I'm at the final drive-thru window. Waiting for my order a couple seconds and I over-heard a manager compliment one of his workers. "You've been greeting the customers and I love it! You're doing an amazing job" It made everyone around her smile including me! I always come here, it's nice to see the employees have a nice environment to work read more

Paid by card. This McDonald's is on the street and offers some plaza parking. I went through the drive-through and used my app to pay. This is the worst McDonald's I've been to in a long time. I had no issues ordering, but it took 20 minutes to go through the drive-through and get my food. When I went to the second window to pick up my food, they almost gave me the wrong order. For a while they couldn't find my order on the screen. Then the worker tried to argue with me that I didn't pay yet. So frustrating. Finally a manager stepped in and showed her where the order was. Np apologies or acknowledgment of the inconvenience... I don't recommend this location and won't go back. read more

Just a question. WTH is wrong with this McDonald's and their manager?! I normally don't leave bad reviews on fast food because there's basically a standard with fast food where I'm not expecting anything crazy. Come to find out everyone leaving reviews here has experienced the craziest disrespect by the manger. Missing food, wrong orders, the app malfunctioning and manager asking to see personal BANK statements to prove an order was paid for?! Insinuating that mobile orders are old screen shots like someone's trying to get free food when you literally see someone opening the app up to show. This is the worst McDonald's ever experienced and the bar was already low. read more

HATE this location, they're always out of stock on certain items on the menu, they are rude when helping you. i always preorder my items to get to do a quick pick up BUT they don't start your order until you're there??? such a weird location. read more

Came here after spending time in the SD area for a work conference and it was a perfect breakfast pit stop! Needed coffee for the long drive and got a sausage egg and cheese McMuffin and hash browns too. Got a pretty good value with the coupons on the McDonald's app. The McDonald's breakfast always hits! McMuffin was super good and the hash browns were perfect and crispy. Coffee was alright but it gets the job done. Plenty of parking outside the restaurant, it was a bit busy but I was able to get my food in about 10 minutes. Great spot for a quick bite! read more

The final stop of my national cheeseburger crawl with the boys was a smashing success! The free cheeseburger was delicious and hit the spot to conclude a hard night of eating. I also added a $1 Big Mac with purchase to round out my evening. I needed lunch for tmr! I ordered on the kiosk as usual. They are all over the place here. I selected table side delivery which was probably asking too much for a McDonald's. The three other boys in my crew selected this as well but only one of them got his food consistently delivered! The rest of us had to pick it up at the front. I recommend coming with a group if you dine in at night. read more

McDonald's - Cheeseburger - Burgers Near Me - San Diego, California

Came here before heading to the movies. I pre-ordered on the app which saved a lot of time. The line in the drive thru was unbearable. It has the dual screens and ordering lines but it was super long and after waiting about 7 mintues, I decided to bail and just go inside to collect my order. I got two 20-mcnuggets with an assortment of sauces. Inside was much easier and efficient. There was a line of people waiting. But they already ordered and was just waiting for pickup. I came in, gave them my number and was out the door in about 90 seconds. I ate about 10 minutes later. It was still semi warm but wasn't crispy as I liked it. I don't think its because I waited. I think it's just the oil was old and they pulled it a tad bit earlier. But I understand because most people dont like it crispy. Safe to say this place is understaffed. It was 6pm on a Wednesday when I was here and I only saw 4 employees. Either way, I see and appreciate their efforts in serving people as fast as possible. read more

Karla is bad server ever. Said f*** with customer.I had a bad experience at Mcd Mira mesa. There was a fly inside the food, which was unacceptable. I also saw staff take cash from a customer and then handle food right after without washing their hands. They were not wearing gloves either. The server was rude and spoke loudly to customers, which made the visit uncomfortable for my family. The food did not taste good, and the place felt dirty. Based on my experience, I would not return. I prefer Mike Taco instead read more

If you know me you know I am a huge fan of the Grinch so when I heard about this grinch meal I had to get it. I do wish the meal was customizable because the options are a bigmac meal or 10 piece nugget meal and I really don't need that much but I did it because of course I need these special grinch socks. It comes in the cutest box I almost wanted to keep it! read more

Strike one - pedestrian-hostile building and surrounding area layout. Car-centric to the extreme. Walking up to it from a nearby business feels pretty risky. Strike two - no baby diaper changing accommodations. As our party included a new mom and her baby, this was a dealbreaker when planning a lunch out. Strike three - should it really take 14 minutes to get a BASIC small cup of hot coffee??? That's all we ordered. Do they roast and grind their own coffee beans? BTW it's the second time the most basic coffee order took an outrageously long time to get at THIS LOCATION. Last time they made it faster but forgot to call out the order number or name and just left to sit on the counter. read more

This place never opens on time ! 6:30 and still not open. They do this everyday. Hopefully corporate sees this

Had an excellent young man turn around what would've been a very unfortunate experience. They were out of the glorious and tasty spicy McChicken. (McDonald's how can you allow this?) and out of Dr. Pepper. How am I supposed to eat my regular McChicken without my drink?? This is where Jaheim comes in. Absolutely saves the entire experience with some insane aura and charisma. Apologized for the inconvenience and offered alternatives. 10/10 service. That's how it's done! read more

