I would give a zero if I could. I live in the neighborhood a block away and come here at least once a week to get ice and typically order a meal at the same time.
I am not sure why I keep giving them opportunity after opportunity. Tonight I decided to call and speak with the manager about the visits. I think she said her name was Elsa or Elsie something like that. I was driving so I couldn't write the name down. That did no good. I'll get to this part later.
My experience.....I ordered my meal and ice. The person taking my order was very unfriendly... not sure why I was surprised since this is the way it always is. I pulled up to the window and greeted them, as their typical all they said was the price of what I ordered. No hello, no greeting whatsoever. He was happy to take my money and asked if I wanted a receipt, to which I replied yes please and thank you. Still nothing. I guess killing with kindness doesn't work with everyone. He hands me my bag and walks off like it's done and clears the order as done. Take note that it was just the bag of cold fries and sandwich. No drink and no ice. This is a weekly occurrence mind you. They always hand me my bag, never my drink and never the ice.
A lady comes, as typical around the corner with a bag of ice and hands it to him, I guess he assumed it was mine because I was still sitting there staring at them while they were looking at me periodically to find out why I was still sitting there. No one asked me why I was still sitting there. They just kept staring at me like I was strange. He hands me the ice and walks away again. I stay patiently waiting for my drink while the orders behind me getting cold for no reason other than the lack of organization by the employees.
I continue to sit there while they all three periodically just look at me, but never asked me if I was waiting on something. Finally, I just said do you have the drink? They looked at me, all three of them, and the dude who handed me my other things asked me what drink? I replied with, the drink I ordered with my meal??? So I showed him the receipt, and he again just turns makes the drink and hands it to me.....no words, just nothing.
Now I know that some of you may be saying, well it's fast food what are you expecting??
Here's what I expect, I expect to get great customer service when I Pay for a service from a business. I don't care what kind of business it is, it's a job and it's their job to provide great customer service to their customers. No matter what you get paid, you are getting paid to do a job. I am the customer.
I worked in fast food all through high school, never once was I rude to a customer. Ever!
When I called and spoke with the manager and before I could say much she cut me off and the first thing out of her mouth was.... he didn't take your order so he didn't know what your drink was....ahhhh she knew who I was....why??
Because she was one of the three being silent and robotic. I asked her if she was there, she said yes. I said OK I can see this won't go anywhere, so how about you get me to an owner and she said she left already. I asked her to tell me the name of the owner and I'll call back. Her name is Melissa.
I will be calling back and I will not be going back to this restaurant. I guess I got what I paid for with my $.99 bag of ice!! I will drive the 2 miles to sonic and pay the extra money for better ice and much better customer service!!
Wow just wow! Now after reading all of the reviews, this place is very scary and should be shut down! I also do not see any responses from the owner of this business, so they must not care about their reputation with all of the bad reviews out there. Beware customers! read more
