“Edit to add:
I appreciate the owners fast response, going over my receipt with me and refunding me for the over charge on 1 drink - Thank you

I really want to love this place, as it's a local mom n pop shop and convenient for sandwiches, however, this is the second time in the last 3 months we have been overcharged.

Today I ordered a "lite lunch" 3" Tuna which includes a drink. I also ordered a 6" Ham and cheese combo- I ordered an extra bag of chips to complete both meals and was charged for 2 drinks + a medium combo. In short, I was charged for an extra drink at 2.90

The last time we came, we ordered 1 Meatball, 2 ham n cheeses, and made 2 a combo. All sandwiches were 6", however we were charged 2 combos and 2 drinks.

Either combo only means chips, which is 4.85 for a bag, or we are getting double charged for drinks.“

“Have always had a great experience at The Money Pit; except for today (10/28/24). My wife and I stopped for lunch and ordered 2 hamburgers, 1 fry, and 2 drinks. At the time of ordering your employee gave me a to-go carrier for the two drinks, and I told her that we were eating at the Money Pit. She gave me two cups for the drinks. I paid the bill of $20.04 with cash, and she gave me my change. She seemed very put out that I was not taking the drinks and food out. Anyway, when they brought the meal, there were 3 hamburgers, not 2. I said I ordered 2 and she basically told me I was lying and walked away. If you get a server about 30-35 years old, 5'4" tall, with glasses at the Money Pit expect to be treated in a rude matter. Never happened to me in the past (over 10 years of eating there), and I hope you don't have to deal with this employee.“

“Just wanted to give Jacob a shout out! We showed up around 9pm and it was pretty busy, per usual. We found a table and Jacob went above and beyond. Aside from being very nice, he cleaned our tables without asking and he helped me again by taking our trays when we finished. I was not expecting that but he was just a very kind person and a pleasure to meet. Definitely will be coming back!“

“I got Jr Whopper set with nuggets and fries. Food is as Burger King gets, though I'm surrpised at how hot and crispy the fries are even though it was seasoned a little too much for my taste. The buns were dry as expected but the veg in the burger felt fresh.

The atmosphere is pretty nice, with comfortable seating, decently clean, and lots of windows to bring in sunlight.

What I want to highlight is the staff! The staff is very kind and ready to help. I wasn't sure if they had nuggets in the morning so I asked and they were kind and patient in answering my questions, suggesting the menu, and waiting for me to decide. I hope this place gets better reviews and more people :)“

“Been a year since last visiting Five Guys Burger. Always willing to support our local eateries. Staff friendly, food is good but a bacon burger was a bit small for a $13.00 burger. Regular order of fries was almost $8… what?? With drink, total was a whopping $25.
I’ll be returning but for $25 burger meal, it will likely be less often.“

“I order these all the way from NC.

No tortillas on the east coast come close to the authentic taste and texture of a Cali Burrito type of tortillas.

I order the big 14” ones monthly to get that little taste of SoCal out here in on the east coast.

Amazing!“

“OMG! Del Taco you are so nice. I ran out to get a very late dinner of tacos � and a chicken burrito � to save for lunch tomorrow. I had my hands full of stuff I was putting in my trunk so I wouldn’t forget it in the morning and what did I do? I go through the drive thru and get to the window. I reach over to grab my wallet out of my purse and there’s no purse � . When the nice man came to the window, I apologized and told him I forgot my purse. He told me they were closing early to have some work done, and gave me the tacos. ���. You can be sure I’ll bring by the � in the next few days. I really appreciate not having to run all the way back home and then turn around and run all the way back to get some dinner. Thank you Del Taco and the nice man in the window.“

“So I came in on August 3 to get my normal breakfast like I do every morning and like an idiot I left $600 on the counter and couldn’t remember where I put it,
Long story short I called in at approximately 8 PM and I asked the management and the employees if they happen to run across an envelope with $600 in it and think not only God that it was still there on the counter when the employee found it. They almost literally threw it in the trash And Mary one of the managers was such a sweetheart. She knew something about that envelope didn’t seem right so she opened it and saw $600 in there and held it to figure out maybe who it would belong to when I called. They literally knew exactly who I was and who would belong to so thank you so much for everybody’s honesty and being the greater part of this community we need more people like Mary and more people like the people that work here at this McDonald’s because honesty goes a long way and good karma goes a long way and not only that but they are always so gracious to me and my husband every morning when I come in for breakfast so thank you!!!!“
