Unacceptable Service Overshadows Fresh Food at Carls Junior

I rarely leave negative reviews, but my latest experience at carls Junior was too appalling to ignore. Normally, I visit after work around 1 or 2 AM because the food is fresh, hot, and well-prepared. However, the service on my most recent visit was downright dreadful.

First off, the cashier at the drive through goes by the name MARCO… (or at least that’s what the receipt Says) exuded nothing but a nasty attitude. There’s no hint of a smile or a greeting; she simply takes your card and almost flings your bag of food at you. It’s incredibly off-putting when you’re trying to enjoy your meal, and it completely ruins the experience.

To add insult to injury, my order was wrong. I received burgers loaded with tomatoes and onions, despite having specifically requested them without. Understanding that mistakes happen, I tried to address the issue through the drive-through. Another young lady came to the window, and I explained the mistake. Instead of empathizing or offering an apology, she inspected the burger as if I was lying about the extra toppings, then carelessly returned the bag and walked off without so much as a “sorry” or an offer to fix it.

Frustrated, I honked my horn to get someone’s attention and insisted on a refund. Marco eventually appeared, and without any explanation or courtesy, she slammed the window in my face while processing the refund. The entire interaction was disrespectful and unprofessional—completely unacceptable for any customer service setting.

While I once overlooked these shortcomings because the food was consistently good, the repeated poor service has finally pushed me over the edge. I will never be returning to this Carls Junior again. If you value basic customer courtesy and respectful service, I suggest you steer clear of this establishment.

And for the owners or store manager, I suggest you send a shop to this location when she’s here so you can see firsthand that’s this is not a fit for your business if you intend to keep customers.

Vegetarian options: There Is a zucchini burger or you can get just the famous star with cheese and no patty.

Kid-friendliness: There is a nice playground for the kids and sometimes the cashiers are so nice that they would bring it out to you.

I ordered a big carl with no cheese and they got my order wrong by adding cheese, then when I told them that they put cheese and got the order wrong they ignored me.

It's been awhile that I come back to eat at Carl's Jr. The dining area is nice. Service is friendly and speak bilingual, English and Spanish. I am a bit disappointed with the biscuits that I ordered, it so salty and the bacons are so soft, it supposed to be crunchy.
Overall, I like this restaurant. I'd give it another try for theirs hamburgers some time in the near future.

Went through drive thru and cashier Marco had an attitude. He talked down to me, stating that next time, I had to let him know when I was using a coupon. I ordered 1 wrong thing and seemed annoyed having to fix 1 burger on my order of $50+.
