“First time at a Runza, and it was great. The service was fantastic, and the lady at the counter helped us with what to order. The food was out quickly and was still hot after we made it home around 10 to 15 mins. We don't have these where I am from, but I will definitely come back and get a cheese runza and frings anytime!“

“So I went here and I had the extra long chili cheese Coney and then I had a regular combination hot dog. I also ordered a drink.
The staff never seems very happy they try to be pleasant but you can read the body language very well and they just don't seem happy if you give them a tip they'll smile and be happy for a moment, but I think they need to work on it
The food was good I can never see exactly how clean they are inside because no one ever gets to go inside the building, I would recommend that you ask if you're seriously concerned
I would recommend this place“

“Dear Sonic, I’ve come to the realization that the only reason you have 50¢ corn dog days is so you can train the new cooks or possibly you open your doors to Helen Keller school for the blind students to learn how to cook. The only thing that resembles a corn dog on this blackened charred wiener is the stick.“

“I must confess, Taco Johns is my absolute favorite place to eat. If I had more money than Jeff bezos, I'd still eat Taco Johns over a fancy steakhouse.

My favorite menu item is the Taco Burger, and when I eat here I always get at least 4 (and no, I'm not overweight at all, just addicted). I'm getting hungry just thinking about it. The soft shell tacos are great, the super nachos are amazing, as is just about anything on the menu. And it's always very easy on the wallet, unless you pig out like I do...but it's SO worth it.

You *always* need to get a churro for desert, as they are the best desert ever conceived. They used to have sopapias (not sure that's spelled correctly) and they were also fantastic but I think they were discontinued. Don't quote me on that.

As for the location specifically, it's kind of small but that's rarely ever an issue. Thr drive through is right off the main street, and it's easy to navigate. The workers have always been kind and the food has always been made properly. They've never got my order wrong, or made a subpar item. I'm not a person who tips, but, I am real close to tipping the workers at this location and my other one.

I can't praise this restaurant enough. And I'm so thankful that there is two locations within 30 minutes of where I live. Best food ever. 5/5 stars. They should get the Nobel Peace Prize honestly.“

“The few times I had stopped here and ordered breakfast food it was fresh & satisfying each time!
But there have been a couple of times they gave me the wrong pies with my order, and were a few times they did NOT make my coffee the way I ordered it!
So now I check before leaving the window regardless of the mean faces they give me!!!
See, they DON'T UNDERSTAND that I desperately need the order correct so I can be safe & awake for my long drive and NOT become a statistic!!!
They don't have to make this trip.. I DO!!!“

“Amazing food, great service, and doesn't hate people unlike what some leftists seem to believe. They treat their employees well and don't overwork them, and actually acknowledge that Sunday is a day fo rest. If you have a problem with them practising religious freedom, don't eat there and midn your own business. They're not hurting anyone and they have the right to practice Christianity. I'm sure if it was any other religion they'd be supported and left alone but just because they don't support lgbt and whatever ridiculous social stuff you've all made up doesn't make it right for you to hate them.“
