Kenny was the manager working during our visit to the Monterey location, and she is fabulous! I felt like I was at a sit down restaurant with five star service. Not use to receiving service like that in a fast food restaurant. I appreciate her and your organization is very fortunate to have her!

The young man, Juan, working behind the counter today was FANTASTIC! He was super polite, thorough and was hustling to handle, by himself, all the customers in the restaurant. VERY impressed with him. This restaurant is fortunate to employ him!

Love this location! They’re always very polite and still timely with my overly specific order, and anytime there’s been a small mixup or misunderstanding this location has been quick to resolve it. They’re on their A game even when it’s super busy
