I come to this McDonald's waaaay more often than anyone needs to know about. I came here at 4:15 am for reasons that, also, no one needs to know about. GREG is hands down the best McDonald's employee of all time. Stellar service, and definitely the best egg McMuffin I've ever eaten probably ever, not even gonna lie. This is for la Raza. read more

Worst McDonald's I've been to. Never get my food on time. Always greater than 15 minute wait drive through. Second time here. Never coming back. Not even sure if I ll get my food this time. read more

Great to know that this dining room is open until late at night. This place probably gets alot of traffic during the school season. This place was solid, came here for a late night snack and assumed some of the other local places were open as well which they weren't. Staff here wasn't the friendliest, prices here were fair but liked there McChicken deal. Somehow with no traffic in the drive thru this place was swamped with orders. read more

This McDonalds has incredibly rude staff, extremely slow, and they have messed up my order multiple times. I'm finally giving up on them forever. I'll drive further. read more

HORRIBLE ATTITUDES Went to the drive-thru for breakfast/lunch, and I made an honest mistake of saying "McCripsy" instead of "McChicken" and the chick who was taking our order just goes "omg you're fucking kidding." Absolutely unacceptable. I would have been nice, since it was my mistake, but she got an attitude with me so I told her, after she asked rudely if that was all, "yes. it was my mistake. there's no need for the fucking attitude." i've worked in customer service before, and i would be 100% FIRED if i spoke to a customer that way. Will not be going here again, and I hope something is/was done about the attitude of the workers at this SPECIFIC McDonalds. read more

Missing a a burger in my order , they are stupid when they put the orders in the bags

This place is NOT open 24 hours and has not been for quite awhile! It is open until 11pm only.

As always, McDonald's performs as *expected. I dined in which is always faster than this locations drive through. My order was correct and hot. I was able to use the McDonald's app to get a free medium milk shake. *expectations: pretty darn good. read more

An elder woman was in front of me got her food, she said to the cashier that she wanted a medium hot tea not a small can he change it? the cashier asked the lead, which is a heavier, set African-American, male "I say this because I want people to know who I'm talking about" the cashier asked if the lady could have a medium instead and he yelled from the fry area. "No, she get what she paid for." Really loud the lady looked at me and she said "he's very rude" and I agreed with her so I went ahead and bought her another tea.That's not good customer service and that is not the way to talk to people. I have seen him this rude before and who ever is letting him be this way deserves to be fire. Mc Donald's Location forest Ave Des Moines Iowa. read more

I stopped at the location on 86th Street on Easter to get me a soda and a McDouble on the way to family's house so it's understandable they'd be busy. But I went in because the line was long. The staff are nice... Kind of. but it seemed like they ignored the line a little bit and this guy dressed like a girl just kept walking past me for like 8 minutes while I waited to order. They didn't even give me a cup for the drink I ordered they just handed me a burger which by the way was made very slowly although it was fresh and hot. I had to stand there for 5 minutes until they finally got back to me with the cup that should have been handed to me right after ordering. The cup was also the wrong size. I get it McDonald's gets busy but the place is poorly run. It should not take what is expected to be 5 minutes or less 15+ minutes to get me out the door. I ordered the bare minimum. This place has steadily been going downhill for the past year or so. Go eat here at your own discretion. read more

Lovely man working tonight made me a fresh pot of hot coffee at 10:30 pm. The lady at the window was very kind and polite as well. This tired night shift worker appreciates you! read more

I went at 1:30 so I know it's late, whatever. But I order chicken nuggets with ranch, buffalo and barbecue sauce. But whatever sauce did I get barbecue and sweet n sour . Thank God I'm a normal Iowan who has ranch and buffalo in their fridge but really? The labels aren't even the same color... read more

The woman taking orders at the counter was rude when I tried to use the app all she said was I don't know why it won't work sorry obviously not trained well walked away mid order to go do something else read more

I will not be going back to McDonald's until they open 24/7 with a full menu. I showed up to this McDonald's driving through Iowa. They had a Big Mac available on their menu but not a cheeseburger? The burger patties are the exact same? You're telling me you'll sell me a more expensive burger instead of the easier burger? I'm an avid McDonald's customer, 3-4 times a week. I will not be going back until this awful business plan is resolved. read more

The young man at the window was so very respectful order was right and was completed in a timely fashion.

If I could leave 0 stars I would! Both drive thru lanes were open but only had 1 person taking orders for both..but he didnt know how to rotate. He started taking my order, told me to hang on a minute and then went back to the other lane to take 4 cars orders before returning to finish my order . Dont waste your time here. read more

ok I got Yelp just for this. Yesterday I ordered in the drive through, paid, got my drink, and was told to pull forward to wait for my food. I'm waiting maybe 20 minutes at this point when a lady comes out and asks why I'm parked there. I say I'm waiting for my food, she comes back out and tells me I didn't pay. The cashier never gave me a receipt so I pull up my bank app and show the charge. She says it's pending which means it didn't go through. I tell her literally every charge says "pending" for a couple days before it processes, and they gave me my drink for more proof? Ive been waiting 20 minutes now so I'm irritated. She says all I can do is go back inside, order again, and see if it takes me card. Like my card was not the problem, because I PAID THE FIRST TIME and she didn't believe me. So guess what, I did end up getting charged twice and I only got one meal, plus waiting 20 minutes, plus her insinuating I was trying to get food without paying. Obviously someone made a mistake somewhere which is fine, but I'm never going back if a manager treats you like that when you've been waiting so long. read more

