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.

This place sucks. How the hell do you under cook Tacobell. Then have the sack to tell me its normal. Former employee chatting it up with current employee at the counter talking about how he use to steal constantly and got fired for giving food away. Why the fuck are you even in here? Moron!

I swung by this deceitfully standard looking Taco Bell location about a week back. The voice of God, no, not Morgan Freeman, but a distinguished older gentleman happily asked how I was doing. I reported back my momentary condition and proceeded to order the usual: two crunchy tacos and a "nachos," or stale chips that have been sitting under a heat lamp, uncovered, long after their disposal time and a questionable cup of melted "cheese product," if you will, from a container that probably hasn't been cleaned since 2001. You're probably thinking that my poor choices ended there, but they didn't. It was roughly 10 A.M., which puts me in a category with very few fast food aficionados such as myself who can actually stomach processed dog food at the ass-crack of dawn. Moreover, I was only in the area because I had just gotten out of traffic court. Anyways, the nice sounding man seeing to drive-through operations suggested that I might want a drink, perhaps a Mountain Dew. No, I reported, I have a 24-case of Mountain Dew in my back-seat. Besides, it's 10 o'clock and I'm already on my second round. I approached the window and was greeted by the kind face of a man that could really be anyone's uncle. Would I like some sauce?, he inquired. Absolutely I would, hot. How many packets? Now I am as American as they come. I love fast food, waste, and everything in excess. I drive a Saturn, which I suppose is only semi-American. But the fact that this nice man wanted an exact number was jaw-dropping, humbling. As you and I are well aware, driving off with too few packets can ruin the meal and, consequently, your day. But giving out too many packets was where his real concern remained; you could see the fear of food waste in his thoughtful eyes. This guy was anything but your standard fast food employee. Floored by his demand for a numerical value, I hesitantly answered: four, I'll have four. The man replied, well I'm glad you didn't ask for any more--I can only count to four! Again, floored. What humor, what personality, what class! This guy wasn't your everyday disgruntled fast-food worker handing you your bag of shit with a glare and a half-assed "have a nice day" that we can loosely interpret to "fuck off and die of cardiac arrest, you glutton." No, he wasn't some snot-faced bitch with a poorly-done cursive name tattoo on the side of her neck and four-inch acrylic nails that you know have been places you don't even want to CONSIDER... No, this was a modern gentleman, a modern day Romeo! I thanked the mysterious, environmentally-conscious man as he handed me my plastic bag of filth and drove off. As soon as I hit traffic, I began to assemble my first taco, dumping two sauce packets with insightful little sayings on it as I was driving, texting, leaning over the passenger seat rummaging for a student file to find an address, and attempting to open my Mountain Dew without ruining my no-chip manicure that I couldn't afford before I went on a vacation that I couldn't afford. Now I'll be the very first to admit, there has been a time or two that I've left Taco Bell more disappointed than when the Backstreet Boys came out with Millennium. No, more disappointed than I was with Juan Pablo on the season finale of the Bachelor. But nothing can be said to explain the deliciousness that ensued when I bit into that first taco. Loaded with just the right amount of ingredients, this taco was the perfect mix of week-old meat that isn't even meat to begin with, green shit designed to look and taste like lettuce, and shredded cheese scooped off of the sticky floor by hands that had more likely than not ignored the "employees must wash hands before returning to work" sign. No matter, those hands that knew the perfect ingredient to shell ratio were a gift from God Himself. I finished my meal while winding through traffic only to discover that there was a wet nap provided to wipe the tears of pain and regret for my order off of my disgusting, greasy face. How thoughtful, I decided, it's not every day that you're provided with a wet nap at Taco Bell. And it's always nice to sanitize yourself with a quick European shower after polishing off a meal like that, if you know what I'm saying. As I crumbled up my putrid food wrappers and flung them into the back seat where all food wrappers go to mold out and finish their sad existence before meeting their monthly burial in a gas station garbage, I pondered my experience. I drove into the fraudulently beaming winter sun and thought to myself, what a beautiful day. You, Woodstock Taco Bell, are beautiful.