Love this location. Lots of parking, staff is efficient and drive thru service is excellent. Food quality is consistently good. Exactly what you would expect from a national food restaurant. read more

Super bad service. Asked for rewards # and then went on to a other customer after I gave it to her. Drive thru is bad

Worst f-ing McDonald's ever. The dude trying to argue with me that when they send the message of "your order is ready to be picked up" doesn't actually mean it's ready. Like really? Since when is "now serving" means they are working on the order?? The guys name is Aris. Watch out for him. Doesn't seem understand that they are messing with people's time when they are scanning all the online orders as complete just to save their average time. Still tries to argue with me even as I walked out saying some bs like have some respect. Have some respect for what?? For the fact that you guys actively lie when things clearly aren't ready but you still go ahead and scan the ticket as complete?? This is such a joke. I can't believe they actually have a manager on duty with their staff behaving like this to customers. I wouldn't have said a word if the order was still in "in progress" section. However, it moved from there to now serving and the guys still tried to argue with me about how that doesn't actually mean it's ready. Like really? read more

The mcdonald red shirt dude with headset driving a orange/habenaro Prius C car was super hostile when he trying to back out of the parking lot while I was driving into the parking lot right next to him. He was yelling very vulgar and hostile stuff even though I have the right of way going into the parking lot. You guys should teach your workers on who has the right of way when back out of a parking lot, I'm surprised he was getting mad at me for going to a parking next time while he was backing out. To everyone that's reading this, watch for a McDonald guy in a orange/habenaro Prius C car that doesn't even know how to drive. He said something like "you almost f**king hit me!" Like WTF is wrong with you? You're the one that's back out of a parking lot while I drove in the one next to you.You need to retake your driver license for f**ks sake I would've let him back out if he wasn't so slow or driving a car that you can't even tell if it's backing out or not. And who the f**k doesn't look at the rear while back out??? I got nothing against that dude but please teach him to look back at the flow of traffic while backing. Teach him backing out of a parking lot does not have the right away. Teach him how to control his unstable emotion because he get himself into deep trouble. read more

McDonald's - Watch out for the mcdonald employee that drives this car. He will go off on you even though he doesnt know how to drive. - Burgers Near Me - San Diego, California

I used to go to this location all the time. Whenever they had their drinks for 1$ The line moves fairly quickly here but i hate the way this location is positioned. Its next to the Popeyes and for the drive thru line you have to go alll the way around and end up in an exit to mira mesa Blvd. This location is dirty most times and the workers just slap your burger together, but tell me which McDonald's doesn't? I've called that number so many times for unacceptable customer service and forgetting or having wrong items all the time, they've sent me free vouchers, but nonetheless I still love me my McDonald's! read more

Food was normal , but I really wanted a caramel frap and I had points for a free one. For some reason the app wasn't letting me use it and I asked for who was in charge. She came and I told her my issue and she didn't make it a big deal or anything and honored it. I really appreciate the customer service. You really see how a company's customer service is when an issue is met and this one gets 5 stars read more

Well I have given a few reviews for this McDonald's. This is the second 5 Star in a row. The new Manager is really trying to turn this place around, and I think she's doing a great job. Food is tasting better, employees are using better customer service which we all love. I lived in Mira Mesa for 30 years, so glad to see this place turning around. Thanks read more

The people working here is pretty slow, their service is not that bad but definitely, not the brightest. They do the same things daily but they are just not that good at what they do. Management should tighten their crew up. Always missing items, messing up simple things. Do better read more

I enjoy coming to this location! Service and staff always nice. Food always comes out fast even on a busy day! Great ambiance overall. I want to give a special thanks to Ariana not sure if she's part of the management team but she's amazing and deserves recognition! Always friendly and helpful! read more

FIND ANOTHER MCDONALD'S!!!!!!! The French fries were like fairly fresh but no salt & were so dry!!! It was horrible!!! The double cheeseburger was dry & the double quarter pounder was also dry. Me & my fiancée did not finish our food. They made everything extra dry. The service was horrible, & we got charged $.97 cents PER RANCH!!!!!!! Dry dry dry!!! Go somewhere else!!! read more

McDonald's - French Fries - Burgers Near Me - San Diego, California

This location is always understaffed, overwhelmed, and sometimes even loses track of people's orders. The employees always seem flustered but are somehow disorganized. Not having cashiers is a massive negative from a customer service stand point. They also tend to run out of receipt paper at their kiosks. One positive is the lobby seems to be clean. But that's about it. I will drive to another location instead of waiting in the lobby while they struggle to get orders right. Don't even try doing curbside ordering either. They've given me someone else's order at least 50% of the time. And in the lobby, it shouldn't take 20+ minutes to get one item. Luckily the food still tastes good and the location doesn't burn or undercook the burgers or fries. read more

if i could do minus a star i would. there was a fu**ing piece of gum in our fries and they tried to bribe us with free food after our complaint. that's all they tried to do and it's disgusting. even corporate didn't even help. they brought us to the owner of the store and he disgustingly hung up and didn't care about my concerns. read more

