This review ONLY compares my experience with other fast food breakfast offerings from McDonald's, Wendy's, and Sonic. Food: - Breakfast Burger Combo ($12.50). A large sesame seed bun filled with a gently fried, fluffy egg, charbroiled hamburger patty (take THAT McDonalds!), cheese, bacon, tater tots, and ketchup. I had my doubts about a fried egg and a beef patty on a breakfast sandwich. Hands down--the BEST fast food sandwich I've ever eaten! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! - Croissant Sunrise Sandwich with sausage, egg, and cheese Combo ($8.50). Again, the egg was fluffy and perfect. The sausage patty, and the croissant was buttery, moist, and didn't fall apart! TAKE THAT SONIC! - Sides: A carton of Tater Tots with each combo. The Tots are crispy on the outside and savory on the inside. - Drink: I chose Barq's Root Beer from the self-serve soda fountain. LOVE Root Beer, but you get coffee, OJ, Coke products, and others. Service: Very prompt and friendly. She even brought the food to our table! TAKE THAT WENDY's! Ambiance: Very clean, bright, and inviting. My Check In photo shows the inside. As you can tell from the Carl's Jr promo photo and my photos, they are close to reality. TAKE THAT WENDY's, McDONALD's, and SONIC! Overall: First time I've ever been to a Carl's Jr. My Wife and I will drive past the other fast food joints to reach Carl's Jr! read more

I had one of the worst dining experiences of my life at Carl's Jr. I ordered a chicken sandwich and a burger, and both were absolutely disgusting. The chicken sandwich made me violently ill -- full-blown food poisoning that left me bedridden. The burger was greasy, bland, and tasted like it had been sitting under a heat lamp for hours. This place clearly has no standards for food safety or quality. I wouldn't feed this to my worst enemy. I'm shocked they're still in business. I will never eat here again, and I strongly urge others to stay far away unless you enjoy nausea, stomach cramps, and regret. read more

Wow... it's my 1st time at Carl's in ages. Last time was way back at the Anaheim location near Disneyland. It's been so long, and I have totally forgotten about it. My initial feeling of interior is kinda like Wendy's. This location has been around for a while and shows. Back to food. I was a bit shocked by my burger. It was nicely wrapped and lettuce and tomatoes and cheese, and the rest were perfectly presented. It looked even better than the In and Outs. Ketchup and mayo combo was good, too. Fries were hot, not too thick, and not too thin. Perfectly done. Overall, the restaurant was clean, staff including my cashier, was very friendly. She even brought out my food to the table. Definitely will be back for more! read more

I love their food although the freshness of the bread can be a bit inconsistent. I keep going back there because I get consistently friendly service that is quick and efficient. The service people genuinely seem committed to giving me a good experience. read more

Shoutout to Kevin at the drive thru window for making sure he got the correct order. Recently had terrible service with Culver's, Goodtimes and KFC where they didn't care to check if they had given us the right items. Excellent service! read more

I grew up with Hardee's and was never really a fan, so I was skeptical. When I got there the place was empty, but very clean. The cashier was great, no issue getting the gluten free order right on the first try, and they brought it to our table once it was done. The gluten free burger was wrapped perfectly in lettuce so that you could actually hold it and put down and pick it back up again. It was easier to eat than with a bun. Fries were perfect, burgers were hot, juicy, delicious, bacon was perfectly cooked. Milkshake was okay but I prefer malts, not their fault. If you can, download the app and use a coupon. read more

Arrived at 1pm, figured not too far from lunch, should be fresh.... ordered a famous star, a big Carl and large fries, disappointment across the board. My famous star was mildly warm at best, the cheese was not melted recently, wife's burger was the same. Fries were most disappointing. Warm also, not properly salted. CERTAINLY not what I remember from my childhood, as I grew up next to one, when they still cooked FRESH...I'd avoid the Carl's on Lincoln at all costs. Never going back there again. read more

Quick, hot a little expensive but good tasting. Staff very friendly! Will come back again. Everything inside was emaculatly clean! I'm

Super clean. Very organized. Very fast. Employees were pleasant and everything with the food was expected.

I usually try to avoid Carl's Jr. not because it isn't yummy fast food, but because it is calorie packed fast food! Don't look at the nutritional values unless you want to go into cardiac arrest :) I love their turkey burgers, chicken tenders and spicy chicken. This one off Lincoln is kind hard to get into - can you say roundabout? Nobody ever knows how to use a frikken roundabout so I always get nervous when I have to go through this one (its busy!). Still, it's a good lunch spot. Quick, cheap and calorie packed! read more

Worst food. The chicken wasn't even a quarter of the size of the bun. Super small tons of mayo and definitely not worth the money. Spent $40+ dollars just for a sandwich to come out like this. read more

Yeah... what others have said on service and food. I do t ever come here but the boy wanted a cheeseburger. Long wait and subpar service. Burgers looked like the smashed buns from the pile, put together sloppily and just bad. I know what I was getting into, but this was setting the bar really low. Probably not coming to this location again. read more

