Tortillas were cold and my Baja shrimp taco looked small and sad, although flavor inside was decent. Got two other flavors that weren’t very fresh tasting.

This location could definitely use some help. First time customer. Ordered 5 tacos and a churro online at 2:30, the form said it would be ready at 2:36. Got there at 2:45 and there were 2 people waiting for their pickup orders ahead of me & only one employee preparing the food. Eventually another employee came out from the back to help. Finally got the food by 3:05. Employee was very apologetic and gave me an extra taco for free after making a mistake preparing the cauliflower one. When I got home, I saw there were a few mistakes/omissions: 2 tacos had flour tortillas (I ordered all corn), I paid the extra $1 for the “stacked & Loaded guac” for one, but it was just wrapped in 2 flour tortillas with no guacamole. The ingredient quality of the tacos was totally good, & the churro was delicious, the employees just needed some more training to get the orders right and completed on-time.

Very disappointed, thought I would enjoy dinner out tonight so I order here, my tacos came out pretty fast which I thought was kind of strange because it was busy , and come to find out I get home ten minutes later and my tacos are very cold too tough and soggy!! I ordered six tacos and all were cold took one bite and attempted to heat them in the air fryer but it wasn't worth consuming. Only pics I have because I tosses the others before I called the store to no answer.

Do NOT go here unless you want to throw your money away. I ordered two baha shrimp tacos with a side of beans and a side of rice. I waited 30 minutes, only to be told they were out of rice… so I asked for either a refund or to substitute something else - they gave me a bag of stale chips. I still hadn’t gotten my food, so I waited another 10 minutes and my name was finally called. I’m handed the bag and look inside and there is only one taco… at this point it wasn’t worth my time to wait for another. So I leave and realize I don’t have the beans, go back in and they give me these (pictured) dried up, crusty beans that weren’t even 1/2 way filled. I get home to finally eat and my taco is in the wrong tortilla shell and it has 2 tiny pieces of shrimp on it and I had to spit the shrimp out because it was so salty. Not only are they understaffed, but the people who do work there do not know how to run a kitchen. However, I don’t put the blame on the workers. Todd and Carin, why don’t you take a break from your big shot lifestyle and lake cruises from time to time to help out at YOUR restaurant? Or better yet, pay people a little more than a poverty wage during a global pandemic and get some qualified workers…

We ordered 7 tacos around 8pm on a Friday. There were a few people waiting, but it wasn’t too busy. The cashier mumbled to the point we could barely understand her. We then waited over 40 minutes for our food, which was served cold and wasn’t good at all. That’s almost six minutes PER TACO. I could make my own from scratch faster. Other Rusty Taco locations are great, but definitely AVOID this one.

Still waiting....35 minutes in for my order as I sit and wait... appears to be cooking 1 order on the stove top at a time package it up clean the stove and start the next order. 3 employees during the lunch rush? Hmmmm look at the tickets pulling up!!! This is wrong do not go here. The guy next to me placed an order 20 min before he got here and he has been sitting next to me for 20 min.

ordered 4 tacos was told it would be 5 minutes. after over 30 minutes I asked for a refund. decided to give them another shot today as I love the tacos and after 4 minutes waiting at the register with zero employees asking for my order, zero employees even acknowledged me so I walked out. if you work in customer service, give customer service. pretty simple. won't be back.

Do not go to this Rusty Taco. Went on a Friday evening- they were clearly understaffed and did not have their stuff together. No disrespect to the staff, the manager was from a different location and filling in, but clearly his boss did not plan accordingly for serving people at this place. I waited 70 minutes, yes, seventy minutes for my food and it never came.
There were many others waiting over an hour as well, constantly being skipped over so that the drivers drivers could get their 10+ taco orders while everyone else sat and waited. The staff were trying their best, but whoever manages these restaurants needs to seriously reevaluate how they manage their stores. Also took me 15 minutes to get a refund. I will not be returning.
