The pics are from Mad Taco's Facebook page!

He's likely adding those because I flagged his review, and said that he didn't post pictures or discuss any food items he actually ordered. So now he's probably scrambling to find some random ass food pictures so he can keep his FTR. But then I'll just flag him again and say he's committing fraud, using photos from the company facebook page.

ETA - Just called the number on Yelp - it's for Madden's - I asked if Mad Taco was open today and he said they are not open until tomorrow. No food is being served today.
The pics of "what he ate" he posted are the ones on Mad Taco's Facebook page...lol.
What a dick! I hate that guy.

Yelp doesn't care that GregD reviewed a restaurant that isn't even open - I flagged it and they replied that they reviewed it and are leaving it up.

He probably threatened to sue them or file a fake police report against the moderators if they took it down. I'm only half kidding.

So GregD took the Amtrak in Boston yesterday (and gave it four stars), then caught a redeye back to B/CS just so that he could be the first in line at Mad Taco?

What an enormous dewsh.

It was delicious tonight. Salsa was amazeballs, the drinks were mixed just right, and my taco was excellent. My friend and coworker loved it too!!!

Is it Joe's Crab Shack that might be going in at Boston's or Razzoo's? I had heard the latter.
According to the ladies behind the counter at Boneheads, the work being done at the former Boston's is for a Razzoo's. Lots of work trucks there, and lots going on inside.

Apparently Greg D. has been doing fake reviews for years now, he appears to be a psychopath...

Yelp in general is about as useful as a bucket of warm spit :-/

So what's he going to do when Mad Taco decides to expand and become a chain? Oh the horror!

Managed to try it for lunch. It's good. Glad to see that area getting some new restaurants.

It's actually "Chubby's Meat Wagon". LOL

Haven't been there yet but with a name like that, how can you not try it?

Is this something that needs to be said in private? If not you can just tell me right here and I can add it to the front page.


The front page has been updated. Let me know if any businesses were left off.

I was interested in learning how a business is added to the local spotlight. I have a college prep/test prep service that is locally owned and operated. Our services differ a great deal from other test prep services that parents typically hear/know about. Website and contact info is in my profile. Thank you for your assistance.

I noticed construction and landscaping happening at the old Blackeyed Pea/Ocean Buffet location. Does anyone know what is going on there?

The front page has been updated and the new local business spotlight is:
Avant Garde Prep
Innovative Higher Education Consulting

Bryan, TX 77807

This is a college prep/test prep service that is locally owned and operated.
TexAgs' double b is the owner and independent college consultant for this great local business!
"We offer free consultations and that several early registration discounts are currently available for our summer prep courses."


double b let me know if there is anything you would like me to add to your spotlight information.

Thanks guys for the glowing remarks!!

Maybe mention that we offer free consultations and that several early registration discounts are currently available for our summer prep courses. Also, just a small correction with the business name but it is spelled "Avant Garde Prep".

Many thanks!

Looks like a gift shop/antique store has moved into the old Heritage Menswear building in Downtown Bryan.
