I always order curbside, which is effective and efficient through the app on the iPhone. Ordering is intuitive enough, but you have to remember to (1) use the phone not the iPad and (2) take the phone with you so you can tell them which slot you're in. The sandwiches are almost always warm when you get them, and the curbside guys call you by name. On a whim and because my wife was gone playing bunco for the evening, I ordered out. The Bacon Bleu Cheese Burger was on special - order a drink and a side and the burger is free. Four points to make about the Bacon Bleu Cheeseburger: 1. It's huge. 2, it's gigantic. 3. It's frigging large. 4, it's damned good. The patties were large, juicy and warm. And had great beefy flavor. The Bleu cheese was decent and tangy, and the ranch peppercorn dressing was a pleasant addition. Luckily, I live only a few minutes away, so all was acceptable temp when I got home to eat it. It's enough for two meals, so I'll find out tomorrow how it survives the refrigerator. Whataburger sides are always disappointing. Their fries are mediocre for fast food fries, their onion rings are dismal. I'd rank Whataburger above McDonalds and Burger King for almost anything fast food-wise and light years above Dairy Queen, particularly the local one which is atrocious even for a Dairy Queen. That said, we're getting a Mighty Fine and a P Terry's in the near future in a nuclear winter explosion of fast food joints in Drip. So we'll see how the burger ecosphere evolves with the additions.

Slice Street Pizza

We ventured out to Slice Street last weekend, in between a few brewery stops and convinced our…read morefriends to tag along with us. It's located in a shopping center location behind a McDonalds. Immediately, upon arrival, we were greeted by the owner who was very warm and friendly. They had detroit style or NY style pizzas with a decent amount of options. My friends got the NY style supreme and we got the the detroit style NY Omygosh its good style pizza which was essentially pepperoni and ricotta, which are a nice combo of mine and my wife's favorite toppings. Both pizzas were fantastic and different and delicious in their own way. We used their flat iron seasonings which we were all geeking out over while waiting for our pizzas. They were really good and a nice compliment to the pizza and I thought it was cool the owner had a partnership to sell those along with some hot honey too. The owner checked on us several times and probably was the most engaging owner I've met at any restaurant. For drinks, they had craft sodas in their fountain machine and I got the Dr pepper version which was tasty. Pickup seems to be the most efficient approach with not a ton of tables and no public restrooms.

We placed a phone order for a half-and-half pizza and a Caesar salad, and almost everything about…read morethe order was wrong. One half of the pizza was supposed to be pesto with extra pepperoni and jalapeños. The other half was ordered with extra pepperoni, sausage, mushrooms, onions, and jalapeños. Instead, my half arrived with only vegetables, no sausage, no pepperoni, and not even the extra pepperoni we paid for. My husband's half was also missing the jalapeños. To make matters worse, our $13 Caesar salad came without the Caesar dressing. We were also charged for chicken when we ordered it without chicken. When I called to let them know about the mistakes, the employee said she was transferring me to the manager. The person I spoke with did not sound like a manager, she sounded like the young girl who took my order and showed absolutely no concern that our order had been completely messed up. There was no apology, no offer to replace the food, and no offer to refund the items we paid for but never received. We spent over $55 on an order that ended up in the trash. Mistakes happen, but how a business responds is what matters. Unfortunately, the complete lack of customer service was even more disappointing than the food itself. If you're charging customers for extra toppings, make sure they're actually on the pizza. And if you make this many mistakes on one order, your staff should be trained to make it right, not act like it's the customer's problem.
