- CLChyanne LavinOct 31, 20251.0Waited 10 mins in the drive thru before someone even took my order waited almost 20 mins to get food after putting it in I can’t say that any time Iv been here in the last 6 months had my food ever been correct… or missing something both took place today with my order.
- SSSarahSep 12, 20251.0If I could give them a zero I would. I ordered ahead and when I got there I put in my stall number and it said some girl was on her way with my order. I waited and she never showed so I pressed the button and they finally came out with my order but it was the wrong sandwich. I tried calling and calling and finally after calling like 15 times they answered and I told them they gave me the wrong burger and they hung up on me.
