The food here is always good.Theu have a friendly staff who is always willing to help their customers. They are always clean so their ambiance is welcoming. The reason for 2 star is because of the quality of food portions. There shouldn't be tiny pieces like its old recycled fries.

Yummy Crispy Chicken Strips (4)

I am pleasantly surprised how nice the staff is here. Not really expected for a fast food location. I like Jack in the Box for a typical late night meal, not really to dine inside or anything. No comment on the ambiance other than the staff was really polite! I have to dock this place at least two stars for how slooooowwwwww the drive thru is! 30+ minutes for 4 chicken strips at midnight on a Monday!! Aayyyee Chihuahua! However!!! The portion sizes are HUGE! My chicken strips were monstrous and tasty! The food quality at this location is much better than any other Jack in the Box that I've been to over the years. I'm pretty surprised at how much everything costs (as of lately) ... for fast food ... Yikes! But again, I don't eat fast food much, and the quality and quantity here made it worth it for me. Way to go Jack!

Good burger, good fries, and good company. Easy to order food via the app and had the food ready when we walked in. The service was great in this location! The ambiance is great! They kept the place clean and it was a good experience overall. I like that they sell nuggets for our little ones. The fries here are deliciously crispy and satisfying. The jr. Jumbo jack is also satisfying, honestly didn't know that they made such good burgers here.

Doesn't look very good....and just like you would expect...it wasn't.

Stopped at the drive thru for some super tacos and onion rings! Had four cars in front of me and they still got me through in maybe four minutes!! Food hot and delicious again. I appreciate JIB making everything hot and fresh. Too many places have slipped....not this store...they are on a roll! Parking lot was clean.

A very cool cup.

Today was exceptional, and I'm just calling out the crew today 11/6/23 at 12 noon. We were there just moments after that time and ordered our usual, and an order of onion rings all to be eaten in the car before we headed into Vons. Fry-dude was spot-on with the fryer today. Onion rings and regular fries came out piping hot and both, perfectly crispy. The Jumbo Jack with cheese made me glance down at the freshness of ingredients and the softness of the bun. The tacos were standard; however this time, all components remained in the bag and not on our laps. Today was a good lunch for that kitchen. We'll be back. Always do. OK, that was a little weird because I rarely, if ever I have, written reviews on old-school fast-food places. Dicks

3 days in a row coming here at different times after work. 1st day at 1am 2nd day at 230 and now 3rd day at 4am and they say over the com that they are not taking orders. What is going on it says drive through 24 hrs. Just horrible

Just the platter was in this bag

I came this morning and order the loaded breakfast combo with black coffee. 2 extreme sausage just the sandwich and a breakfast platter. Once the lady gave me my order. Served my coffee first. Hand me the bag with the platter and the paper bag with the sandwich. I noticed I didn't have the hashbrown that came with my order. I then went inside. I believe it was one of the manager that I was talking to. She was rude and unfrofessional. She told me I had only orderer sandwiches. And then I told her. Then why would she give me coffee if I got the combo. She then told me that the drive tru lady put in on my other bag. Which she didn't. This manager decided to believe her employees and justify her mistake by saying I only got sandwiches when I didn't. Never coming back to this location.

In case you need it

Closed in the middle of the day, and it's not the first time. Don't waste the drive unless you check to make sure they are open.

This location routinely screws up the orders. It appears that most of the order takers are high on meth, absolutely no clue what so ever.

Their asada is super juicy with bits of fat and cartilage. Has a nice charcoal taste. The adobada is nicely seasoned and tender with bits of fat. Cabeza was like a super tender and juicy pulled meat. Tripas was super crispy and their quesadillas are super creamy and slightly salty. I've asked before to get tripas and quesadillas more seared and it made a huge difference! They have good red and green salsa. Spicy but not super hot.

I'm giving this place 3 stars for now because my first experience was genuinely great, but my…read moresecond visit was disappointing enough that I almost rated it 2 stars. The first time I visited a few weeks ago, I had a really positive experience. The location was a little hard for me to find, but once I got there, it seemed worth it. I walked in craving a breakfast burrito and was helped by a very nice, slender gentleman at the counter. I asked for a ham, bacon, and sausage breakfast burrito and also requested that it be cut in half. He was friendly, said no problem, and within minutes I had exactly what I ordered. That burrito was delicious. The salsa station was stocked and convenient with self-serve cups readily available, and the atmosphere was nice. The people around me were friendly, and one gentleman even mentioned this was the place that used to be near Peterson's Donuts. Overall, it was a great first impression and I left happy, already planning to come back. Fast forward to today, Saturday, April 25, 2026 around 10:30 AM, and unfortunately, my second experience was the complete opposite. This time there was a young woman working the register, and from the moment I approached, she didn't seem very welcoming. I told her I wanted to order a breakfast burrito but wasn't sure what kind I wanted today. She told me the only options were bacon, egg, cheese and tater tots, or egg and cheese. I politely asked if I could add ham and sausage and pay extra, since that's what I had ordered before. She immediately responded that they "didn't have that type of breakfast burrito." That response confused me because I had literally ordered one there before. I wasn't going to argue, especially because her tone and attitude made me feel like I was bothering her just by asking questions. I then asked if the burrito could be cut in half and never really got a clear response. I also noticed the salsa station no longer had the little self-serve cups available, so I had to ask for those too. The same cashier asked how many I needed, and I said two. A few minutes later, another woman called my name and handed me the burrito. I sat down and realized it wasn't cut in half like I requested. At that point, I had to go back up and ask for a plastic knife and fork just to cut it myself. Which was not a problem or issue for me. I ate half of the burrito, but honestly, it wasn't nearly as good as the first one. The taste was underwhelming, and by the time I left I was just so disappointed. I ended up throwing the other half away after I left. Consistency matters, especially when the first experience set the bar high. The food was great the first time, but the service and quality were lacking the second time around. My honest opinion: if someone is having a bad day, they probably shouldn't be the first face customers interact with at the register. I may update this review depending on how management responds, because I know this place can do better based on my first visit.

This place is great!…read more Wife and I came out on a date night to this local spot we've been trying to come to for months. It was on a Friday night, the place was packed, and difficult to find a spot to park. The line to order was almost out the door, but still fast to get through, and we were quick to choose what we wanted before struggling to find a spot to sit and talk. After about 15 minutes, our order was ready and we got to enjoy our food. We started with the Carne Asada Nachos, Refried Beans on the side. The meat was flavorful, very tender, and plentiful atop a pile of crisp and fresh tortilla chips. The cheese was nice and salty and the sour cream was warm to the point where it drizzled over it all nicely. All in all, it was a very tasty start to the night. The only two issues I had with it were that the guac was a bit overly pureed, making it kind of runny. And the refried beans had a very sour flavor, making me think that they were over the edge of going spoiled. I had to thank my wife's aversion to eating beans, helping us avoid having them spooned on top, which would have ruined this course. I also had an Al Pastor Taco, Craft Coast Style. The whole it was crisped up well, the cheese forming a great crust on the inside of the taco. The meat was sweetly marinaded, flavorful and delicious. On top of it was a good amount of beans, onions, cilantro, and guacamole, making for a good sized taco without any overflowing. It was pretty damn tasty. So, our first trip out here had more highs than lows, resulting in a very positive initial dinner. I'm sure those beans were just a one-off, at least I hope they were. And there's still hope that the guac may have had too much lime or had been overly mixed this time around. A second trip is definitely in the cards, with more of the family to expand what comes to the table.
