in San Bernadino, Ca.“

“Wow!!! Nicole was amazing. Once I entered the store she greeted me with a smile and was very welcoming. The food was amazing!! I would definitely recommend to come eat hear and enjoy an amazing eating environment. The restaurant was super clean.“

“It’s in-out what more is there to say!“

“Prices have gone through the roof maybe that's why it's a pointed " A frame" roof ? . Lol. But the reason for 4 stars is the drive through took for ever. Not sure if they were understaffed or if the 3 people ahead of me were ordering half the menu ? ? . But as always the young lady in the drive thru window was very pleasant ? ? and spoke clearly and with a smile ? ?. Food was great yummy ? for the food and the kind service was a 5 star ? ? ? ? ? experience. Just drive thru can only except 4 normal size cars before the 5th car is either hanging half way in the street or stoped in the street so it's a bit unsafe because it's on a main street "Waterman" at that point just park in small parking area or on street and walk up.“

“First time trying Jacks as I’m not really from this area and my bf recommended it.. kinda felt a little rushed at the drive thru, but other than that it was okay. The food isn’t really all that exciting as people make it out to be be.. it was pretty decent tho.“

“It was a amazing time we'll spent with my girl who I love with all my heart“

“The prices have gotten ridiculous.Gotta say the staff was great! Fast, friendly, and professional! I was impressed by them, but so freaking not impressed that a freaking corndog lunch cost me over $10. One corndog, a soda, and the smallest side of fries “

“I was so hungry and that chicken tostada hit the spot! I'll definitely be back.“

“Finally, another good Carl’s Jr. location, this location by far is the best location I’ve been to in years they cook the patties fresh. They put large onion rings on the western burger as well as enough barbecue sauce to make it taste the way it should.. the buns are perfectly fluffed and enriched to taste . The strips of bacon are fresh , the burger was neatly put together. This is the Western burger that people desire when we come to Carl’s Jr. and pay premium for a burger. We expect premium thank you.“

“This mc donalds has got to have the stupidest employees on the planet. I dont know if they are messing with me but I just now went and I SPECIFICALLY told the cashier guy and the guy at the window how they frequently give me unsweetened team it happens so much it has to be on purpose because all these different people surely can't be so incompetent as to keep messing up a single drink order. I wish somewhere else had a large drink for $1“

The food was as expected it is fast food. But the staff are friendly and most of all the order was correct .

Can't complain.

We are now 40 years old and stop here when we are in the area since we live in another city. The food is always good, friendly service and still tastes as good is it did when we were kids!“
