“Drive thru w rewards and last minute brownie and dog treat was the best experience overall will visit here even when it is 8mins further than my other location really made my pup happy I prefer dog treats over whip cream both are appreciated“

“We just got home from a long trip and needed a good meal, we stopped at 5Guys at Lakewood Mall where Millie greeted us with a warm smile and took our order. Esmeralda made the food exactly to our order and the amount of fries!!!
I do wish there was more strawberry in my shake, but it was creamy and delish! Thank you girls for a great burger and warm welcome.“

“I stopped by on a whim and boy am I glad I did. Ordered the 12 piece 🍤 with 🍟. and BOY was the owner very generous in his portions. They were PERFECTLY SEASONED AND CRISPY. 😋 Delicious . Highly recommend.“

“Everything tasted amazing, tamales were moist and delicious. My girls were very chatty and all over their counter, and backed me up wonderfully when I was giving the girls instructions to stay off. It was an amazing experience through and through.“

“So this originally was going to be a pretty bad review. But I’ve decided to leave five stars. I had an awful experience with the app and it charging me 3 times, Without it actually placing the order. At that point, I didn’t have any money left for food, Because it had taken $30 from me. I was super upset, so I just walked out to my car and started losing it (Because it’s not their fault). A few minutes later, the manager walked outside to my car and He was really sympathetic of my situation. He made the order for me So I didn’t have to go hungry due to the app malfunctioning. So essentially, I had a problem that was not necessarily the restaurant fault. But they still showed care for me as a human being and corrected the problem. So yes, I am giving this place five stars. The food was also delicious.“

“Yo! I’m giving 5 stars because there is only one worker here right now 5 people in the store and he’s doing what he can. It’s a shame that there’s not another employee here too help. I work in the service industry and have been in this position before. Do your franchise’s reputation a favor and fully staff your stores! I’m not even mad about waiting 20 minutes for my sandwich that I pre-ordered ahead of time.“

“Dairy Queen Grill & Chill is one of those places that keeps things simple in the best way. The food comes out fast, the burgers and chicken strips are dependable, and the Blizzards are always the highlight — thick, sweet, and exactly what you expect every time. The dining areas are usually clean, the staff keeps things friendly, and the whole experience feels easy and relaxed. A solid stop when you want classic comfort food and a treat without any fuss.“

“I visited on 12/4/2025, and I had such a great experience! I was greeted warmly, the service was fast, employees pleasant. The food quality was exactly what I've come to expect from Jack!! So nice to have a PERSONAL INTERACTION and not just ordering screens ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“

“I love Mod. Not quite what they used to be post covid, but still good. The pizza is awesome, IF, you know how to build a pizza. I always get my special, which is a phenomenal tasting pizza. Also not alot of pizza places around anymore with fire ovens. I suggest asking for olive oil and fig balsamic drizzled over your pizza after it comes out of the oven.“

“We ordered three sandwiches for pickup from the website. So many customization options, and the results were delicious. I really loved that there was a hot sauce bar too, which I took advantage of on the way out the door with my sandwiches. We wound up coming to Firehouse Subs twice more during the week that we were in town. Hopefully there are Firehouse Subs locations in Seattle... I better check!“

“Lobby is temporarily closed today only from 1:30pm & will reopen at 5:30pm for dining inside placing indoor orders as well on their kiosks or by using their taco bell mobile app on your smartphone as they no longer take orders at the front counter anymore. You can place food orders at the drive thru between those hours.“

“Wendy’s is one of those places that stays steady every time you go. The food comes out fast, the burgers taste fresh, and the fries and Frosty combo always hits the way it should. The service is usually quick and straightforward, and the whole experience feels simple and reliable. It’s an easy stop when you want something good without overthinking it.“

“the chicken was good. hot crispy spicy the way we like it.“

“Night shift on Thursday thank you for helping me decide what to put on my onion teriyaki sub it was delicious and the first time a ate a sub and it didn't fall apart or drip every where. So I don't know what made it different but it was good. Your a expert sandwich maker 😀 the cost though was way to much over $40 for two foot longs 🥴🤨😰👎“

“Tonight I just literally had such a wonderful experience. Shout out to Emily & her manager Kaelynn (I hope I am spelling this correctly, if not, my apologies!!!) Was given excellent customer service and our food was absolutely delicious. Emily is such a kind soul and really brings a lot of life into this subway. Everything was just literally perfect. ♡“

“The staff at the Steilacoom Blvd did an amazing job with an online catering order for the 18-piece box. Everything as was ordered and on time. It was all well packaged, well constructed, and the sandwiches themselves were delicious. I’ll be certain to order from them again in the future!“
