35 Best Fast Food Restaurants near Marina

“Attention Mod pizza lovers, this is the same concept where they build a pizza in front of you, but the crust is even better because it is structured and yummy. Immediately upon stepping in, we were greeted with multiple hellos and welcome in’s- that always makes an experience better from the start! After they had put my pizza in the oven, I realized I hadn’t added the crushed garlic and I briefly mentioned it to my boyfriend next to me. The employee heard me and immediately offered to add it and insisted on it which was so kind. As for the pizza, it was delicious- I had a vegetarian pizza, the roasted broccoli topping is the best. The bathrooms were impeccable which made for an overall great experience (p.s. to the girls: there is no mirror!). One of the best parts was the design of the place, as well as the atmosphere. The tall ceiling and windows made the space roomy and “fresh”. The chill indie beachy guitar music made us feel like we were relaxing by the beach as we watched the sun set through the large windows. As for the seating, there are many option. My favorite were the booth tables because there was a comfy back rest (pictured) and were clean. Shout out to the 7pm crew for being friendly, hardworking, and overall great workers!“

“I have to say this Jack In the Box has the best staff in all of Marina. I frequent all the restaurants regularly and I have to say Gloria...is the kindest, human, beautiful person I have come across in a very long time. I am now devoted to Jack... McDonald's in Marina used to have nice staff but Matthew left and the manager there has denied EBT usage by saying the machine doesnt work. She is rude and makes the staff uncomfortable...people need jobs and we should be happy to serve...Gloria is a shining example. Give her a show of appreciation!!!“

“It was better than the Salinas restaurant. They were also very friendly.“

“it's a nice place to eat💯“

“good food. good musi. Service was wonderful“

“Best hamburgers. Very fresh tasting.“

“Came to this location on a chilly Tuesday evening just to order something small. food was fresh and delicious. The worker Ashley was super nice and kind. She would check on us and make us feel welcomed. Her smile is beautiful and i hope to see her again! Thanks again Ashley!“

“This is a solid place to get a burrito for the road. The staff is friendly. The Super Burrito is always good. But the quesadilla is soggy and the cheese on the Carne Asada fries is weird. I do love that it has a drive thru, though; so it's my go-to in Seaside.“

“Just great 🍔 burgers! Service was excellent“

“Living overseas I've missed good Mexican food. I was very pleased with the Super Burrito that I ordered. Everything was pretty delicious, from the rice to the beans to the grilled chicken. The only thing that I wasn't too crazy about was the salsa that was included inside, it didn't really have a taste to me. Plus, the whole burrito became a little too wet and mushy. I appreciated the fork, but I don't want to eat a burrito with a fork--it's like eating sushi with a spoon.

Service was wonderful. The guys working there are really nice, patient, and helpful. If I visit CA again, and find myself in Monterey, I'll definitely pay a visit.“

“This has been our Taco Tuesday stop for months now. Their carnitas street tacos are wonderful. Better than beef, and you rarely hear me say that. Five tacos, a 4 oz. side of guacamole and one Mexican beer for under $20, perfect! You place your order at the counter and they call your number. Plenty of indoor seating, none outdoors.“

“Hey - I don't expect much when I stop at fast food places just off the freeway. Guy behind counter was attentive, fast and courteous. I didn't like that they had to manually open bathroom instead of giving me the code. Small item, minor since tables where clean and food was hot.“

“This one always pays attention to product quality and presentation ❤️“

“I have pretzels at multiple different places and I have a few favorites so I thought I’d try Wetzel’s. The plain salted pretzels are soft with a nice outside texture and buttery. One of the best pretzels I’ve had. (I used to lot be a pretzel person but my wife got me hooked about a year ago.)“

“I love salad vegetables, drink chicken sandwich , fries,“

“How did someone invent the pepperoni pretzel? Well it’s here with other pretzel creations both large and small. This venue,
shares a space with a cookie, coffee and ice cream shop. Yummy combo
Aceesible restrooms in central Cannery Row area and van accessible paid parking in garage“

“best old fashioned greasy burger around 😋 patio burger is the best“

“Someone learned how to cook Sushi 🍣 Rice! Decided to give Poke House another chance for redemption, and they came through! Ono!! Shoots!!!“

“Okay I actually don't leave reviews for fast food restaurants, but I couldn't help it for this one time. Whoever is in the kickten right now at 12:45pm is a complete master at cooking. I have gone to many different pollo locos and ask for the same burrito, and never have I had one like this. Seriously, I can't even put it to words.

The Chipotle chicken avocado burrito felt like it was made by a holy entity. The only regret I have is that I didn't take a picture of it. If I had a chance, I would gladly shake everyone's hand in the kitchen and thank them for their excellent work.

De veras que rico estaba ese burrito wow. Pero si los con estan en la cocina esta fijándose mucho en el cualidad de la comida que sale a los clientes. Lo agradezco mucho.“

“To the last two employees tonight, April 11th, Thank you for making our samdwiches even after you had been closed for 11 minutes and things were being cleaned. I didnt get your names but you two are exceptional employees and hope the management recognizes you! ps the samdwiches were also made perfect!! Great Job Togo's!“

“Picked up a Taco Bell Taco Party Pack for a chill night with the fam, and it hit the spot! Everyone got their favorites—crunchy and soft tacos, loaded with seasoned beef, cheese, and lettuce. It was hot, fresh, and ready fast. Perfect for a quick, affordable family meal where no one had to cook or clean. We added some sauces, laughs, and good convo—exactly what we needed. Will definitely grab another pack next time!“

“An employee working there has 17 years in that location.. everything he makes is made with gratitude and appreciation with love from within.

