“I love Freddy’s steak burgers. I don’t eat burgers often but have to get Freddy’s when I am passing through. Pearlie from Chicago“

“My friend and I went to O'Charley's in Marion, Il, and had a great time from the minute we walked in until we left. The food was very good, and the service was, too. Our waiter, Ayden, made it a very entertaining time for us, and made us feel special. If they have an employee of the month there, we nominate him for sure! Thanks for a wonderful time!“

“I came right at the lunch rush after having driven from Saint Louis so the line was as packed as you would imagine at that time. The employees were friendly and the line did move pretty fast considering they were flame grilling the patties. I would come here again if I'm in the Marion area.“

“Cleanest DQ I've EVER been in. Very hospitable service too! Highly impressed!“

“Wendy’s in Marion, Illinois feels like one of those reliable road stops every traveler hopes to find 🍔🚛 Right off the highway, surrounded by the movement of America, it carries that comforting energy of a place where tired drivers, families, and late-night wanderers all cross paths 🌙🛣️ After long miles on the road, the lights of this spot feel like a signal to pause, recharge, and breathe for a moment ✨☕

The atmosphere has that classic Midwest steadiness — simple, welcoming, and dependable. Fresh food, quick service, and a place where you can reset before heading back into the journey 🍟🥤 Whether it’s a fast lunch or a midnight stop, it delivers exactly what the road demands.

Sometimes the best places aren’t fancy — they’re the ones waiting when you need them most. A solid stop with true highway spirit 🇺🇸🔥🚗“

“I pulled into drive thru, was told it would be a 10 to 15 minute on a cheeseburger wait because they make everything fresh and there was already one car ahead of me. I said that would be fine and she seemed annoyed. I pulled ahead to wait after paying, sat for about 9 minutes. No big deal. Took the cheeseburger to my fiance for lunch break and they doused it in ketchup and mustard, threw a ridiculous amount of pickles on it, and got condiments all over the wrapper. Ketchup and mustard literally plopped off the wrapper in clumps. Not pictured: the ketchup and mustard on the top and bottom buns soaked almost all the way through the bun. Seems like they were annoyed I didn't leave rather than wait so they'd show me I guess? Anyways, fiancé didn't get to eat in lunch break and I called back to back 4 times and let the phone ring for over a minute each time. Very poor customer service.“

“The quality of our local steak and shakes have significantly improved along with the staff. Much cleaner, tastes better, and even seems more filling than it used to. On top of that the new company policies like banning microwaves, beef tallow for their fried goods, and grass fed beef for the burgers. It went downhill a while ago but I can definitely say it has done a complete 360 and has honestly been one of our families favorite quick fast food locations now. Definitely better than McDonald's.“

“Steak done perfectly, the best tasting steak, in my opinion! Broccoli 🥦 is not over or under cooked and has a special seasoning that tastes great! Ribs are to Perfection according to my husband. He tries ribs all over and keeps going back to Applebee's for the best!“

“I just want to say, Stephanie at the Marion IL store is one of the friendliest voices I have heard at a drive thru! The last 2 times I have been there she has been the voice that takes my order and she does it with an attentive ear and pleasant upbeat response!“

“10 star for service and a kind soul**********. Today I went to this DQ to make an order that broke my heart. That being a pup cup but with added fudge. That sounds odd to most as it did for the drive thru worker. I believe she may have reached out to the manager and as I repeated the order, he said a child’s ice cream would be more for your money.. all I had to say was, it’s for my old pups last treat. Without hesitation or anymore questions, he said “I got you”, “I fully understand and have it taken care of”, needless to say, I start crying because I knew that he knew the heartbreak I was going through. He spoke such kind understanding words when I pulled up and even got my little Luckia a small serving of just fudge that she could lap up. I sadly didn’t catch his name but I wanted to reach out and tell him Thank you from the bottom of my heart for making my hard decisions a little less heartbreaking. I’d add a pics of her enjoying it but doesn’t allow the option.“

“Had breakfast this morning and had the pleasure of being served by Ginny. She was personable, courteous, quick to get to me and just made the meal very pleasant. Please let he know that she did a very good job.“

“Actually make the food fresh when asked especially when we spend 46.34 on food. The cost is way too high. The service is terrible. The managers are argumentative. No accountability. My family will not go back after tonight. Worst service ever“
