The night-shift manager Maria is the worst. Terrible customer service. So rude. She definitely needs to be called out very unprofessional and just plain rude!

Very rude staff. The night manager Maria swore in front of me. She then had me park and wait for the food. 20 minutes passed, and I decided to go check on my order. There was a bag sitting at the drive thru window. I knocked the window and asked the boy if the order was mine. He handed it to me. I asked why did you guys have me sitting there for over 20 minutes. He laughed in my face and closed the window. The manager maria was just sitting at a table doing nothing.
The worst McDonald's!

I had an amazing experience at McDonald’s. This place was soo good. I stopped in for breakfast, and it was absolutely awesomesauce—fresh, hot, and exactly what I was hoping for.
The hashbrowns were perfectly hot and crispy, and everything tasted spot-on. I was honestly so impressed by how good the food and service were that I swung back around the drive-thru just to tip the drive-thru advisor a crisp $20. That’s how much I appreciated the experience.
Great food, great service, and a standout visit overall. I liked it so much and will definitely be back.

Food was good but the lines at night are out of control. Please either open the lobby or hire more night staff. It’s ridiculous I have to wait 25 minutes in line for a small order at McDonald’s
