- DPDave PapeNov 1, 20255.0Tons to choose from and always good
- MSMarian SchroederOct 26, 20252.0The lack of competence is astounding. In recent years, the quality of service has gotten progressively worse. Today, we ordered two bread bowls and only received one. The drinks (which had those lids intended for straw insertion) did not come with straws. We waited 30 more minutes than what was projected. Just to note, the employees can be heard having endless conversations in the back... which probably factors in with the lackadaisical performance.
- ATAriel ThompsonOct 24, 20251.0Had to dispute a charge with my bank because I had to call and cancel an order that I was no longer able to pick up and requested a refund. I was told they would do that for me but I never got my refund even though I never picked up my food and they told me that they would issue a refund for me. Not happy they stole my money
- MJMarilyn JohnsonOct 17, 20253.0My husband and I always enjoy French Onion soup..we each ordered a bowl today for $8.99 each..we have never had F.O. soup like it was!!! There was no cheese or croutons on it. I had to ask if it WAS F.O. soup answer was yes..so I asked where are the toppings that make it F.O. soup..they gave us a sprinkle of cheese and a few croutons..not heated to melt the cheese and croutons together..it was 100% disappointing..also our 'ROASTED TURKEY' sandwiches looked like deli meat..our bill was $50.62 and far from worth it..it will be some time before we think about stopping here for lunch..very sad!!!!
- KIKaren IrwinOct 7, 20253.0This was drive thru so atmosphere was not really rated. The food was ok but just, greasy and not memorable. What was memorable was the wait, about 20 plus minutes at a drive thru window until someone came, no acknowledgement before that, nothing. We were wondering if we were at the right window but there wasn’t any other place to go. Not the first time experience you want to have.
