Tasty Taco's made me sick.

Today, 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.

Are you kiddng me?

After 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.

There's just nothing like the Tasty Taco "Orginal"...so fresh and yummy! It hits the spot. Even our out of town relatives love to get there there "fix" at Tasty Tacos. It's affordable, and the can't beat this place for Mexican food.

Mmm Good

Tasty Tacos has always been one of my favorites. When we visit DSM we like to stop there. Nothing like it anywhere else in Iowa.
