This is the 2nd time since August I have picked up an order that wasn't made as I requested. Both times the receipt attached to the bag was correct, the food in the bag was not. Hope things get improve because I really like their food.

Well, it was super busy when I pulled in, and but I did manage to find a parking spot. I parked and headed inside. There was a line at the counter, so I patiently waited my turn. No big deal. Finally it was my turn to be served. I placed my order, customized it (only modified one thing), and then paid for my order. I did request for it to go. I waited and waited. Other orders got called, and I kept waiting. Felt like I waited forever. Lots of other people got their orders. I was trying to be patient. Eventually I looked back on a counter further behind the front counter. I could see a bag with my order number on it. It had been sitting on that back counter for a few minutes. Employees were passing by it, but not bringing it to the front counter and calling the number out. I was about to just walk over to the register and tell the lady who had taken my order that my order back there was ready. Finally she turned toward my bag of food, looked at the order number, and called it out. I walked up to pick up the food. She acted like it was no big deal, didn't apologize for making me wait longer, and that was that. I took my food and headed back to the car. I had a schedule to keep, so I couldn't spend much time checking out my food. I trusted that it was made to their usual quality. I headed out of town. I got a little further down the road, and then opened the bag to start eating some of my fries. I grabbed an undercooked fry from the bag. I then took the whole fry box out of the bag. I realized that about a quarter of all the fries in the box were undercooked. Yuck. Then there were a few overcooked, brown, over-crispy fries in the box too! I was like wow...but I was too far away from the restaurant to bother to drive back and ask for new fries. Then I set the fries down and took out my cheeseburger to start enjoying that. I pulled the wrapper down and started biting into it. The burger itself was not bad, but the bun was burned. Yuck. Overall, this is not the service or quality of food I had expected from there. I should not have to wait excessively for my food when it's already packed and ready, nor should I have food that is not properly cooked. Next time I am passing through Waco, I won't go here for anything. No thanks.
