At Wendy's, my experience was unsatisfactory. The service was slow, and the staff seemed disorganized. The food quality didn't meet expectations; the burger was overcooked and lacked flavor, while the fries were soggy and under-seasoned. The cleanliness of the restaurant was subpar, with unclean tables and a messy dining area. Overall, my visit left much to be desired, and I was disappointed by the lack of attention to detail and the overall poor experience. read more

Not sure if there was a replacement of ownership but none of the usual workers I tend to see were there. I place an order for not only me but my mental health patients. A COLD CUT COMBO. The simplest most common sandwich (Ham,Salami,Bologna,Cheese). And i took that right off of their menu. The worker proceeds to only put bologna. When I called him out on it I got lectured by the manager (maybe owner) about how Im wrong and Bologna has ham and salami in it. I AM NOT JOKING!! They really debated me even after pointing out how the sandwich is made on the screen with the menu right behind them. As a mental health worker I have no time to go back and forth with them so I swallowed my pride and take the sandwiches. My clients were so dissatisfied I drove to another subway in East Hampton. I hope the owner and manager see this because guess what? I HAD NO PROBLEM GETTING A COLD CUT COMBO MADE THE RIGHT WAY!!!!! I won't be returning! My agency has been made aware to stay away. Next time try listening to the customer and maybe you won't lose so much business in one day. Around 178.

I recently planned an errand in the general Old Saybrook area so I could try both at Jack Rabbits. I had the vague impression that there may be more than one part to Jack Rabbits. I went to the part that's more of a bar. It was crowded. There was one table open, but I opted for one of the last seats at the bar. If Jack Rabbits isn't quite a dive bar, it's dive-bar-adjacent. There were clearly a lot of area regulars there. The bartenders were all friendly and helpful. They knew the names of a lot of customers. Always a good sign. The thing about trying both the hot dog and wing part of the menu when you're alone, you can't really do a deep dive into either part of the menu. And the depth of the menu, definitely warranted a deep dive. I'll return to try more of the menu with reinforcements next time. I ordered a New York style hot dog, which was served with a split and grilled Hummel as the base. The toppings included sweet pepper relish, mustard, bacon pieces, kraut and onions. There was a lot going on in a way that I enjoyed. The dog was well cooked. They had a number of specialty dogs I'd like to try. I also ordered 8 Sriracha Lime Cilantro wings, and ate four there and brought the rest home for my son. Good flavor. Good texture. Meaty wings at a goods price. My son liked them too. Wing Addicts had another good call. I'll definitely return. 4.5 Stars
