I had chicken fried steak in mind but the gentleman next to me had the loco moco, I've never tried that before so why not, anything with rice and gravy is a winner in my book. The loco moco was pretty darn good, but I will ask for the sausage gravy that comes with the chicken fried steak instead next time, I do love the sausage gravy better.

The taco salad was very nice with excellent shredded breast of chicken and a fresh taco shell bowl - lettuce was like it was picked out of the garden and just freshly washed & served (very fresh lettuce, which is always a bonus)! Prices are reasonable and location and parking is super easy. Service was rough this visit: 35 + min for a taco salad (they were very busy inside, but the patio was not even at 1/3 capacity, so for those of us sitting on the patio we would have no idea that the inside was super busy). Clearly experienced waitress was apologetic about the long wait when finally serving my lunch, but having waitressed for many of my earlier years, I would've liked to have heard that there was going to be a long wait when I sat down (she said unexpected busy Labor Day weekend); I would've liked the option to have opted out, as I was traveling and was looking for a quick meal break (just my opinion, but it's far better to lay out timing expectations from the onset so people can decide if they have the time to wait [then to apologize for them after the fact, when people are already frustrated and wondering why the wait felt unreasonable]). Although I wasn't as thrilled with my service experience this trip, I will continue to visit and next time just ask the question about timing ;)

I was kind of in the aisle and felt like I may be in the way of people and staff walking by, but it worked out ok. Despite it being busy, we were waited on quickly. They brought out chips and salsa to start while we reviewed the menu. I ordered the chicken with shrimp that came with rice, beans and tortillas. My husband got the chili verde chimichanga with rice and beans. The food was fresh and the plates were hot. I really enjoyed my meal and liked the flavors of the shrimp and chicken topped with cheese and fresh mushrooms. I must have been hungry because I cleaned the plate. The beans were good, and had a sweeter flavor like I like. The rice was cooked well and did not have any undercooked crunchy bits. I would surely return again when I'm in the area.

I'll be honest, I was kind of second-guessing this place when the door to the lobby was locked, and there's a sign on the window saying that they were short staffed and it was drive-thru only. I was on foot. A lot of drive-thrus won't serve people on foot, through the drive-thru, but this place did! I don't know why there's so many bad reviews about this place. I mean come on, it's fast food. You're not really doing a service to a community complaining about a $5 meal. Anyways I digress. There's a car in front of me, they got their food in two or three minutes. I walked up to the drive-thru and a nice kid there asked me if he could help me. I told him "sorry, I forgot my car at home" and he sat there for a second and kind of chuckled then I told him about usually not getting served in the Drive-Thru. He told me "yeah, I'm not going to NOT serve somebody their food, if they don't have a car! Our door is locked because we're short-staffed." What a guy! That tells me right there, that he values his job, and customers that come through. Good on him! My food was actually ready right when I got to the window which was nice. I ordered a double Whopper low carb, heavy all, and got exactly what I was expecting. Great job sir, and the rest of the staff in the back. This Burger King is actually really good.

Went to eat breakfast and I had the egg sandwich . Was better than I would ah e expected and also was quite a bit of food for the price. Hash browns were just like I like them. The waitress was very attentive and friendly. Not what I expected from looking at the outside but was a good dining experience. I'd eat here again. read more

Mediocre. Think we read some quick reviews and saw something about vegetarian friendly. The only vegetables I saw were beans from a can. A sorry salad. Fried chicken that I'm guessing came from some big box store. Generally poor impression. Though nice decor, and it seemed like a lot of locals were there. read more

The dining space itself is about as basic and plain as it gets, but don't let the unassuming interior fool you. You aren't paying for fancy decor here; you're paying for top-tier quality and an impressive, massive menu packed with authentic dishes you rarely find at standard spots. Everything tasted phenomenal, and the service was outstanding from start to finish--attentive, friendly, and quick. While it definitely sits on the higher end of the price spectrum for Mexican cuisine, the quality of the ingredients, authentic execution, and stellar service make every penny worth it.

He came back and they said that they combined the two kids orders into one box. No big deal.

The girl at the front said, "I was the one that took your call. I told you how big the quesadillas were, what's the problem?!" I told her that I would like another one. She charged me full price even though I didn't want another side that comes with it.
