^^^ To be fair, this is in the 'Getting Your Fill' section. Nothing wrong with getting public service announcement.

If you're not interested, don't read the thread.

I'll do my damndest to not have a voiced opinion-just to be fair of course. I really just want a T shirt with "Remember the Alamo" printed on it.

What Alamo?
Silence, exile, and cunning.

I'm sorry to hear that you were not happy with the food. You got it for takeaway, which is never going to be great for the appearance, hence the salsa all being on one end of the container. However, it is the taste that matters most and if you were unhappy with that then I am quite surprised--but everyone has different likes and dislikes. You specifically requested that it be served without the normal french fries or side salad, so it does indeed look a bit sparse. We included the tomato and cucumber just because we hated to serve it completely bare, but apparently that was not well received. You were informed when you came that we had no sour cream available. That is truly unfortunate and definitely affects the taste of both the taquitos and tacos, but our supplier had been out for days and we had to go to 5 different stores before we finally found it yesterday. I would welcome you to come back and let us try to see what we could do to improve your experience. If you let me know ahead of time that you are coming, I'll make it a point to be available to talk to you about it.
