Reviews of Taco Bell Shortland Street

S.

It was decent. Got the nachos, burrito and drink. Not too good not too bad. Although I loved that the burrito was well packed. Doesn't fall off while you eat through it. Nachos were nice. There sauces were good too.

J.

So damn good! I can't stress enough how good it is to have somewhere that serves your typical cruchy Tacos. I am a huge mexican fan and Taco Bell hits the spot for me nicely. I ordered almost one of each off the menu and wasn't disappointed at all. I'm also someone who can be quite picky but no issues here

r.

Tex-mex food. Food was alright- got the chicken crunch wrap and some chips. Could of had more sauce in the middle as it got alittle dry rather than all sauce on the sides of the wrap, chips were nicely mildly spiced (I don't think anything there is particularly spicy). Perfectly fine service from the counter staff and the dining area was clean so I'll return here again at some stage.

D.

Service fantastic... fries fantastic. Tacos and Mexican burritos 🤮 stick to El paso

G.

Yeah nah, despite how much I like the cheap & junk food treat experience when I'm back in the States, this is just an overly priced rendition of it with none of that joy. I tried to get one of the cheapest options to compare what I most recently had in the US of a beef and bean burrito and felt even less full for more of price. Whilst the restaurant looks snazzy, they've got a free digital jukebox to control the tunes, and I applaud them for what I hope are more sustainable sauce packets than the plastic ones in the US, it doesn't have the same guilty pleasure appeal.

D.

Staff was really friendly and the food pretty good. Haven't had Taco Bell since being in the US 4 years ago, so this was a nice surprise as it was better the US' version.

E.

It's always very clean and tidy at this location. Easy to order at kiosks. Heads up, if you are used to the north American style of taco bell. The only things that are the same are; packet sauces and the nacho cheese and the mince. Safest to order the soft tacos to get ur authentic tbell fix. The nacho chips are coated with this very strange and sticky spice mix- instead of plain. It takes some getting used to.

B.

Every table was dirty. Food was nice and fresh however when eating in you are handed a paper bag which you have to tear open to eat off to avoid the left over food on the table of other patrons. I'd suggest taking your own hand sanitiser and spray and wipe I'd tpuvare worried about hygiene.

S.

Loved it. Service friendly and prompt, food great. Loved the idea of ringing the bell if you enjoyed your meal. Staff appreciated it.

p.

Finally Taco Bell opened in Auckland near queen street. Ambiance is good. Staff’s are friendly and polite. Ordered Cheesy Gordita Crunch and Chicken Quesadilla. Love the red hot fire sauce. Hope to visit again.

S.

Second time ever at a taco bell. I wanted to ding the bell but i was shy then as we were walking out my boyfriend rang the bell and gave me a fright but it was so cool to hear everyone cheer and get excited about it 😂 so weird but cool also

p.

I've been coming here often for lunch at work, better value than Mad Mex and the quality is very consistent with each visit. I like they give you free guacamole unlike their competition. The self serve kiosks are super easy to use and the table buzzers are a welcome addition. I'd like to see nutritional information on their website.

R.

I know, I know I'm reviewing a fast food joint but I have to say I was pleasantly surprised at how edible my meal was. It wasn't horrible at all and I didn't feel awful/guilty afterwards. I think the bowl is the way to go here and I would order it again. Lack lustre customer service.

K.

Loved the food, Friendly staff. was there for the first time and don't know what to eat but thanks to Jessica for the recommendation. Great Customer Service

s.

SO GOOD I LOVE TACO BELL!!!!!! i want to eat this every day until i die. i want to live and breathe taco bell forever. i recommended the pulled pork xx

J.

They forgot to give me one regular fries but gave me a large and a drink to make up for it - the staff were smart and efficient at their job and helpful, too :)

K.

they ran out of beef but otherwise I was pleasantly surprised for my first visit, was not expecting much but it was a good food stop and I'd go back

B.

First time to try, the NZ Tabo Bell store... comparative to the ones in the US... will come back!

H.

Finally got to try taco bell. And I am a fan. Hope to see them extend out to my home town of tauranga one day

a.

Best Tacos ,Nachos in the country ☑️☑️☑️☑️🥰🥰🥰🥰

H.

The food is very nice and specials. The this is my first time to eat tacos. It's tasty, but that's not really my type. I give it a four star because. The staff maybe just caused it to be easy the attitude is little little bit bad

j.

First experience here was great! Clean and tidy, and I enjoyed the food.

f.

First time and food is awesome.I was just expecting bigger tacos 🌮 I guess. Lol

G.

