I've given up on the Wendy's in Dunellon. The employees there seem to truly hate their job and it shows in their 'customer service' and what they try to pass off as edible food (I am normally a big fan of Wendys and in fact, there is a Wendy's in nearby Lecanto that if it were not for the building and the sign out front, I wouldn't know that the Wendy's in Dunellon is part of of the same chain). The Lecanto Wendy's is much, much better and friendlier in my experience. I have also been to other fastfood businesses in Dunellon and in my experience, all of the employees, for the most part, have been much more friendly than the Dunellon Wendy's.
The final straw was my last visit to the Dunellon Wendy's about two weeks ago. There was a woman working the drive thru who could not have been less friendy. She truly seemed to hate her job and people, in general. The tone of her voice was cold, monotone and not once did she say, 'Please', 'thank you' or even make the slightest attempt at smiling. At the time of my visit, they weren't that busy either.
One of the items I ordered was Wendy's lemon garlic 'Saucy Nuggets'. I had asked for extra sauce since the last time I ordered them I couldn't even tell they had sauce on them. Once again, I was highly disappointed with my order as the 'Saucey Nuggets' had a faint garlic aroma but were not 'saucey' by any stretch of the imagination.
To be fair, I did have to pull forward and wait for my order and the male employee who brought it out was all smiles and very friendly. He apologized for the wait and added they were making fresh fries, which I appreciated. However, in my experience there, he was the exception. not the rule.
Of course, this is not my first bad experience at the Dunnellon Wendy's. However, I am a diehard optimist by heart and until now, always believed in giving them one more chance. The woman at the drivethru on this particular visit though, brought my patience to and end. I cannot recommend this particular Wendy's to anyone in good concience, nor shall I be returning to this location again. read more
