    The average age of the lunch crowd was 60. The food was above average but I would never eat here again. They were playing crappy teen age music just loud enough to be annoying and the station wasn't fully tuned in so it was raspy and distorted

    It was Mother's day and my granddaughter and I wanted a quick bite. I ordered the King Coney. We shared the 11" coney. It was great! The container was easy to separate and we were able to enjoy the KC right in the car.

    It seems like nobody in this state answers the phone and then they picked it up and then hang the phone up in my face is this the type of professionalism that y'all have out here in this state

    Can I possibly rate less than 1? Terrible experience. The food tasted bad, and my online order wasn’t even started until I arrived—they couldn’t find it at first either. I saw ants all over the counter and even in the cooking area, which was very concerning. The wait was long, and the kids’ meal portions were extremely small—I had to order more food because my kids were still hungry. The online system is also frustrating and misleading—they advertise a free kids’ meal with an adult meal over $8, but price their adult meals at $7.99 so you don’t qualify, then refuse to honor the deal. Overall, very unclean, disorganized, and disappointing. I won’t be coming back.

    Have to shout out my man Sam. I work nearby and have been eating at this location for 5 years now. Every time that Sam is working the drive thru I get fast and friendly service! I greatly appreciate his positive attitude and attention to detail. This gold star is one of the only good restaurants in the area I recommend it to anyone. Thanks guys!
