15 Best Fast Food Restaurants in Poway

“Coming to this In-N-Out is always a pleasure—the staff are truly like gems, carefully chosen to deliver an exceptional experience. I set high standards for service, and it’s rare to find a place that consistently meets them, but I’ve been coming here for six years, and I can’t recall a single time I left unhappy.“

“The safest COVID-free take-out“

“Have been here in Poway 3 times . It’s been fast and reasonably priced. Burgers taste good and sides do as well. Happy and will be coming back again.“

“A variety of edible products, with convenient hours at some locations (not this one), second only to ininout with food consistency, they thankfully haven't future proofed against inflation nearly as far ahead as Carl's jr, where buying a "$6 burger" for $10+ actually accurately aligns their ad pictures with the actual products, relative value-wise.“

“Good food, great environment…“

“I love this place because when I go, it's never crowded and the service is superb. The employees aren't too busy with the electronic orders to greet you take time to explain what's what. It's always super clean has decent parking.“

“Jay was so nice and warm when I ordered my food today and he answered my questions clearly with a smile. Today is Sept 13, 2024 I went there around 6pm. The other staff with him needs to smile more like him. It brings joy to us customers but all in all they tried their best to be nice.
Just more smiles is my comment but they were all doing their best.
Kudos to Jay!!!“

“Great sandwiches and a fantastic crew - friendly, welcoming and full of energy!“

“The staff here are particularly friendly and attentive.

Wheelchair accessibility: There is a wheelchair accessible entrance in the rear of the dining room, accessed through the drive-thru. Though unlocked and usable initially, this door has been locked for the past 5+ years.“

“So, if you’re ever in Poway and craving some fast food with a Mexican twist, you’ve got to hit up Taco Bell on Poway Road. I've been there more times than I can count, and it's always a solid choice. They’ve got all the classics—tacos, burritos, and my personal favorite, the Crunchwrap Supreme.

One thing I really appreciate about this Taco Bell is how clean it is. The dining area is spotless, which isn't something you can say about every fast food joint. Even though it gets pretty crowded, especially around meal times, the service is super fast. The staff is really friendly and efficient, so you never have to wait long for your food.

The drive-thru is also a lifesaver if you’re in a hurry. The food is always hot and tasty, and the prices are great if you’re on a budget. All in all, Taco Bell in Poway is definitely worth a visit. It's my go-to spot when I'm in the mood for some quick, delicious food.“

“they are very courteous and the food is great. There is also a small play area for kids“

“Great place! Delicious food and drinks. (Especially the sprite) I would definitely recommend the burgers and McChicken. Get yourself a Happy Meal for your children. Also they have dessert items like ice cream, McFlurrys, and more. In the McCafe they have Sweet Tea, Coffee, hot chocolate, etc. Staff are nice and well trained. Around is a nearby hotel, and Jack n a Box.

Would recommend! :)“

“I'm not a fan of crispy chicken strips anywhere. There is always too much breading and the meat tends to be dried out. So when KFC advertised new, original flavor chicken tenders I rushed to go try them. (I am a big fan of their original flavor.)
They did not disappoint. The taste was true to their original chicken flavor and the strips were moist throughout. They were also real, long strips, not the "little" slider sandwich size.
If the quality of this item remains the same, they have a real winner here.
I am literally craving the taste and will plan a return trip very soon.
My rating in a word? Yummy!“

“Go Brittney, I love to see people doing their thing with or without a mask. Who’s to say anyone’s opinion or concerns are more or less valid than another’s. Also, thanks to Tatyiana for being attentive and patient with my precise order. ?? sorry about the spelling of those names?“

“I love the Panda Express at the Poway Rd location! No matter how crowded they are (peak dining times), their staff always has it together and serves customer orders fluidly and at a quick and efficient pace. Their cooks so a great job preparing every menu item and keeping the trays of food full. Excellent teamwork!“
