“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I want to recognize Matthew, who was working the drive-thru window during my visit on Dixie Land. He was so outgoing, upbeat, and full of positive energy that it really stood out! He greeted me with a big smile, made great conversation, and turned a simple drive-thru stop into a genuinely fun experience. He’s super bubbly, but I truly appreciated how he used that energy to brighten my day. Matthew deserves to be recognized for the way he goes above and beyond with customer service. Chick-fil-A is lucky to have him!”

“I dont know, How do you leave a review to a very popular buisness without getting belittled/bashed.. the owner Karina thinks so highly of herself ..you'd think someone thats been through so much wouldnt act so childish or rude towards a customer.. at this point its not even the issue I had with the food anymore its the way it was handled by the owner herself.. literally saying im lieing.. arguing back and forth was very very unprofessional.. she handed the phone to Anna without me even knowing.. just to shut me up.. well Anna which i believe is more mature ..handled things more calm and collective. It wasn't even about getting refunded or credit.. but more of a "hey just a heads up this was my experience" and BAMM.. raising her voice !!! Lost my appetite and total respect for the buisness.. ive dined in oredered doordash.. they've even delivered to me and my kids before. I've supported this buisness just to get yelled at !! I recommended the place because yes they have potential but dam dont disagree or complain.. customers dont come first at least not in my situation.. or experience.. all in all God Bless”

“Sonic cheeseburger combo and their pretzels are amazing top it off with a cold fountain drink or with this Texas heat try a fresh fruit slush its an internal a/c for your innards either way you cant go wrong with all the delicious flavor combinations you can add to your drink if choice. Breakfast, lunch or dinner Sonic has awesome food choices. The only bad thing is you have so many choices and 1 stomach to fill. Other than that you cant complain because everything is awesome. From experience I ordered a cheeseburger combo and I got a regular hamburger U didn't feel like calling and complaining so I are the hamburger and to my own surprise I caught myself ordering the regular combo with everything in it something I would never have ordered since I'm used to my cheeseburger combo but what I didn't realize was what I had been missing before the burger mix up occurred. All I have to say was thanks to that mix up I have a new combo experience and I will recommend Sonic to everyone. If you haven't experienced Sonic what are you waiting for? Get in your car and order, have it delivered but try any of Sonic Food and beverages you cant go wrong. Go on now, what are you waiting for? Only you are holding yourself back from ordering. Order Sonic and quit depriving yourself and experience the deliciousness of Sonic.”

She didn’t ask for a receipt/proof and when i came up to the window she reassured me that my order was perfect and she double checked it and gave me treats for the inconvenience Working now in customer service now and these are the type of managers that need to get raises and open their own store 10/10”

Overall, everything from service to food quality was on point. Definitely a location I’d come back to and recommend to others.”

“Came on a Sunday afternoon with my kids at about dinner time to eat inside. We were going to get chicken tenders but were told it would be an 8 minute wait so we opted for nuggets and a chicken sandwich. The food was ready by the time we got 4 drinks from the infinity-options-drink-machine. Food was warm and ready to eat. The inside was clean yet small, like very small. There's maybe 12 tables. Yet it isn't the busiest part of town so I don't think it will ever be crowded inside. Even the tray I got my food on was small. I remember when you would get a tray so big you could carry 5 meals on it. Their tray was just big enough for my meal. If you need booster seats there was 2 ready to use and 1 booster seat, which is good to know when you take the kids out for a treat. There didn't seem to be a lot of parking spaces which fits with the size of the inside. 2 handicap spots 2-3 spots for delivery drivers and a handful of regular parking spots. I would eat here again.”

Jokes on me, when I asked her what all she was doing for us.Her answer was that she was also doing phone orders.WOW..! She can really multitask.Which is UNUSUAL for the younger generation these days.

“WOW! Great job Hector. This employee actually cared enough to make my sandwich with care. Others have just always served me sloppy sandwiches. I understand time is precious but customers are too.He was actually clean and neat. He changed his gloves. Others handle money and my sandwich like what's the point of wearing gloves dorks. Showing that employees care is the best customer service there is. Subway compensate the good ones. They are the ones who bring customers from far just bz they want to feel the carrying and fresh feeling. Vegetarian options: What makes the subway fresh is the employees who handle the food. Parking: Next to Home Depot on Ed Carey in Harlingen TX. Eat fresh people”

“After having issues with the other Panda on Sunshine strip we called ahead to ask if they still had main dishes available, and the answer was reassuring: “If we don’t have what you want, we can cook it for you.” That’s exactly the kind of customer service you hope for. When we arrived, the staff followed through, they were friendly, respectful, and made sure we got what we needed without any hassle. It was a refreshing experience compared to the other location on Sunshine strip I really appreciated their willingness to go the extra mile and keep their word. Great job to the team for showing care and professionalism even close to closing time, will definitely go back even if a more of a drive for us.”

“I hadn't been to any Burger King in over 10 years even though there is one in my SATX neighborhood and one within walking distance to my workplace. The Harlingen location was pretty great and clean. The burger tasted good. Mozzarella sticks were good. The service was friendly and attentive. The lower rating of the atmosphere is because the exterior isn't well lit. But, we're all conserving electricity, right? I'll visit again. Good job, Harlingen. Thanks.”
