    a hamburger and onion on tin foil
    Christi B.

    Wtf. I'm never going back Every time I go there there is some kind of issue the fries are soggy the hamburgers are cold So today I go and I get a piece of a lettuce On a cold hamburger and the corn dog is burnt

    Undercooked hamburger

    Ordered burger well done. Got home cut into burger and it's pink. Ordered fries no salt. Plenty of salt on fries.

    Chocolate Nut Milkshake, Mint Chocolate milkshake and Orange push-pop milkshake.

    If you're looking for a quick fast food place during late hours while in the area, this place is decent! Burgers and fries were basic but simple and nicely made! Added a shake and it made the meal even better. I would definitely go back whenever I need a quick simple meal.

    Service was quick, and the food was great! They did give us Cajun fries instead of plain, but it was still delicious!

We ordered a shrimp burger and a super hamburger(special toppings) with an order of fries and one of the hush puppies. Order was quick and the food was hot and delicious! The hush puppies were not like others you normally get - they were long and plump! Almost like rolled tubes! They were delicious. Both sandwiches were very good and cooked just right. My burger came with slaw but it was not like any slaw I've had. Somewhat sweet but no mayonnaise! I'll be looking online for this recipe. Overall great drive in food at a good price. We will be back again this week!

We stopped by El's after our kids worked up an appetite. We liked the old school drive-in feel and the kids eating in their car seats strapped in with the DVD player and AC on was a really nice touch after all the running. We got a bunch of things off the menu: grilled cheese and nuggets for my 2 younger boys, hamburger and double cheeseburger for my 2 older boys, onion rings, hush puppies and the ever so famous shrimp burgers for my husband and I (hubby got the super shrimp burger). I wouldn't have considered trying the shrimp burger but after reading about how amazing it is, I knew I had to try it. There were a lot of shrimp in the regular burger, and I'm not a coleslaw girly but the coleslaw really worked in the burger. It really did not disappoint and now I am salivating just thinking about it.

    Like a lot of people who have tried CFA, I am a complete and total Kool-Aid drinker. I believe in…read moretheir product not only because of the flavor but mostly on account of the chain's shocking ability to be consistent even though they're all franchises which at most chains would equate to an all over the place experience. We rumbled in here on a weekday after what most would consider a traditional lunch time to find the usual shit storm that most CFA's have which is how do you get on to the property? The drive thru line is backed up around the store and 95% of the parking spaces are taken. We were committed to eating inside and thankfully got one of the only tables available. The order process is as expected with one problem. They are out of lemonade. The girl at the register half fills our cups and said that they were making more but that it would be 10-15 minutes at least until it would be ready. Grumble. Grumble. Whatever. The food makes it's way to our table about 10 minutes later and it tastes as expected with the nugs, wrap and sandwich. One of the employees finally comes out with the five gallon bucket they mix the lemonade in and fills the container. At that time you see myself and four other people descend like locusts with around ten cups looking for refills or in our case, the part of the fill we actually paid for but never received. I hope they had more on the way past that because what they brought out was not going to last long at all. On a side note, one of the employees was walking around table to table telling people that they are going to be piloting a program in the near future where you'll be able to pre-order food via the app and when you come in it'll be brought to you at a table restaurant style. Is that good or bad? I don't know. I've never heard of it locally where I live but I don't do apps so whatever. Like pretty much all other CFA locations I've ever been to the food is solid and that's what keeps me coming back for more. But in the future CFA should really consider building stores with larger seating and parking components. This isn't your typical fast food place where the bulk on the business is done via the drive thru. No, CFA does a fair amount of business with people choosing to eat in. Hopefully they figure that out in the future especially if they're going to try things that resemble quasi-sit down restaurant service.

    Great location and friendly service as always. The food was hot and prepared quickly. The facility…read morewas clean and tidy. While most of these chains are consistent this one meets or exceeds the standard.

