“Took my sons from NJ to Kelly's for lunch. They wanted to go to another fast food place, I convinced them to try Kelly's. I had roast beef and my sons had Lobster Rolls. They claimed the lobster was the best thing they ever ate. Shout out to Tacoma, the lovely Kelly's ambassador who took care of us.“

“I had a great experience on 41 recently. The 2 older gentlemen at the register were helpful AND funny as hell. The lady server delivered the sandwich/salad tray quickly to my dine-in table.

I forgot a work notebook at my table and left CFA. When I returned to CFA, my work notebook on top of the clean table.

Kudos!“

“Naomi was awesome! We were missing an item from our order and she quickly expedited getting our missing nuggets! Thanks!“

“Renee is such an asset to DQ! She is so friendly and fun! She was so patient helping me use the app for the first time! Great food and service!“

“We love that we finally tried the food. The burgers are put together well, like the person making it would be eating it. The fries are made from fresh potatoes, so just like homemade. They have a sign stating what farm the potatoes are from that they are using that day. They also have self-serve, roasted, in the shell peanuts to eat while you wait for your food to be cooked.

Vegetarian options: There is a vege burger listed on the menu.

Parking: The restaurant is at the end of a strip building so there's a big parking lot.

Wheelchair accessibility: There's plenty of room at different tables to pull a wheelchair up to.“

“thanks for being open 5 guys, great work“

“Renee was the best!!! She hav end extra ice, broke a large bill for me so I had change and was so sweet.“

“great nachos but if you customize them like no onions check before you leave. so far my last 3 visits 2 of them I still got onions! and maybe extra!“

“Tostadas, elote, and the tacos…all of them are beyond delicious. The best taco stand in a long time!“

“Delicious, love the sweetness and little bit of salt, the sauce is amazing!!! Nice portions for lunch or cut in half for appetizers. 🤤 😋“

“We just recently left Arby’s from the drive-thru. I have to say we had a very pleasant experience, the wait time was practically nonexistent! The lady that helped us was excellent! Her name is Cierra and she was just wonderful! I can tell she enjoys her job and is a very vibrant woman. Mcdonald’s, Burger King, and so many other places should take a lesson or two from her!“

“We love coming to MOD Pizza on SR 64! The pizza is always excellent, perfectly cooked, and just the way we like it every single time. 🍕 Betsy went above and beyond with her customer service — she was so kind, attentive, and made our experience even better. We’ve been here a few times already and decided this will definitely be a Friday night staple for our family. Highly recommend MOD Pizza for anyone looking for great food and great service!“

“I chose Arby's, to try their fish that I've heard so much about. Not only was the order prepared exactly as I requested, it was the excellent attitude and service by Hayden and Jayden, so impressed with the experience I had to call back to confirm their names. !“

“Check your sandwich if not eating in. My sandwich was a mess, didn’t want mayo but got mayo. Had no cranberry but was supposed to have. My boyfriend liked his though. Staff not very friendly, and not enough of them, just like everywhere 🤷🏻‍♀️“

“i came in around 6pm today and Richard put me on to an AMAZING sub it was my first time EVER coming here i told him i want a fan favorite, something spicy and hot too and he recommended me the Hot Cajun sub and i put provolone cheese on it and everything that came with it and to whomever made my sandwich that day may you get a raise of some sort and a kiss on the forehead thanks to richard and the team🙏🏽“

“The place is clean and orderly. The management seems to really care for his employees and it shows when the handle the customer. The food is not regular fast food, rather it is cooked to order so it comes to the table hot and tasty. I highly recommend their burgers and their fish platters.“

“This is a basic hispanic food truck in the parking lot of a gas station... With that being said, the empanadas are as tasty as any I've ever had, anywhere!I give the service and atmosphere a three (at best) depending upon which vagrant is on the corner begging you for money and which employee is working. Do not expect the employees to answer the phone. I've called numerous times and watched them ignore the ringing phone.I give great praise to the quality of the Molida (Ground Beef) and Queso (Cheese) Empanadas for the fabulous price of only $5.00 each. Please consider trying them when you are in the area of 57th Avenue West & 14th Street West.:-)“

“LOVE WAWA! Pleas open one in Vegas!“

“Blizzards were 🔥 well worth the price. Everyone loved!“

“After a disappointing experience at R. J. Gators, we came to this checkers location. We were greeted with a smile and our food came out just as fast as we put our order in, with cars at both drive thru lanes. The rest of our night was saved, food was good, fries amazing as always. 10/10“

“Fresh baked bread and freshly prepared subs make this the only place I’ll go for my Dubs. Get them for taking to the beach or even smuggle Them into a movie theater! Haha - yes I have done that!!“

“I had lunch here on 12/12/24. This was literally the BEST food I have ever eaten from any Taco Bell ever in my 37 years of life. It was literally the freshest food ever. The taco shell was super crispy and everything was piping hot! And my quesadilla was freaking delicious and SO cheesy. The team was very friendly and got the entire order correct!! I definitely recommend you to eat at this location!! 💯“

“What's not to like? The burgers are delicious and the meal deals are reasonably priced. Service is pretty fast and the employees are friendly. The star here are the beef tallow fries. They nice and thin and very crispy. And don't forget the milkshakes, yummy. I got the Nutella one and it was impressive.“

“Great food. Fast service.“

“I was going to Taco Bell for a snack and realized after about 5 minutes of staring at the crew and trying to place my order in an otherwise empty dining room that I needed to leave as fast as possible.

