhangs for the order speaker and the window! when it’s pouring rain you’re going to get soaked!

Employees are friendly, service is fast. I like that the food is made fresh-​to-​order, but it does make a take a few extra minutes longer than a fast-​food joint that has everything all made up before you arrive. Food is very high quality and the price is good.

The same people have been working here for years. I love the staff and the food is great. Mini time meals are the best!

Baja fish tacos!!!
The fish can range in size, so you might get one taco with a big awesome piece and then another with a piece so small you have to double check that it’s there, bummer. Either way, they are sooo tasty!
This Taco Time has spoiled me though. I went home to Portland and got a craving for one of these tacos, so went to get one… no fish tacos at any Portland Taco Times. What?!? Utter disappointment, Portland.
Good service and fresh, locally sourced ingredients. Worth a stop!

This place could be considered gourmet when compared to Taco Bell. I love the beef soft taco with the slight ranch flavor to their sour cream…

My favorite slightly upscale fast food Mexican place. Very nice menu, way better than Taco Bell.

I love that they have the gluten free options listed on a side menu. It makes it so easy to see exactly what their offerings are! Great idea!
The restaurant was clean, the service was fast and friendly.
Thanks, Taco Time!

Is this branch still open? I don’t see other reviews. Also, I saw that a corporate TT in Mt. Vernon was closed. I’m scared.
Last time I was at this TT was maybe 8 years ago, and as it had been many times before, was awesome. I always attributed it to the local cheese and sour cream.
But I don’t know. I will drive by to see when next driving thru Mt. V.
