 BROOKLYN WEEKLY, FEBRUARY 23, 2020 
 BY ROSE ADAMS 
 It’s the Taco Bell of the ball! 
 Hungry revelers will soon be able  
 to  hit  the  dance  floor with a Double  
 Cheesy  Gordito  Crunch  in  hand,  
 when the festive fast food chain Taco  
 Bell  opens  a  new  storefront  that  
 serves  booze and dance beats  alongside  
 its  signature  Mexican  eats,  at  
 Coney  Island’s  Surf  Avenue  this  
 summer.  
 The  new  eatery  on  the  corner  of  
 W. 12th Street plans to be open until 2  
 am on weeknights and 4 am on weekends, 
   boasting  a  10-by-10-foot  dance  
 floor, and serving up beer, wine, and  
 sangria, and liquor-infused slushies. 
 Some  community  members  have  
 expressed  concern  about  the  boozy  
 fast-food  restaurant’s  close  proximity  
 to  PS  90,  where  elementary-aged  
 youngsters  will  attend  class  just  a  
 quarter-mile  away  from  the  rumfilled  
 slushie  and  Beefy  Fritos  Burrito  
 emporium. 
 “Those kids will wind up in that  
 Taco Bell,” said Orlando Mendez.  
 “Even though they will not likely be  
 served alcohol there, I don’t think they  
 need  to witness  the  consumption and  
 possibility of intoxicated customers.” 
 Others  celebrated  the  news,  saying  
 that  the  boozy  fast  food  establishment  
 — located one block west of  
 the Cyclone — is a perfect fit for the  
 neighborhood once known as Sodom  
 by the Sea. 
 “I’m happy about it,” said Dick Zigun, 
  the founder of the non-profi t Coney  
 Island USA. “It fi ts right in there.”  
 A  representative  from  Taco  Bell  
 confirmed  that  the  restaurant  was  
 opening this summer, but did not disclose  
 any details regarding its plans  
 for  the  dimunitive  dance  floor  and  
 possible special events.
