Took the family through the Taco John's very long drive-thru queue and...it's exactly what you'd expect from a place called Taco John's. OK, maybe not exactly. The "super hot" sauce did not come in a ketchup packet like the hot and mild. It was a green salsa, jalapeno I think, with some real heat in a tiny lidded plastic container. They're trying. But by and large it's uninspired American food "inspired" by Mexican dishes. Baby mama and I both got combo 8, a beef and potato burrito and a beef soft taco. Our six-year-old got chicken strips and tater tots, actually "Potato Oles," which are like tater tots but shorter and rounder, closer to a disc. Our burritos had them in it.
I guess, overall, I'd compare it to Taco Bell without any of the batshit crazy stuff that makes Taco Bell fun to make fun of, or Taco Time without any of the nicer things (corn salsa, pepitas, etc.) that make it worth eating at. They're based in Wyoming, for God's sake. I don't know what I expected.
The worker-shortage era drive thru was a long wait, as expected. The staff were very nice and friendly. If I ever have a hankering for tater tots _in_ a burrito, I might be back.
