I am giving this place 5 stars because it is a affordable food establishment near USC that does not have a contract with USC from what I can tell. Much of the food you buy a la carte and not with a undergrad dining plan at USC is good and fairly priced. But much of the food at U$C is expensive, which annoys me mucho. Sometimes you do not want to walk too far and have some cheap food and do not want to get ripped off by the catering trucks feeding on undergrads that charge $ 12 for sandwich. Taco Bell is perfect. Service and food at this location was as fine as any Taco Bell I have been to.

Filthy floors tables bathroom drink area. Gross!!! Don’t you think it’s just as dirty in the back where they are preparing our food. Really bad. One thing I do like is they use gloves to prepare food!

Best customer service in a drive thru ever ! Employees always seem so polite, happy, nice and not like in a sad or crappy mood. My orders are ALWAYS correct and they’re quick !

I visited this Taco Bell for breakfast several days ago. I was super amazed by a young man who took my order — in an extremely polite, friendly and professional way. All that sudden, I though I was in Bottega Louie! I order grilled soft taco and some other stuff for my friends. It’s good… no surprise… good for a peaceful breakfast. I got my food to go.

Worst fast food restaurant i have been to so far. I went in today with my husband after having fun at the museum. The customer service was okay it was just the amount of solicitors that came in to the restaurant didnt even get a chance to take a bite from my food when one after another approched to my table some were asking for money others were asking for my food. I gave a taco to a lady who sat right next to me staring and asking for food but it Killed My Appetite when two other men started to approch my table as well smelled so bad. Its so ghetto and loud many people just walk in and out mainly homeless. Even after leaving the restaurant the same people where standing right outside and asking for more money and my left over food which i did not even end up eating!

Had to ask for an item missing from the order. The floors were so sticky I could feel my boots peel off with every step. After asking one of the employees if they had a First Aid Kit, I got a blank stare like I had asked a 5 year old how to solve a calculus problem.

Simple and Sweet Pros: Alright lets be real, its fast food so it can only be so good right? I think its the best fast food around the area(given that there is only togos and taco hell). Its located right next to USC so it helps students who are on a tight schedule(or budget) get fed quickly. I personally say the best items on the menu are the quesaritos and the AM crunchwraps. The interior is ehh but the cool part is that they have USC Trojans engraved into their wall so that’s pretty cool! Don’t forget its budget friendly! Cons: Its fast food. Don’t go in there expecting healthy, you can throw that all out the window. The neighborhood is sorta ghetto but ehh it builds character.

Believe it or not, this is one of he BEST Taco Bell’s in the city! They actually make your taco’s with enough meat in them to not need a microscope to see your meal. Maybe it’s because of the USC connection, but whatever. When I feel the need to eat junk food this joint wins hands down!

ALERT: FOODPOISONING!!! My girlfriend & I had an excellent day planned, visit the Natural History Museum, & then enjoy some live music at the African American Museum. Didn’t happen! Went to this forsaken place, had a chicken quesadilla meal and literally right after I stepped out of the store, I fell INCREDIBLY ill. My stomach was upset for hours, I threw up a few times and we essentially had our day ruined. Seeing that this is a Taco Bell, and one with awful reviews, I probably should have been more cautious in my selection but, if you are able to go ANYWHEREELSE, I advise that you do. This is a university town so there are plenty of options. The anguish isn’t worth it despite how enticing the menu might look. Look elsewhere, you might just be preventing yourself from what I could honesty call the worst food positioning I have ever experienced.

Dano’s Quick Review: pro: 1– They make the food like it is ordered(most of the time) 2– The workers have a passable work ethic to do their jobs for the most parts 3– Mountain Dew Baja Blast Slushy… Perfect Beverage, for the summer. Cons; 1– Slow during rush hours, but to be expect, but if somehow you could defeat this aspect of your day to day activities, you guys would be ripping all the Tbells in LA 2– Little mistakes like no adding sour cream, or not putting fire sauce in the bag. that can’t happen. Those are the little things that keep this whole taco bell thing working 3. Narrow drive through.

