I just had one of the best fast food experiences ever, and it was entirely thanks to the incredible team working the drive-thru this morning. From the moment we pulled up to the speaker to the moment we drove off with our food, Victor and his coworker (whose name I unfortunately didn’t catch) had us laughing, smiling, and genuinely enjoying ourselves.
Their energy was amazing, funny, upbeat, and so naturally warm. They told jokes, kept the conversation light,...

The customer service here is so good it almost doesn't belong in 21st century! The service was similar when people had manners and were always polite not acting like your bothering them by interrupting them while they scroll through their Instagram feed! Thank you to the person who was working last Saturday night. She deserves a raise
