“Great time celebrating a birthday with friends! Service was friendly and attentive. Margaritas were delicious. I am a sucker for a giant pretzel and baby it did not disappoint. Massive but so tasty and great cheese alongside. I barely had room for the wings I ordered but they were incredible too! Like something out of a food blog. Will definitely be back.“

“Our hometown DQ. Lots of memories here. Good food and ice cream.“

“Of all the McDonald's I've been to, and that's a lot at 62, this location is my favorite. My food is hot, served quickly, or asked to pull forward but not for long. If you don't want to have a wait, I wouldn't go there on the weekends. They are busy and you might have to wait.“

“We pulled up and a young man came to our vehicle to take our order. He brought us a menu. Took our order and brought it out. He was very nice. We haven't eaten here in years, we had moved away. I would definitely recommend trying this place. They only except cash but have an atm inside, husband did have to go in to pay as we didn't have cash so he had to use atm.“

“Absolutely the best around!“

“food is usually amazing just that one waitress mandy was rude and had an attitude.I ordered wings and when I went to pick them.up the waitress mandy said the sauce was in the bag and I checked. I told her there was none in there and she told me it would take awhile to get it and she walked outside. I stood there til the other guy asked if I needed something. he apologized for it not being in there. then when I got home to check the wings they were not even made right. this is the second time I have had a problem with the order. the manager had to come up there to fix it right.“

“I used to work at Culvers and we never disappointed in serving with a smile and helping good paying customers with their orders and complaints. Yes, there were issues every once and a while but what restaurant doesn't. I've eaten there several different times while off the clock or just on one of my off days and my food was always hot and never came out wrong, it's not special treatment, it's good service and being caring and compassionate about one another. <3“

“Hostess and supervisor very rude and think it's okay to degrade a group of older women when all they did was ask for things that should have already been delivered to their table. I couldn't believe how condescending the hostess was to them! To say I'M NOT YOUR WAITRESS!!!! Wow. Then for the supervisor to laugh it off. Unprofessional and because of that, we will not be back.“

“Found an onion ring in my French fries! I love when that happens! Now I'm not saying it was intentional, but if it was thank you. You guys are the best, Burger King is one of those places that is really hit or miss depending on your location so I'm glad the one in Carbondale is good. My fries and burger alway come out hot and fresh.“

“I have visited Chuck’s a good amount and the food has NEVER disappointed! The serving staff has always been great with my kiddos and has always communicated well if there’s an issue. I am also extremely addicted to their catfish bites. I would topple kingdoms for a plate of those….😅 Also, good size portions!“

“Went thru the drive thru, with pretty quick service! Friendly! Handed me my shake with my change. Pulled up to wait for my order, they bright it out hot, and correct! Everything was fresh on the steak burger. It was delicious!! Thanx from SC! We don’t have them down there, and it was perfect!“

“The crab legs were very good. The service was incredible. She was working by herself dealing with all you can eat Crab leg hungry people with a smile and keeping up on when we were ready for more.

“Not sure the name of the manager who brought this to my table but he was very kind and his uniform seemed GMish lol.... anyway just wanted to say thank you. I've had an extraordinarily rough day & my experience at this MCD location took the edge off a bit. It's true, you never know what someone else is going through so always be kind. The man who served me this evening did just that.“

“Very friendly staff and they make the best slushes around! Only complaint is that the screens don’t always work and the card processing takes too long but everyone has an abundance of understanding and patience. The staff works really hard to service all the customers well and keep things moving at a fast pace. It’s a terrific business that I highly recommend!:)“

Were super kind to me throughout the entire process of taking my order, checking me out and handling my food. even when my order was wrong he promptly had it remade. He made me feel special and not just another customer. Even my daughter took note of it. I hope to see him every time I order from this location! Very satisfied! 😁“
