    For whatever reason this location is deceptive. The ordering kiosk doesn't have a visible option to pay cash at the register, it waits until the order is about to be cancelled. The franchise owner is obviously trying to be greedy and force customers to pay full price. Greed is God I suppose. Jazmin is a rockstar. Her patients was paramount. This franchise owner should be ashamed.

    Ordered through the app while in the store. Stood there for over 20 minutes waiting. Then when I walked to the counter they told me they called my number. They never did. Worst place to get food. Felt very unwelcome to be paying for ordering.

    I eat here more than anywhere else due to proximity and price. The fries are delicious and I never need to add salt. Usually the service is decent. The prices are a little more than other McDonald’s because of its location across from the pier.
