The manager is doing an exceptional job, as evidenced by the consistently clean environment. Additionally, the food is not greasy, which is a great improvement. Observing the environment, it’s evident that the team is a cohesive and collaborative group.
Respect to the manager big up!

Unless you ask for ketchup, you will not be receiving it. Perhaps it is foolish of me to assume I would get ketchup when I order fries, but if you don't ask they won't put it in the bag.

I could handle just this annoyance - but they also frequently get your order wrong. Items will be missing or simply incorrect. I am writing this, looking at the mac and cheese I was given as a side instead of the fries I verbally asked for.

Thankfully there are multiple fast food places on the same street, so my ability to get a convenient meal on my way home won't be interrupted now that I'm done spending money here.

Ordered late around 1am for pick up. Got there and spent 20 minutes at the drive thru ibtercom tryibg to get soneone to respond. Finally drove round to the pick up window to be seen amd ignored. Eventually name taken food handed. Upon return to my hotel i realize i was given 6 nugget size ‘strips’ that are dry as jerky. This is a horrible location. Go anywhere else

I placed an app order at 8:30pm on 11/3/2025. When I arrived, I was told it was still being prepared. No problem, I placed the order after I parked. I used the restroom, it was clean enough. I took a seat and wait, table was clean. I was expected to be called, instead, the girl with the glasses brought the order to me. I was very surprised, because only Chick-fil-A does that. 2 thumbs up!!! Only slight complaint was the fry, the oil could be more fresh.

I had a slight problem when I went through the drive through my food was cold. So, I went in and I had the BEST greeting from this young lady named kourtne. She handled my issue quickly and her customer service was phenomenal!!! She is a Great asset to this company!

This place sucks you place a order and they give you what you want not what you order I order spicy and this is what I get for not checking it and it all the time I go

One out of many complaint. I have been here before last time I was there I waited long for my order. This time I went I ordered my food and waited, someone received their order before me and he arrived after me so I complained the lady upfront said someone walked away with it (obviously was a lie) then proceeded to say she forgot and I said how when I’m sitting in the dining room area. Proceeded to say that she was busy, as if nobody goes to work or isn’t busy but whatever. Mind you I was up there and both times she pulled out her phone. She is very rude and needs to be fired or something. Her own coworker ratted her out that she’s always on her phone. Lastly the sprite tasted like seltzer water, gross and it’s freezing in there. That is all

I stopped here and made a quick pit stop at the drive thru for a spicy chicken sandwich. My sandwich was good and the staff was cordial.
I was in and out quickly as planned. This location is not far from the highway, which is convenient.
Overall, I am happy with my decision to stop here…

Ordered twice recently, the food is not bad but not great either. Forgot our sauces both times. The Last Dab ranch and our Blackened Ranch were missing. Received an order of the crispers that we didn’t even order. Disappointed and never ordering at this location again.

The location I visited was… a problem of aesthetic. The lighting was a harsh, fluorescent glare, the kind that exposes every minor flaw in the laminate tables and the… faint, greasy film on the menu board. A woman was… weeping near the soda machine. The floor tiles were a chaotic, nonsensical pattern, designed to hide spills, which only draws more attention to them. It’s a study in managed decline.

I ordered the Classic Chicken Sandwich. With a Diet Coke.

The transaction was… inefficient. The cashier’s eyes were vacant. There was a lack of… conviction. A lack of pride. But. This is where the analysis becomes… interesting.

The sandwich. It arrived in a coated paper sleeve, already developing a… translucent grease-spot. A vulgar, honest presentation. The breading. It’s not smooth. It’s aggressively textured. A chaotic topography of peaks and crunch. It’s not designed to be pleasing to the eye. It’s designed to lacerate. To assert dominance over the palate. The first bite is… an event. A shattering of structure. A violent, audible crunch that is… perversely satisfying.

The chicken inside. It is… moist. Almost unseemly so. The brine is potent, saline, with a chemical aftertaste that suggests a precise, industrial marination process. It is not… artisanal. It is engineered. The mayonnaise-based sauce is a bland, cooling agent against the heat of the pickles and the… frankly… aggressive seasoning.

It is not a polite sandwich. It doesn’t care if you like it. It exists on its own terms. It is a brutal, functional object. A masterclass in contrast: the utter collapse of the environment, the… human failure at the counter… and then this… perfectly executed core product. The chicken sandwich is a diamond, compressed under immense pressure and served in a bed of filthy straw.

I ate it in my car. I used the provided napkins, which were woefully inadequate. My fingers were greasy. I felt… debased. But I finished it. The system, for all its visible failures, produced a result of shocking, brutal efficacy.

Four stars. It is better than you are. It doesn’t have to be nice to you.

Now, if you'll excuse me. I have to… return some videotapes.
