Took a while to get our food. I was missing a sauce and Instead of them giving me another sauce, they decided not to give me the sauce I paid for until I went up and asked for it. And I prefer the old design better where they had the screen letting you know what order they were working on.

Burger patties on the big macs were so hard pieces were snapping off and the cheese was 2 different colors like it had been sitting out for a week.

Normally the Fry's here are slightly stale but today they were perfect however the quarter pounder I ordered was absolutely undercooked and pinkish red mushy. It was flat out raw not even just undercooked my recommendation is if you order a burger break in half and look at the Patty

I pull up to the drive-through and am told that they can only do DoorDash or mobile order. So I asked, just to confirm, if I want to order food right now, I have to download the app to place my order and you will take it, but I can’t just give you my order right now at the speaker. … yup…
I asked why that was and she said because they were shortstaffed… There was absolutely nobody there at the restaurant.
Lucky for me there’s plenty of other fast food places on that street and I will not be going back there if they are really that lazy.
