Taco Bell Cantina - Berkeley

Myself, my sister who was visiting, and my husband, experienced various symptoms after our meal from Tacos and Co yesterday. We received our food via DoorDash. The symptoms included vomiting, diarrhea, and abdominal pain. I believe the dish that caused the issue was the birria tacos as that's the only item we all all shared.

A very cheerful and pleasant man took my order and must have called me girl at least seven times during the 70 cumulative seconds we interacted. You want esauce, girl? You like espicy, girl? Yea, girl does and do! The chicken in my burrito was tender and nicely charred, the rice was a little overcooked, the beans and cheese were fine, and the salsa kinda espicy! (But they have a mild and medium, if spicy isn 't your thing.

These are just average birria tacos, served to people who are in a hurry (i.e., students), thus accepting to pay exorbitant prices.I stopped by the food court with my companions around noon on a Wednesday. We picked an outside table as this eatery lacked its own seating (while many others did have). A bigger problem was no available Taco Co. or public restrooms in the vicinity, which wouldn 't be much of an issue usually, but when hands were utilized to dip tacos...I chose for us a few birria tacos without and with cheese. I felt cheated, however. Taco Co. included cheese by default; removing it didn 't reduce a small portion of the cost. The more common, fairer practice would be offering tacos without, then charge extra for add-ons, such as cheese. Again, people short on time and unscrupulous businesses are a bad mix.The tacos couldn 't be mistaken as anything else but food court tacos, because flavoring felt rushed and deficient. We did like the soup being piping hot; it was satisfying to sip. My companions—trying birria for the first time in California—really missed out. Luckily, I had enough entries in my rolodex to recommend a more deserving choice, with optional cheese and complimentary ethical business values.

1 star Just for the guy with the terrible attitude at the register, who was off somewhere else while the guy with the long hair was in there working quickly, efficiently and being friendly while doing it... by himself before Quasimoto came in with that low vibrational shht. I wish I could've suggested my tip went to the longg haired man only from the kiosk. LolGo to Juan's Place if you want good food from good people who treat you well.
