Free Whopper from the T-Mobile Tuesdays app! Sometimes, the residents of the 50th State might feel shortchanged. For example: on television, we see advertisements for Kohl's... And there are no Kohl's stores in Hawaii! Similarly, on the T-Mobile Tuesday app, there are offers for discounted movie tickets through Atom - we don't have Atom in the Aloha State! So - when I was in California, I was able to get my free Whopper from Burger King (because we can't redeem the offer in Hawaii - I don't know why)! Driving from Los Angeles to San Diego takes about two hours. By that time, I needed a restroom and something "free" to eat. I thought I could get three things done at one stop by going to the nearest Burger King. GPS said that the nearest Burger King was on the campus of UCSD (University of California at San Diego)... Okay! However, the pin's location on the map was totally wrong. I drove all over campus, looking for the Burger King. Finally, I parked and asked some students where the Burger King was. It happened to be at the Campus Center with other vendors. (It's actually a really modern and artsy place while being clean, spacious, and functional!) I ordered the $3 minimum on the app (soft drink with free upgrade to large!) and applied the code for the free Whopper. I asked the cashier where the nearest restroom was... Around the corner... Pass the meeting rooms... Alrighty! By the time I returned, my meal was ready! Gosh... That took some work! Uhg! read more

This place is 5 stars in my heart because its open 24 hours on campus so it will save you during all nighters. However the food is slow to make even when youre the only customer, and the food is pretty terrible and the whoppers gave me severe food poisoning once Summary: Taste = taste of food Value = price, expertise, other non-food logistics Novelty = memorability among competitors Taste 1/5, Value 3/5, Novelty 2/5.

Located in the Student Union on the campus of University Ca of San Diego. Mobile order does work as well from the App. Overall the place is located in a nicely set up of a Student Union on campus. Side note for newbies or visitors it is a little tough to find luckily there were students around to ask. read more

shi lowkey trash besides the fries. 10 bucks for the small whopper meal which comes with whopper obv n fries n a bev. i dont think the value is there tho tbh. bk is like bottom tier fast food burgers ngl, and it's 10 bucks for a burger and a minuscule thing of fries bruh. like burger is genuinely buns. their diet coke also didn't give the sense of battery acid. that's not what we want with soda. battery acid gives it character. you want that carbonation, but the soda here lacks that fizzy carbonation character to it. honestly though, why is it 10+ dollars for a small whopper meal now? like either our economy is in shambles or these mfs smoking something man. like i could've went to tap x down the aisle and order the #1 combo for the same price, and it would taste better by tenfold! read more

The service was slow and the food was as mushy and greasy as the buns. They filled my drink with 90% ice and my onion rings that were 5 whole dolors were small and over reheated. read more

This was my second experience with takeout in the last three months. I really like this Burger King, in UTC SD, but this visit, though a good one, was definitely a different experience. I was apprehensive about entering a commercial space with the current restrictions. At first I couldn't tell if the location was open! The plaza that hosts this restaurant was dark, all lights out, and I couldn't tell if people were inside from the West entrance. All doors were closed, as I tested them, working my way around, and finally, I saw a sign directing me to the East side of the plaza. Signage at the entrance stated the required wearing of masks and keeping a 6' distance. The inside of the building was dark and empty, with only a handful of people in the large open space. I hung back as I waited for someone to order. When it was my turn, I ordered the Impossible Whopper and an iced vanilla coffee. I find the drinks a bit pricy here compared to what I'm used to at fast food places. A small fountain drink is $2.50. Though there are a lot of coupon deals if you use the BK app. Service was very quick- it arrived within minutes. The Impossible Whopper was delicious as always. The "meat" had a char to it, making it taste real- or even better! The veggies-pickle, tomato and lettuce, with mayo, were a nice refreshing addition. The iced coffee was really good: creamy and refreshing with the perfect dose of sweet. A delicious meal, and worth the effort! read more

