The food was bomb (it's chik fil a ) and we bought some milkshakes also ... OMFGFF sooo yummy !! read more

Went in for lunch and my cashier Alyssa was the sweetest, absolutely wonderful and went above and beyond. Such a sweet person!

I LOVE Chick Fil-a!!! I've loved Chick Fil-a before it came to California and I'm so glad they did!!! I love fried chicken so naturally I would love them! Since moving, I haven't had a Chick Fil-a close to where I live... Good and bad. But this location is perfect! Not too far and not too close! My favorite things... I love them all... So no particular order, just from the start of the day to the sweet end! 1. Breakfast - the chicken biscuit... I would eat this everyday if I could! I love love love this. Hot buttery biscuit with a thick piece of chicken. Delicious! Or try the minis... Yummy! Don't forget the hash browns! 2. The classic chicken sandwich. Can't beat the classic, basic, simple, and perfectly delicious! 3. The chicken nuggets or the strips. Get extra Chick Fil-a sauce! That's my favorite sauce. On my last visit I decided to mix it up and try the garlic ranch. If you live garlic and ranch then you would love this! Garlicky! 4. Lastly the Cookies and cream hand spun milkshake! I probably shouldn't be having this, but I can't help myself! It's so creamy, rich, refreshing on a hot day... I usually can't resist. Get it! You'll love it as much as I do!!! The staff here is super friendly, always with a smile. I've been here on a Saturday and it's a complete zoo! A ridiculous long line inside and at the drive through. Don't forget they're closed on Sundays! It's so sad when I happen to drive by on a Sunday, but love that they believe in the Sabbath. :) read more

Chick-fil-A - Finger nail in my lemonade - Fast Food Near Me - Santee, California

Went here for dinner tonight. I'm glad they opened one in Santee. We ordered a combo #1 (Chicken sandwich, waffle fries, large Coke), a regular chicken sandwich, a spicy chicken sandwich and a medium waffle fries. Total was just over $16.00. We decided to eat there. You place your order and then hang out for a minute or two and they bring out your food on your tray. Now onto the food......... Chicken Sandwich- An old time classic. Buttered bun, pickles and a fried chicken breast. Their signature item and pretty darn tasty. Spicy Chicken Sandwich- Not too spicy but definitely had a kick. It seemed thinner than the regular one but it was more crispy and had a better texture. I liked it a lot and will get this again. Waffle Fries- Standard waffle fries. Maybe could have been a tad crispier but they were good none the less. Coke- Coke products which is always a plus in my book. For just opening, I think they will do fine. Everyone was really friendly and seemed happy to be working there. There was a little bit of chaos but they had people monitoring the line and making sure everything went as smooth as can be for a grand opening basically. They even handed us two coupons for a free breakfast item on the way out! A chicken biscuit is in order pretty damn soon! I will be back soon enough! read more

I've never eaten at any Chick Fil A, so this was my first. I decided to try their Char-grilled Chicken Club Sandwich which is served with a grilled boneless chicken breast, marinated in their special seasonings, and served on a toasted Golden Wheat bun with dill pickle chips, Provolone cheese, smoked applewood bacon, lettuce and tomatoes. I made it a combo meal with waffle fries and their unsweetened iced tea for $8.19 (http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/chick-fil-a-santee?select=RC8p1of6lUXPHGKf-KTrNg#WJRdAJP2CgJItX9aWYIKJQ) The Chicken Club was pretty good. The chicken was moist with a slightly peppery flavor. I really like the wheat bun because it was fresh, moist, and with a slightly chewy texture. The apple wood bacon was okay. I was there, but hardly noticeable texture and flavor wise. (http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/chick-fil-a-santee?select=RC8p1of6lUXPHGKf-KTrNg#m6xF_oyPHqTfVJ8_XBbJHw) The green leaf lettuce and tomatoes were both fresh and good. I loved the way the nutty provolone cheese melted every so slightly over the chicken breast. (http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/chick-fil-a-santee?select=RC8p1of6lUXPHGKf-KTrNg#NNduyzArbAm-v_XtgC9BWw) Overall, a good grilled chicken club. The waffle fries were good, but they were softer and whiter in color then I am use to. (http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/chick-fil-a-santee?select=RC8p1of6lUXPHGKf-KTrNg#jgUn0Sarft1pVFvvCfkchw) Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed them, but a more golden color and a crispier texture would of been nice. However, I did inquire about they preparation to one of the trainers that was there and she made it clear, that one can asked for them to made extra crispy. Good to know. The service was pretty good. The register employees were up beat, but they made me feel a little rushed. While I was eating, a was asked twice if I wanted a refill of my iced tea which was good by the way, so that was keen, and twice I was asked if I enjoyed my meal. I also tried a sample of their signature chocolate chip cookies and it was great. (http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/chick-fil-a-santee?select=RC8p1of6lUXPHGKf-KTrNg#VzOnoq8T8u33honW9eNhew) It was chewy and the chocolate chips melted in my mouth. Finally, for my first visit, everything was a-okay. I was not wowed by anything, but the food was good. On my next visit, I plan to try out their breakfast. read more

