Now, I don't usually leave reviews about mainstream fast food spots because they come a dime a dozen. But, the experience I had at this Taco Bell location is certainly worth noting. So I placed a mobile order for pick up in the drive thru because I was passing through the area and Taco Bell app was offering me a free slushy drink for my birthday... I figured why not take advantage of that! Plus I tacked on a black bean chalupa for the road. Upon arrival, I was supposed to check-in on the app upon as a signal for the restaurant to start prepping my order. However, I could NOT get the darn thing to work; it must have been a glitch in the matrix - LOL. Anywho...I waited for what felt like an eternity in the drive-thru and there were just a few cars ahead of me. By the time I reached the speaker I had been waiting for 10 minutes. I was little miffed by that, but I calmly announced my name to the attendant and he told me to pull right up. Guess the mobile order glitch didn't interfere with the restaurant's visibility to my order details. It took a couple more minutes before I finally reached the pick up window.... Received my free slushy... Waited another couple minutes... then received my bag. I looked inside and much to my surprise I had, not one, but TWO black bean chalupas!! I looked up at the manager, gave him a thumbs up, and then we gave each other a final head nod before I pulled off. That was his way of giving me a little extra for my troubles, I presume. I "so" appreciate that level of unsolicited service. Thank you Taco Bell manager! read more

This taco bell gave my dear friend food poisoning. We used to frequent this location and it was a jolly time, now he fears consuming the bell any longer. I still enjoy the bell, but I fear this location and its bonus sicknesses. I hope that they can make it up to us one day. Until then we will tread carefully. stay safe out there chalupas, Brock B. signing off. read more

Deadass why did I have to wait an hour on two separate occasions to get my food please hire more competent people instead of crayon eaters that are a waste of oxygen at the back of the store. Genuinely I don't understand the audacity of this Taco Bell to be open til 3 am when this is the quality of service that is being put out. Why is a worker asking me to take two rounds to get two orders when one of my orders is just tossing two items in a bag. Why don't you guys have idk some chalupas or other stuff Alr made like nobody cares about fresh food it's a Taco Bell please I just want fast food. Emphasis on the fast. Also why is there even an interior to this place do you guys like have that for decor or something. The lights are always on but nobody is home. Ok I'm done ranting and guess what I'm still in the drive through line. I'm literally safely able to use my phone behind the wheel. It's 2:30am. This isn't even peak hours. I'm glad I only crave this at chud hours. I wish I could have rated this zero stars. Please vacate this building for a Dave's hot chicken read more

Ordered the Discovery Luxe Box today and very disappointed in the crispy chicken burrito. It had no chicken just crispy crunch stuff left overs of the skin. If they don't have any crispy chicken left then just say you don't have it!!!! Now I need to eat a real dinner given my chicken burrito didn't have chicken!!!! read more

we ordered three mobile orders and gave them more than enough time to prepare, yet they made us drive around the drive through line three different times during busy hours and wait in line for over 30 minutes. we asked them if they were being serious and he straight up said yes go around there's no reason for this read more

Food was meh workers barely said a word and were rude and food gave me an upset stomach in the morning.

let me start of by saying i have been eating here for 13 YEARS, the food is what you would expect at every taco bell, the service is good, i have never had anything go wrong with it. Also the inside of the restaurant is so nice it very classic of a taco bell and sticks out like a sour thumb. And i order most of the time at night and on the app i have the highest level in rewards and i eat here a LOT, this place gives me so many memories and i would definitely recommend this place to you guys. read more

I went to the drive thru to get something quick to eat for lunch. The staff was friendly but they forgot my mild sauce. The service here is pretty fast and was convenient for me. Fiesta Potato: This was delicious but seemed a bit hard as if it has been sitting there for a while. Watermelon Candy Freeze Slush: This has the watermelon taste and was very refreshing to me. The candy that looks like a seed was not even chewable and was not appetizing at all. Cool Ranch Doritos Taco: This is my favorite thing to eat from Taco Bell. It has that cool ranch taste to it and is very delicious. Overall: This restaurant is not so bad for something quick to eat. They just need to pay more attention and make sure the customers receive everything. I will not be getting that watermelon slush with the candy any more since it was not edible to me. read more

