“I went through the drive through with a friend for a fried breakfast, expecting the mid-teir chicken and soggy fries like every other experience at a Raising Canes. But what I wasn't expecting was for the best chicken meal I have ever had in my life. The chicken was soft and juicy, with a crisp crunchy breading that just fell apart in your mouth. The main show is the fries tho, they are hot, as fresh as it can get, the hot fry was soft yet crisp. It was the world's most perfect French fry. The toast was soft and buttery, also very fresh. I will definitely be returning to California, not for the beaches or sunsets. Only for this particular Raising Canes location.“

“Kind staff, clean restaurant, great food, and family owned. Only tried two their fish tacos on their Wednesday special, and their birria consume, came out to $8 and some change. Both were full of flavor and filling for the price. 2026, fish taco Wednesday 1.99 each.“

“Got a large extra chili and extra cheese fries. Super delicious! If you don't ask for extra chili or cheese, you really don't get very much. My husband got a regular size and his looked pretty sad, very little cheese and chili. Associate helping us at drive thru provided great customer service. The drive thru line wasn't pack, so we got our food fast.“

“Chick fil a is usually good with quality food since the price point is really high. The deluxe sandwich came with a small sad hot tomato and wilted lettuce, the only thing that appeared to be of quality was the chicken. Not the best managed spot. Could be the staff not putting out their best or management not overseeing their product. It wasn't just either just the car in front of me in drive thru and one car pulling up as i was getting my food.“

“Sucks they don’t have any outside dining but I guess they don’t want any bums around“

“We "discovered " them after they moved to their new location. Honestly, we will never buy meat from the grocery store again. Absolutely phenomenal!“

“Miguel’s Jr in my home town is a winner! Beautiful new location; same great taste 😋! Miguelitos is a staple for Inland Empire and now SoCal residents who want a delicious meal without the long wait of a sit down restaurant. Plus the Red Sauce is boss! Cada dia! 🙌“

“The food turned out excellent, no problems with my order at all! But lets be real, I bought 2 meal combos (Bacon King and 2 cheeseburger) and made the fries and drinks large, 2 orders of 8 cheese tots, 6 tacos (3 x 2 for $1.99), and a kids meal. Total? Any guesses? First let me also say, the staff and service were fast, friendly, and efficient and I have zero complaint there! The atmosphere, well it was like 10pm and I went through the drive thru, but I did have to roll down the window to order, etc. and the fresh air was nice at that time, so no complaints there either. But I just dont get out enough anymore, because I did not expect to pay just north of $50 for Burger King. Have it my way? Okay how about next time make it affordable! I had to check if the kids meal crown was actually gold plated...it wasn't! I did enjoy the food, we all did, but for that price I'll go to Chili's next time!“

“Came here on Tuesday June 6th at 10PM. Whoever was working there tonight was friendly and polite. I ordered the cheesy gordita crunch and a hard taco and both were made beyond perfect. You guys were awesome tonight and the food was so well made. Thank you so much to the staff tonight.“

“Friendly staff that always gets our order right!“

“The food is always good at this location. You can ask for the chicken to be well done, juicy or in between. Personnel are always pleasant and friendly. The restaurant can get busy, specially at the drive thru at peek hours. Dine in is OK, place is clean but it's just a basic dinner. You eat and you leave, nothing different than other Pollo Loco restaurants. Don't forget to ask for your senior or military discount. Same for first responders. They don't mind you asking.“

“​If you’re looking for a fresh, healthy, and high-quality meal in Lake Elsinore, Freedom Bowls is the absolute spot.
​I’ve tried a lot of acai spots, but the quality here is on another level. The ingredients are incredibly fresh, and the presentation is always spot on. What really sets them apart—aside from the awesome patriotic theme—is their unique wide, shallow bowls. It sounds like a small detail, but it’s a total game-changer because you get the perfect ratio of toppings and base in every single bite.

​My Favorites:
​The Founders Bowl: A classic done right with granola, fresh fruit, and just the right amount of almond butter and honey.

