About Taco Bell
Taco Bell is a haven for Mexican delicacies such as tacos, quesadillas, burritos, nachos, and other specialty items. Owned by Yum! Brands, Inc. Taco Bell is one of the fastest growing American chains of fast food restaurants. The restaurant operates from 7,072 different locations which are mostly run by independent franchisees and licensees.
The background story of Taco Bell is interesting and inspiring for budding entrepreneurs. The fast-food brand is the brainchild of Glen Bell, who started his first food venture as a hot dog seller in San Bernardino, California. The year was 1948. After witnessing long queues outside a Mexican restaurant called Mitla Café across the street, Bell saw the opportunity and demand for hard-shelled Tacos. He reverse-engineered the recipe and later started selling Tacos and called the venture Taco-Tia.
Later, the name changed from Taco-Tia to El Taco. Eventually, Glen Bell sold the company to his partner and opened the first Taco Bell in Downey in 1962. By 1964, the restaurant also got its first franchise in Torrance. The 100th Taco Bell restaurant was opened by 1965. PepsiCo acquired Taco Bell from Glen Bell in 1978 and the restaurant brand is currently a subsidiary of Yum! Brands which looks after the restaurant business of PepsiCo.

Mexican Cuisine
If you enjoy Taco Tuesday, then you have officially fallen in love with the Mexican Food. The main grain of Mexican cuisine is maize. Also known as corn, maize is grown for the past 9000 years after the crop was discovered by the people in Mayan civilization. Mexican empire flourished when they started growing beans, tomatoes, chili pepper, sweet potato and cactus. Till this date these ingredients are used in cooking authentic Mexican dishes and drinks.
Great use of spices, fresh chili pepper dishes like fajitas, tortilla chips, corn chips, salsa, chimichangas, burritos, nachos and quesadillas are invented in America. But when you are looking for authentic Mexican food then you must find a restaurant in the city that serves Rajas con Queso, Garbanzo in a Guajillo Chile Sauce, Pork Filled Chiles Rellenos, Chiles en Nogada, Molcajete Salsa, Pico de Gallo and Frijoles de la Olla. An eye-opening fact – Mexican don't like their food hot. They use fresh chili and other spices to create a flavor that lingers in your mouth.
Mexican food is great for those who are Gluten Intolerant as they use Corn instead of wheat in most of their dishes. Also, you can easily find many beans based Mexican dishes. Another dish which didn't get similar glory as tacos or nachos is the Mexican hot chocolate. If you love something hot on a chilly day, then go for Mexican Hot Chocolate. On merry days, you can enjoy the authentic Mexican Drinks like Tequila, Mezcal, Tecuí, Sotol, Bacanora, Charanda, Posh O Pox, Puebla and Pulque. Mexican Cuisine is for people who enjoy strong drinks and hearty meals.

Man....I can't remember when the last time I went to Taco Bell. Must have been since college days. We were in a hurry so my brother decided to get some fast Mexican. It's a nice and clean location. It must've been a new building. The staff was friendly. Now the food. It's one of those things that the moment you decide to stop eating, you feel so guilty. I wanted to slap myself on the mouth. Seriously. I did. My melted burrito platter was stuff with been, rice, little ground beef, topped with cheese. I had to doused 8 packets of hot sauce to make it edible. To sum up, I didn't finish it, and decided never to eat a thing from Taco Bell again.

Slowest. Service. Ever. After taking that much time, you'd think they'd get our order right! To summarize: wrong order, slow service, dirty tables, dirty floor... Just an amazing dining experience.
(1)Ashleigh B.
The food was good as always, and our order was correct. However, the dining room was closed so it was drive in only. When we pulled up to he menu after waiting in a long line. We were greeted casually and started placing our order. However halfway through the order, the speaker from the workers end 'stopped working', we still told them our order and they placed it on the screen. At the last moment the mic worked and our order was confirmed. After waiting we pulled up to the window, and paid. We were greeted with another long waiting time. During our wait, it came to my attention that the employee who took our order was either drunk or high, and was not responding to people's orders through the mic INTENTIONALLY, instead she chatted with other coworkers and was flirting with a male coworker. With 5 staff members, I don't think a 25 minute wait was reasonable, nor did I enjoy watching a drunk flirt and ignore customers. Food: good. Customer service: awful.

Steamed? Not me or my mood, just my desire. And not for vegetables, but for those two other carbs that taste best when steamed...the hot dog bun and the flour tortilla. And when you want the perfectly steamed tortilla filled with 7 gooey layers of "stuff", you've got to run to the boarder and Taco Bell! Aw come on, when melted cheesy goodness gets contained by an oversized freshly steamed tortilla and the ends are oozing and dripping beans, sour cream, and rice all over your lap...you can't get mad. You just grab the end and start sucking those 7 layers of burrito delight like a Cajun on a crawfish's head. Sure, it's not great etiquette, but we chose to go through the drive-through and take our chances at the first red light...it's our form of Burrito Roulette. Ingredients pouring out, fire sauce packet refusing to tear open, only one napkin in the bag, and you can't find it...now you find yourself steering through that intersection with your knees because every wet gelatinous soggy element of your burrito has expanded and crept in between your fingers and is slowly trickling down your wrists. Sure you hold that burrito effortlessly, tilting it to the side (Like holding an ice pick) as you try and lick that sloppy goodness from the back of your hand, while trying to keep one eye on the road. (At least you're not texting and driving). Ah yes, Taco Bell and the righteousness of being able to dine at 55mph. Can't say that's ever happened at The Palms.

