“On July 16, 2025 at 12:40 PM I brought my kids here for lunch. We had gone to Jack-in-the-box first but they wanted us to order with a stupid kiosk so we left and came here.
I really appreciate that I can still order in person here.
We all enjoyed our food. I really love the Diablo burger. And our server, Miranda, was very polite and professional.“

“I would definitely recommend it for it's different, but definitely good potato snacks, however, when eating there or waiting your order then you definitely want to sit somewhere else. All of their tables and chairs were so sticky, looked, and felt like they hadn't been cleaned in forever“

“Horrible experience ordering food online to pickup curbside.
1. Ordered at 3:35 PM Sunday 6/22/25.
2. Showed up @ 3:56 PM.
3. Clicked Im here.
4. Nobody ever showed up I called @ 4:05 PM and they said they will send someone out.
5. I called to talk to a manager a girl answered and I said I am the manager I told her what happened I showed up and was waiting for 6 min I was wondering why it was taking so long cause I was there Two cars showed up ordered and got there food and I was still waiting to get my order that was placed 30 min ago by this time. She said ok hold on put me through to another person who he said he was the manager and I said I was told I was speaking to the manager he said he is I said ok why did I have to talk to and tell the other girl if she was not the manager. Anyways had to tell him the whole thing again about when I placed my order how long I was there in the parking lot waiting to get my order he said we have cameras let me check as if I was lying he said I placed my order at 3:35 PM they received it at 3:40 PM stated naik g it it was done and completed put in the front window @ 3:57 PM I then asked why did my order not come till 4:07 PM and now my food is cold he proceed to tell me they have a container that keeps food warm he talked to the front and informed them to check the front to see if curbside showed up. Never made me another fresh order or actually care about what I had to say. I just wanted an expiration if there were no cars in the drive thru and minimal people inside how come my food sat waiting for almost 7 min before they decided to bring me my order after they had no guests. 2 people arrived after I was waiting and ordered their food and left why I sat and waited still. He said nothing about remaking my order fresh or comp me a fry or drink or refund anything this is not a fast food I would ever tell anyone to go eat cause the food is good or the service is good or the employees are nice they were all negative and rude. I will take my money and tell everyone I know not to go to that fast food to eat or spend money. Go elsewhere where you're considerate and are welcomed to there establishment“

“We stopped here on our way back home to the Bay Area. The chicken curry was delicious and very flavorful. The ginger and chili tadka that chef made to the curry reminded me of eating at any Dhaba in India. The food is traditional Indian, fresh and carries solid flavor. We have two kids and we requested the chef to make bhindi for kids. Chef made the bhindi non spicy for the kids and the kids loved it. Overall a great place with great value for money.“

“As for fast food junk food I prefer their ice cream twists over other Frostees. I'll pass other Frostees and go across town to come to this one. Apple Jack banana is my go to but I've gotten at least 6 flavors in the past. They have more flavors than their competitors. I can't give them five stars because I've never had their cooked food. The drive-thru is weird to get in and out of especially for big vehicles, but I still come here. The window attendants are always super nice. I've literally never had a complaint about my ice cream when I come here.“

“Good fast service, food was quality and a rare staple for those that know.“

“I had an amazing experience thanks to Amanda, Angel, and Michele! From the moment I arrived, they were all incredibly welcoming, professional, and attentive to every detail. Amanda was so helpful and knowledgeable, Angel brought such great energy and made the whole experience fun, and Michele was beyond kind and efficient. You can really tell they care about what they do and about the people they serve. Thank you all for the outstanding service—I’ll definitely be back and recommending you to others!“

“Love the chicken fingers and the Cane sauce, delicious 😋“

“The breakfast burrito will certainly fill you up for all day.. Kind staff“

“We’ve been here quite a few times for all their goodies! The bubble tea is fantastic, Korean corn dogs out of this world! Today we tried the Korean milk donuts and just WOW! We got one of each flavor, crème brûlée being our favorite! But you cannot and will not go wrong with any of them! Get the donuts! They sell out fast and are only available on the weekends so go once he posts them! The owner is also a fantastic man!!“

“I'm visiting from England. My first time eating Mexican food. These quesabirria were simply one of the most delicious things I've ever eaten. Shared one to taste and then went back for more. If that were the last thing I ever ate, I would die a happy woman!!!“

