    Probably one of the worst McDonald’s experiences I’ve had. I asked upfront for extra ranch, they still charged me $1.50 extra for two packets. The worker even had to get the manager (ranch police) to charge me extra. Then, they made us pull off to the side just to bring out the ranch and completely forgot our food. Nearly $20 for two Happy Meals and they’re nickel-and-diming customers for ranch? Absurd. Honestly, In-N-Out is a much better deal for better food and service. Definitely won’t be stopping at this location again.

    The only food you can have sauce with are chicken nuggets. If you want sauce with anything else on the menu you need to pay extra