    Even though I've got two Jersey Mike's locations somewhat close to the home office, I've never been…read moreto either of them. Put us on vacation in North Carolina though (our only visits to this chain prior were at the Manteo store) and suddenly we stop here. It's the same ordering process as we experienced in Manteo with the order being taken at the counter, then you pay and then the food is brought out to your table if it's a hot sub but any cold subs are done before you pay. One more weird thing about the ordering process both here and in Manteo. When we order the meatball sub there is always this pause from the staff and the need to check if they actually have any meatballs available regardless of the time of day. I don't get that. If it's on the menu, it should be available. Only William Shatner is allowed to make dramatic pauses like this. #13 - Original Italian #15 - Meatball #17 - Philly Cheesesteak #20 - Grilled Pastrami Ruben There were two downsides to the order. By the time the meatball sub actually got to the table the person with the Italian was nearly finished. Yeah, it was that long. Second was that everything was beyond messy. Meatballs-sauce-sauerkraut-oil-vinegar-steak meat everywhere. It was as if the food was made by someone with a blindfold on or during some severe seismic event. Whatever profit the store made on our order was partially wasted on the amount of napkins we burned through. The one, and I suppose the only one that matters, thing that is most important is that everything tasted great. The hot food was hot and the cold food was cold and everything was made the way we asked in terms of toppings. With the slow implosion of Subway very much in progress, Jersey Mike's while far more expensive, is a much better alternative if you're going to go the chain sub route. If our food were put together a bit neater this would be a five star review and I truly don't give up many of those especially for food establishments. A+

    The sub was great. Fresh meat and produce. I usually call the order in ahead of time. It's always…read moreready when I get there. If you have a bad experience I can tell you it was unusual. But they'll make it right if they can. Order a sub , I think you'll be satisfied.

    Before I share my thoughts on this restaurant, it's important to note that just 2 1/2 weeks before…read moredining here, I spent time in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. That means the competition for this establishment, at least in my mind, is some of the best--places like Panther City Barbecue in Fort Worth and Terry Black's Barbecue in Dallas. This restaurant advertises itself as serving "proven, winning competition barbecue." Having recently eaten at Terry Black's--a proven, award-winning establishment--I can't help but draw some comparisons. At Terry Black's, the pits are open 24 hours a day, seven days a week, ensuring that the barbecue is as fresh as possible. Here, while the staff takes noticeable steps to keep the meat moist and juicy, the taste and consistency just didn't feel like they lived up to that "award-winning" standard. Ambiance and Staff: The interior is neat and clean--exactly what you'd expect from a newly opened restaurant. The staff was exceptional. Everyone I spoke with was kind, helpful, and eager to provide a good customer experience. It's clear they are putting in the effort to make guests feel welcome. That being said, the restaurant is still in its early days, and you can tell they're ironing out some operational kinks. I imagine that in a few weeks, most customers won't notice these small bumps. The Food: This is where things get a little disappointing. I had high hopes for the brisket and beef rib, but unfortunately, neither lived up to my expectations. To be fair, I am comparing them to award-winning Texas establishments, which sets a high bar. Still, I couldn't help but feel underwhelmed by the flavors. The brisket lacked the bold, smoky taste that defines great barbecue, and the beef rib didn't have the consistency or texture I expected from a place claiming to be competition-level. The sides were average. For example, the collard greens didn't compare to the ones I had at another local restaurant the night before. The jalapeño mac and cheese was decent--I could see and taste the jalapeño, but it didn't stand out as memorable. The cornbread was probably the best item I had, but even that was good, not great. As for the sauces, I tried two of the three (not the Carolina style). They were both good, with subtle differences that I appreciated, but they didn't elevate the meal in any significant way. Overall Thoughts: This place faces stiff competition, both locally and in my own mind, given my recent Texas barbecue experiences. For ambiance, they earn a solid 4 out of 5. For customer service, the friendliness and helpfulness of the staff deserve a 5 out of 5. But when it comes to food taste and quality, it just didn't meet the expectations I had--especially considering the hype and the claim of being "proven, winning competition barbecue." Compared to places like Terry Black's, where the pits are running 24/7 to ensure fresh barbecue, this establishment didn't deliver the same level of freshness or flavor. While I can tell they are taking steps to keep the meat moist and juicy, the taste and consistency just weren't award-winning in my opinion. With time and refinement, I think they could improve, but as of now, the food didn't live up to the hype.
