Provided by DexKnowsToday, MARCH 19, 2012 my kids and I ordered 6 Flour Taco's for dinner and picked them up. I'm not a fan of this particular restaurant-I was a loyal customer(for 16,17 years) of the Douglas location and since that has closed I am forced to go to the East Grand T.T.The point of my review is to let the public know that my kids and I all had diarrea this evening after eating the taco's we purchased from this location. I was very upset by this and called and spoke to a female manager that sounded less than concerned or troubled by the fact that I wanted to let her know the flour taco's that my family had eaten from there were tainted in some form or fashion and my suggestion was for her to maybe check her meat and or utensils used in the kitchen. The manager said the diarrea was caused by the beef and bean mixture, that some people develop diarrea from eating that in combination and our sickness was due to that, not their food. I've had no other complaints she said.Then hung up.

Provided by DexKnowsAfter reading all the Great reviews I thought how could I lose?Apparently those who are writing the reviews must work at tasty Taco or own the restaurants. The food is terrible nothing Mexican about this place.No Fish TacosNo Carna Asada TacosNo Pork Tacos, etc. etc. etc.If you want a taco or burrito made with hamburger/ground beef in it, this is the Bland place for you.
