Fast Food Restaurants near Circle Pines

“It's Unbelievable the changes that have happened. Depends on A team or D team.
Our order was thru the kiosk. Order brought to the table and he was Very pleasant. And our orders the last couple months have been right.
Way to go getting some people who have Work Ethics. Great job.“

“Tyrone was amazing! And very understanding. I'm Allergic to onions so when it came time to make my sandwich I asked him to change gloves he had no problem and completely understood why I need him to change. He was also training a new person in and was very helpful showing him how to do things! I will be going back to this store because of him!“

“It's under New Management. The manager I spoke with today was very helpful in aiding me in the direction to resolve an issue I'm having with the Forest lake location. I strongly suggest not going to that location (unless you're willing to defend yourself against the employees apparently they get drunk and hang out there and try to fight the customers in the Drive-Thru.) He was very accommodating to my issue and I hope to hear back from the branch manager. Thanks again for your help.“

“This place is FANTASTIC 10/10“

“Feels good to be inside a CFA. Staff at other fast food seem to look depressed to see a customer walk in. CFA staff makes me feel like they are glad I walked in.“

“Only took stars off of atmosphere because, hey, its just a fast food restaurant. But the food is always delicious (and right, don't remember ever getting the wrong order, unlike some other places in town) and the staff is super nice and always seems to want to do a good job.“

“It's one of the better Cane's I've been too amd don't over look the bulk ordering for parties. 100 finger, coleslaw and toast for less then 200. It was perfect for a group or work for lunch. The workers are super friendly here too“

“Great location and wonderful staff!!“

“Just wanted to give Josh a shout out for giving me some of the most friendly customer service I had. Easy-going and not over the top. Hoping the manager sees this and he’s recognized.
Food is always excellent here as well of course.“

“Culver’s has the best Butter Burger’s - North Atlantic Cod & famous Custard of the day! I have been going to the Vadnais Heights Culver’s for several years! The friendly staff is “Impeccable “ I always buy the Calendars & Gift Cards! Thank You Culver’s for supporting our Farmers! 5 Golden Stars! 😊“

“The custard was amazing, I wish I had bought more.😅 I got a grilled chicken sandwich, which was amazing, and Chili, although there chilly was cold and only beans, no meat like a lot of other changes iv been to. Which is unfortunate since I do really love their Chili. The place was a bit dirty too and a lot of the emopees were just chatting with each other. I'm the front.“

“I have heard many times of JMS. But on this one occasion when driving my Lyft and I picked up an employee of JMS . During our conversation I had asked him of the difference subs and he told me about the “ Mikes way” . I promised to try. I called my wife and said “ I am bringing home dinner”. I did stop at JMS and ordered just the recommended sub. We were not disappointed at all. I have made a pledge that if We have to had sub for dinner, JMS is where we are going.“

“Very quiet and peaceful, the play area being separate from the other part of the restaurant really ups the experience. I do not mainly eat out, so I only got fries but they were perfectly fine.

Parking: Right next to the highway with easy access, the parking lot is usually quite empty as well.

Kid-friendliness: This location has a kids place where parents can watch their children.“

“The pick up window is very convenient and staff was very accommodating and helpful with my order. I was very impressed by the customer service because that is so rare these days. Thank you.

Kid-friendliness: Very kind, friendly and accommodating staff. They have smiles on their faces and very professional attitude!“

“great food and fantastic atmosphere for everyone“

“We don't go to get ice cream much anymore due to the high prices of both the treats and the gas to get there so when we are able to go for ice cream it is a REAL treat!

Kid-friendliness: There were several people with children there and even one person feeding ice cream to her dog.“

“8-13-25 @9pm
They got my order wrong. I asked to upgrade to mac&cheese from french fries for the #1 meal. I got to the window, recieved the food, went through the bag and realized they gave me fries and no mac.
I kindly told the girl at the window ( Who never repeated my order back to me, just asked for my name) and she proceeded to roll her eyes at me. She ( being annoyed) asked for my food back ( which CFA is never supposed to do) She called some younger guy in the blue striped polo over, he said to take the fries out of my bag and throw them away. ( I guess they thought I was trying to pull one over on them? not sure. Usually they just keep them in the bag)
Instead of grabbing a napkin or a glove, she sticks her hand in my bag of food and pulls out the fries, and sticks the bag of food back out of the window to give to me. I'm sorry, im really not picky usually, but money is disgusting. On top of that, you're touching the window and everything else.
There was 3 cars behind me in line.....
This is the only store I CONSISTANTLY have to ask for my sauces because they never get it right.
I was a store manager for 2 1/2 years at a CFA in Maryland. I get it, I know how it can be. But I also know that- that job... is not THAT hard.
And to get annoyed at me because your order taker didnt input the meal correctly? I'm sorry, but thats completely innapropriate and I had to write a review on here.

