    This is one of the first McDonald's I've visited in quite some time. I used to eat McDonald's a lot.I would just like to stress that this particular McDonald's is right on top of its game!!!! Everybody there was working so hard on a Sunday!! It was amazing to see!!! They all functioned well together. My food was hot and I left there a happy person, very impressed. Mcdonald's happened to have been my very first job.When I was in high school.. so I know what it takes to work there. The employee's at this place were doing a damn good job and doing the hard work to make it function efficiently!! You could hear them communicating with one another. And they worked well together. You didn't hear any complaining. They just did what they were supposed to do and did it well!!!! kudos, again I can't say enough good about you!!!

    It took 4 remakes to get a plain double hamburger. Cashier said she would bring the 3rd remake out to my car and I waited ten minutes went in, they made the third remake that had ketchup mustard and pickles on it. Finally the 4th one was made correct, but by that time, my families food was cold.

    When you call to try to resolve an issue, the manager says, "Ok! I'm sorry." in the most careless tone. No attempt at resolution, no intention of helping. 2 Big Macs drowned in mac sauce to the point of inedible. The 'sandwich' slid apart in the first bite. 4 items should've come with monopoly pieces. Nothing did, not fries, soda, or big macs. Again, her retort was, "we're out." Cool story. Never again.

    Every day for the past two months almost every day I’ve come here just for two double cheeseburgers at 11:30. They can’t even make that without asking four people to wait in the parking lot for their order. How can you not make two cheeseburgers at 11:30?
