Taco Cabana customer service, quality of food

Waited 20 minutes with no line. Sat at both the ordering menu & window for 8-10 minutes each before anyone greeted me. Cashier/manager was rude too when I finally tried to order. I had to request my correct order 3 times! The first time I asked for the side of refried beans and beans & cheese taco I ordered. She gave me charro beans. Then I asked again for my correct order. She only gave me refried beans. Finally after a 3rd request she finally gave the bean and cheese taco. This is not the first time, so I know to check my bag because it is almost always wrong. The food was terrible! The reason why I keep coming back even with the customer service being bad all of the time is because the food is usually good. The rice was hard and dried up. The refried bean and charro beans had a funky taste. The corn tortillas on my street tacos were dry and crumbling. I made a complaint and the manager said that they were short staffed. Also should I mention that I have complained in the past about the workers not using gloves when handling food, and the next time I went the windows were blacked out. This time really does it for me, and I do not plan to go back. I will warn everyone I know.

I ordered on line today for food at Taco Cabana. I normally just go through the drive thru to pick up the food. The food was not ready. They told me the manager said I had to go inside to pick up the food instead of using the drive thru.l I am disabled and this is hard for me. I did go inside, my order was not ready. They had trouble finding my order. I just left very angry.

Taco Cabana food issues/ quality and missing items

I ordered online through Taco Cabana website. It was for delivery and was the closest location to my home. Less than 3 miles. I was not feeling great but needed to eat. I ordered and paid, food was to come in an hour. Then I find out it's through Door Dash.
It took more than an hour and a call to Door Dash to find out where my order was. Food arrived in a styrofoam container, no bag and chips/tortillas were missing. I asked the driver where were my items. Said that was all. Opened the container. Food was cold and congealed. Rice and guacamole looked old. Not happy.
I could not reach customer service. They did not answer. Nor did they call me back. I have not been able to submit request for refund because that part of the website is disabled. Totally not going to go back.

Taco Cabana bad customer service

I went to order a Steak Fajita meal with rice and beans for my husband and the rude blonde lady in the drive thru at 10:16pm on May 7, 2019 at Taco Cabana on Rufe Snow and Loop 820 in North Richland Hills, Texas had the nerve to tell me that they no longer carried that item on their menu. I went up to window to clarify and she was even more rude to me telling me that she had already told me twice. I told her there is nothing wrong with making sure and i drove off. My husband was not happy and called the store at approximately 10:20pm and a guy by the name of Travis did state that they did have steak fajitas and that they were not going anywhere anytime soon. This is really bad service and the fact that the blonde lady was super rude to me for loving your food breaks my heart. Please fix this I really love your food and so does my husband.

Taco Cabana breakfast tacos

I keep asking myself WHY DO I CONTINUE TO GO THERE!?!?! Truth is the food is good. BUT the service sucks! Its ridiculous to wait 20 minutes in line for 4 potato and bacon tacos. And when you see the pictures of the tacos I ordered that would have taken 5 minutes! This happens all the time! The Taco Cabana at Hwy 290 and Tidwell in Houston, TX is the worst! The managers are of no help either!

My husband and myself went to eat dinner at the taco cabana at 10326 north freeway Houston, Tx 77060 which we never get to go out to eat anymore. We save a little out of each of our paycheck to pay for our dinner and we go out to eat 1 a month. I regret dining at this Taco Cabana. We placed our order then proceeded to wait which by the way our wait time wa...

Taco Cabana manager cesar gutierrez

First off management has a bad communication skills, no one communicates and I also have understood that you shouldn't have favorite employees, or have girlfriends working with you, taking same days off and vacations, the cook is the gm girlfriend, but I can't bring my boyfriend to work with me ! She get benefits of not doing her complete job . And making her 40hrs and getting paid more than anyone without any previous experience. Giving employees free food & talking nasty words to employees assistant manager showing homemade porn videos to employees, like it's a work area ! Gm treats employees bad when his girlfriend and him get into heated arguement .

