“I had an afternoon meal on my trek along I-75. I had my usual chicken and dumplings with green beans, mashed potatoes, fried apples and biscuits. It was delicious, hot and fast. The waitresses worked together and kept food and drinks moving. The management team was meeting at the big table beside me. It was exciting to hear them planning positive customer experiences for the coming holidays. The company has made notable improvements with a return to high food quality and large portions. Many thanks from a life long fan“

“I went to Culver's the other day. My boyfriend had never been. I purchased the Cod dinner and he stuck with his usual burger. He said it was delicious. The portion I received was just right and it was delicious as well. All of the staff were working hard; However, they were all smiling. You can't help but see how well stocked the condiment station is. The drink station has a lot of selections and is also clean. Workers were busy taking plates of food out to customers, as well as cleaning as they went. You can tell everyone took pride in their work and their store. My boyfriend had never been to Culver's before. He loved his burger. I gave him some of my cod and coleslaw. Which he loved. Well, about a week later, he insisted on going back. Guess what he got.....Cod dinner. One caution is....Save Room for Desert!!!“

They made it fresh for us & it was fabulous. Better than Dunkin or Starbucks! WOW. And your employees are super nice.“

“After a few years away I came back to find this hooters still open when so many good ones have closed down, so happy, been in 6 times in 10 days, food was great as always here, atmosphere is SW Florida red neck, all good, I was served by mostly the same staff, Nicole, Sammy, and Ashley, today Sunday 5th July. Last lunch for a few months before I travel again, kinda spoiled with the server, Gilmaris, no horrible but inattentive, did not introduce herself, just jumped in my face, slow, did not listen. Worse I’ve had here in 4 years. Shame“

“My mom & I stopped in on the day before Easter because we received a $100 gift card, so we got a ham. We were gonna get some other items but the ham used up the whole gift card! Dont get me wrong, the ham was pretty good but if it weren't for the gift card; I would never have paid $100 for a 9lb ham. The store also offers different lunch plates(ham sliders, turkey clubs) or meals & family dinners(turkey pot pie, pot roast, meatloaf, etc) to go on regular days but they weren't available the day before Easter when we were there. However, there were some side dishes & some desserts that were available that same day if you needed them. I will come back to try a lunch special or a family dinner to go one day, now that I know they offer them. The employees gave fine service. You could tell that they were at the end of working some seriously busy shifts!“

“I don’t know how people can complain about the food. Especially this place. Always yummy and cooked well. There was one time we went and they served the wrong dish. Once. But I’ve been here many many times. Decided to finally leave a good review. I always get the sweet and sour chicken and rice, general chicken and rice, wonton soup, egg rolls, and/or other things randomly sometimes. Always good food. And I’ve never been sick eating from here. The food is served hot, so hot when I get home I gotta blow on it for a short bit, So never cold. The food is always filled to the brim of the take out dish. Well worth the price in my opinion since I usually stuff myself and still need to put left overs in the fridge. Cashiers are always nice and never wrong with the spare change. This is the only and best Chinese food in the area in my opinion. Highly recommend ordering out from here. 10/10“
