    a menu for a chicken sandwich
    Meena C.

    Alright. So I have passed Guthrie's for many years in Trussville, and have never stopped by. My husband was out of town and on my way home one day, my car made the turn into their parking lot. Which speaking of, their lot is weird. Huge lot for such a smalll building that doesn't offer dine in options! So odd! There aren't many selections on the menu which is good for someone who gets analysis paralysis when there are too many choices. I order and quickly got my food, picked up the baby, and headed home. The chicken and fries were flavorful and crispy! We really enjoyed them! The slaw was super mushy and soupy... the purple cabbage had turned everything purple. We just skipped that part. I'd stop here again when I'm in the mood for some good fries and tenders!

    This location lacks consistency so this is my biggest issue whenever I come here. "The box" is the traditional order. My food was fresh.... Fresh but some of the bites of chicken were extremely salty. I had to spit it out! High blood pressure salty! The fries , coleslaw and Texas toast were all decent. However, seem to always be different each time I visit. I never have any service issue when I come here. It appears that they are rebranding which I like the red accents versus the previous green accents. I don't eat Guthrie's often but I will crave it from time to time. I just wish this particular location would be a little more consistent with the their food. I am still a Guthrie's fan!

    I ordered the box dinner (tenders, fries, Cole slaw, and toast). The drink isn't included. Unfortunately, everything without the exception of the toast was fried too hard (nor requested). There was no line either so I guess the food had already been sitting under the light for a while. Usually the food is pretty fresh so maybe this particular time I caught them on a bad day.

    The chicken was delicious, as usual. The sauce was terrific. Guthrie's stays true to their core.

    Everything is always fresh, I could see they were making slaw when I went through the drive though, I figured it came in a bag or something.

I ordered through their app... which was the only way to get the Mexican pizza before it officially hits the menu. Downloading the app was super easy. Placing my order was easy too. When I arrived to pick up my order, the drive thru was kind of crowded but I didn't have a long wait. Told them the name on my order and also ordered a cherry sunrise freeze. I am a sucker for all things cherry so I wasn't about to pass up the chance to try this drink. Highly recommend. Pro tip- happier hour is from 2-5 so their drinks are $1. You're welcome! Service was cool and my food was prepared just how I requested it. I messed around and let my pizza get cold but still very much enjoyable and hit the spot indeed! This location is in a very busy , congested area. My only complaint. Welcome back , Mexican pizza!!! They never should have taken you off the menu!

    My first time going to Whataburger, the food and service were amazing.   Upon entering, the place…read morewas clean and super busy.   The gentleman that took my order greeted me as I entered and told me he'd be right with me.  I glanced at the menu, and it looked pretty basic for a hamburger place, but after trying the food... it was amazing.  This isn't the basic fast food chain I grew up going to like McD, Burger King,  or Jack in the Box.     We ordered: 1. Patty melt meal with large onion rings and large chocolate milk shake-  Words can't describe how good this was.  It was meaty and cheesy.  The double patty matched the amount of bread.  It was a perfect ratio, and the Texas toast just tied everything together.  The chocolate milkshake was easily one of the best I've ever had. It was thick, almost like a frosty, but tasted was better.  I was surprised at how big a large milkshake was compared to anywhere else.  The onion rings tasted like the kind you'd get at a diner. 2.  Bacon and cheese whataburger with a double patty large french fries and large sweet tea and lemonade - This was amazing. The veggies were fresh and crisp.   It was almost like the perfect salad.  This was equally cheesy and meaty in each bite.  French fries were addictive and went well with the spicy ketchup.  The sweet lemonade was super sweet but balanced perfectly with the lemonade. 3. Small strawberry shake -  for a small, this was comparable to a large shake you'd get anywhere else.  This tasted like fresh strawberry shake,  not the generic nestle quik or canned strawberries you'd have somewhere else.      Honestly, the whole experience start to finish was amazing.  The gentleman who helped me was super nice and helpful in figuring out what to order.  My drinks came out fast before my food.  I went to my truck to bring the drinks to my husband.   This way, it would be easier when the food comes out.   Right when I was about to walk back in,  someone came out with my order.  He told me no point of you going back in just to get your food.  He told me there were napkins, 2 ketchup, and 2 spicy ketchup.  I was like, "Thank you so much. You didn't have to."   Then he asked me if I wanted anything else or any other sauces.  I told him, "No, thank you and went back to the truck.  Never has anyone done that before with any fast food order I've ever made.  I'm not sure if that's how they normally do thinks but I truly appreciate how they went above and beyond.     On a side note,  I thought that it is really smart how they place the french fries and onion rings in a square container.  I've always hated how the container just spills or fries and stuff always falls in the bag.      I don't know why this place has so many bad reviews.   I highly recommend this place and can only hope that the quality of food and service is the same at any of their other locations.

Annnnd I am happy to report that this sandwich is delicious! I just got the nearly $8 sandwich ( no combo). The cheese steak had a nice flavor with tender meat w/t melted cheese, a few onions and peppers(very few) and a garlic sauce on a warm ,soft hoagie roll. I added banana peppers once I got home and this elevated the taste for me even more! I would definitely order the cheese steak AGAIN!!!

    There is a reason this restaurant is not rated well. I just got back from picking up a mobile…read moreorder that I placed. I do not believe that they were having a good night, but when do they have a good night? The young lady [saying that to show grace I was not given], behind the counter was beyond unreasonably nasty. She was angry there were customers. And made it obvious to each interaction she had. The order was much later than expected.... The shake was made at the time I was made to stand and wait .... And of course was completely melted by the time I received my food. To be fair this was better than the cups she slammed on the counter and told the young man to make his drinks himself. To say I was glad to leave is an understatement. But I do have a concern: what if I was unable to make it to the inside of the store as commanded. Possible because of an injury, age or something else potentially personal. Leading to the reason why a mobile order and a drive through? Would one have to be exposed to this horrible treatment? Just a thought for consideration of our challenged customers. I will have you know that I waited at the speaker for 5 and a half minutes, with cars stacking behind me, before I said "hello" into the speaker. To be then told "I was about to tell you to wait a few minutes. When she came back to get my order and mentioned it was a mobile order I was informed I would have to come into the store. Look it was not just me that this happened too. In fact I said only one thing beyond speaking into the speaker: when I received my food, "may I have a bag that is not ripped" and then "thank you." I also was not the only person who had to ask for a bag. We all would have been better off following the guy who walked in, looked around and then walked out. But we had all paid in advanced. The last thing I would like to point out is when the young lady screamed "pull my drawer" at a person I am guessing was/is a manager. We all showed a great deal of constraint for not applauding her desire to leave. Suffice to say I am good on drama for at least a few days this week.

Drive around and was quoted a total of like $16 plus. Wild, right?! I pay and was given an illegible receipt but I managed to make out all these itemized entries on my receipt , to which I questioned them. Yeah I had been charged incorrectly all these extra items I never asked for. So I kindly asked for a refund and a better copy of my receipt because at this point, I wasn't playing any games. Got that cleared up. It tooooook nearly forever to get what ended up being gross food. Undercooked fish , dry /cold fries and coleslaw thrown together. Even after I had been waiting a very long time in the drive thru, the worker comes to the window to ask me what I ordered. What?' I replied calmly, "Are you serious?" Beyond frustrated at this point. I really should have just demanded a refund for the entire meal! As I stated, the meal was garbage and not worth the real cost of over $10.00 plus! I have complained to their corporate office because this experience was beyond unacceptable in my book. I won't be back to this location! I'm NOT accepting mediocrity from these establishment.