I'm surprised that the restaurant is still standing and not engulfed in flames. Keep these people away from your food!

I'm glad that I came over to Chic-Fil-A.

The restaurant was very clean. The spicy chicken sandwich was delicious. The staff gave me hope in humanity once again. Amanda was the cashier and was right on top of things.

The staff didn't have pants hanging below their butts. What a wonderful experience!

I only wish there were more locations in Sarasota.

A+“

“Best taco bell in the area. They have never messed my order up in YEARS, and the ppl are chill there. JT is a good manager that makes sure his store is always clean, and running efficiently, good guy. There's a cpl other employee's that always seem to be in a good mood, joking around and making sure everything gets done too. Always a good experience“

“good customer service and clean restaurant.“

“Burger and Ice Cream was excellent“

“Sit-in service was excellent. People were friendly and dining area was very clean. First time at Culver’s and we were pleasantly surprised since fast food is not our preference—cheeseburgers were tasty but lacking a bit in pickle coverage according to my wife :-), fries were hot and salted to perfection (loved em), and we closed out our visit with two flavored sundaes…I had vanilla frozen custard with salted caramel and crushed snickers and I almost died from the “yumminess” …yep, we will be back. //john“

“Clean! Friendly Staff! 10/10 would recommend“

“McDonald’s on Cortez closed the last 2 days The one on 41 could not accept any cards not even a McDonald’s gift card So drove across town Manatee she was very sweet and helpful“

“😡 Came in with the wrong order… left with a smile! 😁 Huge shoutout to manager Amalia who fixed everything in minutes AND hooked us up with Frosties for next time 🍦🙌 Now THAT’S how you keep customers coming back! #CustomerServiceWin #ThanksMalia #FrostyLove

Moro to the story: Order was wrong and I was pretty upset, but manager Amalia turned it all around! She fixed everything quickly, was so kind, and even gave us Frosties for next time. Excellent customer service—management here is top-notch! 🥇🏆⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Omg. I ordered a Fish Sandwich Meal at the Cortez location 3631 Cortez Rd W Bradenton, FL 34210-3106 ticket #1305 at 8:01 pm and this is what it looked like. The fish sandwich was cold. I called and spoke with the manager named Angel and she said that in the evening they only cook the Fish sandwich in the microwave and use only a half a cheese. I'm really disgusted. I threw everything back into the bag. Just nasty. And I will be posting this on their Google Reviews also.“

“From the northeast (Philly, NJ), so we grew up eating Jersey Mike’s. They make the best subs of all. Bread is authentic and freshly sliced deli is great. Could remove a star because the price has gotten pretty high. But the sandwiches are so good that I cannot.“

“I’ve been in a few times recently and each time Lo, (I think is her name), is always holding the place down by herself. And each time she has been nothing but kind and respectful, making sure everything is stocked and cleaned, and holding conversation. I hope this Subway is taking very good care of her!“

“Great store! Owner of the store is always nice and friendly. I live closer to other Subways, but drive an extra 10-15 to visit this location since they never mess up my online order, and everything is really good/fresh. Store is always clean too.“

“Very family friendly, calm and relaxing“

“very nice people and sea food was great, the lady at the window was so sweet“

“just stopped in, whole place getting slammed and I just wanna give a shout out to the staff who took care of me today. they kept their calm and were super friendly despite the fact they were getting absolutely crushed with customers and to go's. food was great. thankyou“

“Today was a special day for me because the girl working alone today knew how to make my favorite sub! Even though they no longer have the pickleball on the menu, she remembered it. She was very kind and efficient. The store was clean and she even reminded me to use my number to get my points. Don't let go of her. She is an asset to your shop! Way to go Lacey!!!“

““Papa John’s always delivers on flavor with their fresh, delicious pizzas. The crust is perfect, and the toppings are high quality, making it a favorite for pizza night.

However, I had a bit of an issue with my recent pickup order—it was delayed, which was a little frustrating. That said, the staff was polite and ensured the pizza was hot and fresh when I got it.

Overall, great pizza, but I hope they can improve the timing for pickup orders!”“