Pretty well run location. Parking can be a problem with such a small lot; additional parking in the strip mall lot nearby. Facility is clean, including the restrooms. Food is better at this location than the majority of other Taco Bells. Service is good. Dining area is ok. Drive thru is quick. Never had a wrong food order. Bonus points for location on Rt. 47. Best time to have quick service inside is off peak hours.

I won't ever go to this Taco Bell again. The manager obviously doesn't care about making the customers happy. I wanted a large Baja blast half slurpy half pop and she wouldn't allow it. I'm a manager over at Wendy's and I would do anything to make a customer happy. I wonder how many refills she hands out to people without charge. she could have just charged me for a Baja blast and put a little pop in there. I was here not to long ago and an employee did it before. It's not that the manager can't do it, she just doesn't want to. What ever happened to making the customer happy? You are a shitty manager.
(1)Lex B.
When stuck in Woodstock for a wedding (why else would a city girl be there...), and you want tacos at 1 AM (and the taco restaurant near your hotel closes at 9PM), you'll be thankful this taco bell is open until 3 AM!

Whoever runs this place bumped it up a star (or two) from your typcial Taco Bell; Fun trivia game with a food prize, after-dinner mints, employees who are having fun all the time, clean, quick and accurate service, etc. Typical Taco Bell food, but they sure do have a lot of options nowadays. If you can't find something you like, you just don't like food. For example, the grilled stuffed steak burrito is absolutely delish. I'd buy that anywhere. The tacos and other cheap eats aren't going to blow anybody away, but they are still cheap (relatively speaking). Six bucks elsewhere will get you a sandwich, here, make the right choices and it'll stuff you 'til you puke. Update (just to emphasize something I've already said): Friendly employees! Went through drive-in, cashier was nice, as expected, what I didn't expect was while waiting two other employees would walk by the window, smile, and wave at me. Umm, I stop by maybe once a month, and either they somehow recognized me, or they are just so darned nice it's amazing. Update: Wi-Fi. Free, but despite strong signal, painfully slow. Only one public electrical outlet. The fixed-position seating (all but one chair) is NOT designed for large people. Uncomfortable.
(4)Lia L.
Yes it's fast food and yes it's unhealthy, but compared to the other fast food restaurants in town that I and my husband visit from time to time, the service is prompt and courteous and our orders are much more accurate compared to McDonald's.
(4)A B.
It's Taco Bell at it's best. Food is great and people are extremely friendly and nice.
(5)Nando R.
Really disgusting. I ordered 2 burrito supremes because they are only 89 cents but I would rather have starved. The burritos were practically cold, had almost no meat, too much sour cream and as I bit into the second one feel like maybe there were some "added" ingredients. My stomach hurts now and I am considering filing a formal complaint. I might just puke what I ate out.

Went through drive-in, cashier was nice, as expected, what I didn't expect was while waiting two other employees would walk by the window, smile, and wave at me. Umm, I stop by maybe once a month, and either they somehow recognized me, or they are just so darned nice it's amazing. Update: Wi-Fi. Free, but despite strong signal, painfully slow. Only one public electrical outlet. The fixed-position seating (all but one chair) is NOT designed for large people. Uncomfortable.

Yes it's fast food and yes it's unhealthy, but compared to the other fast food restaurants in town that I and my husband visit from time to time, the service is prompt and courteous and our orders are much more accurate compared to McDonald's.

It's Taco Bell at it's best. Food is great and people are extremely friendly and nice.

Really disgusting. I ordered 2 burrito supremes because they are only 89 cents but I would rather have starved. The burritos were practically cold, had almost no meat, too much sour cream and as I bit into the second one feel like maybe there were some "added" ingredients. My stomach hurts now and I am considering filing a formal complaint. I might just puke what I ate out.
