This location has really taken a turn for the worst. Let's start with the good. The place is very clean and has plenty of seating. Also quiet...great place for having a conversation. Now the not so good. The service is extremely inconsistent. They are not great at listening to orders and often make mistakes. You should always check your order before you leave. Missing/wrong dressing, didn't omit toppings when requested, forgot simple things like drink cups, and made specialty items poorly. The food quality is also hit and miss. I recommend staying away from the rice during later part of day. Consistently dry and inedible pieces. Also tried the new cherry fizz drink. They put way too much syrup...definitely avoid. And if something goes wrong, the management doesn't really care...nor will they try to make it right. Sadly, Taco John is now off our weekly rotation. Eat here at your own risk. read more

We got the meat and potatoes breakfast burritos this morning. We're not sure the bacon was really bacon and they forgot the pico de gallo. Kind of disappointing. read more

Food was absolutely delicious! The service was excellent, I talked to one of the employees and they made wonderful conversation that made my day. The place was clean and quiet wonderful to sit and enjoy some fresh food that takes SECONDS to come! read more

I eat here pretty often since it's reasonably good, cheap, and fast enough that I can squeeze in a walk at Walnut Grove Park on my lunch hour. Nutrition: Oil and salt galore. Flavor: Mostly salty, but good. This location seems to change their fryer oil regularly, so I don't encounter the "burnt oil" taste I get at some other Taco Johns. Service: They've always been friendly to me. Atmosphere: Plenty of seating. I like their music (mostly contemporary Christian). Cleanliness: Tables and bathrooms and service areas are kept clean. As with most TJs, the receipt usually comes out with tater tot oil on it, making it icky to put in my pocket or receipt file. Funny observation: They always seem shocked, I say SHOCKED, when I decline ranch dressing on my taco salad. I believe a taco salad should only have salsa. read more

They say that without hope Man is but an animal. Well it looks like I still have a bit o' hope left because MAN is Taco John some kind of ANIMAL. This place has it all - Walls, doors, windows...you name it, they got it. But at what cost? What toll does TJ demand of us, the consumer, for the fruits of his labor? No one is quite sure. This place is shrouded in secrecy and doubt. 2-Stars. read more

The food was great very well cooked and assembled. I also loved how the people treated me when taking my order and they were very very polite and kind. The place is very colorful with nice seating arrangement and comfortable to be in. The environment was great and would recommend I will be back! read more

A bag of expensive garbage. Awful. The food is disgusting. I got crispy tacos and they made the tacos out of SUPER STALE taco shells. I'm not coming back. I got charged over$14.00 for a bag of stale, gross tacos. If they can't be bothered to use fresh ingredients, well I can't be bothered to pay money for literal garbage that I had to throw away when I got home. They forgot my husband's taco bravo also. If I could give negative stars, I would. Do yourself a favor and go literally anywhere else. Leftovers tonight. Get bent, Taco Johns. Just close the place and stop poisoning people. The hospitals are full enough. read more

Stopped by the drive thru on the way home. Tried a spicy grilled chicken burrito from their value menu and it was surprisingly good. It was spicy, but not too spicy. I also ordered their nacho chips and cheese. The cheese was pretty bland and the chips seemed overly salty. They didn't seem like fresh chips like they had in the past, they were more bulk chips you wouldn't get at the store. I have to say they were disappointing. I asked for light ice in my drink, but they filled it 3/4 full of ice. I really shouldn't expect too much for fast food, but I would have been better off stopping in Chipotle for the cost verses quality. read more

Tried to get food at 9:30 on 4/13 and was told there was a workplace emergency? The drive thru was still on and no one was coming to either the door or window. I had to bang on the drive thru window to get people to answer anything read more

Potato Ole's - salty carb bombs of delectable deliciousness. Taco Burgers - buns with all the perks of fast food taco flavors. Taco Tuesday deals - cheaper tacos! Those are the three reasons I am drawn to visit Taco John's. However, I wanted to create this quick review because I've been impressed with the staff at this location. Quick and accommodating as they've been, I've not had a bad experience. Keep up the good work! read more

