    PDQ storefront

    Did you know every first Mondays of the month PDQ gives back to Military families. Those with a military ID get 50% off their bill. Thank you PDQ for this!!! It is appreciated so much! PQD is always so delicious! Their spicy tenders are my favorite with creamy garlic and sweet sriracha! Lately, I'm obsessed with their garlic buffalo tenders! Omg, flavor explosion... so good! PDQ always has excellent customer service and the ambiance is great. They have a few tv's around that usually play sports, so that's a plus for us! Pdq is usually our go-to at Raymond James Stadium and Amalie Arena!!

    Solid meal. Saw this place on the way to visit family and was curious about it, so I pulled up Yelp, took a look and decided to try it. The space is open and huge inside. The menu reminds me of a combination of Chick Fil A and Canes in 1. I went with the Chicken Sandwich Meal, no mayo and add Pepperjack. I thought the chicken was tasty and seasoned well. I enjoyed that it had some crispness to it, even though it could have been a bit warmer. The Fries were cooked well, but a tad overseasoned. 1/2 Cut Tea for the drink, bit it was still a little on the sweet side. Feels like this place needs a few adjustments, but in general, not a bad meal at all.

    This is the worse salad I've ever got for PDQ. Not sure if they are cutting back or what.

    Not sure what's going on with their salads but the one I got was not hood at all. Very poor and small portions and the chicken was cold and chewy. Certainly not the quality you expect from a location where people deserve quality.

    Only giving 3 stars because I enjoyed my meal and strawberry lemonade until I saw the bug in my drink

    5 Piece Tenders with a side of fries

    I ordered a 5 Piece Tenders with a side of fries. They have a variety of sauces. I chose the Creamy Garlic. The chicken was tender and juicy and the creamy garlic sauce was the bomb! The associate who waited on me was very polite and accommodating. The restaurant was very clean and organized. This was the first time I tried a PDQ. It reminds me of Canes when I lived in Texas for a bit. I will definitely be back.

    Family meal 12 Tenders $24.99
    Dee R.

    PDQ has a family special right now and a Bogo tender option. I bought the 12 tenders, two sides and a salad meal for $24.99. They let me get 6 grilled and 6 breaded tenders with sauces, they were out of garlic. The broccoli was great, but not mushy and well seasoned, the fries were not hot though and I through most of them away. The salad large enough for my daughter and I to share. The Chicken here has a great flavor so we were happy and we definately got our monies worth.

    Pumpkin Spice Milkshake
    Charlesea S.

    Nice employees, very helpful when asked about menu items through drive through. Very high quality chicken and they pride themselves on that. Their sauces are made in house, my favorite is the creamy garlic! Sweet potato fries are also really good for a fast food restaurant, love that spiced marshmallow dip. It is "spiced" as in a warm, fall "spiced", not the taste of spicy. Only complaint is my Pumpkin Spice Milkshake, which is amazing, had PLENTY of strawberry pulp in it. I'm not sure how the milkshakes are made but I'd assume the machine is not regular cleaned after the previous shake is made... I am glad I am not allergic and only simple dislike strawberry seeds/pulp (or pulp of any sort), but honestly wasted my money because I did not drink it all because of the pulp present. Which is the reason for four stars. **Update: I went back to this same PDQ for the sweet potatoes fries and had the urge to ask how the milkshake machine was clean, etc because I was fighting the urge to get another pumpkin milkshake... but definitely didn't want to waste my money for it to have pulp and other leftovers in it. Coralie, working the window, explained the process to me and was very pleasant. I explained to her how I was hesitant to ask about the process and even order another milkshake after the last experience. She apologized sincerely. Coralie and Paige ensured that they cleaned the machine before they made my Pumpkin Shake and also offer to comp it because of the last experience. Paige and Coralie really did their part as outstanding employees of PDQ. So I feel they deserve at 5 star, instead of the previous 4 star rating.

    This location opened up close to home sometime again and I finally got the opportunity to visit…read more The psychedelic/shrooms decor is awesome. Sat at the bar, the bartender was great dude. He recommended the Holy Shitake pie and we added half of the great white and let me tell you that recommendation was on point. I went again and had the super pepp and the pacific rim and they were awesome too, but the Holy Shitake takes the number 1 right now. We'll be back to try the rest of the combinations for sure! Thumbs up for the cold beer!!!

    Since my last review, I can honestly say this place still rocks. We've been to this Mellow Mushroom…read morenumerous times, and I've tried several calzones--each one has been great. If I had to pick favorites, it would be the Steak & Cheese or my build‑your‑own with cheese, ground beef, pineapple, and onions, or the meat‑lover option calzone...honestly, they're all winners. This time, I went in planning to order The Elevated Cobb, but after walking past all the amazing‑smelling pizza, we changed course and got a medium Mighty Meaty pizza which has mellow red sauce, pepperoni, Italian sausage, honey ham, applewood-smoked bacon, mozzarella.. It was absolutely delicious and totally worth the switch. I can't recommend this place enough--if you're thinking about coming here, do it. You won't be disappointed.

    Stopped in for lunch. It has been a while since I've eaten here because I don't eat pork or beef,…read morebut my SO wanted a Cuban so I figured I'd get a turkey sandwich. Well to my surprise they have added bowls to the menu so I got a chicken bowl and MAN!!!! It's delicious! My SO got a Cuban and he said it was really good.

    Alright y'all, here we go with the official review for Box of Cubans - 10451 Gibsonton Dr…read more First things first -- the customer service? Absolutely loved it The guy at the front was on point the whole time. Even coming in right after the lunch rush, he made sure everything stayed clean and organized while still taking care of customers. That kind of attention to detail does not go unnoticed They were out of the sweet teas (I was hurt a little bit ), but overall the experience was still really good. Now let's get into the food because you already know that's what we're here for The chicken empanadas? Delicious. No complaints. The Cuban sandwich? It was good... but I'm gonna keep it real like I always do. The meat was flavorful, but it could've been more evenly distributed, and it didn't have that crispy bread texture I look for. Overall, it just didn't hit that top-tier level for me. So for this location: 8/10 Still a solid experience, still worth the visit -- but as of right now, the Wesley Chapel location is still holding that 10/10 crown And you already know I'm not done... Valrico, I'm coming next. That's Just How Life Goes... and of course, Just How Food Goes