Mangement needs to really improve the night shift workers there because I'm starting to get really tired of constantly feeling like I'm being a problem whenever I remind them they forgot something that I asked for.

I do not mean to go on a rant but CFA is better than this. WAY better. And I will try to make sure that the management at that CFA see's me. I am more than willing to speak to management there.“

“Nothing better than going to Dairy Queen for some soft serve ice cream. It's the best!!

However, the DQ in Plymouth off Rockford Road needs their employees better trained for customer service. They were very rude to me when I asked them if I could buy a bunch (4 boxes) of dilly bars and buster bars for my crew. They said I could only buy one box, as they just opened and need to leave the rest of the dilly and busterbars for other customers. Just thought that was a bit strange to restrict my purchase of buying more. One particular young man at the counter represented poor customer service by his attitude. Maybe they were afraid they'd have to make more or reload the freezer? Not sure what his issue was but I even tried to give him the benefit of a doubt and make him smile, but no luck.“

“Chilling with my soulmate Donald“

“We ordered 3 concrete mixers and 2 sundaes. After waiting about 15 minutes to receive our order, we checked in with the staff and they immediately let us know that they would bring it out right away. The manager also assured us that we would receive a coupon and could choose ice cream pints from the fridge near the ordering counter. They were very friendly and happy to make sure we had a positive experience. Will definitely be returning! Customer service done right!“

“It was a great experience next time I’m in Minnesota I will be definitely eating there again!“

“This place is incredible. I haven't been here in a bit, the new renovation is fantastic. Stopped by today during the height of the lunch rush. Drive thru was about 10 cars deep so decided to go inside to order. About 7 customers in front of me. The GM was taking orders at the register and she got through everyone very quickly.

Excellent and speedy service. The best compliment that I can give is it reminded me of a Chick Fil A. Very prompt and fast, very clean. Usually these Arby's locations are old and run down and very dirty. Workers couldn't care less. This location was the exact opposite. This location is spotless, and even better to see the GM running the counter with a smile and friendly attitude.

Food was great too. Come to this location, you won't regret it.“

“This is my one-stop Taco shop with all the good eats at an extremely reasonable price. They have a nice variety of food items on the menu, and the service is nice and quick. I eat here probably twice a week, and when you're having a craving, it hits the spot every time! They also have some great vegetarian options as well. Just come here and eat when you're looking for a budget friendly meal.. You won't be disappointed!“

“Not an inexpensive fast food restaurant but their burgers are very good! They have prepacked pints of ice cream in many, many flavors. The ice cream is so rich and creamy....a must if you go!
The location is very clean and staff are friendly.“

“I stopped in for dinner with my wife and we had a good experience. They were friendly and the service was quick. Inside the restaurant was clean and seemed in good order. I might stop here again if I'm
In the area. I think you would be happy also. Good job guys.“

“We just came through tonight and the guys were upbeat, friendly and soooooooo fast - with smiles for miles! Me and my wife were so impressed, and wanted to say thank you for helping create such a fun moment in this unprecedented time! God bless you and your staff! Again, thank you!“

“we can be h hi our way to the house now so if you want“

“This was my servings time eating the Maplewood location and the first time didn't go so well but this time it was GREAT!!! The young lady at the dive thru window was very very kind polite and understanding and the food was nice and hot and fresh. This location has redeemed they self
Definitely will go back.
Thank you for a wonderful experience and slamming food!!!“

“Atmosphere rating not applicable. Did not dine in. Went through drive through. Order was correct. Minority employees were helpful, kind, generous, had understandable English, and quick to complete order. Would return to this drive through location and even feel obligated and delighted to dine inside. Pleasurable experience.“

“I am only writing this review for one employee

Alisha is truly a cake decorating magician! Despite my last minute calls… twice!! she was willing to take on my orders with a positive fun attitude and even accepts my theme requests. Her enthusiasm shines through every time she answers the phone, making the whole experience delightful. Beyond that, she does an absolutely fantastic job on the cakes, offering thoughtful suggestions and genuinely caring about the quality and final result. Unlike others who might just take the order, Alisha goes the extra mile to ensure perfection. Dairy Queen is lucky to have such a star on their team! Huge thanks to Alisha for making every cake special!!!!“

“I haven't had Taco John's in years. I used to live in the Midwest, but I moved to Texas, where they don't have them. I just moved back to Minnesota last month. I must say they have not changed, and that is both a good thing in my opinion.

Taco John's isn't expensive or high quality, but they are good. They hit a nostalgia button for me that takes me right back to the 90s, just delicious, cheap, salty food.