The location is right next to my house. My order is incorrect every time. I have talked to the manager and the owner and still there is no change to the standards. I told myself I wouldn't go back again. After a month I tried again today. No sour cream that we ordered, no straws, and there is dirt in my cup (probably from Being dropped on the floor and being used anyway). Please take my advice, go elsewhere. read more

Taco John's - the inside of a toilet bowl - Mexican Near Me - Omaha, Nebraska

I hate giving poor reviews but I seriously. When the hours of operation are until 10pm for drive thru that should mean that they can let customers order until that point. I showed up at the drive through at 9:54 and sat at the ordering menu for 4 minutes waiting to order and nobody came on the intercom. I pulled around to the window thinking maybe they couldn't hear me. I was clearly seen and ignored and after sitting there for a couple of minutes, the what I assume was the manager simply shook her head and gestures they weren't open. At least give the courtesy to not waste my time. read more

I really don't feel good about leaving places bad reviews, but I definitely feel worse after eating here. Normally, I'm not a partaker of fast-food, but was convinced into trying Taco John's street tacos. Never again. Of the menu items I tried, ONLY the street tacos had an ounce of flavor to them. 100% certain we will not be back. The restaurant, itself, was in need of a good cleaning. The tables and chairs had a layer of stickiness to them, even after being wiped down. read more

We have been going to this Taco John's location for years and have loved it. However, today our experience was beyond horrible. We spent $27.00 only to get tacos that had minimal filling, broken and stale shells. The potato ole's tasted as though they were days old, cold, soggy and spongey. Disgusting! We took a taco in an showed it to the manager and her response was sorry, but we have had to reduce portions and increase prices. Really???? That's how you want to keep customers??? Sadly, this has ruined it for ALL Taco John's as far as we are concerned. We will no longer dine at any Taco John's, ever. read more

Our dietitian (of all people) would always go here and grab me something to eat. This is not authentic Mexican but it's waaaay better than Taco Bell. Don't expect great Mexican restaurants in the Midwest. I'd always get beef tacos and Potato Oles with sour cream for dipping. The tacos are ok but the Potato Oles is where it's at! They put special seasoning on these fried potatoes and they're addicting. I can't really say much about this place since we only do drive-through on our lunchbreak. read more

My son calls these "Quality Tacos". Much better than Taco Bell, that's for sure.

New sauce packets full of toxic waste. So gross! Tuesday tacos cost 20% more and have 50% less ingredients. This is trash and I'm probably done. Sad used to be my favorite. read more

I have to say Im usually am not a big review person. Today I ate at this store. The tables had 6 feet social distance even though they don't have to. Each one was labeled clean to sit at or not for use. Employees managers all wore mask which is better than some FF. Big guy took order he needs a little training. Food was hot fresh and quick in my opinion. I ordered a Combo number 4 which was cheaper than Taco Bell $5.00 for Taco Bravo Oles and drink. I guess it has a Thursday Taco Bravo meal special. I guess they dont have condiment bar anymore but gave me options. All and all one of the better visits in the neighborhood. I will be back Thanks Taco John's for a great experience. read more

Absolutely disgusting. These are supposed to be the steak street tacos. They were completely soggy and there was no way to pull them apart. There was also a lot of liquid inside of the aluminum foil. It is unbelievable that someone would actually give this to a customer. Will definitely not be going back. read more

Taco John's - Steak street tacos - Mexican Near Me - Omaha, Nebraska

despite being a little backed up last night the drive thru cashier was friendly and made sure we had everything we ordered including the correct sauces, and made sure our special order was correct. had a small wait in the drive thru but it was worth it due to the food being fresh, made to order, good portions and the customer service really topped it all off read more

Pretty delicious food and good service. Not a fancy restaurant of course, but inexpensive and big portions. Friendly staff as well.

