Dearest Wendy, I am torn. I am broken. I have tried forever to abandon you for my own sake. But I can't quit you. I have loved you since I was but a small child roaming the fields of the homeland and my longing thoughts for you have never changed. But alas, time goes on and I have grown older and wiser. My body has grown weak and tiresome. I know that as long as we have been embracing one another, your touch, your taste, your smells have taken their toll on me. I am not as young as I once was, so I suffer for days after I visit you. Why do I torture myself like this? Why do I keep myself up all night staring at the wall as my stomach drops into the pits of Hades? Because... (whispering) You are Wendy. (Cue epic music) There is no other Wendy. There is only one Wendy. AND THAT WENDY.... IS YOU!!! read more

Corporate needs to do some process optimization for this location. Takes way too long for orders to be taken and received. Definitely not coming back I'd it takes 15 minutes to order. Its not even that busy! read more

5 star for the friendliness, staff was very friendly and considerate. Offered me cup holders without needing to ask them. Food was fresh and hot when I receive them. Drive through was quick, came thru on a busy hour. No complaints here. read more

im not a big fan of Wendy's to begin with but what the hell at least clean your store, if theres dust bunnies in the corners to me that means you havent cleaned the place for a long time or at least no properly and the staff has an attitude when you tell them about is it too much to ask to keep the place you're preparing food clean?? read more

Lets just say my experience at this location inspired me to create a yelp account. Tonight I went here after work to grab a quick crispy chicken sandwich...NEVER AGAIN. I literally waited in the drive thru line for FORTY-SEVEN MINUTES of my life! The whole time I was in line I was preparing my sympathetic heart...assuming that there must be 2 people MAX working here tonight. I figured that there could not possibly be more than 2 employees since the drive thru was moving at a painfully glacial pace. When I made it to the drive thru intercom no one answered to receive my order so revised my initial guess of the number of employees to 1. The same person that was taking the orders must have also been taking payments, cooking the food, and packing it for the customers. It HAD to be a one person show. When I arrived at the last window I was astonished to see that the place was bustling with employees...I mean that place was FULLY staffed!! Three of the employees were just hanging out at the drive through window. I still have NO idea what took sooo long. You would think that they were making every customer's order in a crock pot. In conclusion, if you want a quick bite to eat, this location is NOT for you. However, if you're in the mood to celebrate NATIONAL I'M JUST GOING TO BE HELD HOSTAGE IN THE DRIVE THRU FOR AN HOUR WHILE WENDYS EMPLOYEES CHAT AMONGST THEMSELVES AND FAIL TO TAKE MY ORDER AND JUST SUCK AT LIFE DAY you might wanna check this place out. I on the other hand...will be across the street at IN-N-OUT. read more

Without a doubt, great selection.....very unique 24 hr fast food selection when you don't want the same old thing....but SLOWEST DRIVE THRU EVER, not an exaggeration! You need the patience of a yoga master to eat here. In 'n Out down the street has a line a block long and goes faster! At some point you can't actually call it fast food anymore. And it's not just a random busy night....every time I have ever come for anything here it's like 15-20 min in the drive thru, minimum, and it's not even all that busy. At some point you have to wonder "why can all the other fast food chains get me through in half the time....consistently?" And yet....we alllll come back....for those damn potatoes, bacon burgers, chili and frosty desserts.....ug! On a positive note. My order is almost always right. P.S. I'm writing this review in the drive thru, it's been 11 min and I haven't even gotten to order my food yet..... read more

I feel a little silly reviewing a guilt pleasure fast food chain, but I am moved to do so by the EXCELLENT service with a smile I always receive at this location. In a hurry, and want your order to come out right the first time? Come here. This location runs like a well-oiled machine and the employees literally could not be nicer. There's a large parking lot where you can enjoy your meal in the car (I've never dined inside, so I can't speak to that aspect). Anyway, I hope the employees see this and know they are appreciated. read more