Been waiting 9 years for Taco Bell to come to New Zealand and finally they arrived! Tacos served here yummy, just as good as State site, back in Amarillo, Texas, USA. Taste every bit like what Mom used to prepare for us! You deserve more that Five Stars for both customer service and yummy Taco!

D.

I'll give 5 stars if it could be reasonable price and fast service

A.

The guac tastes like hand lotion.

a.

pretty tasty and priced ok, best Mexican in the area for value

C.

Mexican food, happens to jave late opening hours so easy to get a fix late at night food is pretty average but if you just want a quick bite it does the job

M.

Very Tasty fast food tale on Mexican Food, friendly staff

A.

Really almost no meat in their Crunchwrap~ Crunchwrap and tacos almost full of lettuce, not good balance

c.

i used to hate taco bell but the crunchwrap supreme i got from here went hard

S.

Great service and a cozy little shop with easy to use self service. Rating a 3 on account of high expectations and our own anticipation to try Taco Bell. I know it's fast food; but possibly an overrated brand rather than the individual branch. Unable to finish eating. Thank you to the staff for their service though 😊

A.

Music was too loud but the host Kevin was very friendly and efficient :)

A.

Tasty Mexican food. Not as fast as usual fast food places, but Mexican food is labour intensive, be ready for almost "restaurant" length wait times. Bring your phone as there's no entertainment except for the music.

N.

Great customer service here but you guys need to sell those cinnamon twists in bigger bags and also lower price. $ 2.50 for like 6 or 7 of them 8 if your lucky. Tiny little kiddie bags.

S.

The only drawback of the store is the smoky air inside. There must be something wrong with its kitchen vent. Update: I went today for lunch and the air upstairs still feels smoky.

G.

Fast service, nachos were bit dry but Grande Burrito was osm.

L.

Lunchtime - busy. Everything freshly made - good!

R.

Feeling like a good feed for a reasonable price then this is the place. Take away is a breeze with the self serving kiosks and you can choose your own song on the digital jukebox while you wait. Eat in is also clean and well laid out. Staff were helpful and friendly, can't really my experience there.

W.

Great service! Thumbs up to Warren and his team! GREAT JOB! Good food!

M.

Service was quick and easy!! My family and I enjoyed our meal here. The option to request music to play over the speakers is a nice touch ;) The crunch wrap was soo good. Mmmm

L.

Not how I remembered it from America when I was there make sure you park somewhere and walk in no street parking available.

D.

Pretty excited that a branch opened in the city! Ordered the crunchwrap supreme and burrito--pretty good and filling. Great deal for the price as well. Oh and they have this purple bell that you can ring when you’re satisfied with the food/service. Plus this “digital jukebox” where you can choose what song to play at the restaurant. Pretty cool. Will definitely be back :)

D.

Fast service, clean toilet.

W.

I was hesitant to try it having had it in the U.S. however since it's been about 15 years since I've had Taco Bell I had the Crunchwrap Supreme with Cinnamon Twists. It was really good from the taste to even the cheese on two taste that gives Taco Bell a signature taste. The service was great and everything was really clean. And even better it was not expensive. Also thanks Chavase for the amazing service! I'll definitely be back.

D.

I had a lot of preconceptions about Taco Bell largely from online. I decided to give it a try and it was surprisingly good. The burrito and chips were really tasty and reasonably priced. Will definitely be returning.

N.

SO GOOD customer service was 10/10. GOT TO RING THE BELL

B.

Ok food not a spicy as I was expecting

B.

I bought a Crunchwrap Supreme combo for $11.50. I was expecting a moderate to thick filling like advertised, but instead got a flat wrap. I also bought a Chocodilla for $2.90 and all I got was a small flat chocolate spread in a flatbread. Even a McDonald’s $2.00 Hash brown is more worth than that. But, the staff was nice and friendly though.

C.

Great place to start or finish a night in town.

J.

Fun experience but the portion sizes are underwhelming so don't expect an America-size meal. Just grab a doner kebab for a similar but bigger and tastier meal.

G.

Ripoff for sure, it's not going to take off at those prices as it costs $20 to get full vs $10 at other fast food places. They don't add ANY sauce when ordering delivery!? What is this catastrophe. Finally fork out the bucks and they can't even add the classic taco Bell sauce sachets. Come on guys

a.

It's alright I suppose, it's really salty even for fast food standards. I don't think we were really missing out on anything but definitely give it a try if you've been curious.

C.

It's what you'd want expect from somewhere that is so big its even in new Zealand but the main downside is the wait time, i don't know if it was just that night or if it's every day but it took so long for the food to be made, they did have two of the best things for when you're eating out, the screens where you order your food and the buzzer disc things that vibrate when your order is ready, overall it's about four stars 🌟🌟🌟🌟

a.

thank you kevin your customer service was great:)

r.

