    Not usually the one to come and leave negative reviews but my experience tonight was below that of any fast food in the area I got a mobile order tried doing a add on at the stall they cut me off then stopped responding the man to bring me my food had the longest and dirtiest fingernails I’ve seen on any server I get home check the food the sausage is burnt to a crisp the eggs and cheese are all burnt I’m not here to bash but to share my perspective I hope moving forward they do better.

    Historically they’re not great. Service is usually sub par and food is meh. Typical fast food. Tonight though the team was exceptional. All positive attitudes. You could tell the place has been cleaned up. Kitchen looks spotless. Food was perfect. Not sure if it’s new management or just a new crew but well done.

    I’ve been driving through here for years, not many of the staff members from what I can recall have had lasting affect when it comes to customer service and what not.., a young lady by the name of Mariah, have been super friendly, helpful and patient when I drove through receny, help correct my order and also assisted me on some clean up when one of the food items had wasted in and on my car.. she was very caring and helped to clean up the mess.. had a good laugh about it but really felt taken care of in that situation thanks to her.. so this is a very special shout out to Mariah! Thank you so much for your help, service and care towards customers such as myself! Keep it up!

    Diondre did a great job taking care of my large order. I asked him to please separate all 6 meals and number them which he nailed. Food was hot and exactly what we ordered. Thank you

    Idk what this sonic issue is. But they need to say something about a certain time they do the drive thru only. I sat in my car for 30 mins after I checked in the booth.