Slowest McDonald's I've ever been to. I'm a grubhub delivery driver and I'm always waiting forever to pick it up. No other fast food place is like this. read more

Probably the worst Mdeez in San Diego. Asked for an extra paper bag to consolidate everything into one big bag and the Filipino girl with the glasses working the pick up window looked at me like I offended her, LOL. Get your act together Mira Mesa location, very embarrassing. First and last time there. read more

This is my first review of the New Year. After the holidays I find that when I am not in my home cooking, then I am in a McDonald's for an upbeat, retro, modernized hamburger and French fries place. I like the updates, the option of contactless check-out and friendly staff. I had what I normally ordered and it has that lighter, fresh and flavorful faire. The staff is great at delivery of service, which I appreciate. read more

I like McDonald's. I really do. But this location is so bad. Really really bad. I still think about how I really waited over 20 minutes for chicken nuggets because the staff is so incompetent. The fries are never hot. Ever. It's like they cook them in the morning and just let it sit under a heat lamp all day. Other locations aren't like this Chicken nuggets taste like they're microwaved. Not good like other McDonald's Worst part is that the last two times I've gone in, there's a homeless junkie asking everyone for money. Smells like crap. Disgusting experience every time. Not worth it. Just go to a different location. I'm legit going to make the extra drive to another McDonald's because this location is the worst read more

I did uber eats from here. I know it was not the delivery driver who did this because the bag was sealed, there were TWO ALIVE cockroaches inside the bag on top of the food. This Mcdonald's claims it's open 24/7 on google and on uber eats i would arrive at this mcdonald's late at night to find it closed and have had multiple orders cancelled because of this. I love mcdonald's but this is the WORST experience i have ever had and it's just a mcdonald's... read more

Went here to get the grimace birthday meal at 1am. HUGE line out in the drive through Wait for half an hour, get there, get told "yeah ice cream machine is down after midnight". What kind of brainless operation has a HUGE promotion like this,yet has no signs up telling people it cant be gotten past midnight? I brought this up to the cashier, who responded with "it's been that way for years". Unbelieveably stupid response. The entire point of a big campaign like this is to GET NEW PEOPLE WHO DONT NORMALLY EAT THERE! Why in thw wide wide world of sports would I POSSIBLY know about an arbitrary rule at a 24 HOUR LOCATION that part of your entire lineup just shuts down when Jack in the Box, Starbucks, and any other 24 hour location doesn't do this, and ESPECIALLY when it's a promotional item?! Absolutely dumbest setup, dumbest response from staff, and dumbest marketing I've ever seen. Grimace's creator is probably grimacing in his grave. read more

Horrible attitude from the guy on the morning shift . Very rude and did not give me everything I paid for . I wouldn't recommend anyone who wants to be treated fair come here. Especially paying 22 dollars for a single breakfast for one read more

Came here on Thursday morning/ 10:30 lunch time started. I start at the drive through line where there's about 10 cars in front, I saw cars start leaving... still got behind someone. After 10 minutes of waiting and the line not budging, I decided to go inside. There are a ton of people waiting for their food and to order. I order at the kiosk and surprise surprise it's broken. So I try another kiosk and luckily it is working. It's close to 11, and I have spent almost 30 minutes on a McDonald's adventure. It looks like there are two people working as they are moving at a slow slow pace. Disappointing. read more

I've been coming here for over a decade, and they've been consistently serving good food fast. Use the app for deals and rewards. My faves are the Mc Double, Sausage Egg Mc Griddle/Mc Muffin, Chicken Mc Nuggets, Quarter Pounder, Big Mac, Mc Crispy (Spicy Chicken Sandwich), Vanilla Iced Coffee, Ice Caramel Macchiato, and the French Fries. So basically, almost everything, 8/10! read more

This McDonald's is not even worth the one star I had to give it! They provide Horrible customer service ! It's dirty inside & dirty restrooms! The drive-through representative terrible terrible attitude. Save your money and go somewhere else. Dunkin is right down the street. At least they have better service. read more

I wish I could give no stars. My girlfriend and her friend went to get the grinch meal at this location. After getting home to eat, her friend pulled out a piece of gum from her mouth. It was in the fries. Her friend felt so sick and disgusted that she almost went to the er to check if she had anything. The service to let that slide is horrific. Overall tone and feel, DISGUSTING. read more

I came here a few times to get the Grimace Shake when the campaign was still going, only to be told the tragic news that it was unavailable. Every single time. Other than that, the food here is standard and the location is open 24/7. If you want a fast meal past midnight, the drive-through here is for you; just don't bank on the ice cream machine working. read more

Worst and slowest McDonalds I've ever been to. There can be one car in the drive thru and it will take 30 minutes. I've never spent less than 30 minutes waiting in line and have spent up to an hour...not by choice, I'm a delivery driver that has to suffer through this all the time. read more