They slot of time to prepare food

R.

Service was slow food was good thou

T.

I mean it was better than I expected it to be. Long wait time but that is expected with a huge american chain opening here for the first time. Not a lot of seating so expect to have to take away if you're coming in at rush hour. All food that I tried was good and the menu is easy to navigate and decide.

M.

Nice atmosphere with lots of seating & great customer service, food was a tad too expensive for my liking but it was decent regardless ~

K.

Decent size, good vegetarian options, perfect spice level, average price for Mexican in Akl. Couldn't see the cheap cheese tacos I loved in the US, so it seems more like a standard Mexican takeaway than any special Taco Bell.

T.

I didnt get e coli 5 star

m.

I had a grande pork burrito and it was awesome but the crunch wrap Supreme was disappointing. I'd have to try more things but the place was clean and tidy and you can only get in the bathroom if you ask someone at the front for a key Pretty decently priced menu as well

G.

Nice, brand new place, with cheap Mexican food. It is defiantly just a fast-food chain kind of meal so you get what you pay for but something different to try from your average Maccas or Burger King. I really enjoyed the chicken quesadilla.

A.

Quick service, clean establishment and plenty of seating upstairs. Can choose your own music on a touchscreen jukebox thing which is awesome. If I had to rate fries from best to worst it would be Taco Bell, Kumara fries from burger fuel, McDonald's, KFC then burger king. You can get healthy (ish) menu items if you want and won't break the bank.

S.

Not too much of a vegan range yet. The double tacos I got as vegan choice was hardly any stuffing. No vegan cheese. Didn't feel the value for money

S.

The fries had nice spices but thought the rest of the food tasted pretty similar even though we got 3 different things each with different meat.

C.

Would be five stars but as NZ has been owned by Coca Cola no Mountain Dew Baja Blast, which has been a selling point according to all of my American Friends

n.

Loved the meals available there. First time ever going to taco bell, was exactly what you would expect from a taco bell.

J.

The food was good and was pretty similar to American Taco Bell but with a smaller menu. Although the food is good I feel it’s a bit overpriced

G.

The black bean vegetarian option on the nachos was average, a little more knowledge from the staff would have been great. the black beans have no sauce so was a bit dry and bland.

L.

Needs hand washing station like nandos

D.

Really fantastic service from Taylor and Stella, well looked after store and the food was mind blowing. Crunch wrap supreme is so good for the price, would happily go again.

J.

Really enjoyed the service and food here

L.

Pretty good, food is suuuper salty tho which I don't mind that much and it's pretty expensive for what you get but everything tastes good.

E.

great looking building and even better tasting menu! the food is fast, cheap and delicious. staff were really friendly!

W.

The crew here have way too much energy to be fast food workers! Keep up the good work

R.

The food here is very tasty in my opinion, I really enjoy eating here

T.

Decent tacos and mexican fries were good 👍🏻 toilets need access key from staff - that's a turn off.. 👎🏻

A.

For 10 dollars you can get a crunch wrap supreme meal, soooo good. Love this place.

k.

Nice food but expensive for what you get

A.

Nice place but food quality is low. Servings are too small. Not your money worth.

H.

Nice burritos and filling, but they were spicy. Not sure if they were meant to be spicy, or if the staffs were meant to ask the customers...

D.

Okay for a quick bite on a Friday night... Don't expect to much good alternative from McDonald's. Three Stars...

K.

Tastes pretty good but I would not expect them to get your order right. Just prepare yourself for the inevitability of missing or incorrect items.

G.

Good experience here loved my food will definitely come back

E.

the lettuce amount was perfect, lots of taste in the quality wrap, would recommend to everyone to try their food!

G.

Mediocre.

t.

Stay away from the pulled pork, it's bad news

C.

Great frozen Margueritas.

S.

Brilliant food, very clean and new, the way you order was amazing and the food was just so nice

A.

So delicious!!! I had the crunchy one. Their mexican chips are also delicious!!!

M.

Cheap & yum for the price :) definitely better than Zambrero or Mad Mex! Yummy vegetarian options too!!

A.

The food is good but uber orders were missing like for the 3rd time I ordered. That's disappointing

A.

Super delicious and I love the vibe, not even sure how to describe it.

J.

Always wanted to try it but wasn't keen to visit the states. I wasn't disappointed. It wasn't spicy so that was a little disappointing

S.

First time trying Taco Bell as a friend had recommended I should try it and it was really 👏