It was late Thursday evening around 8:30 pm and place was packed inside and had drive thru lines for over 200 ft.. I had stopped in for a lunch earlier in the week . It must be school time purchases in mall. Anyway Taco Bell are best place fro cost effective spicy food for vegetarians !! Yes go to Craving menu for spicy tostadas with beans, rice bowl, new hot nacho fries and rice beans and cheese burrito. For no calories order glass of water. Have a great meal as I am having .. read more

This is for the Indian guy at the window at 9:35pm tonight, who stated we had to get all the way to the back of the line just to add ONE taco to the order. How incompetent can you be? I'm sorry, are you grilling the tacos?! Roasting them rotisserie style?! You're literally slapping lettuce cheese and horse meat inside a shell. Please make it make sense? Have to get back in line for ONE (1) taco??? We will NEVER be back. The wait alone is horrendous. read more

I have been eating at this Taco Bell almost my entire life. I have eaten here through E. Coli breakouts, renovations, tearing down the whole building, after my high school soccer/basketball games, after high school events, late night college study sessions, post exam celebrations, post wedding 4th meals, etc etc. you name it! This Taco Bell will always be home. Every item on the Taco Bell menu is worth trying at least once (and most of them multiple times!). The classic Crunchwrap supreme. You can never go wrong. The 5 layer beefy burrito (which I get without beans, I know). The chicken quesadilla, an item I ordered regularly during simpler times. The cheesy Gordita crunch or chicken chalupa! Of course you always have to try out their specialty, limited time items. Hello nacho Fries! But do we all remember the chicken, bacon, ranch flatbread for $1?! That got me through some tough times! Please bring that back. The bargain options... from the cheesy roll up, an absolute classic! To the spicy potato soft taco. I know, it sounds lame... but that jalapeño sauce just brings everything together in that warm delicious tortilla. I even had a friend go as far as to say, "their nachos are so good they should rename to Nacho Bell". Shoutout DJ Patty Swift. I will never forgive Taco Bell for getting rid of the caramel Apple empanada however. That was a true travesty. And we haven't even gotten to breakfast yet! You truly have no lived if you haven't eaten breakfast at Taco Bell. 1. Because it's delicious and 2. Because you are truly living if you eat that and you're not within arms reach of a toilet. There truly is no better way to clear your bowels in the morning than a breakfast Crunchwrap from your local T Bell. And of course... to bring it all together. There is nothing better than a cold, crisp Baja Blast. When it hits your lips! There aren't many greater feelings. Of course you always gotta make sure to check your bag because they will just straight up forget half your order. But that's kinda part of the Taco Bell experience, isn't it? read more

June 27, 2021 I waited 30min for my order , I only order grande box nachos, 3 beef crunchy taco, and beef chalupa .. I got home I open my grande box nachos they put lettuce on my grande box nachos and they forgot to put guacamole too, box also dirty with stain of oil .. it's unacceptable . I am so mad .... I took pictures of my order slow service too... read more

They are rude, slow, and love to gossip about and stare at the customers in the dining room. This is coming from personal experience. The only reason I keep coming back is because the food is decent (when they don't mess up the order, that is). Also I feel like they are racist toward people who are *not* Indian. read more

They recently renovated the place to look nicer and it definitely looks nicer. Food takes a really long time to come out, especially if you're sitting in so even if the drive thru looks really long, go through the drive thru Food is okay, but I always go for the quesarito. Manager is a bit rude. An individual in our group can't eat beef so she ordered the chicken option. She took one bite and it turns out that it's beef so we went back, but the manager was rude about it, and I had to force an apology out of him. In all, it's Taco Bell. read more