Taco Cabana taco cabana employee

This is the second time that I've driven through Taco Cabana (Houston, TX) So. Wayside & Gulf Freeway and was told that that there was no food ready for my order. I admit it was early in the morning and that's why I didn't fuss but I ordered (2) crispy tacos and the first time and I was told that the ground meat was not ready and the second visit was today Apr 23, 2019 and I was told that the ground meat was ready but there was no crispy shells and the cook was not there to cook them. Before I could say okay I want to order something else she just said okay and ignored me and cut off the speaker. I knew it was the same person by her attitude and voice. I couldn't back up so I drove forward and stopped and asked her, her name and said that I wanted to place an order and you cut me off and was very rude. She goes in on me and says it wasn't me you talked to last time I'm not the only person at this window and I said I don't know what's going on and I'm sorry you're having a bad day. These employees need to know that someone will make time to say something about their behavior, I'm not that hungry to put up with that and besides I don't want anyone spitting in my food it's not worth it!

Taco Cabana dirty

This location is not very clean, I am very disappointed in what your store looks like. I am so used to going into to clean Taco Cabana but this one is so dirty. I hate to say filthy but it is. The bathrooms are so dirty like if the floor hadn't been moped and the walls its better if I keep it to myself because my words are not very nice. Please clean your restaurant.

Good morning, I am one usually not to complain. If I do, I try to do it in the best solution way possible. With that being said I'm emailing on here versus social media. I took my daughter and niece to Taco Cabana off 183 and Industrial in Euless this morning to get what they love best, BEAN AND CHEESE TACOS. Well when we drove up to the window at 9:12AM...

Taco Cabana customer service and competency

We visited the LONGVIEW Texas store yesterday. I ordered 6 flautist with guacamole as my two included sauces. I had to argue with the trainee and the store manager that I should not be charged. My receipt said tent table # 10 but my actual table tent was #18. After about 25 minutes, I got my 6 flautist but my husbands dinner did not come for another 20 min and only after I confronted the checkout. She asked me if he had soft or hard tacos. We were the only couple in the restaurant. A small family already had their order. There was a car waiting for food in the drive thru and finally got their food after our order. When we were leaving, we saw the drive thru customers abandoning their long wait. Used to be one of our favorites and with taco Buenos closing, you would think TC would step it up. I am not sure, your staff in the Longview TX store even knows the difference between tacos, flautist, or any of the other menu offerings. Furthermore there was salsa all over the napkin dispenser so you could not get a clean napkin. The service salsa bar was filthy-we won't be back to the Longview location. Laurie ONeal

Taco Cabana unethical behavior and food

11/03/2018 @ 9:45 am 2347 E. Southcross San Antonio
My husband and I ordered tacos and I ask for two tacos with bacons well done, I said almost burnt. We I received my tacos the bacons was half cooked, primarily raw, I took it back to the manager and she said it looked fine on the grill, I told her she must need glasses and to just give my money back. The manager was very rude before I made the remake and acted like she didn't do anything. I refuse to go to this location, that employee should not be working with food or having any type of customer contact

Taco Cabana service

Every Taco Cabana I have gone ton is awesome, this one isn't, wasn't. Location is Manachaca and Slaughter Ln., Austin.
The condiments bar was dirty and low, this was at 1:30 PM, Saturday. It looked like yesterday's left overs. Needed service. That's the main complaint I have, except delivery was slow and the tortilla I was served was cold and falling apart in the middle of my fajita.

Taco Cabana service

The sign on the door states that drive thru closes at 1 a.m. @ 12:27 a.m last night my husband and our 2 y.o drive thru the restaurant sat at the speaker, no answer, we drove to the window the employee cleaning the line walked by and kept walking. So we drove through drive thru again to make sure we weren't delusional. Still no answer drove back to the window the employee who was cleaning came to the window rudely and did the cut off sign with her hand at her throat. I noticed that the computer in drive thru was already logged off. We drive off i called the restaurant to get the 1800 complaint line number the employee who answered the phone tried to argue with me that they were in the cooler and their headset turned off and still would not give me the number. I told her it was fine and that i would call in the morning. Now after leaving Whataburger we passed back by on the feeder going home. An employee has taken their car and parked it catacornered in front of the drive thru entrance so that no cars could enter
