Taco Bell

[dioxide45]

I can understand the desire to go to Taco Bell. When we go to Aruba, we always make sure to hit Taco Bell a couple times. With all the great restaurants in Aruba, Taco Bell is still on our list.

Come on! Not that stupid.....

We adore Mexician food. Loads of restaurants in Edinburgh but no Mexician fast food so we were curious.

Was going to visit a few places on I-drive as we have never been.

I guess it is just one of those things you need to experience once so you can say you did it. In fairness my eldest son LOVEs TACO BELL. It is just that I always wonder that they use for meat in their tacos.

Please let us know what you think of it after you return...that is after you recooperate.

It's not really meat. AVOID!

There is also one on 192 which I've eaten at before. And not too far from that Taco Bell is also a Chick Fil'A if you want to try out various other fast foods in one trip

Warning. Don't try to go there on a Sunday. All Chick Fil'As are closed on Sundays.

Seems like Sundays are the only day I crave Chick Fil'A.

We love Taco Bell and eat there a few times a week - don't worry about the haters on here. It's NOT bad food, and it won't make you sick.

That being said...I'm looking forward to trying Moe's in City Walk since we'll be staying on site. Is it similar to Chipotle? We have Izzo's Illegal Burrito here, and it's (imo) better than Chipotle - hoping for something similar and looking forward to trying it.

We are a family that loves Taco Bell, too! Affordable and tasty. We don't eat their often, but we do enjoy it.

We took a trip to Tennessee in May and we were happy to try Long John Silvers! We always see commercials, but they don't have them in our area. It was good, but greasy. Still glad we tried it though.

Enjoy your trip and have fun trying Taco Bell!

Chipotle > Moes IMO. No contest.

Well, that's disappointing. We may just stick with Burger King. Bleh.

On a semi-related note, we're staying on site 4 nights. Should I plan on driving off site to eat some of the evenings, or do you think it's better to just eat in City Walk or at the hotel and not have to go off property (we will have a car in the parking lot)? I want to minimize the stress, but I'm not sure if we're going to get totally sick of eating on site. It's going to be me and my 12 year old daughter.

There is a Taco Bell a block-or-two from Hard Rock, and while we feel. it does make for "decent" fast food fodder, the Moes that is in City Walk is pretty darn good to. (And Chipotle TOTALLY ROCKS!) but...There is something to be said for an effective marketing campaign though!....

Taco-Taco-Taco Bell.....Bongggggggg!

(Sorry, couldn't get that out of my head!)

We're staying at Royal Pacific - are there any OFF site restaurants within walking distance, or would I need to drive to realistically get anywhere? I'll have my car, I'm just hoping not to use it much.

You should try it. Maybe you'll feel differently than I do. We also have a Free Bird here. It has a lot more choices than Chipotle but similar concept. I still prefer chipotle. So I really like chipotle.

I just noticed there's a Five Guys nearby - so I'm happy! Guess we'll be using the car after all

There are a few, but not super close. City Walk has the triplets though-Moe's, Burger King & Panda Express. We frequently hit those up for a reasonably priced meal. We generally don't leave the grounds much-it just takes too much valuable park time away for us. Plus, there are SOOO many good places to eat at the US/IOA/CW & on-site hotels-(The Kitchen at Hard Rock Hotel is AWESOME!)
Look on Google Map, and zoom in on Vineland/Kirkland intersection...several places in that area.
If you do use your car, there are MANY other places within a "10 minute" drive. MANY-MANY!

Thumbs up on 5 Guys!

Well, Taco Bell did win the franchise wars. (If you've seen Demolition Man, you'd get this!)

You have made me want to watch it now