I personally think Chick-fil-A is not that good and I have been disappointed each time I've tried it. on such terms, I prefer to not write a review because my opinion is unwarranted considering Chick-fil-A's popularity. recently I went here and ordered chicken strips but got chicken nuggets instead :( they were okay, I definitely would not get them again though. also, none of the sauces are good. the Chick-Fil-A sauce is just honey mustard lol and the bbq sauce is trash. it's in a nice location and I like the workers here. the first time I came, the girl at the drive thru said "you're welcome" instead of "my pleasure" and it kind of scarred me... lmfao any who, Chick-fil-A? not a fan. read more

Chick-fil-A - chicken nuggets - Fast Food Near Me - Santee, California

Back in March, Chick-fil-A celebrated their 6th year of being in Santee! A lot of things have changed in Santee over the past six years and a lot of chicken has been served, by more than just Chick-fil-A! I know sometimes we joke about the plethora of options we have for fast food dining and poultry options in town, but I am very honored each time I'm around the owner of Santee's Chick-Fil-A, Kyle Steck. Kyle is one of those guys who is the boy next door, grown up! For some of you, he really is the boy next door (as I recently discovered he moved in next to some of my friends in town!). Once taking ownership of the store, Kyle jumped right in and started giving back to our city. His earned himself a reputation of being present and helping at all major community functions, and hosting in-house functions for the whole family. His staff is warm and friendly, just like him, and I am pretty certain his attitude is infectious. Kyle is just the right person to uphold the integrity of the Chick-fil-A way. Make sure to stop by their location sometime soon to congratulate them on their continued success and Santee and enjoy something for me on their menu, as long as it's not on Sunday! read more

This location is probably the most inefficient I've ever been to. EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. I order a salad at this location there is ALWAYS something missing for the salad whether it's the dressing, the toppings, a fork or even a straw for the drink. So inconvenient and just overall aggravating. read more

Sheldon is amazing!!! We went there tonight 5 minutes before closing (I know...rude) BUT Sheldon was SO nice, helpful and made our experience amazing! Such a Great team member! Definitely The best service I've ever had at Chick Fil A! read more

I had one amazing experience. The Positiveness of the crew I placed order with was so nice. The man who gave me my order, was a Manager, he took a moment & asked if I was ok. (He didn't know that I have been battling w a 24 yr daughter who tried to hurt herself, I was so distressed) Anyhow, he took a moment & said it's gonna alright & said prayer helps. I needs to hear that. The lunch was awesome & the Staff looked clean & great attitudes!!!! You guys get a 100% read more

Came to this chick-fil-a because the food is always good and the line goes quick but I'll be coming back because Cassandra made my day! She's taken my order a few times and she has a really good attitude and even joked around with us. read more

Ahh well, I have been here a handful of times and after each time, I wonder why. It's just ok. In fact this last time I got bad heartburn after we each ordered the spicy deluxe combo w/ lemonade. My favorite part of it all was the potatoes. Nothing fancy. Just a different shape. But, not overcooked. Anyway, the spicy chicken is just the same as the regular chicken with a coating of some spicy seasoning added to it. Ok flavor, maybe a bit too salty. The meat is a nice, generously-sized piece of white breast meat. Tastes good. Not greasy. But also not juicy. So it's great for those who like their chicken like that. Don't be intimidated by a long line. Goes faster than you think. They do well expediting orders through two drive ups. And if it's still extra busy, they'll even have guys out there to walk up to the car windows for your order. So, I appreciate how organized and efficient they are. Their public relations are good. But, I'm not sure what gave me bad heartburn. May have been something about the spicy seasoning? (FYI, I luv tons of wasabi w/ my sushi and luv to pile on the chile and sriracha on my pho, etc. so I have no problem w/ eating spicy food.) read more