Worst ever. 20 mins is NOT fast food. Ridiculous. And then cold food. Unacceptable! Third time in a row. I leave home extra early because I know it will take forever and only reason I still stop is because it's the only place open when I go to work. read more

After my second not so great service experience, I have decided to write a review. It literally took me over 20 minutes to get 20 McNuggets. My previous experience where I waited WELL over 20 minutes , they offered me other things such as an apple pie and an extra 10 piece. This time they not only told me they have customers that will wait over an hour for their food, but made me feel like an idiot for the fact that I had to wait 27 minutes for literally 20 chicken McNuggets. This is a 24 hour chain, which not only will not serve you what you want, but will make you feel as though they do not owe you anything for the fact that they are greatly understaffed, under prepared, not willing to own those things. I love the fact that they're 24hr service, but the juice is not worth the squeeze. Best of luck to you all. read more

Super big fan of this McDonalds because they offer drive thru AND they are open 24 hours! The service is fast but not always friendly. But they make my order the way I like it, so four stars! read more

Never go there after midnight on a Wednesday. I go here frequently and have never received such horrible food and horrible service. Also waited over 20 mins, after paying, with only one car ahead of me. I couldn't even eat the nuggets. They tasted disgusting and weren't even room temp. read more

McDonald's - Took 3 bites. All horribly cold and disgusting. Worst nuggets and service I've ever received at this location. - Burgers Near Me - Des Moines, Iowa

Sat in drive thru for 10 minutes waiting. While about 10 cars went thru the other lanes. 2 cars ahead of me gave up and left. Would like to give it 0 stars but have to give 1. read more

A lot of hate comments, just shuddup and go to another place or i dunno.. cook your own food? Sure its a fast food joint but keep in mind y'all want it 'fresh' so yeah, you gotta wait for 'fresh' y'all are so annoying it's hilarious. Stay mad read more

I'm loving the new online ordering and curbside pickup. I use the McDonald's app way too much, but the deals are just too good.

Dine in is the quickest. Prompt, polite crew members. Clean lobby. There is no play place at this location. This McDonald's seems to attract a lot of Students as it is close to Drake Campus. Uber eats is also connected with this McDonald's and gets orders done for them quickly. Managers are great and Ice cream machines here are rarely promlematic. read more

Worst service I have ever had in my life. I came here at 8:48 and there was no costumers inside. They were working the drive thru. So i order my chicken sandwich with lots of sauces and wait for a cashier to attend me for more than 10min. The cleaning employee asks me what im waiting for. I say a chicken sandwich with sauces. He hands me a chicken sandwich with no sauces. I didnt even pay yet. I ask i have sauces with the order and may i get a water cup. He tells me to tell the cashiers cause he is cleaning. I wait there for 5min and see an employee at the front. Ignores me and starts to eat a bag of chips. I had enough of this so i leave the money at the cashier with my ticket and leave without getting my sauces and free water cup. On my way home i realize he randomly handed me a spicy chicken sandwich.Then they want to get payed $15 an hour for being lazy. All i ordered was a chicken sandwich with sauces and it took me about 20 min to get a spicy chicken sandwich, no sauces and no water. NEVER COME TO THIS MCDONALDS. read more

I've been waiting in this drive thru for 15+ minutes this is ridiculous!!! The lady is rude and doesn't even look at you. I didn't know it took 20 minutes to cook a chicken. Never again am I coming here. Have more than two workers next time maybe ??? read more

Food was perfect and piping hot on a McDonald's craving day. Just as ordered. Ah....junk food

I don't no if I'll ever go back there. They kept skipping our orders and we ended up waiting like 20 mins. And Alain I saw a EMPLOYEE DRINK my strawberry smoothie then another employee told us we had to get pineapple because there was no more strawberries. I'm warning u this place sucks! read more

This mcdonalds advertises as being 24-hours, but that is rarely ever the case. On multiple occasions I have visited this franchise and been deeply disappointed. For instance, yesterday I tried to purchase mcdonalds at around 2am. Closed. Not just the lobby, but also the drive-thru. The entire place was closed. Why? For what reason? Why would you post that you are 24-hours if you are NOT GOING TO BE OPEN FOR 24-HOURS A DAY? That's all. read more

Horrible service waited in line in the drive-through for 17 minutes with no movement finally left. There had to be 20 cars waiting for the entire time absolutely on acceptable! read more

24 hours a day service....its Mcdonalds, we all know it tastes good or why else would it be everywhere? lol

Service was poor, food tasted stale, fries were cold and even the tea was stale. Won't be going to this MC Donald's again

Horrible owner. Always getting orders wrong, because they're always understaffed. Learn how to run an establishment. Great workers, but terribly overworked. read more

Worst experience ever. Nothing but nogs acting like monkeys and fucking up food being slow as fuck past 10PM. Never again.

Just went through the drive thru, after my order not being ready and being asked to pull up, we had the manager threaten us and then talk on the phone as if they were calling the cops. They refused to refund our money, and now I am afraid to eat the food we were given. read more