I like the whopper very much because of that fire grilled flavor in the burger patty. The fries are crisp and salted just right. They had mistakenly given my order to somebody else. But, they made my order over right away with apologies. That other customer heard the wring number or something. That just shows that they were too trusting and should have checked receipts. Anywho, I still would come here for those burgers. Still yum yum for the tumtum. read more

Stay Hungry, Stay Foolish Steve Jobs Perhaps it was a clue it was a bit after 12pm, there are not that many food choices at UCSD, and there was nobody in line... Tried the bacon hamburger with lettuce and tomato for $1.59. First thing I noticed was how tiny it was. Next I noticed I was chewing away but I didn't taste much of anything except the starchy bun. There was a tiny piece of bacon in there but the bun beat the flavor out of it. Sadly I had an even worst burger at the company picnic as that one was burned and cold but it was free... Next I tried these new satisfries. Looked like frozen Ore-ida fries I had when I was a kid. They tasted like them too. Not bad but a bit too much salt on these fries. Steve Jobs would have been 59 today. This review is for Steve. I wish I would have followed your advice about staying hungry. I'm no longer hungry but I feel a bit dirty having eaten that bacon burger. :-( 2nd visit: I had a coupon for 10 chicken nuggets and a large fry for $3. The chicken nuggets had that gooey texture of processed meat and really minimal flavor. I tried them with the bbq sauce which tasted sickly sweet like Krafts. :-P The nuggets at McDonalds are much better. Tossed a fry in my mouth and it was like someone sprinkled salt on my tongue. I tried rubbing the salt off with my finger before eating them but I didn't do a very good job as I'm feeling kinda sick now. The fries I removed enough salt on tasted ok. Freshly fried with crunch and potato flavor. The quality control here is pretty bad. On my first visit the fries were over salted too but not this bad. :-P 9/5/2014 update: Tried the chicken fingers. I'm guessing they were sitting out too long as they were very dry. Upon inspection it was mostly batter covering gooey processed chicken much like the nuggets. Also the flavor was mostly of salt. :-P I also tried the bacon double cheeseburger which I ordered without cheese. Upon arrival there is yellow stuff on the beef patty that looks like cheese. Took me a few minutes and many napkins to remove it. I can't taste the puny bacon pieces. There is a slight beef flavor from the burger. Wish I could give zero stars to this place. read more

Customer service is horrible. Lucy, the manager, should not be in charge of any establishment. Why is there no diversity in the employees in this place anyway? She is rude and incompetent and talks rudely to the employees and I would not eat there again. Food was like warm and we were scared to eat the food. read more

Burger King - Fast Food Near Me - San Diego, California

Decent food quality. Fries are soggy and bland most of the time, but burgers are standard quality. A typical average burger king. If you wanna get something fast and don't want to get hungry soon, grab a burger and nothing will go wrong. Also, they were 24-hour in the past, which means they are pretty much the only restaurant that serves food after midnight. As a college student, I appreciate that. read more

This Burger King isn't fantastic, but it gets by. Usually, the service here is on the poorer side. Despite having a reasonable number of workers, the employees are frequently extraordinarily inefficient. There'll be a line at the cash register, one person working the burgers and fryer, and two people standing around chatting. Honestly, it's quite frustrating when you're there, standing in line, and the employees are just sitting around ignoring the fact that there's more than one register and that there are two sides to the food prep table. The burgers and fries here are disappointing as well. They take the pre-cooked patties, microwave them if they're not warm, then put it together. It's fairly obvious that they don't change the oil in their deep fryers often, as you can smell the oil in the entirety of PC East Ballroom. However, it's fast food, and it's on the UCSD campus. You can't really expect that much. What is a plus is that in the student dollar stretchers, there are always coupons for this burger king. Buy one get one frees, and discounts are all included in there. Also, the $1-2 menu always makes for a nice snack. Link to coupons: http://www.studentdollarstretcher.com/coupons/burger-king read more

When this place first opened, everyone was here. If you want a quick snack on the way to class, this was the place to go. Always felt like crap after eating this though. And I stopped coming here, aside from when I graduated, when they would just stick your wrapped burger in the microwave to pretend like they made you a fresh burger. Who knows where the meat came from or how long it's been sitting out. read more

Went thru drive thru with no one on the inside.. waited 5 minutes and still wouldn't take our order.. don't go to this one..

