Another reason I'll never go back to fast food franchises again--$48.00 for a meal! Never again. Jack in the Box used to be my go-to spot growing up for an affordable, quick bite. This visit, though, left me disappointed. While I'll rate this location in the middle, overall it's just a 3-star experience because of the price. Honestly, if it weren't for the EBT program, I don't think this place would even stay in business. The food was over-salted, low quality, and definitely not worth the $48.00 price tag. That sealed it for me--I won't be coming back. read more

I ordered the Bacon breakfast sourdough on 4/3/26 & paid $5.62. I waited 30 minutes in the drive thru lane. The sandwich was made incorrectly. It had ham on it, when it wasn't supposed to. The bread was not toasted or grilled. The bread was soft like when you purchase a loaf from the grocery store. Complete waste of my money! I'm very disappointed! Also, it appeared as if like 1 man was practically working alone on a Friday night. Ridiculous -- hire more employees for the weekends!!!!!!!!! read more

Food is cool it's fast food nothing amazing. After lunch so shouldn't be too busy. Restaurant was clean. Speed could have been faster only reason 3 stars is cause I was greeted and had a proper goodbye and thank you. I came in the lady acknowledged me and said she would be right with me. Then 2 people walked in afterwards used the kiosk while she was still helping the drive thru. I'm like I may as well use the kiosk too. She finally said can I take your order but I was already paying for it using the kiosk. Then both people got their food before me and so did all the people in the drive thru. There has to be a better way. read more

Ordered a single cheeseburger at 5:50 PM on 9/5/25. The cashier must've charged me for the previous order because my three dollar and and change single cheeseburger with extra pickles ended up being $25.36 if the managers could please look at their drive-through at that time they will see me getting the single item and not be amount of food that they charged me for. read more

Improve everything fast food shouldn't take 20 minutes. And to go along with that the store smelled like sewer water. TERRIBLE DO NOT GO HERE! read more

Drive-thru opened at 4:30 AM. I ordered food online at 4:35 to be picked up at 4:50-4:55. I went through the drive thru at 4:55 the screen was black and no one answered when I spoke. I called the restaurant, no answer. I waited there for 30 minutes and nothing. When this store specifically said it's open at 4:30 I expect it to be open. I had already paid for my food online not sure if I will even get a refund back. read more

Served Mix and Match Fries clearly from a previous order. Extremely soggy and clearly been sitting out for many hours.

It's Jack in the Box dude you know what this is. I will say though, not to be all old man cliche, but dang the prices are crazy and all the food got so much smaller. The old dollar massive Jumbo Jack is long long long gone. Bummer. read more

The lady working behind the counter was rude. Walked in this morning for a mobile order and i said hi, and she looked at me as if i was a nuisance. The food is always dependable but the customer service is horrible read more

Ordered 2 of the same breakfast sandwiches around 4:30 am. And our sandwiches both had the same nasty green crap inside the egg. Unacceptable and disgusting. read more

Would give zero if possible. They're always out of at least half of the drinks and EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. I go they mess up my order. Today I had to repeat my order FOUR TIMES over the intercom and in person and they STILL got it wrong. This time they actually charged me for the right stuff but put the wrong side in my bag. The only reason I continue coming here is because I don't want to have to drive 10+ miles for their chicken tenders. My honest recommendation is not to go here at all, 9/10 chance you'll have a bad time. read more

This is the 3rd time I've tried to eat there and it's shut down. Please post on line if you are closing. I just watched 4 cars besides myself drive away. If its because of breaks ...you can't alternate and keep the buisness open? Very disappointed. read more

Jack in the Box - Why is the driveway closed down everytime I try to go eat there? - Fast Food Near Me - Oceanside, California

Overall, for a fast food restaurant I like this place. One of the things that impresses me most is that the owner is always there working the drive-through window, constantly has a smile on her face, remembers my name, and asks me how I'm doing - (perhaps meaning I'm there too much?) haha. In all seriousness, some of the high-end places that I visit just as often do not remember my name, so for her to do so, she definitely has earned my business. read more

Writing again unfortunately. Cause seriously this is insane how many problems one Jack in The Box can have. First it was being unable to make a simple order. Now its I cant even get an order! Doubt the manager knows employees are putting up cones at night to not let people get food, while the employee stands at the window on his phone. Dont get me wrong if theres no orders and no one there, relax. Go on your phone. But to prevent people from coming is not cool. Similar vibe of places saying they close at one time then closing 30 mind early. they read more

