However, I came across a promotion on Instagram and learned that they had a BOGO offer yesterday so we had to take advantage of it. Can't beat $10 for two sandwiches especially with inflation right now. Staff were friendly and I was greeted upon entering. I love that they have a mobile pick up option. I ordered the chicken salad and he ordered the Wreck. I placed my order on the app prior to leaving my office which is located in Rockville. I arrived a few minutes earlier than my pick up time, but it was ready by my selected time. Our order was accurate and our sandwiches were warm and fresh.

The Columbia location is the largest so far with ample indoor and outdoor seating. Called in order for pick up and it was seamless and was ready as promised. Gyro platter, Spanakopita, Dips trio, And Gyro Bowl. I would say they have one of the best Spanakopitas in the area! Big Greek (Feta) fries are also the best. Fiesty Feta dip didn't disappoint and they are so generous with the tasty Gyro meat portion. This location is consistent with the quality that we're used to from the original location. Pickup service was fast and seamless and Trinity took great care of us. Make this stop when in Columbia for some of the best Greek in the DMV!

However, the prior P is for Playa Bowl in Baltimore County was in Q is for Quarry Lake, so the location coincidentally started with Q. I believe Raising Cane's in Columbia was the 3rd location in Maryland to open. First was Towson in early 2023 I think, then Gambrills in Sept. 2023 (went on their 2nd day; see my 5-star of them), and then Columbia in early 2024 I think. The first time I visited the Columbia location was in March 2024, where I redeemed a green leprechaun lemonade, but I had already eaten or had other dinner plans. My first visit to get food was in July 2024. This was my girlfriend's first time at Raising Cane's. She loved it as did I per the other times I had in the past including the first time trying them in AZ in mid 2010's. I visited Cane's Columbia a couple of other times in the past two years. Always great chicken strips, fries, & Texas toast. I'm not a big coleslaw person, but I like theirs ok. I normally get half sweet/half unsweet tea, which is delicious freshly brewed. It's often busy, but staff is cordial, and pretty organized and efficient.

There was no line, but it took about 10 minutes to prepare my order, the Maple Bacon Chicken croissant combo. The only thing that made up for the slow service was that my breakfast was free as I had a coupon and the yumminess of my sandwich. After taking care of processing my coupon, the cashier asked me to pull up to the door of the restaurant and said that he would bring out my order. He apologized for the wait, which was a nice gesture. Onto the food. The Maple Bacon Chicken Croissant was delicious and a winner! My bacon and chicken was crispy. The croissant was toasty and the maple added sweetness to perfect the sandwich. Icing on the cake. The potatoes are ok, but not my favorite. I would prefer them plain with no seasoning. I'm not sure which sandwich I like better this one or the Honey Butter Chicken Biscuit better. Wendy's definitely has the best chicken breakfast by far out of al fast food competitors.

I only visited Qdoba because they had a $5 off of an entree coupon through T-Mobile Tuesdays and I…read morewas informed weeks ago that you can get guac for free. I placed my order online for the next day to pick up during my lunch break. I was surprised they only had a location at Dobbin in no longer in the Columbia Mall and had to drive almost 15 minutes to pick up my food. I arrived and when I gave the young lady at check out my name she couldn't find my order. I ran inside thinking that it would be very quick and left my phone in the car so then I had to go back to get my phone to look up the order number to provide. As I scanned my emai, I saw a message about an error in transmission with sending my order to the restaurant. I informed her of this and she then spoke with a young lady who was preparing the dishes that I later found out was the manager, and asked me to place my order again. I gave her my order and I inform them of my coupon I had from T-Mobile and that's when everything changed. The manager got really nasty with me and said I couldn't use it and that it had expired. I informed her I placed the order online for pick up the next day and already paid and that it wasn't expired when I placed the order. I also showed her the QR code that was still in my app at that time although it did show an expiration date of the day prior, it was still there. She made a big fuss about it and stated that I wasn't able to use it and how it was expired. At this moment I found myself getting upset because I clearly paid for my meal the day prior and if I wasn't able to use the coupon, why did it allow me to. I definitely would not have wasted my time and would have made other arrangements for lunch. I wasn't doing anything unjust and I didn't appreciate her tone she now took with me. I was about to leave without my food and she stated that she would make an exception for me this time. I paused as I thought about how wrong this felt, then stated it wasn't an exception, it was the right thing to do since their website was malfunctioning. I have used codes like this many times before and purchased food days in advance to make sure I was still able to take advantage of the promo code. Other restaurants you're not able to do it. How am I supposed to know this was a restaurant where you couldn't do it when the order went through successfully? I really do not like when people who have the ability to correct whatever the problem is tells you they're not going to do it again. What sense does that make? How about fix your website so that this problem doesn't exist. She doesn't have to worry about doing it again for me because I won't be going back. The food was ok, however I feel like she gave me the bare minimum servings because of the confusion.

He ordered a panda bowl with Beijing beef and chow mein. We both agreed that our proteins were not as crispy compared to past visit. My fried rice was also bland and didn't taste very fried and was on the softer side. They now offer a rewards program.