I am secretly attracted to you, Wendy's. You and your healthy baked potatoes when I am about 1 sheet to the wind. Thank you for aiding and abetting in my night of drunken vandalism about the city of Los Angeles. My friends and I, we all needed to get hammered last night and being hammered necessitates fuel. Those baked potatoes make my tummy sing. read more

I like Wendy's food. The quality at this location is consistent and service is pretty good at the drive-thru. Unfortunately, this Wendy's is not in the best neighborhood and it can get uncomfortable when panhandlers hang out at the drive-thru. read more

See all

This was my order at this Wendy location I had to send my coworker back twice and the third time the order was still wrong at all cost avoid this place it's my worth your time and money read more

Wendy's - Burgers Near Me - Culver City, California

JUST left Wendy's and the guy at the register was being very rude and was a complete smart ass. He had asked me what kind of flavor sauces I wanted but in a very low voice and I said Chocolate cause I thought he was asking about the frosty I had ordered and he replied "i said dipping sauces you already told me you wanted a chocolate frosty" and started laughing. And as I was standing there waiting for my order he saw that i was sipping my frosty and said " why don't you grab a spoon instead you're gonna hurt yourself " and proceeded to laugh again. I was already having a bad day and he just made it much worse. Never in my life have I felt so uncomfortable at a fast food restaurant. read more

in my 24 years i've never found reason to step foot inside a wendy's, especially in the past few years, as i found The Way in college & The Way is called flexitarianism (i.e., half-assed vegetarianism). but it was late last night. the boy & i were fungry & desperate (flashback to spoons & chopsticks, except this time we were in culver city). we were tired of in-n-out. we passed by wendy's & visions of those commercials featuring their fish burgers danced in my head. so we decided to give it a shot. scanned the menu several times. no fish burger. asked the tired girl behind the counter. promotion over. grrrrr! i'd been through way too much that night to get back in the car & drive over to in-n-out for a grilled cheese sammie so i promised myself a week of veg-no-seafood & begrudgingly ordered their grilled chicken sandwich. the boy went with a cheeseburger (those square patties really creep me out) & we each got a baked potato. i'd like to say you get what you paid for, but we would've paid for less & gotten more/better if we had gone for the alternative fast food establishment; cheap/fast food doesn't *have* to be unsatisfying. the meat in both of our orders was dry. i had a big piece of watery iceberg lettuce in mine. & our baked potatoes were covered in what resembled tiny green confetti trying to pass themselves off as chives. wendy's, please come through next time & prove that you're not just another craptastic state in the fast food nation. read more

I usually don't eat fast food but I had to come here for somebody else and the line when I come here is always a mile long I live right around the block so whenever we have people over and they want fast food that's kind of where I go. I can at least get a salad and a blueberry pineapple green tea But today was the icing on the cake when the security guard literally was sitting there talking to me about my car until I had to roll the window up and tell him goodbye Told me that I need to be in a Mercedes and that will buy my car from me... It was absolutely absurd after I rolled my window up he actually came and approached me again tapped on my window and made me roll it down and told me that he needs to give me his phone number in case I ever decide to sell my car! I told him I have no interest in selling my car help this isn't even my car! Doesn't even matter I don't need to be harassed by security guard when trying to go through the drive-through at Wendy's slightly ridiculous I must say read more

Open 24 hours. Entrance can be tough to enter if turning in from Venice/Culver. Food is consistent. Line moves smoothly inside and on drive thru. read more

This Wendys is simply horrible. Whenever I order a burger or sandwich from there, it is ALWAYS cold. I literally live 5 minutes from the restaurant so it doesn't have long way to travel to get home. I give them the benefit of a doubt, so I will come back and give them another try, but the burger is always cold. Maybe I'm ordering the wrong thing, but this Wendy's puts other Wendy's to shame. read more