Went here for late night hours after a long late night shift to grab dinner. I got my drink for a COMBO but when I went back to kindly ask for French fries I was told I only ordered a sandwich and a drink by a team member who I was only trying to ask for fries ran to her vehicle. And was told to pull in the drive thru that was BLOCKED OFF by a cone. read more

A business deal with Andy H., which turned into a working "lunch" meeting. We needed something quick and easy so we both had decided to dine in and eat greasy tacos, fries and a drink ($6). I don't care how cheap and greasy/oily JB's tacos are, they still make me happy. The fries could have been better. I was mildly disappointed that it wasn't fresh and crispy. I do get a kick out of the new soda machine and how it's all digital with so many choices/flavors! Kudos to having Diet Dr. Pepper. There were no outlets to plug in Andy's laptop, and the booth we wanted was not clean. For it being lunch time, it wasn't very busy. (I have been here where it has been packed and the drive thru is super long.) Quick and easy working lunch, then headed to BevMo to check out the 5 cent wine sale! read more

0/10 for customer service. Rude and blames you when THEY got your order wrong. And they think giving you the receipt makes it right. Like you got the order wrong. Of course the receipt is wrong too like... really? And no toy for the kids meal?! Like ... what a bummer .. my kid has karate right next to this place 3xs a week- would have been nice to frequent it while he was in class.. what a bummer read more

The service is good and the food is good compared to other locations . They are always there anytime I need them . Right management all good !!! Thank you read more

I ordered a burger and a coke I noticed it was only $3.79 however, I did not say anything because he gave me my drink and my burger why would I ask him to charge me more ya know? I drink the soda and it tasted like it had no syrup so I nicely asked him if I could have a root beer instead. He said I didn't charge you for the drink and refused to switch it out. I just left and didn't want to argue because there was no point. I even offered to pay for it after he said he didn't charge me and he still did not change it out. Why would I want a free soda water when I can pay money for a soda that I want? I don't even need to explain why that's ridiculous. I didn't come there because I can't afford a soda. You're a weirdo bro read more

when u go in it smells horrible It smells like pee and It's so bad that I could not eat in there

Usually don't have a problem with this place. Sometimes a bit slow, but nothing too bad. Ordered some sriracha-curly fry burger and was supposed to get fries and some tacos with it in the combo, it even said Sriracha on the receipt. I didn't check until I got home and the order was just completely wrong. Didn't get my tacos, and they gave me the wrong order. Not going back. read more

November 11th 2021 1:48 am. I drive up, a Hispanic woman is rushing to place yellow wet floor signs in the drive through so I cannot drive in. Then she rushes to close and lock the store doors. I park and call the store. She answers and I ask why is the drive through barricaded if it clearly says open 24 hours. She tells me they are on their break and the store will not reopen until 3am. I say all the employees are on their break at the same time for the next hour and fifteen minutes? She says yes. I ask if I call corporate and ask them if this is normal operations protocol will they agree, she says go ahead call them. I ask for her name, she says "Jack in the Box" then says goodbye. Absolutely disgusting behavior. Typical of this location. The male managers during the day are helpful but the majority of the employees are disgruntled and are most likely doing foul things to food to spite patrons. This is the worst behavior I have ever experienced at any establishment in my entire life. The owner should be embarrassed at the quality of staff employed at this store. This woman needs to be reprimanded and terminated from further employment with Jack in the Box. read more

I have to say the food was good , we went through the drive -thru as we had the dog. We parked up outside and after eating, I needed to use the restroom before we headed back home . OMG I was horrified , both restrooms were absolutely disgusting , one had the whole toilet covered in excrement inside and out . The floor wasn't much better . So I went to use the other restroom and it was filthy . The outside of the toilet looked like it hadn't been cleaned for months . I won't be coming back here . Ever ! If their restrooms are worse than public toilets then I dread to think what the cooking /prep area is like . It made me shudder to think I'd just eaten from their kitchen . read more

*Update: Received full refund* I ordered my food to be delivered through the Jack in the Box app and then received a text from Postmates saying my food was delivered but it was not. Every time I called JITB I was told they don't do deliveries so I needed to contact Postmates. None of the numbers I found for Postmates went through nor a text to the driver and I know they have done this to others since they don't show proof they delivered like a photo order was not made through Postmates app. There is a delivery button in the JITB app and my card was charged by JITB including the delivery fee and tip yet manager still insists I need to contact Postmates for refund. read more

