“I frequent this location often and the service is always above other fast food spots while the food is on point 95% of the time. Ordered fried zucchini on my last visit and they were freshly fried, HOT and crispy; probably the best order of them I've ever had. I'll reserve reviewing the burger because I forgot to snap a pic of it. I noticed they went up in price when my usual order rang up higher than normal.“

“I’ve Never found a place better than Arsenio’s when it comes to their plates. I came for the carne asada burrito X2 + beans & rice and FREE SODA. I upgraded for the Jamaica. My burrito was delicious from the first bite to the very last. I also have 1 burrito left for tomorrow! I brought along a friend who enjoyed a grilled chicken Chimichanga. We’re both satisfied & full. Thank you Arsenio’s ♥️“

“They’re very professionals and the food is the best“

“I was there during a random power outtage a few weeks back and the whole staff was friendly and attentive while their machines were down. The young lady cashier was super kind and accommodated me with a gift card for the wait. Robert, one of the managers, went out of his way for a week to help me get my payments back.“

“I only went there for the Filet-O-Fish sandwich. It's been my favorite food there since about 1968. Really good team of girls there this afternoon. I had to wait about an additional 5 minutes but they were very accommodating so they offered me a free strawberry pie. I would have never ordered one of those, but I was pleasantly surprised. Very tasty!“

“I really like this place
I come thru the drive thru on Wednesdays after practice alot. And every single drive thru employee is incredible. We have not had a bad experience yet. The food is pretty good. The service however is incredible!“

“Good lunch deals, easy parking, next to a 7-11 gas station. Ricardo was friendly and prompt making sure ask the right questions, so my bowl would be made perfect. I love the Kbbq sweet rib here. The pieces are a good size and the cucumber kimchi is perfect balance of sweet and vinegary. One of the healthier options.“

“I love the fresh salsa at this location. Unfortunately I've never seen it and any others and I don't live close to this one. Please consider putting this in more Del Tacos“

“The best Mexican fast food in town Excellent customer services.“

“Clean store and tons of Asian products too“

“Best service Great place to eat clean place great food“

“Frequent customer to this location. Food is usually made fresh, sometimes nuggets can be hot but a little on the stale side. Burger customizations are usually correct although asking for extra ingredients sometimes is not followed and I have to go up to the counter and have them give me the extras I ordered. They are usually busy enough that fries are constantly being made so they are served fresh when you order.“

“This is my go-to fast food on super busy days. I like the 1/2 and 1/2 with white rice. I've also tried the veggie one and the white meat chicken one. They're all good. Service is friendly and fast and healthier than other fast food choices.

Kid-friendliness: They have child size meals

Parking: Parking is available in front of store

Wheelchair accessibility: They are accessible for wheelchairs, and although the door is heavy, they can accommodate“

“The staff at this Taco Bell are consistently kind and friendly, and it’s clear they enjoy their work and each other. I often stop here to charge my car sometimes without buying food, and they always greet me warmly while keeping the lobby clean. The space is spotless every time, and the music is a nice touch too. When I do get food it’s always 10/10!“

“Although pricing is out of control (primarily the responsibility of California's fast food minimum wage law and the massive inflation from 2020-2024) the food is still delicious and the service still the friendly attitude you've come to expect from Chick-fil-A. One noticable feature is the fact this restaurant is still hiring younger people, something many fast food cousins no longer do.“

“This is my new favorite place, I cant believe that I just found it recently! Dora, Ari and Liz are awesome with the A+ customer service, they are very knowledgeable about the foods and will suggest certain things.

Everything is fresh and tasty to the bite, the posrtions are also big enough to fill me up.

They have a point system that I suggest you take advantage of.“

“Nice job at showing compassion! This is how ALL business should operate. :)“

“The younger Hispanic girl is really on her stuff. I think she might be the manager if not she should be. I’m 37 I retired in 2025 and sometimes I worry about the younger generation but her work ethic gives me hope for the future generation.“

“This is our go to flame broiler. Pretty sure I just met the owner pulling a shift. I 100% respect that. Food is always consistent and good. I've never had a bad meal here. Who I'm pretty sure is the owner, was very kind and thoughtful. We will definitely be back next time we feel like some flame broiler.“

“Just want say the breakfast pocket with sausage is really good.“

“Hands down, one of the best fast food experiences I've had! 😃 The staff at Little Caesars were super friendly and got my order well done! I went for the Detroit-style slices and stix pizza 🍕 , and OH. MY. GOSH. The crust was crispy on the outside, well seasoned, and the cheese was perfectly melted. The stix were the perfect combo of crunchy and cheesy. Solid 10/10 would recommend! 😊“

“If you have a serious appetite, this is the spot. We shared the 5-scoop bowl and it was the perfect amount of food for two people. Aside from the massive portion size, the highlight was definitely the quality; the fish tasted incredibly fresh and delicious.“
