    Fresh ice tea. Zucchini. Famous Star
    Carol B.

    The food was very fresh. The service was great. The restaurant was very clean. I definitely will be going back. I ordered the famous combo with zucchini and fresh iced tea.

    I thought $10.32 for burrito and $7.71 for a double cheeseburger, was a little pricey, even though they had good flavor. (The price was the only reason I gave four stars on my review) They were kind enough to give me a senior discount. The store manager was also kind and considerate on 7/3/2022 at 7:46 pm.

    Biscuit and gravy, yum.

    Great location and great service. This is the best biscuits and gravy in town hands town. I am a baker and a life long devotee to the biscuit and I approve this place. Do yourself a favor and have a humble treat here some breakfast

    Cardboard on the kitchen floor where they make food.

    Food is normally pretty good, but a couple of the mangers need a attitude adjustment. I stood at the counter for about 5 mins before anyone noticed me, but what really got me was when I was eating a manger walked buy another employee and told her when she was don't doing what she was doing to sweep, and clean the tables as I have watched this employee do most of the work as the manager just stood there doing nothing. Another thing that got me is the cardboard they have on the floor in the kitchen, they are walking on it.

    Being new to Porterville after living in San Diego has been a challenge. Yes the heat is maddening…read morebut finding a good burger in a new town is just as hard as tracking down a great auto mechanic. I have reviewed another burger joint here in Porterville and have given it top stars but I found J's on my way home after I spotted cars in the drive thru and a big J on the building. Good sign. So my dog and I turned into the shopping center and drove into the lane for ordering. I was driving. She was shotgun. I spotted a cheeseburger for $8.99 and had promised myself not to buy French fries and stick to eating healthy with the lettuce, tomato and protein from the cheeseburger. Wink. So when the mesmerizing and enticing drive thru voice asked me if I wanted french fries with my order, I immediately said no thank you. HOWEVER, I then spotted the SPECIALS sign which had cheeseburger, french fries and drink for the same price. I'd like to say at this time that it was J's fault for having that combo special on their menu that forced me to eat their fantastic fries. It also comes with a drink which I couldn't believe so I truly made the drive thru staff completely confused when I kept changing my order. IN ANY CASE, I was home within minutes and even had time to take pictures before I dove into drive thru deliciousness. Yum yum yum. I'm looking so forward to trying their recommended chicken tenders special. There is a special place in San Diego that has the best chicken tenders I've ever had (Lefty's pizzeria on 30th). I've even reviewed it. Let's see how Porterville holds up to the chicken tender taste test. Can't wait.

    They have a wide variety of food. We were really excited to try it. I got the wing dinner, and my…read morekids got the chicken strip dinners. I also got an horchata and a banana split. The food is hot, the sings were slightly over cooked yet still very juicy. I wasn't a big fan of the taste. They tasted a little old to me despite the juiciness and the crisps outside. The chicken strips and mozzarella sticks were good. Great cheese pull. They could have used a little seasoning though. Now the ranch was very strange, it tasted like ice cream and I'm not sure why. So we didn't get to try our salads yet. Horchata was good, my son said his banana split was good. The bread was good but it could use a little garlic butter. Over all ok experience. Probably won't eat here again though.

    Sad to report that the carried over "Coleman's" flour tacos do not have the same filling that they…read moreused to have. The old filling was thick like a chili and seasoned well. Now the flour tacos are just plain hamburger meat. To top it off, they're only half the size they used to be. The "Coleman's" steak sandwich is now almost $10 just for the sandwich! It isn't even close to what the original tasted like. This place will be out of business soon. They have all of Coleman's old recipes handed down to them in a book. They changed every one of them or got rid of them to cut costs. I know this will be the last time I eat here and I've been eating here for 50+ years. Guaranteed I'm not alone. What's that old saying? If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

Like other reviewers have mentioned there still are some of the original items from the old Colemans menu on this menu, which, I'm sure is appreciated by the people who grew up here. I ordered the steak sandwich combo, and it tasted pretty much like I remembered. It was very filling, it doesn't look like much, not too pretty, but it's a good sandwich especially if you want something a little different than a typical burger. People working at the drive-through window are always very nice and polite and I have not had an issue with any of my orders. You do need to wait a little longer than a typical drive-through, but I never mind. As I mentioned in a previous review I do wish it was easier to get in and out of the parking lot depending on traffic it can be a little tricky because of the location of the entry/exit spots and the timing of the traffic lights. They have a wide variety of foods so if you are feeding a family or group with different wants this would give you a pretty good choice of making everyone happy.

I usually get the $10 Gotta Habit meal, which comes with half of a Santa Barbara, five piece chicken bites, and your choice of a garden salad, fries, or tempura green beans, and a drink. The salads are always fresh and packed; the tempura green beans are always light and crisp, and the fries are decent. Their new garlic, parmesan cheese fries are good with a funky flavor. When they had their tempura avocado wedges, it became my habit, they were perfectly fried, crisp on the outside and warm and creamy on the inside with a hint of citrus. Their dragonfruit limeade is also my favorite, but it's seasonal. The staff are always nice and friendly. I order ahead to beat the wait. It's usually chill inside even when it's busy. There it's outdoor seating and the place is kept pretty clean.

The price was $8 something which is about what you'd pay at the burger chains. Got home to find I had the best tasting burger and fries I'd had in a long time.

I loved that all the toppings were fresh and in perfect amounts. The crinkle fries were hot and salty. Even though the burger patty had looked thin the burger was huge and I was so full it really wasn't a factor because it was so good!

As a customer, I expect to be treated with basic courtesy and respect, regardless of how often I visit or what I choose to order.
