10 Best Fast Food Restaurants in Waukee

“We got our food to go. It was ready way quicker than we expected. Staff was very friendly and engaging also.“

“We are from out of town and decided to try something new. Our choice was a hit because the food was fabulous, great flavor and the service was exceptional friendly and helpful. We didn’t know what to order so the server helped us navigate the menu. I definitely recommend the food.“

“Fresh Mediterranean Express has a very nice, welcoming interior, which made our visit pleasant. We weren’t sure what to order, so we tried a pita. Having spent time in Greece, we’ve had some unforgettable Mediterranean food, and while this was good, it didn’t quite have that magic—the pita was plain and lacked warmth or seasoning.

The homemade hummus was tasty, my son loved the ginger lemonade, and the steak gyro was decent. Overall, a friendly place with potential, and we may give it another chance in the future. ⭐“

“Took my 15 month old to have breakfast and check out the play area. They have 4-10 area and an under 4 play area. My little guy loved being able to climb around the toddler area and try out the slide. He was able to take a couple of tumbles without actually getting hurt as the area has padded flooring. We will definitely be back!“

“Pretty good. I don't know how, but they have managed to make a quarter pound of beef seem like an eighth. LOL. I have never seen a thinner patty in my life.

Yet, the taste is there. Combo meal with fries and added a turtle sundae. Total was $14.50 or so. They make a good sandwich.

Pop machine was out of ice and ketchup container was empty. No problem. Staff addressed both when they were told.

Clean space and everyone was wearing a smile. Culvers seems to be good at finding those staff that will smile!“

“While on a road trip, we needed some Taco John's (not available in our part of the country). Off I35/I80 (west), exit 125, head west for nearly six miles (boo!) on US Hwy 6 / E. Hickman Road. Tricky getting to it in strip mall facing the highway; watch out, the parking lot is tight. Good, prompt service. The four cheese quesadilla was prepared just how I like it, with no sauce. Those potato oles, too die for!“

“Quick and fast!! There is definitely nothing healthy about the food, but it fits the bill when you feel like you don't care about getting fat. Anyways, I did a pick-up and I could not believe that there was no air-conditioning so my heart goes out to all the workers there!!!“

“This looks like a regular restaurant and more expensive than DQ from the outside, but was surprisingly inexpensive with meals (burger, fries, drink) ranging from packages that are $6+. The food is very similar to DQ, as well as the shakes similar to DQ blizzards, but the prices are to similar to Burger King's coupon deals and the environment like a retro 1960's restaurant. Super surprised at the great prices! Photos shown are just like the actual food.“
