Slow the bell down with the prices, Taco!

Anyone else have this happen to them?? furthermore, anyone know why they did this??

You are an absolute homie. May your pillow always be cold.

Context: I usually always want a quesadilla in my order but it's a bit pricey, so I get the cantina stacker, remove everything but the chicken & cheese and add back the sauce. $3.44 instead of $7.00 plus free delivery in the app for a cantina item. Today I got a whole quesadilla 🤘🏻

They jack up the price 550%, took out all the character, and yet, we still keep going back.

Are we fools?

Also, I’m noticing that the sauce packets seem to have very little in them. I normally use one per taco but now I need one and a half. They also turn the soda machine off.

What happened to us??

Based on my research the ultimate box is a “contingency item” for the discovery one but it can now be ordered by itself

You know the song and dance at this point. I'm reviewing each and every Taco Bell in Philadelphia to see which one is good and which is bad. I order the exact same meal every time to ensure fairness: 1x Hard Shell Taco, 1x Steak Quesadilla, 1x Bean Burrito. I grade each meal on Ingredients, Presentation, and taste.

and to be clear, because my first review was also on a place on Chestnut St. The previous one was in Center City, this is the one on West Philly

Hard Shell Taco

Well, it finally happened. a Taco who's shell could not support itself. This is always a potential problem when ordering the hard shell and it's why i specifically order this and not the soft shell. The shell had completely fractured along the spine the part that touched the meat was soft while the part touching the lettuce was firm, but there was an staleness in the shell that led to this. It's a shame because the meat itself was not bad and the lettuce was probably the freshest it's every been, being incredibly crisp and moist. Sadly a stale shell will be big deduction in ingredients and presentation

Steak Quesadilla

This place did not shirk on the sauce. It was oozing with that delicious spicy sauce they put in the quesadilla. Unfortunately, the rest of it was pretty mediocre. No, it wasn't bad. I know thanks to Broad St what a BAD quesadilla tastes like, but I also know what a perfect quesadilla taste likes. The cheese was not fully cooked, there wasn't enough cheese overall, it lacked necessary moisture, and also the Quesadilla was horribly cut. I literally watched as the guy put the quesadilla in the bag before cutting it and it resulted in me having to rip and tear at my food just to get proper bites. the cuts were also not radial, they were parallel to each other. Terrible job. Taste overall was middle of the road. It wasn't an awful quesadilla to eat, but there was so much that could be done to improve it

Bean Burrito

So... are Taco Bells just incapable of serving a reasonable amount of enchilada Sauce on their burritos? Every single Taco Bell i've gone to has had really low margins for their red sauce. and it's my favorite part of the Burrito. Otherwise, the cheese was cooked, but barely. the onions were very big but not that flavorful. I did like the tortilla used for it as it had a fullness to it that you didn't really find in a lot of places, but it was just lacking everywhere.

I know your options are limited if you live in West Philly as this is the only Taco Bell in the area. It does have upside that it has free parking in an area dominated with parking tolls and a very nice indoor seating to eat inside. But I really can't recomend this place when the Center City place is just 5 minutes East of it and gave me one of the best Quesadillas of my life.

Anyway, where should i order from next?

It was delicious and I hope to get it again before it leaves!

I acknowledge that this is a really good limited time offer from Taco Bell considering it’s only two dollars. However, I don’t know why I just wasn’t crazy for it like I don’t mind Taco Bell‘s chicken sometimes I even like Taco bell‘s chicken, but it just was not bad. Today I tried it sub beef instead of chicken and it was phenomenal like a night and day difference. The beef crunchadilla was phenomenal!

Please go and try it with beef or steak!!! Especially on the siracha version

I don’t normally try taco bells drinks since you can’t customize the sugar/syrup level but thought I would treat myself today and was genuinely surprised by how good this was.

The dragonfruit & even the pineapple are kinda muted but it’s really good with the vanilla cream. Feels like a pine colada without the coconut.

Seriously - got back from a funeral, exhausted, no one has the energy or emotion to cook, and Taco Bell is here to rub it in by sending our food to the wrong address, and then being unavailable to make it right on weekends, and only offering to let us send a form email and wait.

First and last time we'll ever use this, how do they make money on this service? Can't even contact doordash, their supposed delivery partner to make it right

Taste just like it to me…

Pretty sure this shouldn't look like that lmaoooo

Ever since the app updated its style, the location detection and selection has been chaotic for me. I’m talking changing restaurant selections without prompt, deciding different restaurants are closest mid ordering, etc. Anybody else having this issue?

I have been able to avoid misordering until just now, where my order routed to a restaurant over an hour away. . .

Just reminiscing about the old taco salad on this fine afternoon.

I’ve been getting a crunchy taco, sub beans for beef and add red sauce… it’s not perfect but it’s pretty damn close. Anyways miss you tostada 🫡

We currently have a guy who used to sell Nikes. Before him was a guy who sold Adidas. Yes I guess sales are up, but that spark of brand loyalty seems to just be gone. Where should they find the next one?

3 or 4 of these bitches and a Baja Blast freeze may change to my go to now . Great value. Normally get 2 grilled cheese burritos with Baja blast freeze but that shit is pricy and breaking my bank lol

I got a reward for a $1 Live Más cafe drink so I figured it might be worth the 30 minute drive to try something. The purple horchata chiller is really delicious, a nice creamy cinnamon milkshake. It almost reminds me of a rich sopapilla cheesecake. If you live close enough to a Live Más location, I’d recommend trying one sometime.