​Thomas Jefferson: If you’re craving something a little sweeter, the Nutella on this one is perfect.

​Freedom Bites: These are the perfect snack to grab for later.

​The staff is genuinely friendly and welcoming. Whether you’re grabbing a post-workout meal or just want something refreshing that actually fills you up, you can't go wrong here.

​Highly recommend supporting this local gem!“

“Excellent service delicious food but the upper management does not staff enough people“

“Tonight’s visit was outstanding, drive tru cashier made our night by being friendly and helpful. We had a big order with lots of picky eaters. They listened to every detail did not miss a thing. All my meals were bagged as meals (saved me from guessing where each item is at) plus all my fries were hot. It’s very refreshing to see great service with people who care about customers.“

“Un lugar muy relajante y familiar“

“Drive thru cashier, I wish I would have got his name
EXCELLENT CUSTOMER SERVICE.
Patient, kind, it's been awhile since we have been to that Taco Bell we did not really understand the menu he took the time and explained items and boxes on the menu especially offered options or something similar to what we wanted“

“just had the best fish tacos, rice and beans, birria quesadilla, hot cheeto corn, and fries. DELICIOUS!! 5 stars from me. will be back soon!! 😋🙌🏼😃“

“I love this location. They’re always nice and greet me. Everywhere with a kiosk ignores you but they always ask if you need any assistance with it. I appreciate that they give you as many salsas as you want. I went to the menifee location and they charged me. Even the app shows $0. Foods always right and I’ll keep coming to this location.“

“I just came to visit mcdonald's to get myself breakfast right before work.When the other one down the street, it was still rebooting. The cashier told me happy thanksgiving with a great smile.My food is fresh.I'm gonna be coming to this mcdonald's.Instead now. Thank you“

“Awesome KFC Taco Bell in Lake Elsinore, California As a disabled veteran I have to say the staff were truly setting the bar for excellence with regard to customer service super friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful on both the KFC and the Taco Bell side as we ordered from both my daughter ordered the chicken nuggets on the KFC side ; and my wife and I ordered from the Taco Bell side. She got a chicken quesadilla with extra chicken a soft taco subbing for chicken and I got the three soft taco supreme as well as a Chalupa steak establishment overall was clean. The restrooms were clean. The service was extremely fast like very very fast. We had barely sat down from getting our drinks and they already had our order ready so five stars for fast.

My only critiques would be that the Chalupa shell was a little stale. They don’t offer a military discount and your purchases in store don’t count towards your point accumulation with the app on either the KFC or the Taco Bell side.“

“I went with my friend. She has a true gluten allergy. She ordered her sandwich and told them about her health issue. They took her health concern to ❤️ HEART. They cleaned the slicer, yhe prep area and more to ensure she was healthy. No attitude, no deep breath of aggravation like some places just genuine concern for her. Not to leave out of the conversation...the sandwich are great. Great quality for the price! Oh, did I mention..I live close so you are a great asset to my convenience. Thank you.“

“Love their Philly Cheese Steak! The bread was fresh and I love watching them grill the ingredients!“

“Thank you for the gracious thought of us over at Canyon Lake Middle School. The free pizza you sent to Precinct 12048 and 12055 at Canyon Lake Middle School was greatly appreciated!!! You Rock Papa John's ����“

“BEST SUBWAY LOCATION!! I used to go to the one on bundy canyon because it’s closer to me but now i will skip that one to come to the one by Carl’s jr. There’s not a day where the staff is not smiling. The service is always SO good, sometimes too good for a subway.. they always get my order correct and i have never had trouble with them which is why i come here. I know my sub will always be the typical yummy sub i always get. Tuna tuesdays are my fav since i love their tuna! veggies are always so fresh! I seen bad reviews of this place so I used to be skeptical but those people must’ve came on a bad day.. I come 3 days a week so i know what i’m talking about!😝 Keep up the great work! (herbs and cheese bread is where it’s at!)“