Carl's Jr. isn't normally my first choice for lunch, but there are not too many other fast food places on this part of Lincoln Ave, east of I-25. So if you are starving to death it beats standing in the 20-minute line at Subway. The food here is about what you expect - not bad, but not 5 Star French cuisine either. At least their French fries are usually served hot! For sandwiches it's hard to find anything that isn't loaded with calories. I usually go with the Chicken Club (560 calories) or Teriyaki Burger (600 calories). Many of their burgers have 900+ calories. The service is friendly but really shaky some days. One time I got the completely wrong order. Another time I got the wrong beverage and wrong size of fries. Going inside isn't any faster service even if the drive-in line is 7 cars deep. They don't have much competition in this immediate area, so I keep going here about once/week. read more

Came here bc we love(d) Carl's Jr. It was awful. Fries were cold, I asked for crust ones, the music was so loud we couldn't enjoy talking, wtf. Not every one likes the music on, please turn it down!! I watched one of your cooks refry onion rings bc we wanted crispy, seriously? You couldnt make fresh ones or is that how you do things...needless to say: And I called to complain and was talking to the manager and he hung up on me We won't be back!! How disappointing. read more

Grilled cheese bacon burger, tasty! That was like a grown ups version of a grilled cheese. Add a decent sized patty, bacon, cheese, and then more cheese! (They do have a few slightly healthier menu items, but you'll have to dig through their website to find them.) This place is close to work, so it's always an option. As long as you don't plan on reading the nutritional information, you'll be good. read more

Not fresh. Big Carl's missing iceberg lettuce, fries were very soggy and all other buns were old.

Was the only car in the drive through and waited 12 minutes for cold, old fries and a burger that was so greasy that Exxon Mobil was trying to drill into it for oil. The chicken tenders we got were so stale that you could SMELL stale oil emanating off of it. These three items came at the excessive cost of $16. We kinda wished we just paid that and left without taking our food... and then maybe we would have had a better experience. read more

Carl's Jr - The burger was so oily that I thought it was going to try to sell me a used car. Just look how slick this lettuce is. - Fast Food Near Me - Parker, Colorado

So I come to Carl's Jr to get my kid chicken stars and fries kids meal, and they're out. Furthermore I ask if they have chicken strips. Guess what? They are out. No signs on anything at all. If a restaurant can't keep stuff in stock, it's a restaurant that I don't think we need to be spending our money on. This location always has a problem of poor communication read more

I'm a Carl's Jr. fan. This location is massively understaffed and a big let down. Arrived with no cars in drive through, about 530 pm. Ordered 2 normal menu burgers, 2 sides, and a kids meal. 13 minutes later finally got my food. Asked for a receipt because the total seemed high, was told the printer was broken. I think these poor employees were trying to run the restaurant with only 2 workers. The order taker was obviously new, but also running between counter and drive through. Fix this location or close it. read more

food is fresh clean store little pricy but you leave satisfied.

Much improved! If you've not been to this location in awhile, give them another chance. I believe it may be under new management/ownership. I still remember my days working at Carl's Jr. and know how things should be done. Used to be horrible quality, skimpy on ingredients and would have to go out of our way to another location for quality Carl's. Not anymore. This location is making a superstar like is should be. The staff is much improved and very kind. Thank you!! We're coming back and glad to have a quality Carl's near us again. read more

This place is horrible! Super slow. When I finally get to the window to pay the girl at the drive up window read a me a wrong order. I tell her "NO that's not my order". I tell her what want again this time face to face. She proceeds to argue with me that she had my order correct and I am wrong. OKAY really! Clearly, I don't know what I want to eat and she does. And she still gets my order wrong. UGH!!!! read more

So the online allergen menu says the fries are free from all allergens. Just to be sure, I ask the kid at the counter if the fries are made in a dedicated fryer. He has no idea what I'm asking, so I tell him it says they wheat free on the website. He tells me "I fry them with other wheat free stuff like the zucchini and jalepeño poppers. those are breaded, so beware that the fries are not gluten free as the website indicates. read more

This has to be one of the great Fast food Locations. I'm speaking specifically to this one location. They are fairly quick regarding service, have yet to get an order wrong in the many visits I've had there, and the food always seems fresh. I used to get the turkey burger but have been changing it up a bit lately and have not been dissapointed. Also great has been the addition of sweet potato fries. A must have! read more

I have yet to have a decent meal/service at this location. Today, I ordered for my son and myself 2 Famous Stars w/cheese and a large fry for us to share. The fry box was for the large fry that I ordered, but would have gotten just as many fries in the small order if not more. We used a coupon for the burgers, so my suspicion is that they are trying to make up for the loss profit by shorting us on the fries. One of the burgers was smashed and only had a single small ring of onion on it. I had to add onion to my burger at home!. Also, I wanted to order a chocolate shake and was told that they were out of shakes! REALLY? I AM DONE WITH THIS CARL'S JR. LOCATION ONCE AND FOR ALL!!! You stink!!! read more

