Taco John’s

A trek across the U.S. is not complete without a visit to Taco John’s and POTATO OLES. Crispy, crunchy, hot, and perfectly seasoned. Long live the olé.
This TJ’s was great. Service was friendly and fast, the food tasted fresh, and everything was clean. Did I mention the potato oles?

Terrible. Don’t eat at this taco johns along I-​80 in York, NE. Took them over 10 minutes to get us our food at 8 pm. Not busy what so ever. The lady who helped us was beyond rude. Handed us our food without saying a word. Then we didn’t get our drinks for another 5 minutes as we sat at the drive thru window waiting for someone to come back to the window to hand us our drinks and she didn’t even bother to say sorry; just handed them to us and slammed her window shut. And fast food workers think they deserve $ 15 an hour?! Prime example as to why they deserve minimum wage. Also, disgusting food. Ordered a burrito and it tasted like a chilli cheese dog because all it consisted was cheese and meat.

On my grueling 15 hour car ride home from college, I desperately needed some fuel to keep me going. Exit after exit passed with no restaurant stop to be found. Just as I was literally about to pass out from hunger and exhaustion, I spotted the beautiful Taco John logo and with the last of my energy, I rolled my car into the drive through.
I ordered the #9 Stuffed Grilled Taco with a side of Potato Oles and a refreshing Mountain Dew. The first bite was of the warm tortilla was so heavenly I could have died right there in the Taco John drive through and been satisfied with my life. I ravaged the brown paper bag for the crispy Potato Oles and before it even entered my mouth, I knew I was going to love it. I finished off the perfect trifecta with a sip of sugary goodness known as Mountain Dew.
If you are ever driving from Evanston, IL to Parker, CO and need a place to eat halfway through, I definitely recommend this Taco John in York, Nebraska!
P. S. The next morning, I took the NASTIEST shit.

Why is everyone hateful toward
Taco Johns? It’s by far my favorite fast food when I drive across America’s Heartland.
It reminds me of how Taco Bell
«used to be» before they cheapened their ingredients to the point their profits meant more than flavor. This goes back over 20 years or more but they used to use real sour cream in their burritos then, and even the black olives were thrown to the wayside.
This location was very clean and the staff friendly.
As for the comment about staff touching the food, this is an ignorant perception.
You have no idea what could be worse and you even touch your own food. I’ve witnessed Subway workers cleaning the lobby after removing the trash and using the same gloves to make a sandwich.
It’s never appetizing but, you never even know what happens our of sight.
Taco Johns is actually «cravable» so I’m giving them my thumbs up!

Walked in already feeling guilty for choosing greasy potato oles over a healthier, fast food option like subway. There was only one woman working, in the process of filling a drive thru order, as we walked in. She told us it would be just a minute and she’d take our order and I was glad I got to watch her prepare some other poor sucker’s food before getting a chance to touch mine. No gloves were worn, never saw her hands washed, as she hand scooped salsa into a taco salad, flicked the juice off her hands and rubbed what must have been one annoying itch on her face before proceeding to scoop potato oles. I immediately bailed before she had any chance to contaminate anything I was going to eat. Who knows what else she was scratching and what dirty money she was handling without washing her hands. I’d pass on this possible infectious meal.
