    What I ordered was the charbroiled chicken sandwich pictured here. The sandwich I got was gross & looked nothing like what I ordered!!
    Dan M.

    The service was terrible, slow, and the food was terrible!! I ordered a chicken Club and they gave me a breaded dry salty chicken sandwich! I will never stop here again!!

    Terrible wait , only 1 car in front of us!
    Yesenia C.

    This is my first and last time ever coming here. While on our way to Bakersfield we stopped here for a quick bite to eat, after all "fast food" should be a quick way to get food right? Think again, at least at this location. From ordering to actually getting our food took close to 20 min! And, there was only 1 car in front of us. Extremely unacceptable! So when hubby was asked if we wanted sauce... he said yes, Ranch. The restaurant manager said " I'm so sorry we are all out of ranch" ok, no biggie... When a different employee came to the window to give us our drinks, hubby asked her if they had ranch and ..... the response was " yes, we do" and gave us a few. What the heck?!? I didn't make a big deal about it. And the food was extremely skimpy, chicken was super thin, they no longer use wheat bread and there was like 1/2 a slice of cheese. For 2 combos total came out to: $24.07! Very bad service, wait times are ridiculous and food quality is not the greatest. There aren't many food options in Gorman but steer clear from this Carl's Jr. drive up about 15 more minutes and grab food in Lebec, a ton of options are available there. Lesson learned! :(

    This place really needs more attention to cleanliness. The dining area was pretty messy, with trash…read moreand food debris all over the floor, the trash area was overflowing, and there were wet spots with caution signs around. The bathrooms were even worse. They were filthy, the trash hadn't been emptied, there was water on the floor around the stalls, and one of the toilets wouldn't even flush. I understand it was Labor Day and they may have been really busy or short-staffed, so I don't want to be too harsh on the employees. But this was beyond the normal mess you'd expect during a rush. It was hard to sit down and enjoy a meal when both the dining area and bathrooms were in that condition. Hopefully this was just an unusually bad day.

    Omg! Terrible. The food tasted like nothing. Just grease! The staff seemed like they had no idea…read morewhat is going on. The order was wrong twice. We were ordering for a family of 4. Two of the chicken sandwiches were wrong, and the burger did not have bacon on it. We went back and then had to leave (no one is just hangin gout in Gormon, they are generally on their way somewhere). I do not expect McDonald's to be a paragon of taste but I expect it to be savory and taste good. The whole point of fast food is fast, tastes good, cheap, and keeps you coming back. Nuggets were cold... how? I thought everything was deep fried. It just kind of ruined my day. I was traveling and already did not feel great. This ruined my day. I felt like a real Grimace.

Right in the middle of a major rush, their entire system went down, and instead of things falling apart, John stepped up and led with professionalism, calmness, and efficiency that honestly exceeded expectations. Despite the outage and unsympathetic patrons orders kept moving, food came out quickly, and the team remained polite, organized, and attentive throughout the entire experience. John handled customers with patience and genuine courtesy while simultaneously coordinating the team and keeping operations running smoothly under pressure. What stood out most was the attitude. No excuses, no frustration directed at customers, just outstanding leadership and work ethic during a difficult situation. The level of service they provided would have been impressive even under ideal conditions. At 11:30 at night under a system failure during a rush, it was extraordinary. John demonstrated leadership qualities well beyond his position and operated at a level fit for management either at Wendy's or any business that requires grace under pressure. Wendy's is lucky to have employees like him. Also the place was exceptionally clean.

I was told they were down at the drive thru she told me 20 minutes. So I came back 30 minutes later and tried ordering and she told me it was down still as I'm watching people eating food after they just ordered. The store is a mess and they are just in the back chatting. Listening to music. Terrible food service experience. If you hate your job that much find a new job.

When we arrived, it was lunchtime, and we noticed a longer-than-usual line. However, the staff behind the counter were doing an excellent job of moving customers through quickly.

My wife, on the other hand, is a big fan of their Double-Double Protein Style. Our order was ready in less than ten minutes.
