    I honestly hate this McDonald's, even Escondido location (which is busier) does better at getting ur order out. Here they take so long I sat waiting for my food (fries, chicken sandwich, cheeseburger, nuggets 6pc) for 20 minutes in the spot they said to wait. No one ever came out and I parked, went inside and turns out they forgot my order and got it ready once I told them I was waiting for a long time in the spot they told me to wait in. My kids always want to go and this is exactly why I tell them no! In the VC location you wait for your food the same amount of time as if you were eating at a fancy restaurant. This is fast food, shouldn't take this long. My time is worth more than a sad one item coupon they gave me. I threw it directly into the trash.

    Been in the drive through for 30 minutes. The drive through is clean and the building is new, but the service is extremely slow. Do better.
