    Build Your Own Bigger Plate - 1 Full Side

    I ordered a bigger plate with noodlesx2 orange chickenx2 and greens. The greens are in the same container so i have less noodles, chicken, or greens than what i paid for. They also barely cooked the noodles. They are so stiff its hard to grab with a fork. The chicken is rubbery and the greens are undercooked the cabbage is basically raw. Looks good though

    I put in an order online for pickup. The place was fairly clean. I went in at my pickup time and the food was not ready. It was dinner time so I figured they were busy but I did let the cashier know I'm here for my pickup order and it wasn't at the pickup area. I waited total of 15 minutes for my food to be ready. When I finally did get my order, the cashier girl wasn't even apologetic or even kind. It really annoyed me that the workers kept working on walk-in customer's food instead of mine. When I got home and looked at my food, it looked like they forgot to finish up my bowl; there wasn't enough angus black pepper steak in comparison to the rice. The food tasted decent though.

    We stopped by this Panda Express for a quick lunch on a road trip (to also pick-up Starbucks a few stores down). I would say it was a typical Panda Express -- quick service, well-stocked entree items, sizable portions, and clean bathroom. Nothing extraordinary, but the items were well battered, appropriate temperature, and salty as expected. I would have liked a little more walnut shrimp as it required a surcharge.

    This is a great Panda Express location. Always quick and friendly service. Very clean and efficient staff, the food is always fresh

    Look at how miniature this is. Ridiculous!

    BEYOND pissed. Ordered 3 small entrees on Grubhub which was $16, thinking I'm about to get a whole bunch of food, and instead I got bite sized boxes which qualify more as a snack. How is each of these $5??? Then when I complained, the cashier at the front was going to accommodate me and give me something else, but then the managers refused and said I have to stick with it. Usually when you complain about food at a restaurant they accommodate you. It's not like I ate the food and came back with the empty boxes asking for more food for free. I even offered to pay for the difference in ordering something else, but no, they said I had to keep it and call Grubhub is I wanted a refund. I didn't want a refund, I just wanted a sensible amount of food that a grown adult would eat! The managers should have understood that the same way the cashier understood. Panda Express there should be no reason why this Polly Pocket, Wish App sized box of food would cost $5 vs a full plate of food for $8. These miniature boxes are almost the same amount of food that they give you with the plate and 2 entrees, which makes no sense at all. You really need to disclose that a "small entree" means bite sized on your website. So in all this, NEVER ORDER THE SMALL ENTREE unless you just want a "sample"... Cuz that's what you're going to get. And also Panda you need to revise your pricing structure or increase the size of the boxes.

    I've been to this location many times in my travels. I usually come before my flights out of bwi because of it's close proximity to the airport. I wouldn't say it's my favorite place in the world, but it's consistent and clean. I've done work and met people here for meetings and they have a counter with outlets which is a plus. I have used the WiFi from other companies in this plaza while working so it's a good place to get things done.

However, the prior P is for Playa Bowl in Baltimore County was in Q is for Quarry Lake, so the location coincidentally started with Q.

First was Towson in early 2023 I think, then Gambrills in Sept. 2023 (went on their 2nd day; see my 5-star of them), and then Columbia in early 2024 I think. The first time I visited the Columbia location was in March 2024, where I redeemed a green leprechaun lemonade, but I had already eaten or had other dinner plans. My first visit to get food was in July 2024. This was my girlfriend's first time at Raising Cane's. She loved it as did I per the other times I had in the past including the first time trying them in AZ in mid 2010's. I visited Cane's Columbia a couple of other times in the past two years. Always great chicken strips, fries, & Texas toast. I'm not a big coleslaw person, but I like theirs ok. I normally get half sweet/half unsweet tea, which is delicious freshly brewed. It's often busy, but staff is cordial, and pretty organized and efficient.

Let me start with the wings because... wow. I've been on a mission to find a honey lemon pepper wing that actually has flavor, and these finally hit the mark. Sweet, tangy, peppery, and bold -- not that faint "maybe there's lemon in here" situation most places give. These had real personality. The smash burger was another surprise. I don't eat cheese, so I was a little intimidated ordering a smash burger without it, but no cheese, no problem. The meat itself tasted different -- richer, cleaner, and higher quality than your typical burger spot. The edges had that perfect crispy smash, and the inside stayed juicy. When the meat is that good, you don't need anything extra. Service was quick, ambiance was fitting and the food came out hot, and everything looked good enough that I had to grab pics before diving in. This spot is definitely going into my rotation.