I left a review about experience I had here 5 years ago ... I went again right now ...PLEASE SAVE YOURSELF DONT COME HERE !!!!!!! They have one star for a reason go to any Jack in the box but this one... or even eating out of your local trash can would be a better option. read more

They don't use gloves at all !!! all of them are touching the food with their bear hands and cross contaminating, disgusting I don't know how they aren't shut down read more

Terrible. Waited for 20 minutes for 2 cars ahead of me in drive thru. Ridiculous amount of time

Slow service, order was wrong, no napkins, utensils, no effort to make things rights or an apology. Restaurant smells like septic and it's hard to enjoy a meal with the odor of septic contamination. The health department needs to shut down this location, especially with the odor of septic which carries and can spread airborne and waterborne diseases. read more

Came for breakfast in the early AM before work. Was told to drive away or wait 45 minutes over the drive thru mic because they aren't taking anymore orders due to the system. Whatever that means. This is the 3rd time it's happened the first 2 they put "slippery when wet signs" in drive thru lane. All In all they aren't open 24hrs. Stay away from 4am-6am. read more

This is by far the worst experience ever. I work close by, came through the drive through around 1:40pm and the drive thru was not busy at all. I placed an order, two orders of tacos, 2 drinks and chicken nuggets. I did not receive a receipt; had to ask for the sauce I asked for (which I got plenty') and still did not get my whole order. When I got back to work, called numerous times until someone finally answered and the response I got was that's all we forgot!?!?! And told me to come back and hung up. Absolutely not acceptable. read more

I came to the drive thru and ordered a Sriracha burger and asked what non carbonated drinks they had. They worker said "I don't know." I was unsure if maybe she misheard me so I asked again and she once again said she did not know. She did not attempt to try and find out or tell me any of the non carbonated drinks. I order a lemonade and pull up to the window to pay. She hands me my drink and when I take a drink, it's not lemonade, it's a soda. So I politely tell her "I'm sorry, I ordered a lemonade". She rudely takes the cup without apologizing and replaces it with a lemonade. I still say "Thank you" even though she was extremely rude. She doesn't say you're welcome, apologize, or say anything at all. Jack In The Box usually has good food, but unfortunately the bad service they provide here is not worth coming back. read more

I'm a local contractor that works at night on the I-5 project and the SD airport expansion project and stopped by for breakfast at 4:00 AM in the drive thru. Was trying to make an order and the woman taking my order said "we open at 4:30, I can take your order then!" I said I'm staring at a sign that says "OPEN 24 HOURS" she said "what's wrong with you people? We need to eat too!! We'll open at 4:30!!! As tired as I was and not wanting to raise cane and have them spit in my food or something else vulgar, I just went to the window and asked her name!! She was happy to say with pride and attitude "Reyna"!! Need I say more about this Jack in the Box?! read more

Is this place a front for something? How are they still in business? I really wish I'd checked out their reviews before going there. I work retail and I can not believe the people working here still have jobs, it was by far the worst experience I've ever had at a fast food place. They were extremely rude, and they straight up just didn't put any of the toppings on top of my $13 burger. It's literally just a patty with ketchup and a bun, missing everything else. There's a McDonald's like 2 blocks down the street, just go there if you want fast food, that's what I'll be doing from now on. read more

I was super disappointed with my visit today. I ordered a double jack with curly fries and a sprite. But it seemed as if the employee taking my order, Ruben was too high to even listen to what I said because I had to repeat my order 10 times to him. And when I got my food I opened the box that held my burger, not only was there not a second patty for the DOUBLE Jack but the picture on the menu showed that the burger comes with cheese and my burger didn't have that either. read more

This is the worst!!!! I just bit into a piece of some kind of NOT chicken meat. Tasted like an old piece of frozen, raw, non white, not cooked, way over deep fried piece of dog dodo... I HAVE NEVER HAD ANYTHING SO DISGUSTING... Dont know when Jack got so bad, please skip this spot and go somewhere else. I even called to tell them and ofcourse the manager was not available. They were not surprised at all, even after I said this was the worst burger I had ever had! He simply said sorry and thry would make me a new one!!! NO THANK YOU. Never again will I go to this Jack! read more

Don't eat here unless you want to get sick! Observed employees handling money then food and cups improperly with no gloves.