First off, this rating would've been even less but They did have good service. It was a relief to see they were wearing gloves and masks. However, unfortunately the food was just not up to par -- I'm sorry but not even close. Not to mention, their menu at the drive through was not thorough and complete. They didn't have a lot of items that were listed on their website. The nachos were stale, cheese was hard, ground beef was dry and the toppings that there were played more as a garnish than an actual ingredient. They also skimped on the grilled burrito. It was pretty much eating a rolled up dry flour tortilla. There were maybe like three pieces of beef inside of at all. The taco salad bowl was completely flavorless and once again skimped on the toppings which were subpar anyway. Will not be coming back. We ended up not being able take down the food bc it was so bad. I guess this place a yet but I'm Sticking to Taco Bell. read more

Best Taco John's of all time thanks to Josiah. He's the greatest manager of a restaurant I've ever seen. He even memorized the Taco John's promise, just ask him about it! Be careful coming here on Tuesdays, the line can be out the door to the street. read more

Very expensive and no worth it. There is way more many places that offer better food for cheaper price. I have to say the only good in this place are the potatoes olés. read more

Taco John is my go to spot for a quick and somewhat healthy breakfast fix - small Potatoe Ole - minus cheese please! I have never been disappointed with the food or service. Terry, who seems to be working drive-thru, on the days i visit, is the epitome of great customer service. read more

Excellent service and the friendliest management and crew that a fast food establishment could offer. They serve real, freshly cooked ingredients, as opposed to Taco Bell. You can really taste a difference in the food. They even greet me by name now! 10/10 food quality and experience. I would highly recommend this location. read more

Over priced, not the nicest staff, far from Authentic Mexican food. The "managers" there seem to only be worried about there pay, not the customers satisfaction read more

NEVER go here for breakfast!! I ordered a #2 off the breakfast menu and I'm pretty sure they gave me the #2 on the regular lunch menu. I was supposed to get 2 jr burritos for $4 and instead I got 1 burrito for $6.19.... these employee's obviously are not trained well and don't know how to take an order right. read more

Fast food restaurants are subject to my four-star maximum rating disclaimer. Having said that this was a top-notch experience with taco John's. I have never been disappointed by this location even during their peak dinner hour. Today was no exception Their staff was friendly and polite and extremely helpful. The food was as good as it will ever be at a fast food restaurant. read more

Hey, it's Taco Johns. Good foid at reasonable price. Ckean and courteous .... taco burger is my favorite!

Love this place. The food is good and everyone is super friendly and efficient. Quality service and it was very easy using the app that they have. read more

When craving some fast mexican-ish food, I prefer Taco John's over the Bell. In fact, it is one of the better fast food options in town. Let me emphasize that I am referring to fast food not fast casual. While tasty, this place doesn't compare to other higher priced options like Chipotle or Qdoba. read more

Good food ! Tacos- oles - cheese! How could you go wrong! ....................Josiah is the best!

Very rude "manager" Dominique. She chastised me for not mentioning my coupon when ordering. Why bother with the Taco Johns app when rudeness is the result of attempting to use it. The young man initially helping me was quite kind. Dominique was atrocious and I believe she treated me with disrespect because of racism. I do not think that she would have treated a woman who looked like her in such a condescending manner. The food was adequate. read more

Most of my visits here are during breakfast, as I'm not a fan of TJ's taco meat. But I am a pretty big fan of their Potato Ole breakfast scramblers, and their breakfast burritos. And let's not forget the nacho cheese sauce. The service I get at this location has always been pretty decent, and my order has always been accurate. It's pretty salty, but I'm sure my choice of bacon on everything doesn't help the situation. One thing that always stands out for me, though, is the drive thru garbage can. It may not seam like a big deal, but it's the last thing I see of the restaurant as I'm leaving, and it is ALWAYS stuffed full. I have never seen it any other way. I don't know who's responsible for emptying it, night closers or morning openers, but it's never done when I swing through between 8-8:30AM. It's gross, and I think of it every time I am deciding where to get my breakfast. If that never gets emptied, what else is being overlooked? Otherwise, the food and drive thru employees are pretty great. read more

They are great. They treat their regulars like family. I go in every other night on my way home from work. Mason and Jeff know me by name. read more

While I have been a customer of this franchise since the 70's, unfortunately the one I ate at the most (along Center street at 89th) is long gone. Good news is that Taco Johns is still the same and very good. I love their soft shell taco's, and also the Taco Bravo. My wife likes the Ole's & a mix of their cheese dip with some of their mild sauce mixed in. And they have fresh Pico on the sauce bar and several very good sauces from mild to very hot. They even still do Taco Tuesday and Softshell Saturday. Very good food for the money and if nothing else, very nostalgic. You cannot go wrong with this place. read more
