    Entire place was dirty. Food was cold, even nuggets and fries were terrible. The salad had rotten lettuce. I thought it couldn’t get worst until we finished our meals and our kids hadn’t gotten their toys we specifically asked about before the meal (if you have toddlers, you know how specific/excited they get about small things), they ran out of the toys on display and refused to let us pay for the display ones they were just going to throw in the trash. The cashier was fine but management is clearly not.

    Staff is horrible. Came through on 11-20-25. Clearly there was no organization or employee management. I ordered 2 Frosties in the drive thru. Screen came up correctly, showed my order a bit over $7. I pulled to the window and the cashier and another employee were messing around and laughing. He opened the window and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't catch your order, could you repeat it?" (Weird, it was correct on the screen, but ok...) So I did. The price was now $8. I thought, "Whatever, maybe it was wrong before." - side note, for two Frosties, $8 is ridiculous. We waited for a good 8-10 minutes. I could clearly see the employees messing around. Then, he hands me out a bag with two orders of fries and walks away. What?? I hand them back - he says, "My bad" as he and the guy behind him are laughing. Then a couple more minutes go by before we're given our order. There needs to be better organization, better management, and better work ethic from the employees. It'll be awhile before I go back.

    I ate there today. To kind of see what was going on as far as them being my one of my favorite restaurants at one point crispy chickens were good but the fries were just old and cold I was very disappointed and now I can kind of see why it's going downhill and shutting down. I didn't want to be rude and inconvenience anybody by asking for fresh fries after being served other ones cuz it feels awkward and I don't like confrontation and then I feel like I'm overzealous but those fries were legitimately nasty and barely warm it all and old... :(
