    Waited at the drive thru speaker for a whole minute and no greeting or reply to us. We drove to the window and the lady kinda hid from us and we waited a minute for her to come to the window. We tried to order a single dragon fruit slush. She told us we needed to go drive back around to the speaker (which is broken and barely works!!!!) we just left they clearly don’t want our business and the service and attitude turned us off

    Would absolutely not recommend this location. Each time it gets worse. Should not take 47 minutes to fulfill an order at a “fast food restaurant”!

    This location is notoriously slow but today they went above and beyond. I waited 12 minutes for a Coney dog, they guy behind me left after waiting so long, I would have done the same had I not already paid and no one came back to the window after I paid. The workers all seemed like it was funny and couldn't care less. After getting back to my office and beginning to eat my food it was horrible, not sure why it took so long I'm assuming it was frozen and this unprofessional staff was unprepared for the lunch rush. There was only one vehicle in front of me when I ordered. I have been patronizing this location for 3 years, I work directly across the street but I will not be going back again.

    Sat at an order board for 5 minutes, no answer just a flashing red button. After 5 minutes decided to try the drive through, once at the order box sat there for 2 minutes with no answer. I guess the hardest part of a restaurant is having someone take an order. Who knew?
