We have plenty of eateries in W-S offering Mexican cuisine or Mexican-influnced foods, and I think…read morethat contributed to my reluctance to visit Taco Mama until recently. While not all of our local options are great, we have a reasonably large number of options that are good enough to make them regular stops for me. Taco Mama is not going to be on that list, I'm afraid, based on my experience thus far. The facility itself seems fine, though the ambient noise level was rather loud (likely influenced by all the metal and concrete). But the food, the feel, the service and the value just don't compete well with all those other places we have to choose from. The unhelpful attitude of the clerk taking my order didn't start things out well; she seemed genuinely annoyed about being there, and that attitude carried over into her tone when answering my questions or prompting me for info she needed. Also on the service side of things, I had to stop the waitress from throwing away my food -- a plate over half full -- after I'd walked not more than ten steps away to refill my drink. [She apologized, but only after I had to confront her twice; still don't understand why "don't throw that away!" could have been confusing.] The burrito and beans I ordered were edible, but so bland that I might as well have been eating packing materials. The accompanying chips were warm, but the cup of salsa was quite possibly the least appealing salsa I've ever been served in a restaurant. I've had Taco Bell food I've enjoyed more than this. And yet I had forked over almost $20 for such a disappointment. Maybe it was an off-day. Maybe the tacos are the way to go here instead. But I don't think they offered even a hint of a reason for me to try Taco Mama again any time soon.

I don't go to Chick-fil-a as often as I do other fried chicken chains or as often as I did when…read morethis restaurant was king of the chicken sandwich. The reasons are it is often crowded and ordering becomes a hassle in their drive-thru, the chicken sandwich is the smallest of all chains, and I prefer the sandwiches at KFC, Popeye's, Bo Jangles, and even Church's, and Culver's has a nice sandwich. Since Popeyes threw down the gauntlet in Aug 2019 with the introduction of their now famous chicken sandwich, all the national and regional chains now offer their version, as do many local restaurants - check out the BYO at Bad Daddy's, the hot chicken at Bossy Beulah's, the fried chicken at Alex's in Lewisville, and there are even more! I know Chick-fil-A is still very popular, the drive-thru lines attest to that, but CFA has slipped in the national popularity area, usually listed as definitely behind Popeye's & KFC, and being pressured by Raisin' Caine's and perhaps others. I popped in here because it was off prime time, customer traffic was light, and I was a bit hungry. I ordered the Spicy Deluxe and it was quickly out. This is a decent sandwich, and I enjoyed it, but it in no way changes my view about which chicken sandwiches I prefer.

Today I got the Mac & cheese, one thing I like about their Mac and cheese is that they always make sure you have a clump of that chewy cheese from the top of the pan The only downside I have found to this location is that the area traffic can make it a little difficult to get in and out, depending on the time of day. I do tend to avoid it when Sam's Club/Hanes Mall Blvd. is busy, for that reason, but that's not the restaurant's fault.

I finally found one that hit the mark on both Service and Food. I have to give a huge shoutout to Aaron! He took the order as we went through the drive thru and he made sure everything was right when we got to the window. He had a great personality and did a great job. He gave us options on things we asked. When I asked for Ketchup he gave me regular and said "try this it's our spicy ketchup" We ordered onion rings and he gave another sauce and said, "this is our favorite that most people love" Hope Aaron is a sign of this Whataburger doing things right. GOOD JOB!

I ordered the Little Cheeseburger ($8.79). This is a nice burger, but like everything here, it is a bit pricey - this burger is single patty of sirloin and chuck, approximately 3.3 ounces - appx $2.66 per ounce! For comparison purposes: The Cheeseburger at Nick's Old Fashion is 5.3 ounces and goes for $6.30 - appx $1.19 per ounce! The Cheeseburger at Alex's in Lewisville is a 6 ounce Patty for $10.45 with a side - appx $1.57 per ounce! Five Guys makes a pretty good burger, but no better than the two mentioned above. Maybe the unlimited toppings and free peanuts at Five Guys are worth the difference - but my question is an old one "Where's The Beef?" Ambiance - 3.5 Food - 4 Service - 4 Value - 2.5

A few minutes later she came by and asked us to tell her what we ordered so she could check on it. Seems she threw away the paper order slip she had written it on. Sorry, I didn't believe her. I asked for the bill for the sodas and said we were leaving. She apologized and said there was no charge for the drinks. She wanted to put the order in again but at that point we were too hungry to wait. And her apologies didn't cut it for me. You lost a customer Bad Daddy's on Hanes Mall Blvd in Winston Salem NC.

This North Carolina based fast food chain has been around for over 35 years now, and has grown to…read moreover 100 locations. The menu is primarily hamburgers, hot dogs, chicken sandwiches, NC style BBQ, and of course, milk shakes. Until recently there were no spots that had any inside seating, but this is gradually changing. They are known for the small building with drive thru lanes on both sides, and this plus the congestion surrounding many of their locations can make getting in and out a challenge, though this one in not as bad as many! The burgers and chicken sandwiches here are far superior to the offerings of any national chain l, with the possible exception of a properly staffed and operating Culver's - the one in Winston is not one of those, the one in Kernersville most certainly is. The number of locals spots that rival the offerings here is very small. I ordered each of my favorite items here - Bacon Cheeseburger and the Crispy, Spicy Fried Chicken Sandwich. The time in line here are generally a bit longer than the larger chains, but still around 10 minutes. The burger was excellent and well sized as alway, these folks just know how to make a great burger. And the crispy, spicy chicken sandwich is as good as anyone's, including the cult one at Popeyes! Only the BYO at Bad Daddy's is possibly a bit better, and definitely is bigger! I have found the food at Cook Out locations to be consistently excellent with very few bad experiences.

And as for a double curse, at most of these spots, the prices go up as the portions tail off. I have found Jason's to be flying against these trends, consistently providing stable value and consistent flavor from a menu that is large and varied - with their full salad bar providing one of the very best values at any restaurant, national or local. On this visit, I was again picking up several items for a small family group. We chose fully loaded containers from the salad bar, a bow of chili, and a full sized Reuben sandwich. Once home, we split the items up for all to enjoy - nothing disappointed! This was a first try with the chili, and it was quite nice - plenty of well seasoned ground beef, no beans or onions, but was well topped with cheddar cheese! The Reuben contained 8 ounces of hot, tasty corned beef, great cheese, plenty of kraut, marble rye, and lots of 1000 Island Dressing. It was cut into the required pieces, and the additional dressing was shared - a bit messy but delicious in total. The center piece was the large amount of variety in the salad, and when well covered in the dressing this was great - not especially healthy with the amount of dressing I added! I'll be back soon as I noticed they are offering Beef Stew for a while - gotta try that.

The hand breaded chicken fillet is probably between 6 and 7 ounces. It comes on a toasted potato bun, several pickle slices and the signature Zax sauce. This is a good chicken sandwich, but it is not in the class of KFC, or even Popeye's or Culver's - closer to McDonald's or Burger King. The chicken is nicely breaded, well fried. But the rest of the sandwich - sauce, bun, and pickle are average or less. I would rate this sandwich in the middle of the pack of national fast food chains.
