"Super yummy fresh nacho fries they even gave me a large instead a medium! Definitely ordering again"
"The Grilled Cheese Burrito was warm, tasty and delicious, but could use more spice. Taco Bell should make it easier to request extra spice on their app or website. The Sriracha Bean Crunchadilla tasted perfect but was a little small for $2.40. Unfortunately, the Crunchwrap Supreme was cold and had hardly any potato, mostly lettuce and sauce. For the price, I expected much better. Overall, a good order, but the Crunchwrap was disappointing."