Vegetarian options: All veggie subs available

Dietary restrictions: Dietary restrictions are accommodated if applicable

Parking: Park in front or around the corner. No parking problems

Kid-friendliness: As far as I know. Children are welcome!“

“Excellent food and experience. We worked with Viviana to cater a 50+ person party, and she exceeded our expectations! Not only was the food delicious and a hit at the party, but Viviana took the time to let us sample each option, delivered the food to our location, helped us set up the food, and was great at communicating. We will definitely get catering from Demetra again! If you haven’t had their food, check them out!“

“My wife and I will be paying a visit to the Presidio in a few weeks. We have many fond memories there from 1986/1987 when I was a Polish student and she was a Czech student, both of us U.S. Army. We met there and were married in Pacific Grove on our lunch hour. In our minds it's a magical place (and a superb language school) that expanded our horizons. We're returning to the U.S. after many years overseas.“

“Wendys - if yall like the food the Seaside one is an excellent Wendys. Chili is spicy/sweet, Baconators are big and not flat, the fries with skin on and good and well salted. We were not disappointed, our favorite Wendys foods are prepared with care, here. Good job.“

“Blanca took my order in drive through .
She was very attentive, polite, my food was very much fresh 😋 and delicious as always 😋 .
Sometimes I walked to the park and after that, I stopped by This 🍗 KFC, because this is my favorite location 😋 😍
My baby and I really enjoyed this chicken 🐔 😋“

“I dont often get out to Salinas but when I do, I try to visit Sonic. I have always loved their tater tots but today I wanted to try their fries for the first time ever. I chickened out at the last moment and ordered the tots again. I mentioned this at the pickup window this and asked if she could maybe throw just two french fries in bag for me to try. She said she would have to ask. She came back with my food smiling and said they were able to put a whole small fries in the bag. This really made my day, whole week actually. Thank you Lizbeth!

I will have to make time to come to Salinas more often and support this location. The fries were amazing by the way. Probably my favorite of all the fast food fries I have ever tried.“

“They're always wonderful, kind, quick, and so friendly. I've always loved subway, and I've been to many, all over the continent and a few overseas... this is by far my favorite.

there is a shorter, a little older, extremely kind, woman who works there and has for many years. She was there back when I was living out of the area and my visits home she would let me practice my (awful) Spanish to order my sandwich so I wouldn't forget (since I lived where there were virtually ZERO Spanish as a first language speaking people 🤦🏼‍♂️). Now that I'm home, and i order it through the app mostly, she always makes me feel confident in knowing my sandwich is going to be exactly what I ordered and never misses a chance to say "hola" as I pick up and go. She not only deserves to be recognized as an amazing employee - she deserves a raise. I would go out of the way to get a sandwich from her, as opposed to any other subway or sandwich shop. Honestly.“

“At least the place I went to the previous afternoon seemed to be understaffed because they took too long between ordering, cooking and delivering my hamburger. Despite this, the employees are few and they know that in reality my father asked me that Vienna would honor our new“

This quaint and cozy eatery, perched right on the ocean's edge, offers an unexpectedly delightful culinary experience.The menu, though simple, showcases the art of grilling in its purest form. During my visit, I sampled one of their mouth-watering burgers, a choice that I now recall with great fondness. The patty was expertly grilled to just the right temperature, achieving a balance of a juicy interior and a beautifully charred exterior. It was a symphony of flavors that reminded me of the intrinsic beauty of simple, unpretentious food.The Grill on Lover's Point doesn't rely on fancy décor or elaborate presentations; instead, it thrives on the natural beauty of its surroundings. The rhythmic cadence of the crashing waves and the enticing aroma of the grill form the perfect backdrop for an unforgettable seaside dining experience.In essence, The Grill on Lover's Point serves as a testament to the beauty of simplicity. It's a place where the love for grilling and the passion for quality shine through in every dish. I wholeheartedly recommend their grilled burger, a dish that manages to rise above the ordinary and delight the senses in every way.In conclusion, The Grill on Lover's Point isn't merely a spot to grab a quick bite; it's a destination, an experience, and a tribute to the joy of seaside grilling. Do yourself a favor and don't miss out on this unique place when in Monterey.“

“I was driving through Salinas and I was a bit peckish. Wanting to grab a quick bite without breaking the bank, I saw this Subway. So off I go. The place was clean, staff provided good customer service, and the sandwich was delicious. It's comforting to know that I can go any Subways and get the same quality sandwich and reasonable prices. And this location did just that.

I sat inside to eat, it was clean and comfortable. The AC was cranking. There were a steady stream of customers eating in, the staff kept the dining room clean. The shop is located in a shopping plaza with plenty of parking. They are located on the corner of South Main Street (Route 68) and Nissen Road. The only glitch, in my visit, was that the restroom was out of order but there was a plumber there working on the issue.“