I've been to this location twice. Today and about 6 weeks ago. Love the Chicken Club sandwich. Which by the way comes on a wheat bun. But, I'm confused. Both times my sandwich came on a seeded bun. No wheat buns on this side of Denver? I'm sure I'll give them another try. Think they'll have their act together? read more

Out of the fast food places this is my favorite burger joint. I purchased a high school sports card for $25 that's good for a year. One of the items on it is buy a burger and a medium drink get a burger of equal/lesser price for free. My son and I love the Western Bacon Cheeseburgers. One secret, get extra BBQ sauce. So, I guess with this one review I'm rating two things, the HS card and Carl's. Both get 5 stars! My son and I stop in after hockey practice and devour two WCBs (western bacon cheeseburgers) each. That's the one time I can actually justify all the calories but, I'm convinced while Einstein had his equation: e=mc^2; my equation is more basic: fat=flavor. Sometimes you just have to do it! read more

I decided to deviate from my usual McDonald's breakfast routine and try Carl's jr. I had a coupon for two bacon egg and cheese biscuits for $3.50, which is quite a bargain. It was a snowy day so I decided to just do drive-thru. The biscuits were delicious, hot and fresh. The cheese was thoroughly melted. The service was quick and cordial. I will definitely be back. read more

Carl's Jr - What a bargain I got with my coupon. - Fast Food Near Me - Parker, Colorado

Yes, I had a coupon for a Banana Chocolate Chip Shake. Yes, it was very good. Yes, I like shakes. No, do not, I repeat, "Do Not!" order a taco, even at 2 for $1.00. Yucky. My advice: Go eat somewhere else and then come here for a Shake. read more

Food and price is typical for Carl's Jr. but waiting 17 minutes for my food driving through the drive-through was not okay. As I sat there at the drive-through looking left watching a gentleman and a girl that had just arrived to work in uniform talk to a guy ordering for so long that the cook finally came out and bagged up my order and give it to me of course without the extras like dipping sauce napkins or condiments. Will not be going back here read more

We have been there a couple of times now and it was good. Burgers were yummy and the kid liked the chicken fingers a lot. So far so good!

Yes, it may take a little longer than other fast food, but it's just so good. I went this morning right before breakfast ended at 10:30. Randall helped us and I was more than happy to sit out front for a couple minutes for fresh hash browns. The biscuits were delicious and the fresh hash brown topped it off. Thank you Randall! read more

Worst drive-thru experience I've had! Waited in line literally 20 minutes and the line did not move. Finally, we all backed out of the drive-thru, most people left, I however, went inside to find out what the hell was going on. When I entered this unfortunate place, there was no one at the counter. Eventually, I was greeted by an indifferent worker who told me they ran out of buscuits and that's why they were not serving anyone. When she would ask the kitchen when the food would be done, the man would curse and yell back at her. What a dump. The cook was also sweating a lot and wiping it on his hands, pretty vile. Never eating at this disgusting place again. read more

Sweet Potato fries overdone and stringy, but ok i guess. I'm a big fan of the chain overall for their burgers and sammies, but just wanted to grab a snack this day -- underwhelmed with my experience at this location. read more

It'll do in a pinch, just don't order too much. The food is better than the well known fast food joints, but not by much. The chicken sandwiches are their best quality products, so pass on the fries, shake and soda. You'll thank me a few hours later when you don't have a greasy food baby rumbling around your stomach, read more

Love the Original Six Dollar Burger. Their fries are different than other places - a little more crispy. Easy to get to from Lincoln, especially if going east. read more

The worst Carl's we have ever been too. Last time we were here we ordered a bacon western cheeseburger and got it with pickles on it, and extra cold fries. This time we order one of the same and a super star, got two super stars in stead, that didn't taste fresh, the fries tasted old as well. Well never go back to this Carl's! They can't ever get our order right! read more

Carls used to be my favorite. This particular location has got to be the worst Carl's out there. I ordered two of the burgers with the hotdogs on it with no produce on it, when the lame cook handed the guy my stuff he said that it wasn't supposed to have produce on it, so he just took the lettuce off and handed to me. I was so hot I thought I was going to drag that idiot over the counter and smash him, so I just left before something happened. I called to complain after I calmed down and I guess the manager didn't like my attitude so he hung up on me. The worst customer service I've seen in a while. You'll here from me again. Oh and also, I was the only person I the whole store. No one even in the drive thru. How do you screw up the only customer in the store? read more

I have been to this location quite a few times over the years. I enjoy CJrs food, but the lack of decent service here is pathetic. I've registered one complaint before, but got a call from what sounded like someone doing phone work from their home in the Caribbean doing QC. I go here once a quarter now if I'm lucky, I just have had too many bad experiences at this location. The last time was the straw, I won't go to this location again. If you're jonezing for CJr try to find another place to get it, otherwise avoid it like the plague read more

Probably one of the worst Carl's Jr. I've been to. The employee running the drive through had a terrible attitude and didn't communicate when I went to pay. It also took them 10+min to get my order done, when I only ordered two burgers. When I got home the burgers were cold and poorly made. Definitely wouldn't recommend this location. read more