Food isn't good, but it's fast food so that's not very unexpected. I actually would come here for breakfast since it's open before all the other restaurants in the outlet. I have a 6:45 shift most mornings and when I'm pressed for time to eat breakfast I sometimes just go here. Then the past couple times I have come here they've claimed to say they don't open until 7:00am. Then when I ask why it isn't 6:30am like it usually opens, they just say they're "still getting ready". Get your act together, y'all are adults so show up to work on time. I don't get to ask my boss if we can open a half hour later because I'm not ready yet. It's such a recurring but preventable problem here. read more

Download the app to get discount price on their menu! Girl behind the register should smile more and show off that silver tooth of hers! Staff is not the friendliest but I guess it comes with the territory, especially dealing with these pompous college kids. Overall, it's a meh experienced, but then again you can't beat the price with the app coupons! read more

The cashier Stephanie is super unfriendly. She was the only cashier but standing far away & playing or texting on her phone for longer than 1 min. We said "excuse me" for her attention, then she came with cold face, only said two sentences "what else" and "$10.23" during the ordering. She didn't even look at us, ordering for us in a super disrespectful manner. Not sure if it is because this is Sunday, but this could be the worst service I've ever had at Burger King. read more

Service is not always slow. I would say it's inconsistent, because today I got my food almost instantly, while my friend had to wait another 5+ minutes even though he ordered right after me. Honestly it just really depends on what you order. read more

I don't know about lunch time here, but I stopped here for what I thought would be a quickie before my 7 pm final last Friday. You'd think that half an hour would be plenty of time for one person to order, be served, and consume a tinyass box of chicken nuggets. Not so. Key word is FAST food, people. Nobody goes to Burger King because they serve the yummiest stuff in town. No. It should be like f@cking a virgin. In. Out. The whole ordeal over in a matter of minutes. And you never have to tell anyone you went there. But no. I skidded into my final 3 minutes late, still eating out of a paper bag I had just grabbed from their stupidass counter. To make matters worse, the chicken nuggets weren't even hot. Warm-ish crown-shaped hunks of ground chicken that took 20 minutes to make. Is it in yet? Is it done yet? I've had better. Is that it? I want my money back. What else can I say to hurt your feelings, worst Burger King of life? Never ever again. read more

Dude, okay this is temporary for now. But when it's 12:30 PM in the high-time of lunch rush, you should not just be opening your store, building up a ginormous line of people, with way too many people behind the counter, some of who are counting how many sliced tomatoes there are and some of who are just twiddling their thumbs, AND having the manager walk around and look at the hungry and confused people crowd around the not-yet-open-for-business Burger King. I went over to the very crowded Panda Express instead, got my order, and walked by BK again only to notice that after all that time, they STILL weren't taking anyone's order yet. read more

I must say that this place really sucked when it first opened. Tons of employees just standing around doing nothing, orders taking forever to get filled... totally not worth it. BUT, I've been attending this burger king for a little over a year now, and they have improved a lot. Still a lot of employees, but they work really quickly now. I've never waited over 2 minutes for my food in my past 10 visits, even when it was really busy. As for the food, it's the usual BK stuff. Yea, they microwave their burgers, but I don't mind, I still like their cheeseburgers :) I also really like their french fries and crown shaped chicken tenders. And on a random note, their oreo sundae shake is just their chocolate shake with a bunch of oreos on the bottom. It's pretty good though, but I only say this cuz I really like their chocolate shakes, hehe :) read more

