8 Best Fast Food Restaurants in Carmichael

“Best, by far, burgers in Sacramento county.“

“Great sandwiches! Don't let the long lines bother you at lunch, they are really fast! Self-serve soda, my favorite.“

“We went to this location's drive thru yesterday around 2:30 or so and were told by the person taking orders that there was something wrong with drive thru ordering and to please come inside. I went inside and instantly noticed the workers were slammed which was the real reason they were not taking drive thru orders. The drive thru order taker was needed on the line. I worked food service for about 25 years, including diners, so I understood the real reason the drive thru wasn't working. No big deal. I realized a big part of the problem was that most of the orders were HUGE DoorDash orders. And more Door Dash delivery drivers were coming in constantly. BK simply does not have the staff to handle such a big work load and in the end this will bite them in the butt. It took about 15 minutes before I even got to order. This is not a slam, but a simple fact. There were people on the line freaking out, calling other workers to come in to help, people on the line threatening to walk out because they couldn't handle it. After I finally got my order in it was another 25 minutes as I noticed 4 FAMILIES and a Door Dash delivery guy who order AFTER me got their orders before I got mine. During this time there was a young man who had to leave the burger make station to help package fries and nuggets. I had noticed that he was wearing gloves but had reached into his pocket to get his phone at least 3 times. He became frustrated with the tongs necessary to grab the nuggets, sat it aside and said he was just going to use his hands. As someone who has been ServSafe certified in food safety and sanitation I immediately spoke up and said "Change your gloves, you have had your hands in your pockets at least 3 times." He asked what I said and I repeated. He left the line while removing his gloves and stayed in the office for most the rest of the time I was there. Also, during this 2 workers, Tiera and a male with long dreads, strolled in like an old lady with no sense of urgency while the other workers were panicking to get caught up. Tiera had a large afro popping out about a foot above her visor. Another health violation. She should have a net on her hair if it is not pulled back or covered by a hat. I saw neither of the two go to a hand washing sink before eventually going to help on the line. Another violation. I have nothing against these two employees. Tiera was really nice to me and i'll explain soon. But the manager should have done more managing although I appreciate she was actually helping. The other girl had to run an order out to someone parked and came back with two packs of chicken nuggets in her hand and put them BACK under the heaters. 3rd violation. Once food leaves the line and is bagged it does not go back on the line to be served to someone else. It is to be tossed into the trash. Once the 4th person that ordered after me got their food before me I approached the other girl working the line who took my order but was bagging the food at the time and asked why. She was rightfully exasperated, not at me, but at having skipped me. That's cool, relax, breath, I just want my food. She immediately got my order together and handed it to me. When I got to the car I noticed I had someone elses order along with part of my order, the two Whoppers from a 2'fer coupon. I asked to add cheese and no catchup. I got catchup but no cheese instead. I took them back in and told the girl and she had the guy with dreads make me two new burgers and properly tossed the two wrong burgers in the trash. While waiting Tiera asked if I would like a drink while waiting. She was really nice and apologetic. After receiving the two new burgers I went back to the truck, opened them up and both had no catchup, but only one had cheese. Not willing to go through this again we just sucked it up and went on about our day. I will still order from this establishment in the future. But they either need to get more people or they need to stop accepting Door Dash and other similar orders. It's too much for the sma“

“Carnicería y Taquería El Rey is hands down my favorite spot for authentic Mexican food in the area! The flavors are unbeatable, and you can tell everything is made with care and tradition. Their tacos are always fresh and delicious, and the seafood tostadas are next level – so flavorful and satisfying. And let’s talk about their micheladas – absolutely the best I’ve had! Perfectly balanced and so refreshing. Every time I come here, I leave happy and already planning my next visit. If you’re looking for amazing food and a great atmosphere, this is the place to go!“

“The service was amazing. I went through the drive-thru to order my food (last week on two separate occasions), and both trips were a very positive experience. My order is always a little complex because of my families special diets. However, they got the order right, and I didn't have to explain it over and over. They were fast and friendly. The area is a little sketchy, with lots of questionable characters hanging around outside the building. And even though they may be harmless, it's still uncomfortable. Because of this, I didn't give 5 stars.“

“Went thru the drive thru. AI cashier finally got our order right. It was just fries. The person cashier was still apprehensive when we approached and doubled checked our order. We don't blame her, that computer thing is still learning. Order was out quick.“

“I usually come to this Jersey Mike’s about once a week and have always had a good experience, but today was the first time things didn’t go well. I spoke with Tatiana on the phone, and she told me to come in and she’d give me two free subs since my order was messed up. When I got there, she said she only meant one, which was half of what I originally ordered.

I’ll still be back because I like Jersey Mike’s overall, but I’ll probably try to avoid coming during that shift.“

“I placed my order for pick up through the Togos website and that was the most frustrating part of my entire experience! I was trying to sign in to the website and it was not working so I was just going to go back and check out as a guest but that was not working. I had to reload the website and thankfully it still had my items in the cart.

As far as my interactions with the staff in the store — they’re 5 star All The Way! I walked to a smile and warm greeting and my food was ready when I arrived — it was even a couple of minutes before my time to pick up the order! The sandwich was made well and exactly how I ordered it!“