This Taco Bell, located across the street from the western entrance of USC, is a usual students on their way to and from class. Selection is similar to any other Taco Bell. The one thing that always annoyed me about this spot is that their sauces aren’t out for you to help yourself. First world problems… I try to avoid this spot because it’s bad for my girlish figure, but it’s nice to indulge every now and then. My faves: 7-layer burrito, XXL Grilled Stuft Burrito(Chicken), Cheesy Gordita Crunch, Volcano Burrito/Taco Now I’m hungry…

Like any other Taco Bell… Not healthy or particularly high-quality, but dependably delicious and cheap as titz. Sometimes i just f***in’ CRAVE Taco Bell. No shame. Friendly employees. Never had a problem with the service here. Minus points for: –Loud humming noise characteristic of fast food restaurants… no music whatsoever! Work on the atmosphere, management!!! –Not being open late. This place would get way more business if it were closer to 24-hour…

I have to walk from my office across the campus to get here so I expect a good experience, right? WRONG!!! First of all, the cashier is trying to rush me to order, then I wait 10 minutes when there are others who came in after me already in and out with my food. So what I ordered extra cheese and onions and sauce, which by the way I didn’t get, that is not rocket science. the staff was rude, some looked straight out of work-release. The manager was acting as cook and still messed up the order which she says was prepared, and she didn’t know where it went. Trust me, it was never prepared, I was watching the kitchen straight away. Still, she tried to cheat me out of my Cinnamon Twists. Overall the taste was lacking and the order was wrong, but because I had to gimp back to my workspace, I wouldn’t know until I ate it. Poor taco Bell, never again here.

Who in the world checks Unilocal for Taco Bell? Well my review for KFC on Fig received a useful vote, so I suppose some people make very informed decisions, even with fast food. So yeah this is Taco Bell. It offers your typical Americanized«Mexican» «food» that you expect from a Taco Bell. Yep, Taco Bell where the beef isn’t beef and the cheese isn’t cheese(Yep, real cheese will grow mold quickly. This cheese is actually similar to cardboard — funny process, you should check it out sometime). So with these disadvantages that come with being part of a national chain, does this Taco Bell deliver exceptional service? Not at all. One time I was sitting here, doing work during a non-busy hour. An employee shuts off the drink machine before my third refill. Another time, I was getting my drink for the first time. I had to dump out a cup full of Mountain Dew Baja Blast because the syrup needed to be changed. Before I could pick a different drink, the employee behind the counter shuts off the machine. Does the smart guy who runs this place realize that fountain drinks cost a few cents to fill? Does he realize that being total assholes to your customers is never a sound business strategy? This made me wonder what the hell am I doing at Taco Bell — and I can’t really answer. Avoid this and any other Taco Bells — your body will thank you for it. If you absolutely need to eat out and you live west of USC, Togo’s is the better choice.

Taco Bell. USC. That’s pretty much it. I remember my college days, Taco Bell used to be on my food pyramid. Plus, being a college kid and refund checks go low, this and cup noodles was it. Not sure how the spoiled kids fare … maybe they have their parents deliver steaks to their door-steps? Either way, Taco Bell… is just cheap, magical food! Get that Doritos Loco taco, you WILLNOT be disappointed!

No go get some and get back to studying so you can get that degree, get that job then get that paycheck to eat somewhere else! Maybe not in this economy so taco bell it is.

Taco Bell is Taco Bell. In the war of Mexican options nearby, I always felt like this side of campus was always screwed. But late night food needs have few options, and this one is exclusively it if you’re coming out of E-quad in this direction. To be fair, it’s pretty clean and staff was always polite despite the constant flow of delirious bums and snotty college kids.

Solid 4 stars. The service is extremely fast. I always go for one of the $ 2 menu deals. The chicken burrito one tastes the best(especially with hot sauce) but the quantity is the least. Double decker taco is the best value for you money, but the beans might make you pass a lot of gas later. Gordita supreme is the«healthest» of the 4, but the soft skin breaks too easy. 5 layer beef burrito is the«unhealthiest» of the 4, and sometimes they put too much sour cream on it. Amazing with one of their new sauces though. I always add a soft potato taco on top of the order to round out the meal. $ 3.17 well spent. The store has a funky seating layout, and sometimes they’re cleaning so half the shop’s closed off. The restroom requires a token to get in, and isn’t very clean. The employees are nice enough though.

I give this taco bell 3 stars because of addition 4 stars for food(I LOVE taco bell), 4 stars for service, –5 stars for the fact for taco bell is really bad for you and I shouldn’t eat it. The point is that I come here more often than i should and I walk in and the line always has 8 people in it. They are doing so well over there that they always make the line move super fast and the orders come out fast too. AND they listen when I say 7 layer burrito no guacamole! Which is really exciting for me since I’m allergic to guacamole and if its in there I can’t eat :( Good job Vermont Taco Bell!
