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.“

“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.“

“Funny employees 🤣
Update review. BLACKSTONE purchased them and now quantity amd quantity are much lower. Cheese amd meats and cut thinner.
I can't eat hear ever again. BLACKSTONE is killing the housing rental market and income levels“

“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.“

“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“

“This place is FANTASTIC 10/10“

“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.“

“Great food. Breakfast today a sausage egg biscuit was very good try it everyone!!!“

“Chilling with my soulmate Donald“

“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! 😊“

“great food and fantastic atmosphere for everyone“

“Busiest shopping day of the year and had a great experience at Portillo's! Staff was very friendly, and having fun. One lady was dancing around while she was doing her work and singing with the Christmas carols playing overhead. Chris at the pickup counter was super friendly. Guy that took our order was very helpful in making decisions on our order. Thank you Portillo's team!!“

“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.“

“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!“

“My big complaint is if someone has a big order.Or the order is gonna take longer than usual, and there's a bunch of cards behind you.They should send that person forward.So the cards can keep going.There's many times they've come, especially on the weekends where that does not happen.Very frustrating“

“I was reading these reviews and can not believe what I was reading , I had an I counter with the owner about a Dairy Queen cake and he was more then polite and he refunded me some of the money and gave my the cake , the order was actually my bad and not his but when I called there to straighten up my error and change my order he stated he would take care of it and he did , like a person who sticks to there word , when in fact the mix up in the order was on me . Will go there every time I need a cake or in the mood for a little icecream“

“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!“

“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!!!!“

“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!“

“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.“

“You have to order pretty much even kiosks here. Sometimes there may be someone to take your order at the pickup table but it seemed to be infrequent when we were there as there were only 3 staff we could see filling orders in the back. It is a smaller taco bell so has only so many seating options. They had a power outage when we were there so got a little backed up / behind as systems came back up, etc. They managed to get everything back and get our orders out but it was hard to catch anyone in all the rush to get back on track. So unusual experience but we have had great service in the drive through before too.“

“My son and I stopped by yesterday after a tough loss on the soccer field. I attempted to cheer him up with a #3, Mikes Way. The manager and crew were amazingly generous — they just had a big order cancel, and gave us the extra subs! Made my son smile, and we were the champs bringing lunch home to the rest of the fam! ❤️“

“Stopped in, drafted an email (chairs were comfy), used the bathroom, and ordered food to take to my parents' house.
Staff was amazingly friendly and efficient. The olace was clean, and the food was good (I tried the Reuben). I can see why my parents like this place!“

“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.“

“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 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 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.“

“70 plus years of deliciousness for me !!“

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

“Always love Jersey Mikes, best fast sub shop in Minnesota BUT let me tell you this location has the best customer service ever! Their assistant manager Ashley was so helpful when * I SCREWED UP** and ordered at this location (the last JM I had visited, last week) rather than the intention of ordering near my home. She went out of her way to call me back and get order cancelled and refunded. Such above and beyond and she was so kind! Thanks! Will be back soon!“

“Amazing customer service!!! They gladly made me a custom BLIZZARD using two dairy-frre Dilly Bars and wine Reeses Peanut Butter Cups. YUMMY!“

“Fantastic customer service at this location! I went today and the male worker was not only cooking but bringing out the orders for everyone. Then I watched him immediately start cleaning the floors and tables even though it was clean and proceeded to say farewell to each customer leaving. He deserves recognition, best service and burgers at a Five Guys I’ve ever had :)“

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

“I called and was unable to get app to work at all (load) on the Oct 4-6 special classic pricing. The first call- so sorry you will have to come in and order. HOWEVER upon calling back when I did get the app operational yet it would not take the special pricing, the gal helping me said ‘NO PROBLEM’ I can do this over the phone . When the price for her came up similar , I decided to cancel the order . It was a drive anyway. Then she asked me to hold on. She did say the special was for only one per person - bummer I was seeing someone and was going to get theirs . Then she said no worries, with all the hassle we will give you the bowl at regular price and just not charge for the meat. It’s a win/win so I said yes. I came for pickup . It was ready. I also had a bday Rice Krispie which I look forward to every year - lots of marshmallow! Much to my pleasant surprise , when I got to my destination and opened the bag, both my original meals were there 🤔😁🙏🙏. On the cover it said ‘enjoy, we made an extra ‘. What a pleasant surprise and what exceptional extra customer service from the cooks and ordering staff . You made my day after a tough time realizing some bad news and unexpected car repairs. Thank you . I will pass it along and we will definitely recommend your store .“

“I live just down the road from this Taco Bell and I always tend to hit it up on my way to work, it's cheap, it's tasty and it's always quickly made. I am a vegan, and they always accommodate my specially-made meals perfectly. They also always give me extra veggies so my tacos aren't skimpy and sad for the price that I'm paying. I'm super grateful for this location never letting my tacos be contaminated with things that I cannot have. They are always on point with service, super friendly and very quick at what they do no matter how busy it is. Mad respect for this Taco Bell location and all the people that work there, they do a fantastic job! Love the food, appreciate the good service, overall really good location. The store is always clean, the bathrooms are always clean, the sauces & utensils are always stocked, garbages are never overflowing... This place must be really well-managed because they have a five-star out of me. 🔥🔥🔥💯💯✨🎉💥“

“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.“

“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.“

“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.“

“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.“

“I have been to this Arby’s many times and it always has fast, friendly, and professional service. The woman manager is a gem! She is always very helpful, friendly, and completely professional. She has a fantastic attitude and is the main reason I keep coming back here. The food is outstanding: hot, fresh, and delicious!“

“Ok first off, getting in and out sucked, floors felt a bit sticky, service was phenomenal! honestly best service I've had at a dq, I got a bacon burger, the meat itself was good but the bacon should have been cooked a little bit longer...the chicken was well cooked and flavorful“

“welcome all age, nice place for graduation/birthday party“

“I didn't know I could combine two flavors on my fries. Of course, in a giga size. I loved that they gave me a drink for just two dollars more, the costumer service is great. I wish they had gift cards; my friends would be delighted with a gift like that.Happy holidays to you guys!“

“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.“

“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!“

“Excellent service and food 🍗🍗“

“We have been going here since it opened and is always pretty good they do tend to mess up the ingredients on the subs alot I did complain once and received free subs from the manager I think but can't redeem on account no one at the store knows about it so we just pay for our food I see they are opening one in stillwater may give that one a try.“

“I normally use drive through tonight the girl at the window showed great service she seemed to like her job and was super friendly.
I asked to speak to manager to let him know how pleased I was with the service everytime I go there.
Keep up the good work.“