Consistently awful service. 9 times out of 10 I'm missing something from my order or something in the order is wrong. They always have the doors locked to the inside no matter the time with a 10+ car line outside. Ordered for in restaurant pickup today because I was in a rush- got there, doors were locked and all the workers ignored me and multiple other people trying to get in. I've been sitting in line for 30 minutes now and still have 5 cars in front of me, but I don't want to leave without getting my 50 dollar order (that I'm sure will be cold) for my staff because I'm sure I won't get my money back. Tried going here last night 45 minutes before close, and an employee came out the back door and yelled to the line of cars that they were closed. read more

Taco bell corporate and local franchisees SUCK!!! I stopped by today (saturday, 3/26/22) like 2 weeks ago (Saturday) to take care of my Taco Bell break fast craving, guess what waiting in drive thru 5 mins shouting at intercom,,,no answer,,,then parked and looked inside the store window,,,lights are off and only see few workers moving boxes in the kitchen. Then i come home now and find out now through their web site, that store doesn't open until 11 am on saturdays, so what happened to breakfast, with sunday opening at 10 am now, leaving only 1 hr. for break fast enthusiasts!!! i don't know who are the board of directors at Taco bell, but i'm sure their names have to be Larry, Moe, and Curly (3 stooges),,,no brains,,,,,,,no announcements that the hrs. changing !!! Taco bell corporate grow up and be little more responsible, why changing the hrs., i need my b fast fix!!!! ( i would have given them zero stars, but i guess i cant !! ) read more

Came through for a late night fixing and it was my first taco experience. What was I thinking that I would be disappointed. Was really a treat. I will definitely be visiting them once again. When it comes to this or W.C. Taco bell will win my vote. Nice varieties of things and priced right for late night. read more

I am giving this Taco Bell 5 stars because out of all the Taco Bell's I have been to, this one gets my order correct. The staff is friendly and they also don't make a mess out of the tacos by slapping in the ingredients. They also always give a good handful of sauce in my to go bag. read more

Just ok. They are always very slow inside and via drive through. They need to find a way to speed up service and I find them expensive for what you get. The drinks are way over priced. They have vegan options so I go in a pinch but not my first choice. read more

We go to this Taco Bell at least several times a year and always order Chalupas. My husband picked up Chalupas last week and the amount of beef filling has substantially declined by as much as 50%! For an item over $4, the BK Whopper is a far better deal with more meat. read more

This is by far the worst Taco Bell that I've been to. Upon the first out of two visits tonight, I specifically ordered the Cheesy Gordita Crunch #10, along with two Doritos locos tacos. I only received the latter half of this order and went back to remediate the situation. Instead of going through the drive-thru, I went inside to fix the order. I had no receipt because the DT attendant did not provide one, and on top of that, the staff was incredibly rude. Again, I specifically asked for the Cheesy Gordita Crunch #10, and received a wrap. This is obviously not what I ordered so I brought it to the staff's attention again, and instead of giving me the correct order or refunding me my money, I received an UNWRAPPED soft taco thrown in the bag along with (1) Cheesy Gordita. #10 is supposed to come with (1) Cheesy Gordita taco, along with two hard shelled tacos. On top of that, upon the first bite, the Gordita taco tasted stale and had no crunch whatsoever. I will never return to this establishment and will take my business elsewhere. Avoid eating at this particular location. I'm thoroughly disappointed. read more

This new crew blows. I have literally been waiting over a half hour. They are like a bunch of derelict clowns. I miss the old crew.

The renovations are beautiful. The cashier was EXTREMELY NICE only then to ask me to write a good review about her and their Taco Bell on the survey. I thought about it until I realized that my whole order was wrong. Which was no big deal. I kindly explained that my order was wrong she said okay. Then someone from the kitchen came out to ask me what exactly it was that I wanted. (beef burrito with no cheese, and a regular taco) the whole situation was just weird. My order came out wrong the second time too. I just ate it and didn't make a big deal. I would rather not go to this location anymore. read more

Order is always wrong or very badly done. We get there 30 minutes before closing and they tell us that they're just going to close. You should stay open according to operating hours read more

Rude staff. Long lines. Orders lost. Thank goodness there will be a Tacoria close by. They have way better service and much better food.