It wasn't my first time here. Wendy's is comfort food for me. And I've had marginally bad experiences at this franchise before. But I was tired and hungry... and it was late... so I pulled in one night and had the worst drive through experience of my life. Let's face it. The food at any Wendy's will taste about the same as at any other Wendy's. So you don't always go to Wendy's for the food as much as you go for the convenience and service. And my review here is about incredibly poor service specifically at the Culver City Venice Blvd. Wendy's restaurant. On a weeknight, after a workout, I was stuck in their drive through line for more than TWENTY FIVE very long minutes. That's not an exaggeration! 25 minutes! And there was no way of escaping...there were cars in front of me and cars behind me and, given the way it is constructed, there is absolutely no way to leave once you are in the drive-through line. I was trapped. And it gets worse. It was nighttime and there were homeless people coming up to all of our car windows and asking for money. It was extremely uncomfortable. Two of the cars in the unmoving line resorted to honking their horns in an attempt to get the line moving and/or chase away the panhandlers. But honking did absolutely no good. I thought about calling the police. I sat there, frustration growing, and listened to the lady in front of me complain about how long she'd been waiting and how unsafe she felt. Someone I believe to be the manager just patronized her. She then asked for free food as compensation for her time. She didn't get anything. She was clearly very angry. Even though there was nowhere for me to go, I was done. There was no way I was going to eat anything served by such a clearly incompetent cast of characters employed at this Wendy's Restaurant. (I wish I had read some of these other reviews prior to my visit.) When my turn to order came, a genuinely amused and happy young voice came on the intercom and asked me what they could do for me. I simply said, "What can you do for me? You can let me out of this line!" But it would still be several minutes before the cars in front of me were served their food and I could leave. Who runs this place??? I will never give this Wendy's any of my money under any circumstance ever again. In 'n Out is just down the street. I hope you go there. McDonald's is a little further down Venice. Or go to another Wendy's if you must. But, for efficiency's sake and maybe even for your own personal safety, I hope you stay far away from this extremely unprofessional and poorly run Wendy's franchise. And if you must go here, I hope your experience will be better than mine. Whatever you do, don't get in the drive-through lane; It might be a looooong time before you can get out again! Good luck. read more

This is not a good restaurant. Bad customer service. I ordered a burger, chicken sandwich, fries and nuggets with sauce. The correct items were listed on the receipt. I was given a burger instead of the chicken sandwich and no sauce for the nuggets. The chicken sandwich was for a friend that does not eat red meat as i explained to customer service via email. After a few difficult exchanges through email with customer service they agreed to replace the meal free of charge. They told me to see the manager and he would be informed about it. When i went to the location i talked to the mgr Dante. He started cross examining me about what happened and if i do not eat meat why did i order a burger and i explained that the chicken sandwich was not for me. He continued to scrutinize me and then showed me he had the email from customer service on his phone. i don't what point he was trying to make but i just wanted the replacement meal promised to me. He finally agreed to give me a refund after giving me a hard time. He received the email from customer service and could have easily given me the meal but chose to try and get in an argument with me. I will never go back to this location since they seem to have a problem filling a simple order and do not care about the customer. read more

This is the closest Wendy's to my house and of course in traffic, it can easily take me 20 minutes to get here but sometimes I just need a burger and a Frosty! Lol! My food is good every time I come. My only complaint is at night, the drive-thru could be long and sloooowww. On a Friday night, I was in the drive thru for 20 minutes before. I dined in on the inside this week and it was pretty clean but there were a couple of flies inside, that was annoying. There is also a security guard randomly walking around and watching people eat. I find it to be a little creepy. I never been in a Wendy's with a security guard before so maybe he is there because kids are frequently in the area? I don't know. read more

The worst Wendy's I've ever been to. They seriously charge you for a refill of regular Iced Tea.

The young gentleman working the drive thru window tonight was really nice and polite!! That's a rarity nowadays.

