I just left this place... Both people who got food in front of me had both of their orders messed…read moreup. The woman in front of me had hers messed up not once, not twice, but three times! With only these two people in front of me, we spent probably 15 minutes in line just waiting to order. The staff didn't even seem to know what they were doing. There was no coordination or communication with the people in line, and all in all, those disappointing interactions have turned me away from this Wendy's. If you're in this area trying to find food, go somewhere else unless you have a cult following for Wendy's.

I've been stopping at this Wendy's for decades. It's always been one of my reliable fast-food…read morestops. It has easy freeway access right off I-5 (Fife Exit)?and is open from 6 AM to 2 AM, which makes it a great option when many other restaurants have already closed. Since COVID, late-night dining options have become much more limited, so I appreciate having this open extended hours. I honestly can't believe I've never written a review for this Wendy's before because I've probably been here hundreds of times over the years. Tonight I stopped in because I had been hearing about the new Chocolate (or Vanilla) Frosty with Banana Swirl, and as someone who absolutely loves the frozen chocolate-covered banana slices from Costco, I had to give it a try. I also ordered a 10-piece Chicken Nuggets with Sweet Chili sauce and my longtime Wendy's favorite--a Small Chili with extra onions, extra shredded cheese, and light sour cream. If you haven't tried it that way, I highly recommend it! I usually add half a packet of Wendy's hot sauce, two packages of saltine crackers. It's one of my favorite fast-food meals at only **420 calories with 24 grams of protein.** With a Wendy's offer applied to my order, my total came to **just $9.55 including tax** for a chili, 10-piece nuggets, two Sweet Chili dipping sauces, and the specialty Banana Chocolate Frosty. I thought that was an excellent value for everything I received. The drive-thru took a little longer than usual, but it was obvious the employees were doing their best. I think one of the crew members was brand new. He was polite, kept saying, "Gotcha!" with a smile, and although a few things were accidentally missed, I appreciated his attitude. We've all been new at a job before, and I'd much rather see someone trying hard than someone who doesn't care. **Chocolate Banana Frosty** This ended up being the highlight of my meal! At first I honestly thought they had forgotten the banana because the first few bites tasted exactly like a regular Chocolate Frosty. Then I realized almost all of the banana syrup had settled to the bottom of the cup! Once I stirred everything together, it was delicious. The banana flavor reminded me of banana Laffy Taffy, but without that overly artificial aftertaste that banana-flavored desserts sometimes have. Ironically, they gave me too much banana syrup! I'd much rather have too much than none at all, though. With the normal amount of banana, this easily would have been a **9/10**. Even with the extra syrup, I'd still rate it an **8/10**, and next time I want to try the **Vanilla Frosty with Banana Swirl** for comparison. The nuggets had a surprisingly good chicken flavor and tasted like real breast meat. They weren't fresh out of the fryer, and a couple had clearly been sitting for a little while, but overall they were still moist and enjoyable. The Sweet Chili dipping sauce was also a pleasant surprise. I usually order McDonald's Sweet & Sour because I like sweeter sauces, but Wendy's Sweet Chili had a nice balance. It was just a little spicier than I personally prefer. If they dialed back the heat just a touch, I think it would be nearly perfect. My chili was loaded with extra onions exactly as I requested (which made me happy!), although my sour cream and crackers were accidentally left out. Overall, despite a few small mistakes, I left feeling like the employees genuinely cared and were working hard. Good customer service isn't always about perfection--sometimes it's about attitude--and everyone I interacted with was friendly and doing their best. I'll definitely be back...especially for another Banana Frosty!

The inside of the store is really nice and they still have their fountain drink machine working as I know many other locations have removed their machines. They usually have a good stock straws, napkins and lids which is appreciated. They do also make you pull up to bring out orders at times but that's a not huge deal for us but I know it is for others on limited time. It's not a bad location as I have been to other McDonald's that are much more worse. This location is usually the better one to visit if you are ever wanting to try a limited time item or wanting any Happy Meal toys.

When I went to pick up via drive thru, they made my drinks and then told me to park aside the restaurant and wait for the rest of my order. It was another 15-20 min wait before I got my food. I think part of the reason why it took a long time was because he thought this other car was mine even though I parked right where the mobile pick-up sign was located :/ There were some food items that I had special request like to have it be grilled so I was fine with waiting longer but turns out they didn't even grill it lol. Waiting for 45 min after placing on online order for pick up is ridiculous.

I grew up in Southern California, eating at In-n-Out and not realizing how good I had it. And as I…read moremoved around the country, my baseline for what makes a good cheeseburger remained the Double-double Animal Style. And rarely did anything come close. Until Pick-Quick . To begin with, the burgers made by both joints are similar, but please don't go expecting an exact match. And that's a good thing. There are plenty of places in the Puget Sound region trying too hard to make a poor facsimile. Pick-Quick goes another direction. This is a plus in my book. The bun is just right. The meat patty griddled to perfection. The cheese is cheese, and the veggies are what you'd expect. But the onion is the game changer. No lettuce to give you crunch but little if anything else besides potential intestinal distress (looking at you, Taco Bell). It's a single, solid slice of sweet, mild onion, a flat ring that adds a solid crunch and a satisfying counterbalance to the rest of the burger. A change in perspective that is both welcome and delightful. And they've got a picnic area to enjoy instead of a dining room. So there's that. Their fries are great. The shakes are great. The service takes a while, but that's because they're actually back there, making your order and the orders of the forty people who got there before you. And the wait is a part of the charm. A rite of passage, a way to atone for whatever sins you've made against the cheeseburger gods, for which you will be greatly rewarded in half an hour. Suck it up and deal.

I wouldn't say that the service was particularly "fast", but the drive thru was packed and the young workers that so could see were all working quickly and really professional and friendly. We ordered a double kraut & mustard meal- which was as it should be, fries were ok, but it was the Polish sandwich that was reminiscent of childhood kolbassy sandwiches in Pittsburgh. The flavorful slightly spicy sausage had very little fat, it was sliced in half, served on thick slices of soft rye seeded bread, with a thin layer of mustard, slice of cheese and a crisp dill pickle. It was heavenly- I'm sorry that I didn't snap a photo. I just read online that they are known for the shakes- which no doubt we would've also enjoyed. I'll be on the lookout for Wienerschnitzel in my future travels.

The so-called curry bowl that I received was disgusting. The channa had no taste, the chicken was supposed to be curry. There was no curry powder on that chicken, the chicken was more likely just sautéed and seasoning and placed on yellow rice. Nowhere in Trinidad that plate would've been sold, they don't do that. I wanted to get doubles, however they didn't have any more bara. Please if you're going to call your establishment "Trini plate" make sure you're actually cooking the cultural dishes.