I came here today expecting to eat right before a class and it was a HUGE let down. There wasnt really anything different about this burger king, it was just that I had to wait OVER 20 MINUTES to get my food! does that make sense?!?! Its called fast food for a reason people! i purposely came to campus 35 min early to eat before class but because waiting in line and ordering and waiting for my order took over 25 min, I had to rush and scarf down all my food in 8 min in order for me to get ready and get to class! DONT EVER GO HERE IF YOURE HUNGRY UNLESS YOURE WILLING TO WAIT MORE THAN 15 MINUTES FOR YOUR ORDER! to make things worse, the food did NOT taste any better. Isnt that what someone would expect if the food takes that long to come out? AND to make things worse! the waitress lady gave me attitude when I asked for ranch sauce. The nerve on that lady! I just waited over 20 min to get my food and she tells me to hold on in a little beezy like attitude. ARE YOU KIDDING ME?! OK rant is over. haha just dont dine here if you know whats good for you. read more

This Burger King is established in the UCSD campus. I'm sure the employees have to deal with a lot during finals and what not so quality seems to decreases around that time but fast food is fast food. You get what you paid for. Service is fine. Employees make the food fast. Can't complain too much! read more

I used to work in Price Center East overnight and the only food option, much to my horror, was Burger King. Unless I wanted to starve on my 12 hour shift, I had to buy food from this wretched establishment. Now, I wasn't a big Burger King hater. I didn't think it was half bad...when I only had it once every several months. Now, I despise all Burger Kings because of THIS one. The only plus side is that there was an extremely frail, but very friendly old lady who worked the cashier and the fries were sometimes good. They don't even pretend to not microwave all their burgers. Every time, I have watched them throw my burger in the microwave in plain sight and just squirt on ketchup and mayo and throw on a wilted piece of lettuce. And sometimes, they feel my burger and realize it's not warm enough, so they throw it in the microwave a 2nd time. Being a college student, I'm all about the microwave. But being at Burger King, I'm expecting the flame-broiled patties they always seem to be advertising, not some microwaved patty that I just paid 5 dollars for. I feel sad. Not to mention, sometimes I wait 10+ minutes for my meal. But wait, I only see like 2 people waiting around the counter and 1 person in line. It's not like they're so busy that my order is being held up. By this time, I'm always making a silent note to just pack a meal from home. But of course, I'm stupid, never end up packing that meal, and come to my next late night shift hungry as hell. read more

Really not much to say. It's a Burger King. It tastes like all other Burger Kings. I'll give them credit though - they always get my order right and no matter how many people are waiting,they pump out my food in less than 3 minutes. They may sacrifice a little quality (but again, we're talking about BK, so how much quality do they have to sacrifice?) but they get you in and out in usually less than 5. Which sorta sounds like a couple guys I've dated. Except without the side of ranch. read more

i come here when i feel like getting cheap food while studying it up at geisel, so i usually order the jr whopper and stuff food comes relatively quickly i guess. BUT one time i ordered at like 11pm and there werent many people around. i watched the lady make my whopper jr. she put the bun and patty on a sheet and then freaking put it in the MICROWAVE for a few seconds, took it out, added the other stuff and wrapped it up. wth thats sick came again (against my better judgment) and got a steakhouse mushroom and swiss or something (with the onion straws). MICROWAVED IT! WTF im never eating here again lol and then i came here again for whopper jrs. sigh it sucks to be broke read more

I only come here when I'm starving after a late night at work. I only eat french fries and cheesy tots. My order always comes out correct and piping hot. But whyyyy does it take so long?? I have a half hour break and they just manage to give me my order of ONLY cheesy tots 5 minutes before my break is done. And there's not even a long line! FAST food people! Yay for being open late and serving me deliciously greasy fatty food when I have no other options. But seriously, it shouldn't take so long to dunk something in a deep fryer and shove it in a box. read more

I would rate this is zero if I could. This was the worst fast food experience I have ever had; I was given chicken nuggets that weren't even chicken nuggets. I went to tell the worker that I was not given what I ordered and she asked me to show her my food as proof which was spit out and thrown away. I have worked in a big food corporation for two years and we would never respond in that manner. At subway, we always grant positive resolutions, leaving in many different alternatives such as coupons or double the amount of food for free. I do not recommend such an establishment again given the poor resolution of service and unprofessional workers. read more