The best thing is the Potato Olés, these are the star of the restaurant and would have them over McDonald's fries any day of the week, and twice on Christmas.“

“Great Customer Service! Friendly and professional. Food is always fresh! Love the assistant manager! I eat/order at Culver twice a week!“

“I can confidently say I’ve never had “good” McDonald’s, but this location nailed it. Not only did they read/review our order with us twice, but the food came out hot and actually tasted good. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve been stuck in stale-fry purgatory. These fries were what dreams are made of. Extra kudos to the young girl working the window, she was so nice and did her due diligence making sure our order was correct. And don’t get me started on the godly nectar that is their fountain Diet Coke. 10/10 experience.“

“I was having a ugh evening.summer left and it's cold...rainy..just..ugh...
Then the attitude of such an uplifting woman as she greeted me in the drive thru,fully turned around my night,,unexpected,needed appreciated...then I was smiling n happy and drove to wrong window and messed up there order and Tyler ,who had to deal with my mix up...still was helpful and kind ..and I wish I could remember her name so much cuz she then got me my food with an uplifting kind smile and genuine kind good intent...
And ..the food was of course,,perfect...
Thanks so much for the change in my day...priceless...“

“We were here on 09/25 to celebrate my son’s birthday. The staff were extremely nice and added a little “happy birthday” to his cone, which was such a cute, kind gesture! My son knocked over his dad’s shake, and they were kind enough to help fix it. I don’t normally write a lot reviews, however I forgot to say thank you throughout the chaos :)“

“I went there two days in a row to buy the new pork belly burger. The first pork belly burger I ordered didn't come with any onions but then the second time, it came with fried onions. So I'm confused.“

“I ordered chicken wings today. I'm going to be honest; these are the best chicken wings I’ve ever had. I'm recommending you guys check this place out. I will definitely be going back again. The atmosphere was absolutely amazing and very welcoming.“

“Food was tasty, location was great. Service was very slow

“70 plus years of deliciousness for me !!“

“We like this Taco Bell and order quite often because of the convenient location, reasonable prices, friendly employees and accurate orders.

Vegetarian options: There are a few options for vegetarians but this could be improve with more selections to try.

Dietary restrictions: I like that you can easily find the nutrition info on the Taco Bell website.

Kid-friendliness: My kids like the menu options.“

“My family has enjoyed visiting this restaurant for 20 years. The quality overall wavered in the last few years, but new owners have restored my confidence. The lunch buffet is delicious, fresh and well tended. I sampled everything and can honestly say that the place is back on it's feet, and running. My compliments to the owner/s and staff.“

“Came here today, decided to go drive through because every time i go here i always encounter with a nice worker. She always gets the order right and make sures i am satisfied with the service, she is really nice and should get payed more, the other staff has no emotions but she is so happy all the time and always greets customers with a smile, the food is great, not salty. She even gives me a few jelly packets! Happen to catch her name, i think it was Sherlyn or Sherlin. She is also a very pretty young lady!“

“Great place to eat. Great service and very attentive employees. Sandwiches were amazing and prepared very quickly. Faster than Jimmy John’s.“

“Shout out to Alex who went above and beyond to make up for Doordash's failure. THANK YOU ALEX!“

“OK all the Jersey Mike’s locations in the Metro area take note , this place is over the top ! They made my sandwich perfectly the way I requested it with the ample amount of onions, tomatoes, and pickles on it not just three onions and two tomatoes like at most locations where they’re afraid to put any more veggies on as if they might get in trouble? Anyway, I might just drive the 28 miles to Roseville just to get a superb sandwich that could’ve and should’ve been made at most other locations. It’s not that hard people !“

“great place to get some quality tacos for cheap! would definitely recommend to all my friends visiting from the west coast! and this location is right across from the lake! you can always find a clean table and they always get my order right!“

“Had never stopped at a raising Canes before. I had no expectations walking in but needed some road fuel for the drive home from a vacation. The guy at the counter was super friendly! I got “The Box” 4 chicken strips, coleslaw, toast, and fries. All of it was good! It felt like real chicken, not processed strips., the toast was awesome, I have an affinity for toast if done well, it was like a slice of pull apart bread toasted if you know what that is. The coleslaw was better than most but not as flavorful or crunchy as a KFC which is where the bar is set for coleslaw for me. The fries were good, a bit underdone for me but still had a little crunch on the outside. All in all I would go back next time I see one!“

“The two crispy McChicken sandwiches for $2. What a treat!“

“Always greeted with a smile!!!! Big props to the employees at this McDonald's!! Food is always hot and the people who work here have the best customer service!!!!“

“It was fun - new location. The staff was friendly, courteous and enthusiastic. The turkey provolone sub was a definite do again. Want to try some others. Will certainly visit again.“
