recent few years, we've been just getting a dozen tacos (too hard to make at home) and that's it. I'll have to start expanding my menu order again. Even the lack of green onions won't stop me as one follow-up poster mentioned on our trend, I'll try a couple, and see how they taste. Man, I don't know what's driving them to change their relatively simple menu, perhaps as the one person said, the green onions were bad (but then order them from another location and use those onions?).

Another driver of changes too, to their menus probably is keeping their profit margins up.

Well, me and my other half have cut out fast food out to the bare minimum. Mainly, because of, prices. You might as well go and have a nice sit-down Mexican Food dinner (and we have lots of choices, some damn good Mexican Food places that give you tons of food and thus, you get 3 meals instead of 1 when you order a meal there). There is something to be said about good sit-down diners, they are still there and going.

Thus, 1 nice sit-down Mexican meal (Mariachi's, on Gravois Road, in the city of St. Louis) equals at least several Taco Bell take outs (and if you've eaten the day after Taco Bell food, especially Tacos, it's not really good). I recommend this place highly for those of you coming to the city, wondering where to eat. We don't get any of the drinks, but they also look good too. The service is literally out of this world, you'll barely are able to sit down, get your order in barely, and viola, it's there! It's that quick.
