  • Hope V.

    This Taco Bell is by far the best one I've been too. It's always clean inside and most of the staff is very friendly. They rarely mess up my order which is always a plus for fast food. It's not the best quality of course but it's exactly what you would expect of a fast food joint and I love it.

  • Joseph D.

    Taco Bell -- the two L's stand for 'Love' and 'Loathe'. Nasty non-Mexican food loaded with cheez and, as the Army would put it, 'Protein, Industrial, Meat-Based, Grade Delta'. Somehow Taco Bell food (when quote-fresh-unquote) strikes that balance between the sublime and the gorge-inducing. Why do I keep eating there? I don't know. Maybe it's comfort food, synapses triggered from the halcyon days of the 29 cent menu in college. Maybe it's that I love feeling bloated and tired for hours afterwards, like after Thanksgiving. Maybe it's the perfect crunch-and-squish consistency of a hard taco or a CrunchWrap. Or maybe it's just fun to show that the speed of light can, indeed, be exceeded by a Bean Burrito with two packets of Fire sauce added.

    As far as Taco Bell goes, this is among the best. Their produce is always fresh, their portions are large, their employees are usually friendly, and their dining room is clean. But of course, it IS Taco Bell. One of the best features is that they are open later than most things in Columbia.

    By far, the best Taco Bell I have ever been to. The food is pretty typical of any taco bell, but the staff is SO FRIENDLY! They really make you feel welcome and keep the place absurdly clean. I love this Taco Bell.

    I just moved to Columbia,MD & visited this place on first and last time on this location. First of all, cashier was a RACIST BI**H. There were 9 items in my order and when the order was ready, I was putting Sauces according to my needs and that BI**H said that I had to take some sauces out of my bag and she mentioned that people of my race takes most of sauces and she has to fill the sauces frequently. I think that's her job and everyone has their own taste and that's why they come to TACO BELL. I RETURNED THE ORDER and addressed this issue to the manager but he was even worst than her. He did not say "Sorry" or offer me the customer service I was looking for. Not even that did not even had a courtesy to ask me if I need to get money back. He simply took the order back without saying any single thing. WHAT A SHAMELESS AND STUPID MANAGER AND CASHIER THIS LOCATION GOT!!!

    I was going to give this place 4 stars...because, come on, it's Taco Bell. It's not exactly fine dining. But the service here is so spectacular I had to give it 5. I've been to way too many fast food joints where it seems the staff would sooner spit on you than serve you. But the staff here is always super friendly and accommodating. And they're always quick and more importantly they actually get the orders right! I'm always pleased with their service and the food. I wish all Taco Bells were like this one.

  • Tracy T.

    aright so this was one of the only options at 1 am on a Sunday night. And even tho they took my order correctly on the screen, somehow 15 minutes later at the pickup they didn't have one meal included in the order. and when I asked if we could just get that real quick they said I'd have to get back in line. Props to the drivethru guy for being funny and attentive at least but you left off an entire meal completely. not cool.

  • Seong L.

    This place is down the street from my house and I love coming here late at night when every where else is closed. The drive thru stays open until 2am! The tacos and burritos are rather well put together. It's Taco Bell. You're not coming here for the dining experience, you're coming to fulfill your late night munchies! And this place never fails to hit the spot. Like most fast food restaurants, some Taco Bells I've been to have employees who are rather unpleasant and rude. This place is not one of them! Whether I come at 3pm or 1am, the person taking my order is always professional and nice, which I can really appreciate. Also, their sirarcha quesoritos are a MUST TRY if they still have them. They're maybe the best thing I've ever had from Taco Bell.

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.
