    The food was good, and the carhop was super sweet even though none of her equipment to take payment was functioning. That's a rough position to put your staff in. Management needs to make sure the systems in place are operational.

    Ordered extra sausage extra cheese burrito, even had to pay for it. They gave my a skimpy burrito even smaller than normal size, almost like a junior size. Pretty much stole my money! And of course I went through the drive through and they didn’t give me a receipt so they won’t do anything, ugh!!

    Ordered a chocolate shake and onion rings. The onion rings were hot and fresh. The shake was lacking any chocolate taste . That was Saturday and it still sits in my freezer not eaten on Monday.
