We've been sat here for over 30 mins and no one has even taken our order. This is absolutely ridiculous. They have to be losing business. The food is usually just ok, but always triple check that order because it's gonna be wrong. They need a change of management or something. We love whataburger but this located is a huge miss. The service is truly horrible it's better to just drive to Ridgeland, MS location or find something else to eat seriously.

Crystal's didn't just miss the mark--they redefined how low the bar can go and still somehow be…read morestepped over. From the moment I walked in, it felt like customer service had been permanently retired, replaced with indifference and outright hostility. The highlight--if you can call it that--was an elderly woman behind the counter, notably missing teeth, who decided it was her personal mission to lecture me. She stood there shaking her finger at me like I was a child, telling me I "expected too much" and that I should be grateful my food came out hot. That's apparently the new gold standard: basic functionality. Not accuracy, not courtesy--just temperature. What made it worse was the complete silence from management. The manager stood there and said absolutely nothing, allowing this tirade to continue unchecked. No intervention, no apology, no attempt to de-escalate--just a passive endorsement of behavior that drives customers away. The assistant manager, to their credit, was polite and seemed genuinely concerned, but clearly had no authority to fix what is obviously a deeply rooted cultural problem. If this is the experience they're comfortable delivering, then it's hard to argue they should stay in business at all. When a place not only fails at the basics but actively disrespects its customers, closing the doors might be the most honest service they could provide.

For 8 PM that would give me 20 minutes to get checked in my room and drive 1/2 mile to pick up the food four minutes tops. I arrived at 8:03 which gave him plenty of time. I went inside, stood in line until the lady at the register that I was here for online order ok over there didn't ask for my name or nothing. People came in made orders picked them up left they were delivering order left and right and at 8:20 PM, I think they could see the frustration on my face because one of the ladies in the back asked me what was the name on my order? I told her and the guy looked up on the shelf along with about five other bags that were sitting there and there was my bag. I took it and left when I got to the car. It was ice cold. These folks don't even try. But as I said, what do you expect? its Jackson, Mississippi, Sunday night and the people just don't care. Sorry Five Guys, your places are normally top-notch, but y'all need a severe house cleaning here. Maybe you can get some people that actually act like they are there to work. The sad part about this is I went to this particular FGs even though I had read the reviews! I thought, nah, can't be that bad. I stand corrected "with a $20 bag of ice cold food."

Only thing for me I got two burgers and fries and drink for me and my sister and it was $40. We got nothing special but the price point is sooooo steep for me. It's good but not that good for $40. Also it wasn't the cleanest when we came. We literally had to wipe down our own table to sit down and eat. Service was just okay too. Cashier wasn't very welcoming which is maybe the reason why I felt $40 was crazy. Who knows. Won't be back anytime soon though.