After parking my car, I found the premises to be clean, well maintained, and pleasant. As I approached the building, I could see that the drive-thru was busy, but it seemed to be operating efficiently. Shortly after entering, I could also see that there were several customers here inside enjoying their meal. It was clean and well maintained inside as well. I was immediately greeted by one of the Chick-fil-A employees while I entered. As I approached the counter, I was once again greeted by a different Chick-fil-A employee who was working the register. His name was Douglas. While I was placing my order, I noticed something neat that he was wearing and I complimented him on it. We then engaged in a little small talk, and we had a pleasant conversation. So, I don't know how other folks feel, but from my experience I've noticed that most of the employees at every Chick-fil-A have a higher level of professionalism and friendliness than is typical at most other fast food restaurants. I have also found that they provide good old-fashioned face-to-face customer service, instead of just adding a bunch of stupid (impersonal) kiosks like several other fast-food establishments have recently done. These are just two of the reasons that Chick-fil-A will continue to be a successful business. Several other fast food establishments have just not mastered customer service the way that Chick-fil-A has, in my opinion. Employees like Douglas are one of the main reasons I keep coming back. He was awesome. Finally, I've always enjoyed the food at Chick-fil-A, and this location was no different. Not only is the chicken really delicious, but I'm also happy that Chick-fil-A is willing to let me have a bunch of sauces to go along with my meal without being annoying by charging me extra for them (like McDonald's typically does). I highly recommend this business because they provide excellent food in a pleasant environment while having professional and friendly employees. That's a well-earned five-star rating from my perspective.

Upon entering, we were met with graffiti inspired artwork on the walls, which was cool. We perused the menu and decided to order. They have different levels of spice for your chicken and decided on an order that was mild (2 sandwich meal) , medium, (2 sandwich meal) and extra hot (I was warned by my daughter to rethink this option, but, alas, I did not heed her warning; 1 tender 1 sandwich meal). They had the spiciest level, reaper, which you have to sign a waiver to purchase, I wasn't that crazy y'all... Food delivery service was available and they had an LED board with which ones each order was under. The service was great with the associates very pleasant at the counter. We also ordered a fruit punch slushy, but it was TOO sweet for me and I couldn't finish it. If you love sweet drinks, this would be the one for you! We were given a buzzer and we didn't wait long for our order to be ready. The orders were accompanied by crinkle cut fries (we got cheese on ours for an extra cost) along with a small container of coleslaw, pickle slices, and Dave's Sauce. The fries were good with that cheese sauce: fresh, crispy, not greasy and the sauce tasting like real cheese. Now....I pride myself on enjoying a good hot spiced item from time to time... but my extra hot tender was not to be played with. I bit into that crispy tender and instantly knew I indeed "bit off more than I could chew!" It was as if that hot spiced item shot through my whole body and I was heated on the inside for about a couple of minutes. I say that to say, if you are not into spicy SPICY, don't go above medium. So glad I chose a medium spice sandwich (yes, you can get different spice levels in your order) because that saved me. The chicken was fresh, with a crispy coating on a fresh bun with Dave's sauce. The pickles were fresh and crisp (my go-to to put out that heat from that extra hot chicken tender!), the coleslaw was fresh and ok. I really don't like sauces like the Dave's sauce on my food, so the next time I will get my sandwich without it. All in all, a nice place for a good chicken sandwich, especially with the cheese fries! Epilogue: I saved the rest of that extra hot tender to eat the next day hoping the spice level had dissipated...but no...it seems as if it intensified...but I still ate it...maybe I'm used to that spice level now...

As I approached this Taco Bell, I found the premises to be well kept and the signage was well illuminated. There were no other cars in the drive thru when I arrived. I had a simple order: Three regular tacos and a large Starry. The order was ready fairly quick, with no complications. But now, here's my frustration: When I was a little boy, I was taught good manners, especially saying "please" and "thank you." Later, when I was a teenager, this knowledge was reinforced by my employers while I worked in the fast food industry. All my bosses would always say to "show your appreciation to the customers by thanking them for their business. This helps our business stay alive, and it means you'll have a job." It seems to me that a high percentage of kids in Generation Z missed out on this fundamental knowledge, and I experienced this here at this Taco Bell. It's a reflex for me though; when the cashier handed me my items I said "thank you" to her. In response, all I got was a blank stare. No "have a good night," no "come again," and certainly no "thank you for your business." In short, this Taco Bell location is well kept, and my meal was good. But this Taco Bell, just like a lot of other fast food businesses, need to train their employees to be polite and pleasant. It should be a natural thing for everyone, especially for anyone working in customer service.
