    I purchased the McChicken value meal and requested cooked to order. The food was cooked to order like I requested. They had me pull forward and was very polite about it. The young man who brought the food out to my car said have a nice night.

    Rude staff. Refused to give me my order at the counter because I put drive thru on the mobile order. I had to wait another 20 mins in the long drive thru line and when I finally got to the windows the staff was even more rude.At the window absolutely terrible service

    Made an order in drive through, they didn't get it right. Wanted me to go around and order again instead of fixing it at window. Manager Carmen

    The last 5 times I've came to this location the wait is a while for curbside and usually cold fries besides 1 time they were actually good. But tonight I waited at least 20 minutes for a curbside with only 2 drinks. I had to come inside to watch it sitting on the counter with 1 drink not even filled up and the ice already started melting. Im highly disappointed. It's went down in the last probably 2 months. Seems there no sense of urgency for a lot of the workers. I won't say all but most.