Traveling through the boulder area and Taco Bell was the only place open at 2 AM. Del Taco, McDonald's, and another Bell were all closed as well. So we called, talked, and made a long drive over. We got to the drive thru, made a huge, complex order, pulled up and picked it up. They made it pretty fast, especially for 6 people's worth of food and we had everything that we ordered. The food was fine, just the same as any Taco Bell. It's not going to change your mind on the restaurant. The service was fast. The only issue was the Baja Blast. The best drink at a chain restaurant, and it was completely watered down. It tasted awful and is why I've got to give a 3. I'm thankful that they were open so late, but I would have driven another 5 miles for good Baja.

We've lived in the area for 5 years now and this is the first time I'm prompted to review a fast food restaurant. I would say every 1 in 3 visits, they've gotten our order wrong. We've paid a few times for supreme tacos and instead received regular tacos in the drive-thru. So of course we don't notice it until we get home to eat to realize that yet again, we've been ripped off. They are also very stingy about handing out taco sauce. They make you count how many you need and if you forget to ask for some, you're out of luck. They went through a renovation a couple years back so the place was upgraded to feel nicer inside and the drive-thru also looks modern, but it seems the manager has forced them to be very stingy with those sauces and the employees still make way too many mistakes without double-checking their orders before handing them out the drive-thru window. Lesson Learned: Go inside where you have time to check your order before leaving.
(2)Edward D.
Ben here only once, It was after a Rockies game late in the evening. Of course Taco Bell is open very late, so this was the place to go. I have always enjoyed the product from there. Now this location is hard to rate because this was my first and last time there since I do not live by there.

All TBs are generally the same, whether you get your fix in Omaha or Portland. I generally go to the one on Federal/I-70 b/c it's close to my house. Now that they have their Fresca menu, I don't feel AS guilty when I am "forced" to eat here by the 3-headed demon that lives inside my gut. Amazingly enough, the fresca items DO taste fresca-er than the regular stuff and dare I say, almost healthy? Too bad they don't offer the mexican pizza as a fresca version.
(4)Doug Y.
On a dare.... The Taco Loco Supreme! Hahahahaha!!!! I'd like to congratulate the unbelievable culinary genius that invented this masterpiece throwback homage to the 70's! "Hey man, that was one hellacious doobie bro! Let's like go to 7-11 and get some Slurpees to pour our Cuervo in and oh yeah! some Taco flavored Doritos. Then we can go to Taco Bell and get a bag of tacos and come back here and pig out on our munchies! Did you get extra sauce? Cool. Wait watch out... Dude! You sat on the Doritos dick wad! You smashed them man! You know ... what if we like licked the outside of these tacos and then stuck them into the smashed Doritos bag!!! that would be like soooo F-ing good! Hey! WTF! No man! Don't lick my taco dude! Just lick your own!" For two bucks, you could get an incredibly flavored marinated "actual" meat taco in a hand made "corn" tortilla (as opposed to this so orange it would stain your hands if we didn't put it in this cardboard sleeve bastard monstrosity) at hundreds of spots around Denver. If, you're not too drunk or too flavor challenged to care that is. Wise up. PS I upped them a star because although still pretty trashed, at least it wasn't AS bad as the last time i was here... almost 5 years ago. Taco bell food is still the non-value that it has grown to become.

It's 3 am. You're hungry. Or Drunk. (Please Walk There.) Or just getting home from a long-ass Trans-Atlantic flight. Taco Bell is there. It's fast. And it's OPEN. You know what to expect. And if you don't eat 46 Soft Tacos and a Bean Burrito, you probably won't "Get Your Runs at the Border." They even have some semi-decent, non-greasy options: Chicken Quesadilla (Hold that weird mayonnaisey sauce, please.) And let's face it: Their Taco Salad pretty much rocks. (In the less than $6 range, anyhow.) And if you don't eat that Taco Shell Bowl, it's relatively healthy. No it's not. But it's hella good. Plus, the hot sauce packets have those random little sayings on them, which will send you into fits of giggles no matter which of those states-of-mind up there that you're in. The 3 am offerings are somewhat limited 'round here. I'll take Taco Bell.
(3)David H.
I gotta tell ya....this Taco Bell here rocks.....there enchirito's are Sooooo good.....the anticipation nearly causes me an anxiety attack everytime I just ponder the thought of ordering from here....and the gal at the window (on wensday eves)....she invented the word "MELT"....(the way she fondels your hand when she gives you your change back should be illlll-legal Jack)....I head striaght to 7/11 with lighning speed after such an experience, just for a LiL cooling off period....."The Fabulous Slerpee"...yes Sir. (In fact....its slicker than a Jo Barry employee leaving the stall....after say....an hour)
