- SBShawn BaileyFeb 16, 20265.0Great service and reliable quality for quick snacks on the go. Great place and consistent.
- SOSoli OleaJan 11, 20261.0Wish I could give 0 stars! NOTHING on our order was correct, it was cold and soggy and disgusting. Staff rude and careless
- ACAlisan CEVIKJan 11, 20261.0I waited exactly 45 minutes for my order, and when I asked a question, they gave me indifferent and rude answers. Even though the place wasn't crowded, they showed no interest at all.
- EAEhsan AziziJan 10, 20261.0They were only taking drive-thru orders. I waited inside for an hour, but no one prepared my order, so I ended up canceling it.
- CHCam HershJan 5, 20261.0Consistently the worst service of any fast food restaurantive been to . I live right behind this store for 15 years and after years of their mistakes I will no longer visit. The last 3 visits to the drive thru....1. No napkins. 2. Guy calls me boss 10 times during ordering.. "how many sauces would you like boss?" Then no sauces or napkins. Why even ask then? 3. (Today). No napkins for at least the 6th or 7th time. Just go to del taco just up the street. They've never screwed up my orders in 15 years. The owner operator clearly has zero standards for employees. Definitely not deserving of 22 bucks an hour for constant mistakes. Pitiful management.