“the time I went it was really quiet and fast service. very friendly people“

“I'm like a food critic without the license, and I came from Alaska, so I came to this place almost to midnight time on my day off working 6 days straight, lol. I was craving a BURGER and came to this place, and I haven't eaten dinner yet, lol. I have massive high-quality taste buds for food and more on the menu to try out soon, Lord Willing. I randomly selected BIG ANGUS EL DIABLO DOUBLE BURGER. I Highly recommend to add Guacamole for sure or you can choose to add Pineapple if you like and recommend ordering an extra container of the burger sause that comes in the burger. And if you love fried zucchini, then definitely remember to ask for a special request to get your zucchini "Cooked to Order" so it will be super fresh. Overall wonderful place and atmosphere, and the customer service in the front window that was counting the money she was very well mannered and helpful throughout my time checking everything on the menu and she shown a lot of patience on allowing me to take my time figure out what I wanted to order on the menu and she made sure everything was correct, so sorry if I forgot your name so keep up the good work from the time I was there at about 11 ish, you deserve a raise!. everything tasted fresh and was very fulfilling with massive portions in every bite of my Burger that clearly outbeats most if not all other fast food places because I'm CLEARLY getting the burger the same size and look at the photo on the screen and thats how a real Burger should look like, it was nice and Hot and super juicy and really nice crunch testure, the, the Zucchini are nicely seasoned and flaky and was not dry!!. Great price overall. Also, all the cooks or cook in the back and everyone else did an amazing job with the cooking today and everything and wonderful experience getting it at the drive-through at this location. You can park and come inside when they lobby is open or walk here and enjoy the amazing atmosphere they have and the clean environment while dining in or take out. They also have condiments to get or ask for them. I highly recommend them for when you're hungry or family dine in or if you're in a hurry going through drive-through. I have a few recommendations, more staff to maintain the tables when they are done being used so more people can sit down without waiting especially when it gets busy, I haven't experienced the bathroom but make sure to always check it every now and then so everything is in order. Overall Keep up the good work everyone and the people in the back, and whoever else that was working tonight, they deserves a raise and a couple of new business shirt uniforms and hats and name tags for all the employees. God Bless ??“

“Excellent choice when you are watching your weight, cutting down on carbs and want affordable healthy fast food.“

“It's been years since I last visited this place but I can say I did enjoy my meal and the pleasant atmosphere there. And considering today's prices on food it's still a good bargain. Ordered two #1 meals comes with drinks for less than $25. They do offer senior and or military discount. My wife suggested the we go more often and I agree.“

“The food was hot and fresh. Delicious 😋 great service too.“

“I came here on a Sunday morning and ordered a single breakfast burger combo with no ketchup. This location is your run of the mill Carl’s Jr.;Customer service is decent like most people have written. The gentleman with glasses greeted me outside the restaurant while I was making a phone call; which was nice. But I thanked another young man handing me the food but he didn’t bother to say anything. Just asked me if I needed any sauce. Even told the two guys working to have a good day but still nothing. They were probably stuck in their conversation. Overall it’s a decent Carl’s Jr. I’ve been to better and I’ve been to worse so this location is right in the middle. Restrooms were sort of clean, but it did have a strange heavy smell in there.“

“This is such a nice Taco Bell. The employees are professional and courteous. Our order was correct. It was delicious. The new chicken tenders were recommended. They were right! Yummy and not at all dry. There was this lovely employee who bought lunch for a local, frequent person who's down on his luck. It was heartwarming to see that he was treated with such civility and kindness. We'll definitely be returning and recommending this Taco Bell location“

“Amazing because me and my girlfriend enjoy the food really love it“

“Had the bacon breakfast burrito. yummy. thanks.“

“Excellent choice when you are watching your weight, cutting down on carbs and want affordable healthy fast food.“

“There was a menu change recently, and some AI bot in the drive thru that can’t answer questions. Luckily Kayla was there to assist and still get me what I was looking for (that wasn’t on the menu necessarily). A+ employee in the drive thru. Thank you so much, Kayla. Legit made that experience so much easier.“

“This is my second time coming to happy Dragon. The first time was right when they opened. The service was very friendly, but the first time the food was just so so. It’s been many months so I thought I would try it again and the food was much better. We’ve obviously gotten all the kinks worked out. Fast food is pretty decent quality and price.“

“I was a walk in customer at this location 3-20-25 2:00 pm. I had contact with two associates. Both were friendly & very pleasant to be served by. The interior/exterior was very clean & neat. The associates at this location are doing a A+ job.“

“been to every burger joint in bako , this has been the best so far . we ordered the burger combo , and the pastrami combo .simply fantastic . looking forward to going there again .“