Honestly this Taco Bell is "eh" because they have messed up my order multiple times and I would have to drive back to get it re-made. Service is sometimes slow and sometimes it's fast. The other bad thing I've experienced here is that they closed the lobby inside the store early by 15 min on a Saturday night at 10:45 pm when the sticker / online says they close the lobby at 11pm. So they denied people from entering when they're clearly suppose to still be open. Last, I even a complaint and still have not heard back from anybody. read more

The staff there is on point with getting orders correct,& being personable. I always said the TB in Penn Station was the best ever,& this rivals it. Crunchwrap supreme was LOADED. They prepared my other vegan order perfectly. Even though the Edison branch is closer, I will gladly drive 5 more minutes read more

I always try and give the benefit of the doubt to kids trying to get a start or money for school but I can't stand if you are going to take on a job, whether you like it or not do it to the best of your ability. You chose to take the job. When I order something as simple as a # 10, 2 cheese rolls up and 2 cinnamon twists and end up with a quesadilla and burrito!!!!!!! Holy dick snot?!?!??! I always give the benefit of the doubt but I am always proven wrong. Don't do the job if you don't want to. Your attitude at the first job you have reflects the attitude u will have the rest of your life. Square yourself away South Plainfield Taco Bell. read more

The quality of tacobell compared to that of other bells is sub par. The restaurant is busy which seems like a good thing until youre waiting 20 mins for your crunch wrap supreme. The toasted cheddar cheese chalupa is lacking in the umami department. Very one dimensional flavors. It is lacking brightness which should be brought by the tomato's which are un-flavorful. Overall we give this a 3/5 bell rating read more

Wait time for food is ridiculously high esp when there aren't many customers waiting. Food is served on the tray without a tray paper and any food coming in direct contact with the tray has to be discarded, which I had to. A strange observation - The store is a parking place for associates 'off duty' literally lying around on benches in some corner. Not clean and hygienic, even after being closed a couple of years ago on a/c of E. Coli scare a few years ago. read more

They always mess up and they always miss sometimes. Like recently they missed nachos in my order. You have literally search for the beans in bean tacos and chalupas. Most of the time mobile app does not work to place order for this location. And longer times and pathe service read more

Used the drive through Monday night 3/21. The employee mumbled the entire time while placing the order. Could hardly make out what the employee was saying. Once we got to the window, the employee appeared to be annoyed for being there. I said hello, nothing back, then when she gave me the meal, I said thank you and nothing. Good customer service goes a long way, it even makes the eating experience much better EVEN IF THE FOOD SUCKS. Anyway, once we got home, 5 min away, we noticed that the food was cold, the chips stale, and just utterly disgusting. I've never had such a horribly prepared simple meal. It is a shame. Please consider rebiewing your night staff operation because if this continues your franchise will tank. I think the employees need to be rotated, or dismissed. Comparing this Taco Bell'a night staff to the staff at the Rt 22 Green Brook area location, the Rt 22 location takes the win. The food was just gross, I blame this on the employees on this evening. Disgusting. Save your franchise, make changes. I highly advise everyone to stay away from this location at night until something is done. Disgusting. Find a different location. read more

they mess up ALOT but today ive just had it, i asked for 2 supreme Doritos locos taco and well , i got barely 2 tacos not even trying to be supreme. i attached 2 photos 1 that shows my 2 sad tacos and the next to compare a supreme taco to my non supreme even tho i asked for supreme taco. i paid $4 for 2 sad tacos. they revamped the entire store but their service still sucks and doesnt make up for it. very disappointed. read more

I may be a drunk and stoned miscreant but I won't be taken advantage of.. They are consistent in only leaving out things in orders. In my experience, there's a 25% chance they leave something out of your order. It's a pain in the neck that's only compounded by my inability to swear on this app. I love Taco Bell but they're turning me into a White Castle convert at this point. read more

Taco Bell is my favorite fast food. I have been to quite a few and have had both good and bad experiences. I like this location, when I go which is usually late morning early afternoon everyone at the drive thru is friendly and gets my order out quickly.