Don't bother contacting their customer service, you won't hear back. Poor experience followed up by zero customer service makes me not return. The food is great but when you get overcharged and a restaurant refuses to make things right it makes me not return. FYI I contacted their cooperate website and was told 5 business days for a reply, this was the third week on June. Sorry, too many choices to deal with this kinda thing. read more

Major disappointment for this place! Chick-Fil-A has always been a place in which I can count of fresh food, that has all changed! I went here a few weeks ago and my fries were cold and half cook, that I could live with. However, I went here last night and salad was NOT at all what I ordered or ask for. I ordered a Cobb salad and received a southwest salad, the chicken was disgusting. Not sure what is talking place, but I won't be going back for a while. I also tried to contact the store and no one answered, after 15 minutes of trying to contact the store I gave up and of course the the online customer service is not easy. read more

Man! People certainly do love their Chick-Fil-A. Becky and I are not among them. The first time we had Chick-Fil-A was the last time we had Chick-Fil-A. This is food? For real? We heard all the hype. Most of our friends are fans. It's got to be good, right? Wrong. We each ordered a Deluxe sandwich, a Spicy Deluxe sandwich and Waffle Fries to go. We arrived home and opened the bag to find four little sandwiches and the usual sized box of fries. What exactly was it that made these sandwiches "deluxe"? The extremely dry and flavorless, room temperature chicken patty? The oddly squishy bun? Perhaps it was the cheese like substance fresh out of its cellophane wrapper? "Cheese", by the way, that refused to melt at all. We took a bite of each sandwich. We literally could not differentiate between the spicy sandwich and the regular. They tasted exactly the same. Spicy? This drab, tasteless, uninspired sandwich was as spicy as the regular one was deluxe, not at all. Like the cellophane "cheese" on the regular, the pepper jack (if that is truly what it was) refused to melt. I finally doused my sandwich in Tapatio hot sauce to no avail. The fries were mushy. Not crispy at all. They, like the sandwiches, were barely room temperature. It took us three minutes to drive home. There is no excuse for our items not to be piping hot. I have an idea that the food we were served had been sitting for a while. We ate a few bites of each, then tossed the rest. Lesson learned. Thanks, but no thanks, Chick-Fil-A. read more

Love chic-fil-a!! We always do mobile order and park to pick up. Employees are very nice and the food comes out very quick! Only complaint is that they sometimes miss the salad dressings if I ask for an extra packet, so check the dressings before you leave! read more

Great food slow drive thru.... There is even a poster saying "fastest drive through in santee"

I waited years until I finally ordered from Chick-fil-A with a $8 delivery fee. This fast food restaurant is extremely overhyped. I ordered a vanilla milkshake, waffles fries, mac and cheese, and chicken nuggets. The only thing worth consuming was the milkshake. The fries were soft and not good. The Mac and cheese was just basic Mac and cheese to me. I wasn't impressed by it. The chicken nuggets were okay but I wasn't expecting them to be popcorn nuggets. For the price that the nuggets are, they're not worth it. I will never go back here again. read more

There always seems to be something wrong when I go here. This time I get my curb side pick up order home and they forgot to put the sauces in the bag. My bad for not double checking the order I guess. read more

This is the second time I've gone to this location and only because it's the closest to my work but I rather stick with going to the ones by Chula Vista. The drive through was a decent wait time for it being "fastest drive thru". When I started eating my sandwich I notice that the bread was not fresh and felt like they had the bag open from the day before. I ended up just eating the chicken patty and moved on to my nuggets next. I was then disappointed because it felt like the nuggets were either left overs from yesterday or have been sitting out since the morning. You literally couldn't even try squishing the nugget because it was so hard and dry. This experience was a waste of my time and money. read more

Drive thru is horrible, they don't monitor it well. Sitting in line tonight, 10 cars went by in other lane before finally got to order food. I waited almost 25 minutes to get food in total. read more

Every time I come in I am helped by this adorable worker named Fiona. She always serves with a smile and is beyond helpful.
