14 Best Fast Food Restaurants in Poway

“Hands down, the best burgers. My go to is the Double- Double animal style (mustard grilled into the meat, grilled onion, extra sauce, extra pickles). You can get it on any of their burgers. To the Snyders (the owners of In-N-Out), PLEASE put stores in Florida!! We deserve this goodness too. 🥰“

“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.“

“The safest COVID-free take-out“

“This is the best JIB in San Diego County. Friendliest staff, always the freshest food, fast service makes this JIB my favorite. I've been visiting this JIB since about 1992. My Breakfast Jack was cooked perfectly. No hard eggs and no unchewable egg lace.“

“Good food, great environment…“

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

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

“I stopped by for a Western bacon burger. It was as good as usual. I have been going here for years, and they are always consistent quality. But it's time to upgrade the restroom.

Parking: They are now open on Sunday, according to the new banner.“

“Went to this location today with a friend and my baby. We had the most PLEASANT interaction and service from Will B! My Cali Club hit the spot and the baby enjoyed it as well.

Additional shout out to the other employee helping my friend but we didn’t catch his name.
Thanks again fellas!!“

“Quick enough, pretty clean inside. Pretty typical order from the kiosk type place like all fast food these days. It was a good pitstop. Clean bathroom. No real issues. Average food and some things inside like benches and the drink machine were neglected and could use better upkeep and repair.“

“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.“

“I love the workers and food here. Most of the time that I come here, I pick up or order the family meals. Once in a while, I order 1-person meals. The workers are always professional, even during peak hours. I always get the food warm and tasty.

I've always received my food at reasonable times. I would never mind waiting 25 minutes for a family meal or 15 minutes for a 1-person meal. I always expect that they're busy and that they can run into any unexpected problems. However, I've only had one serious issue in the past with an order that they were able to make, but didn't and prioritized in-person customers.

This was some time in 2021 or 2022. At around 1:50pm, I placed a 1-person order online before work (1 side, 2 entrees). I went to pick up the order around 2:05pm (15 minutes later). The order wasn't ready. I told the cashier about my pick-up order. The cashier mentioned that they were working on it. While waiting, I saw the workers taking new orders from several in-person customers. Some of those customers got their food immediately and the others got it about 5 to 12 minutes after they ordered. I ended up getting my food around 2:20pm, even though I had ordered my 1-person meal around 30 minutes before they did. This is the only serious issue I've had with this Panda Express. One of the workers apologized about the long wait time for a small order. Other than that, they've always been great with customer service, quality of food, and serving time.“

“I get a footlong subway here pretty much every day since Sept 2025. The staff here are always friendly and engaging and make the best subs. I have tried others in the area but this one is definitely the best. A big thanks to Nebras for always greeting me with a smile and knowing my order off by heart! The rest of the team are great too! Keep up the great work!“

“Came here before 11pm. Picked up my mobile order. Noticed that it was taking somewhat long for 2 large fries and two fillet-o-fish sandwiches… but it was worth the wait! I have not had fresh crispy McDonald’s fries in a very long time and the tartar sauce was placed perfectly in the center. I will visit again for the fresh fries!“