Wendy's really needs to pull it together an open up a location closer to my house. To have to drive 4 miles down the 10 freeway just to get a triple stack, biggie fries and a frosty in my pie hole is just flat out un-American. read more

I love wendys but the cheapskate owners needs to hire more workers. Every time I go here the drive line is 15 to 20 minutes long. Tonight it was out onto the street. I witnessed several cars drive away because the line was too long. The owner of this wendys is too stupid to realize he is leaving money on the table by not hiring more employees. All the cars that drove away would have been more than enough to find two more employees more cars would come if this place lived up to its "fast food" title. read more

Best baconator ever. Real thick meat. Bacon was perfectly layered. This is my first review on yelp I had to yelp this meal. I can't type anymore because I have to finish eating it! read more

This Wendy's has to be the worst. They let homeless people sleep inside. I bought chilli and when I got to work I opened it and the chilli was so cold the cheese wasnt even melted. This was the worst experience. Everyone in their should be fired. The date is 5/13/2019 and the time was 5pm. So whoever was on staff at that time will end up getting someone sick. read more

You want to waste away in a drive thru and feel like all hope is lost and it's never going to move? Oh boy, do I have a place for you. Come on down to this Wendy's and spend more time waiting than you would at In N Out for seemingly no good reason. For awhile I was able to see the car at the window not move as I also did not move. This isn't my first experience like this here, it's like this almost every time and I only return because it's convenient, only to remember that I'd actually save time driving miles to another Wendy's. read more

The line here is outrageous, and once you pull in you are totally trapped and can't drive out. I won't be making this mistake again.

Closest wendys to my house. Drive thru can get busy after midnight but overall its pretty standard for a frosty run.

Good food. 3 stars b/c if you don't speak Spanish they don't treat you with that much respect unlike to the ones that speak Spanish.

Fast service. Spicy chicken combo hits the spot every time.

Hello!! My name is John, I live in LA, California and I am a avid eater. I probably go out to eat 3-4 times a week and I always love to try new things. I have worked in the food industry all my life starting off as a teen at Marble Slab Co. I've worked in every kind of restaurant; Independently owned, Fast Food chain, Ice Cream shops, Fine Dinning restaurants,Food Trucks, Farmers Markets and even private catered events. In doing everything in the industry from washing dishes to cooking food and even managing the entire restaurant, I feel that i have aquired a good feel for great customer service and awesome food. So I decided to start a blog. I live in LA and there are so many places to eat out here, that it can easily get overwelming on trying to pick a place to eat. My friends constantly ask me whats good and where to go. So this is the beginning of my blog about food. I will update every week if not every day. I eat every kind of food, I have no dietary restrictions but I don't shy away from gluten free or vegan, I love all kinds of food. Today I start with one of americas favorites. WENDYS So I'm starting this blog with Wendys, I actually haven't been to a Wendy's in probably almost 3 years now. This burger has been getting amazing reviews by the press and I told my partner that we must try this amazing new item. I am personally a big fan of the idea of using pretzel bread and it makes my mouth water just thinking about it. We went to the Wendy's in LA, on Venice Blvd, and decided to eat in because we wanted to try it as fresh as possible to keep quality taste. The service was always fast and friendly as I expect from a Wendy's. We were very hungry so we ordered Pretzel Burger Meal - The single not double (I wanted the double personally) 2 JR Bacon Cheeseburger 2 Spicy Chicken Nuggets As you can see from my pictures the burger doesn't quite look like the picture the advertise. It no where near as fluffy and amazing looking which is ok, I mean, lets be honest, when does the food usually look like their picture. I used to always joke with my mom when I was a kid and say that it looks like a sumo wrestler sat on my burgers. We got the JR Bacon, because, it is very close to the same thing as the pretzel just different bread and less veggies. All in All, I give the pretzel burger a 3 stars. The price for what you got I thought was a little bit high when you can get a JR Bacon for $1. I felt like the bread was good and went well with the meat but the patty was just kinda small for me. I felt like it was the same size as the JR Bacon. I personally would like to try the pretzel on a chicken sandwhich considering I think wendy's has some of the best chicken in fast food. Like I said overall for the Pretzel its just not worth the 6$ price tag. OVERALL RATING 3 Stars for the Pretzel Burger 4 Stars for JR Bacon Cheesebuger 4 Stars for Spicy Chicken Nuggets 4 Stars for Customer Service 3 Stars for Overall Value of Pretzel Burger In the news Wendy's may have just discovered the best thing since sliced bread. The fast-food chain's pretzel bacon cheeseburger, rolled out last month, has been such a hit with US customers that same-store sales in the current quarter could hit a nine-year high. Mark Kalinowski of Janney Capital Market called the burger "Wendy's best new-product introduction in the last 10 years" -- since the chain rolled out high-end salads in 2002. http://www.nypost.com/p/news/business/wendy_in_the_dough_due_to_pretzel_JmN1RLojj0yu8MHXlFDfOL http://lafoodspot.blogspot.com/ read more

