Chicken Caesar salad with a rancid straw wrapper

I ordered food to takeout on 6/08/2026 at 11:16 am. After I've already arrived at my home I realized that the restaurant forgot to put chicken on the chicken Caesar salad. I came back later in the afternoon at 5:45 and the manager agreed to remake my order. After already eating some of it I noticed that there was a rancid straw wrapper... literally garbage in my food. The manager agreed to refund my order, but did not offer any other compensation. I recommend skipping this place and eating somewhere else. Absolutely disgusting quality of food and service.

Regular tropi chop

This was a regular tropi-chop they add so much rice and no meat it's supposed to have 6.5oz of chicken this only had 2.3 oz. This place is just not worth it anymore.

I ordered ahead using there app. Two cars in the drive through which moved fast. The employees was friendly. Parking lot was empty and minimal people inside around 6pm. I would return and best part about ordering ahead is they have rewards.

Found hair in food. Also terrible wait times.

It was okay for a burger place Went in cause of the new…read morelocation Place was clean but it's just above Wendy's drive through Give it a try and judge for yourself

Apparently I already reviewed this store, but I wrote the review so I'm doing it again!! Also, why…read moredo I keep going back? Glutton for punishment? Who knows? Maybe I can work that out with my therapist. Me: "Doctor, the people at Culver's just don't seem to care about me very much." Therapist: "It's not just the people at Culver's..." So, I placed an online order for curbside pickup: two double ButterBurger meals and two custards. I pulled into the curbside area, checked in, and waited. To the store's credit, my order came out quickly! Well...it came out of the door quickly. Actually getting it from the door to my car turned out to be a considerably more ambitious undertaking. The team member entrusted with this perilous journey emerged from the restaurant carrying my food and began making his way toward me with all the enthusiasm of a 40-year-old man heading to that doctor's appointment. Guys over 40 know the one. I watched as he approached, slow shuffling step after slow shuffling step, each one bringing him incrementally closer to his destination. Minutes seemed to pass. Seasons may have changed. Civilizations rose and fell. Still, he pressed onward. When he finally drew within about 10 feet of my car, I greeted him with an enthusiastic, "Hey, how are you?" Nothing. Apparently, the journey had already taken a terrible toll on his constitution, leaving him without sufficient reserves for conversation. But he would not be deterred. He soldiered bravely onward, closing those final few feet until, at last, he reached my window. Pheidippides ran from Marathon to Athens to announce the Greek victory and promptly died from the effort. Watching this young man cross the Culver's parking lot, I began to understand how that could happen. At last, our hero extended a bag containing my burgers and now-cold fries, along with a drink carrier containing two custards, a lemonade, and approximately 3/4 of a Diet Root Beer. This raises a separate question: Culver's, why is your root beer so incredibly foamy? More importantly, since I assume this phenomenon has been observed before, why not wait five seconds for the foam to settle and then fill the cup the rest of the way? I ordered a medium Diet Root Beer, not a small Diet Root Beer with a decorative foam hat. But I digress. His mission complete, our weary traveler bade me farewell with a mumbled, "Here you go." And then he turned. Before him stretched the vast expanse of asphalt he had only moments earlier conquered. Somewhere beyond the horizon stood Culver's. Home. Safety. Maybe a chair. And so his return trek began. A modern-day Odysseus, condemned to wander the parking lot in search of Ithaca. I can only assume that somewhere between my car and the front door he encountered a Cyclops, resisted the Sirens, and angered Poseidon, because I didn't have another 20 minutes to stick around and see whether he made it. Maybe Christopher Nolan will make a movie about it. In all seriousness, the food itself was fine except for the fries being cold, and the order was prepared quickly. The problem was the service. The employee who brought it out was extraordinarily slow, completely disengaged, ignored a friendly greeting, and acted as though delivering my order was an almost unbearable imposition. I'm not expecting someone to sprint across the parking lot, sing the Culver's fight song, or greet me with the enthusiasm of a cruise director. But a normal walking pace, a "hello," and the faintest indication that you don't actively resent both your job and the person whose food you're delivering seems like a reasonable baseline for customer service. TL;DR: The kitchen did its job. The curbside employee appeared to have a serious case of the Mondays. I believe you'd get your [synonym for donkey] kicked for saying something like that. The fries were cold, the root beer was 25% atmosphere, and I witnessed a journey worthy of Homer. Two stars for the experience. Five stars for the epic. Yes, I Googled the spelling of Pheidippides! That guy had to have a heck of a time endorsing checks.

