    I haven't been to a checkers in about 10 years, but I remember back then it was pretty good food for cheap. I saw this one just opened up in Durham and figured I would give it a try I wish that I had an exclamation mark the drive-thru line for 24 I actually got my food. Then to add insult to injury the person who handed me the food didn't even give me a straw or a napkins. I ordered the big Buford burger which is a double cheeseburger with lettuce tomato pickle onion ketchup mayo and mustard. It was awful! Seriously it was one of the worst tasting burgers I've had anywhere. Then I tried the fries which you supposedly have won awards for being best fries, I don't know he handed out these awards but they must not have tried any other fries from any other restaurant! These fries are coated in some weird peppery stuff that makes it not taste like a fry! Even the diet coke that I ordered didn't taste good! I definitely will never ever return to checkers again, horrible food and it's not even cheap anymore!

    Good food. Good prices. I'm glad they finally opened one in Durham. I haven't been to a checkers in so long! It never disappoints

    As someone that used to live on the west coast, I was SO excited when Del Taco was announced it was…read morecoming to North Carolina - specifically Durham. It took a few months, but I finally stopped by on my way home from the Raleigh airport and was reunited with the chain. It was late, so we just ordered at the window and ate in the car. I ordered the 8 Layer Veggie Burrito (without sour cream). It's still just as good as I remembered it when I lived in Arizona. There was only one person ahead of us in the drive-thru, so it took maybe about 3 minutes for us to get our food once we ordered. I would consider Del Taco to be a healthier Taco Bell. It's not something I will drive 45 minutes out of my way for, but if it's in a convenient location, I'm all about it.

    We are big Del Taco fans and whenever we visit either NC or CA, we love to stop at one. This one…read morehowever, was not a good visit. When I entered the restaurant, there were two visible employees and neither of them looked at me nor greeted me. If you want your guests to feel valued, greet them with friendliness and a willingness to help them. The layout is overwhelming and difficult to navigate to exactly what you are looking for. The reason no employee was prepared for my arrival is there is a heavy reliance on the kiosk ordering. The kiosks are overwhelming with navigating to what you want and when I just tried to double the order but with some modifications to my wife's preferences, it completely lost half the order. Now lets talk about the quality of this particular location. We ordered the value meal of 2 tacos, 2 burritos, a quesadilla thing, and a drink. We had the crunchy tacos and both of us tasted what must have been some sort of cleaning agent on the taco shell. This is completely unacceptable and since we grabbed it for the road, there was no way to bring this to the employees attention. I am sure other people after us experienced the same thing. But this also speaks to a bigger issue which is the trust in eating from a business that lacks quality control. All in all, we will not come back to this DT and we will take a few extra minutes to evaluate any food we buy from other DTs. I sure hope this message gets back to their corporate offices so they can help this location improve their standards of operation.

Even at 1:30 am, they're friendly, quick and the food delicious! This place sets the mood in the same way Waffle House or any gas station bathroom does - classically janky....though I'll say it has had a facelift since we were last here. We went to another cookout when we touched down and left because it looked too nice and didn't have a wrong sided drive thru! As such, we came back down Nostalgias highway to our OG cookout on Hillsbrough! It was exactly what we wanted! The stand alone, dual drive thru (with walk up) set up of this place is nothing short of amazing. If you had to design a place, it might accidentally turn out like this and you'd just accept it, not realizing the brilliance that is passing food through a passenger window! Seriously, of through the drive thru on the left. The food is such a perfect example of southern burgers - it's like in-n-out that you want to come back to! Cheddar style, steak style, west style - don't matter, it's all boss level! You'd like a burger with sides of corn dog and walking taco? Got it - one of 55 shake options? Done - more hush puppies? On it! The loudspeakers have been improved upon - you used to just pretend you understood what was being said and accept what you received. Now, they repeat it back at least. Our kids scarfed it down so fast we literally went through and ordered a second time, 6 minutes later. Three burgers, nuggets, rings and the equivalent of three pints of ice cream can't be wrong! Aside from my children, I may not love a human child more than this burger joint. It's so good, any time, any days, double stamp it, touch blue make it true, no eraseys! Thanks for living up to the hype 15 years later!

Thank God I asked for mayo so I could put it on the dry chicken. The fries were fresh and hot. They were delicious but the rest of the meal was trash. Why would you give one item fresh and the rest a disaster? Quesadilla burned up and the cheesecake was frozen solid in the center. Overall, a disappointment.