Everytime I come here it's either on my break or before work and the same lady is always there talking with security while I'm waiting to order. After placing my order she asks my name and I tell her, she never calls my name only my food order. She is a Hispanic lady and my name is Latin so I don't see what the problem is. Also once I ordered a ceasar salad and found a bugs wing in my food. I didn't get an apology or anything they just refunded my money. read more

The first two times I been here, the service was so bad I swore I wouldn't come back. Tried it for a third time and same thing slow and rude service! read more

Unfortunately won't be returning to this particular location. The amount of activity gave the impression that it was quite busy and I sometimes equate busy with fresher, hotter food because of the high turnover. After utilizing the drive thru to purchase our food we were disappointed to discover that it wasn't even warm. My hamburger bun was still cold in one corner and the fries weren't even lukewarm. I will make sure to check my food before leaving the vicinity next time but I will not go back to this Wendy's. read more

Late night customer service is one of the best I have experienced at a drive-through. Thank you!

I love Wendy's, and this Wendy's has been the go-to one in my area, but lately they're really slacking at this particular location. Everyone in front of me had something wrong with their orders. So when I got mine, surprise! Things were wrong. They made it for here when I ordered it to go, which they quickly corrected, and forgot my drink which they also corrected. But when I get home I realize there's (I shit you not) a tangle of hair in my chicken nuggets and neither of the two sauces I asked for! Love Wendy's but this location needs to get it together read more

One of two closer (read: less horrendously out of the way then other locales) Wendy's in the UCLA area. This one is close to the freeway exit. It's a typical Wendy's, really, which means they have a formidable dollar menu, slightly sweet bread (better than it sounds) and late hours. Chicken nuggets... if you get a fresh batch, they're crispy, juicy, piping hot hunks of chicken and if not, they're still good and cheap. The fries at Wendy's are one of their weak points, unfortunately; if you're REALLY craving fries, go across the street to the In and Out if it's not busy. Jr. Bacon Cheeseburgers and Double Stacks are well worth the money. If you order a potato, make sure you get the chili with it as well. Alone, they're edible if flawed, but eat them at the same time and they become great and cover each others' weaknesses. read more

Honestly I haven't had any issues with the food at this location but something is seriously wrong with the water & drinks. Yesterday I got a starwberry iced tea that was litterally the most disgusting thing I have ever tasted, so bad that I got immediately ill shortly after drinking it. Thinking that this may have been a fluke or possibly an unknown allergy I went back this morning and order breakfast with a water. The water tasted like it was poured through a rusted metal pipe and again made me sick, I rinsed out the cup and put water from the faucet in my work building to again be sure that it wasn't something else, water was fine and I have been using the cup all day. There is something seriously wrong with the water and drinks being served from this location. For this reason I am affraid to go back there, sorry Wendy's gonna have to go somewhere else. read more

I hate this Wendy's. 3 times they have either not given me food I ordered, or given me the totally wrong thing, this is at lunch time when I don't have time to go back and fix it. So I've gone hungry and lost money more then once.. It's fast food not brain surgery. I even wrote a complaint to Wendy's.. Their response? Sorry. No coupons no money back. Nothing. Don't waste your hard earned money here. read more

Went to this Wendy's two nights ago. Been here many times before. Food was ok. The Jr. Bacon Cheeseburger didn't taste as good as on prior occasions. Long wait at drive through as always. Ordered the chili. Was good but they didn't offer to add cheese or onions so I forgot to have them add it. read more

This Wendy's is very good at getting the drive thru orders out quickly. Also, each time I've come here, the food has been hot and fresh, which i find to be the most important aspect of "eating out". read more
