Their tacos, was ok, just very small – I mean for a taco, the food wasn't bad. Was tasty. But I am still trying to figure out where the rest of it was. If I spend $6 on a "deal" I don't expect one little taco (yes the tacos were the size of a regular taco at taco bell) and a small serving of tortilla chips and salsa and a drink. For that price they should be giving you 3 tacos. Still trying to also figure out why it took so long to make that tiny little thing.

The queso dip is to die for. – I have been going to this restaurant for about 8 years now and I NEVER get tired of it! The staff comes and goes which is typical for an inexpensive restaurant so some of them are great and some aren't. Overall they are friendly enough but I could care less because I love the food so much. It's cheap - my meal is usually around $6 which is a "Dillo Deal" = taco, chips & queso, drink. The chips are delicious but I definitely come here for the queso. It varies in consistency and spice but is alwa... read more

What a waste of a lunch – My friends and I come up to Raleigh for Veteran's day celebration and stuck around the following day for lunch. I served 3 tours in Afghanistan, Iraq and Kuwait. 2/3 tours I came under direct fire and listened to the locals tell me how much they hated Americans and our forced Democracy. I spent about 8 months each in Afghanistan and Iraq, eating MRE and rations for weeks at a time if we were forward deployed. During December of 2004 my ship was one of the first on scene for the Humanitarian relief i... read more

I've had better service from Al Queda shooting at me – I remember getting audited one year and the IRS made me jump through so many hoops, I swore I would get a CPA to do my taxes from now on. The auditor made me feel like I couldn't read "simple" IRS directions and to call him "short tempered" would be an understatement. Then there was the time I got pulled over on I-440 by the state trooper for going just a "bit" too fast. The trooper was already having a bad day, apparent from his 5 o'clock shadow at 11am, and what smelle... read more

Decent Food but RUDE WORKERS – They act like they are doing some strenuous activity to get me a pack of sour cream from the fridge below! They don't think twice of getting an attitude and having a smart comment as well. Good luck getting the fatass bartender from leaning on the wall to get you a drink! The food isn't good enough for me to go back and deal with such poor customer service!

Taco Bell is more authentic – I'll give it to them--it's a great location, and it's pretty clean with some cool decor, but that's about where the pro's stop. The food is mediocre at best. I don't know how you can mess up something as simple as Queso dip, but they've managed to do that. Do NOT eat the enchiladas. Prepare for some real disappointment if you do. The big dark haired male bartender is a TERRIBLE BRUTE! I ordered a Long Island Ice Tea, and he served it to me in little margarita glass, not the standard pint glass, ... read more

Great Food for the price. Best People Watching on Glenwood. – This is not a full service restaurant and does not bill itself as such. You wait in line and order you food just as you would any other fast food place. That being said I've never had a bad experience and I've been eating here about once a week since moving downtown about 3 years ago. The staff is friendly and parking is available next to the building. They have an excellent selection of tequilas and have lots of different margarita options. I'm a fan of the Horny... read more