Yesterday I placed an order for a McChicken and did the drive through. I think the employees told…read moreme to go to the wrong window and I ended up having to wait maybe five minutes. They gave me the wrong order and also the car behind me had to hand the food bag back to them, so there was a lot of confusion. Eventually I got my McChicken and it was hot and tasty. The ladies who helped me were also nice. Just recommend they check with the customers to make sure they give them the correct food.

I had the worst customer service experience at this location today. I stopped here before work…read morebecause I was craving a hash-brown. Literally ONE hash-brown. I pulled up to order and the drive thru was pretty busy with at least 4 cars in line before me. However, it did not take long for me to reach the call box to place my order. I was greeted by the usual automated service that asks if you want to use the McDonald's app and when I declined, I heard an employees voice who took my order for the one hash brown. Then that employee let me know to drive around. As I drove around to the first window, I noticed that the car in front of me did not stop at the window, but proceeded to pull up to the second window, which is usually for pick up. I waited at the first window where payment is made for a few minutes and realized that no employee was approaching the window, so I assumed maybe they were taking payment and giving out the food at the same window this morning. As I approached the second window where you would pick up food there was a female employee standing there giving me a very nasty look. I was handing her my credit card and stated that I was paying for my order and she again rolled her eyes and told me I needed to go back. Very confused I asked her: "you want me to back up in the drive-thru?" ... I was apprehensive about this because again, it's early in the morning and the drive-thru was just busy. She motioned with her hands for me to back up, which I did, and as I sat the first payment window once again, no employee could be found. I began to blow my horn, which continued to be ignored (At this point I was about to be late for work for a single hands-brown ABSURD!). An employee did not come to the window until a line began to form behind me from people who had just placed orders at the call box. Again, I am handing my card to the employee to make payment and they are looking at me confused. She asked me what my order was AGAIN and I told her that I had ordered one hash brown already at the call box and had pulled back to pay for that hash brown. She took my payment and I proceeded to the second pick up window again. As I approached the window the second time the same female employee with the VERY NASTY attitude, continued to stare with no acknowledgment to me whatsoever. She shoves a bag out the window at me, (which was still the wrong order). To my luck there was a hash-brown in the bag so I just pulled off to avoid further confrontation. I will not be back to this location.

I'm also not big on fast food, but I absolutely love Chick-Fil-a. I made an exception to my normal rule and searched for a location nearby to where we were.

At the pickup window, I explained the situation to a team member and asked to speak with a manager. I explained to Jasmine that I was unaware of the additional scanning requirement and that the app instructed me to ask a team member for assistance if I was unable to scan the order. However, she told me that I would need to go back through the drive-thru line and did not offer further assistance. When I explained that I was a regular customer and asked for help, I was told that I was holding up the line and that the police would be called if I did not move. I also stated that I would contact corporate, to which she responded, "Go ahead." I found this interaction very disappointing and I will not be back.

After seeing all the viral TikTok videos that kept popping up on my feed, I knew the next time I…read morewas in the area, I was finally going to pop my Chicken Salad Chick cherry! As a first timer, I knew I wanted to start my experience with a two scoop meal with two sides. I had a coupon for $5 off an order of $15+. The flavors I ordered included the Olivia's Old South and the Sassy Scotty with broccoli salad and loaded baked potato soup as my sides (I originally asked for the grape salad, but they had ran out for the day). The loaded baked potato soup was AMAZING. This soup was both hearty and flavorful, really making itself a staple to reorder. The broccoli salad was sweet and had the perfect crunch to each bite. With so many chicken salad flavors to try, I knew my first order would only be the tip of the iceberg. Hands down, the Sassy Scotty stole the show for me. It was packed with flavor, seasoned perfectly, and the chunky bacon bits took it completely over the top! The Olivia's Old South was super nostalgic, reminding me of how my best-friend's mother makes her chicken salad. The sweet pickles perfectly complimented the scoop, adding an additional layer of flavor. My only critique is that I would have loved to taste more of the boiled egg. The pickle included with my dish was yummy and I also enjoyed my cookie. I cannot wait to return to sample other flavors off of the menu, and to get my hands on one of those croissant sandwiches.
