My very first job at the age of 15 was at McDonald's. I…read moreloved eating the food then. I love it now. Making a McDonald's burger is a science. No, it actually is....literally. The only thing missing in every McDonald's is a microscope. That's the level of precision, and that's why they are the mother of fast food for 70 years. There are two types of McDonald's Restaurants. One is Clean and One is Messy, and no I'm not referring to its floors. I'm referring to how they make their sandwiches. From step 1 all the way to placing it in the bag. This one I like going to when I do decide to indulge in my very sinful fast food crave. Why? Every time I have ordered, it has been tasty, well put together and the proportionality of the ingredients spot on. So, you don't have a soggy, sticky, greasy, messy burger in a paper bag handed to you. I've tried several McDonald's in my area downtown, but they are outright scary. Too much sauce, greasy bag, 2-day old fries and burnt buns.....Yup. Scary. So, whenever I do crave it and I'm in West Vancouver I'll go here. I mean we all know it's not the best food for you, and you can't even speak of quality when it comes to McDonald's, but actually you can.....in a weird sort of way even McDonald's has varying standards and quality control across different stores managed by varying managements. So, why only a 4 out of 5 when it's the one I like the most? My Fries were not topped up. This time.

It wasn't really close to the highway so it took a while to get there and the parking here is a bit funky. Ordering was easy. We lucked out with a spot right by the door and the ambience of the McDonald's rival any other McDonald's I've been to. The servers here seemed very nice for some reason and we're very friendly and took my order. As expected at McDonald's, the food came out very quickly and very hot. We grabbed a table and ate at the restaurant in the meal was great and we were ready to continue on our trip to head home can highly recommend a stop at this McDonald's so party on

The turkey sub they made for me was probably one of the best Subway subs I've had in a long time…read more You know the saying, "The Art of Making a Sandwich?"...well....they actually made my sandwich like it was art. I've been to many Subways throughout the years, and sure they tasted fine but they were never perfect. It was either squashed, oozing sauce, stale veggies or all of the above, but this one was perfect. I asked for all the veggies and they were all incredibly fresh. The turkey was incredibly fresh. The bread was incredibly fresh. If you've read any of my other reviews you'd know I'm not a fan of exaggeration, so I mean this description literally. The sub I ordered was crisp, juicy, perfectly proportioned, fresh and it looked like an ad for Subway, and it tasted even better. It tasted and looked like the person who made it for me took the time and made the effort to measure, consider and place very carefully each and every ingredient and wrapping it in such a way as to prevent any kind of flattening of the 9 in. beauty.....(Yes, I like my Subway sandwiches). This one Subway stood out for me amongst the many many all over Vancouver.

I think with this place it's more the attitude, lack of effort and sloppy service that defines this Chipotle. Almost insulting. We ordered two bowls with steak and rice. The serving portions of both bowls were so off that you'd think that one of them was half the serving of the other. There was no one behind us but it was as if we were witnessing a chicken line running out of time. We asked for a cup of water with our meal and they said..."no cup of water, you have to buy a bottle". A restaurant that doesn't give tap water with their order....wow. That, I would have to say is a new species of crap service. The service reminded me of the cooks at the prison lunch-line counter....not that I would know prison lunch...but you know what I mean... The bowl didn't really taste like anything other than sodium. The steak was tough, overcooked, over seasoned, dry and extremely chewy. Interesting. I've gotten an overlying thematic experience with several Chipotles in Vancouver. I wish it were a good one. Yeah, I don't think I'll be going to Chipotles in this beautiful city anymore. #makeyourown.

FOOD The All Canadian Breakfast born in a different universe might have been named a "lumberjack breakfast" or the "kitchen sink breakfast", or the "really gram slam". Either way, there's something heart filling (or heart stopping) by starting your day with everything: two eggs, two sausage, two bacon, two pieces of toast, hash browns, and a couple of slices of tomato for fun. When it comes to the fast food chains, A&W seem to the be the only ones that offer a fuller, sit-down style breakfast with sunny side up eggs and the fixin's...and it tastes good too :) === 3. SERVICE & ENVIRONMENT In the Park Royal South food court, it's essentially taeout service and from that perspective, it's decent - reasonably fast. The environment is the food court, so it's open and spacious, able to accommodate wheelchairs and strollers unless you happen to come across a busy lunch hour. Parking is easy with multiple Park Royal parking lots from which to choose!

I don't like Five Guys. This place made me like Five Guys…read more After several other Five Guys locations throughout the years, I decided to remove this particular fast food chain off of my list of indulgences, and the reason was because their burgers were consistently poor and their fries even poorer and cold. This changed yesterday when I tried the one in Park Royal. First thing I noticed was how clean the place was and orderly and the service matched the environment. Friendly and efficient. The Burgers were beautifully put together. Not overcooked and not squashed like most Five Guys, and the fries were the highlight. Stunningly cut and served piping hot fresh. All I gotta say is..... The Park Royal Five Guys made me give Five Guys another shot. Well done.

I had better Five Guys burger at another location. Their fries were not as good as their other locations as well. Parking here is horrible. It is like a war zone every time I come to Park Royal. On one positive note at least the restaurant is well maintained and clean.