I think that it's great that UCSD has a 24 hour joint for students studying all night in the new lounge at Price Center East. Star for that... But I only come to BK for onion rings...and they were really hard and salty. What a bummer. And all I ordered was onion rings...but some reason it took quite a while to get my order. And, I think that the cashier should wrestle in the WWE. The amount of force she used to put the change into my hands...ouch! Have not been here at lunch yet...but sounds like you should avoid it unless you have a lot of free time. read more

I've eaten here several times all due to the fact that it's the only thing available on campus 24/7. What can I say, it's Burger King. I have eaten more Burger King during my time at UCSD than anytime during the rest of my life. What I can say, though, is that I once had some very friendly service. It was 6:30 in the morning and I had pulled an all-nighter and the cashier was very nice and packaged my order himself. For that I give this place half a star more for service. Food: 2/5 Service: 3.5/5 Ambience: Meh. Price Center. Overall: 2.5/5 read more

Meh...what else can you expect from BK. This is the only chain fast food burger restaurant on campus. If you want mediocre food real quick, then this is the place to be. Their prices are lower than other places in the food court, except Subway. read more

straight up it's burger king. the way people in these reviews have never lived a day in there life. like it's not the end of the world if you get the wrong thing. like go work in those peoples shoes. read more

Despite the convenience of being a late night munchie stop, so many things about this place is just bad. The staff here is straight up rude, and I've had a few experiences where the staff has ignored me for a couple of minutes while they just talk to each other. I wish the food quality could make up for it but the burgers and nuggets and whatnot are just bland and literally straight from the microwave sometimes. In my opinion, the fries and onion rings are the only decent things to come out of this place but even then they're not always made well at all. I thought I could expect more but whaddya know it's fast food and it's on campus lmao what surprise is there. read more

I did my fair share of weird, questionable things in college: - Dumb contests with my roommate to see who could stay up the latest - That time when I decided to go sake-bombing and get drunk before my most important final - That time when I did the ________ - All those other times when I did the ________ - During my first year of college, my suitemates and I didn't want to the CSOs to know that we were drinking in our suite, so we decided to shout at the top of our lungs about eating slices of pie aka taking shots (SPOILER: We got caught) - Eat at the Price Center Burger King (OMG NOOOO, THE HORROR!) I used to visit this BK for some cheap grub whenever I had to do large amounts of studying. Probably because this is the only 24 hour food joint on campus, so I had no other choice. And also, something about late nights and dollar menus and broke ass college students... you know what I mean. Wooo, one dolla one dolla make me holla!! I often felt sick after eating the "food" and swore to never come back, but being the masochist that I am, I always faithfully returned to this Burger King and its miserable, LIFESUX4EVER employees. It's all fun and games until your stomach starts to unpleasantly groan and churn... embarrassingly loud enough for the entire world to hear your impending diarrhea. And then your plan to study hard is rudely interrupted by the increasing pressure in your lower abdomen. And you start to panic and sweat a little because you don't want people to think you're experiencing difficult bowel movements (which you are). And you try to cross your legs and sit in awkward positions to alleviate any discomfort. And you're afraid to breathe or talk or laugh for fear of accidentally sharting yourself. And then you tell your friends that you're gonna leave because you're sleepy, but really, you just want to get home so you can sit on your toilet and let it all rush out. (DISCLAIMER: None of this ever happened to me... really) Thanks, Burger King, for many a night when you didn't leave me SATISFRIED (oh snap). Thanks for always trying to publicly humiliate me and destroy any kind of human relations I had; I always knew you were out to ruin my life. You failed, BTW. Props to sweet little ol' Mary, who is most likely an undercover ninja. She was the best employee there, but you can't help wondering why a fragile lady of her age is kicking so much ass at a Burger King in the middle of the night. read more

Fast? Food? Took 20 minutes. Staff was in back. 10 customers waiting on a Norma. Fries weren't even cooked

Came here at 6:15pm today for free whopper offered by t mobile Tuesday, at first the manager said they were still open. Then after I asked her if they accepted my order of free whopper, she said they were going to close soon at 6:30pm so they refused. They should have been wiser to give another reason to refuse! Won't come back! read more
