One of the cleanest fast food restaurants I've been to. The staff is so friendly especially Alfredo, he is nice and helpful. Great customer service. I was also very impressed with their breakfast menu. Everything was fresh and delicious. I really liked their fountain drink machine.

The store was slow but the workers were busy. I placed order and got cups to get drinks. I waited about 10 minutes for order. I got to car and decided to check it. I was given fries instead of nuggets. So I went back in and they took care of it.

Not bad for a $4 meal. Buy one get one free Junior cheeseburger and a free Junior Frosty with my key tag.

I've been here three or four times now. A friend of mine in Texas kept telling me about the key tag for getting the free Junior frosties and that sounded appealing One Summer approached. Sometimes I've gotten something inexpensive to eat like they're $5 baconator sale for kids meal or buy one get one free and I always get the little Frosty. Not bad for the price even though it's fast food and not top quality, I have enjoyed what I've gotten. I've never tried to drive through, always gone inside and always encountered friendly workers you seem to have good camaraderie going between each other. I only use the restroom once and it was very clean. The restaurant also seems pretty clean.

My Husband and I went here for dinner and as I was eating my food when we got home, there was a dead bee in my cheese fries When I called to talk to them, they were not nice or helpful. They said we could drive all the way back to get another cheese fry... don't go to this location.

Hair with bacon stuck to it

This is a nasty Wendy's I found cooked hair in my burrito and I made a comment to their customer services 2 weeks ago they haven't even offered my money back. The manager there told me to come back and get another hair burrito I think not! They nasty and be very careful with eating any of their food!!!! WISH I COULD GIVE THEM 0 stars!!

The leapt party meal I received.

They'll usually get your order wrong or forget to give you any sauces you ask for. When they're not busy taking half an hour for 2 cars

Every bite was delicious! Of course, we had to get milkshakes to go, and our absolute favorite is the strawberry shake! the death by chocolate one is a close second!!! It's seriously SO good! The food, quality, and overall experience make this place a 10/10 for us. We'll definitely be back again, and I would highly recommend Duke's to anyone looking for a great meal!

Duke's Old Fashioned Onion Burgers has become a pretty popular spot in La Mesa. Every time I've…read moredriven by, there's always a steady stream of people coming in and out, so I figured it was finally time to see what the hype was about. They also rotate fun milkshake specials, and when I visited they had an Apple Pie Milkshake that sounded really good. I just wasn't in the mood for something sweet that day. I kept it simple and ordered the Single Onion Burger ($13.95) with mayo, ketchup, and lettuce, plus an order of the Original Fries ($5.75). The onion burger is made with fresh ground beef that's smashed with onions on the grill, and you can customize it with toppings like lettuce, tomato, pickles, jalapeños, cheese, mustard, and ketchup at no extra charge. Bacon is available for an additional charge. The restaurant itself was really clean, and I appreciated the self-serve condiment station stocked with ketchup, spicy ketchup, ranch, plenty of hot sauces, and to-go containers. The fries ended up being my favorite part of the meal. They're fresh cut and double fried, coming out piping hot with a crispy exterior and fluffy center. The portion was also super generous. They packed so many fries that they were spilling outside of the container into the bag. Paired with the ranch and spicy ketchup, they were honestly worth ordering on their own. The burger was a little more disappointing. The patty was overcooked, which made it pretty dry. You could even tell by the color that it had spent a little too much time on the grill. Since I usually keep my burgers pretty simple, there wasn't much to balance out the dryness, so I found myself dipping almost every bite into extra ketchup and ranch just to add some moisture. I can definitely see why Duke's is a neighborhood favorite, and I still like the concept behind their onion burgers. It just didn't completely satisfy the burger craving I walked in with. I'd come back for the fries without hesitation, and I'd be willing to give the burger another shot hoping I caught them on an off day.

I get the char burger with cheese, fries, fried green beans and a drink makes for a very satisfying lunch. My wife gets the bacon burger without the bun both items were cooked perfectly and were delicious! They had a new passion fruit drink that was new to us but they have the standard fountain drinks. I didn't order it but they had a new double char burger advertised as you walk in. There are kiosks when you enter so they have the technology. There are plenty of indoor tables and outdoor tables. The staff is friendly and the place is clean. The AC was turned on high, I ended up getting our jackets from the car. This is one of my favorite burger places in town. Sorry, In-Out-Out, you are not my first choice unless I'm recovering from the night before. Enjoy!

I went on an adventure trying to find a new lunch spot.  I found this place on Yelp as Janna's…read moreBurgers, Fish, and Fries and the map took me to the Aztec Food Hub.  Using the street address I was taken to Grossmont Center.  The signage indicates this place is called BFF Burgers, Fish and Fries. I was feeling lucky today.  So I ordered my fried fish with onion rings and paid $1 upcharge.  The problem with onion rings is they range from not good to great.  With fries they are usually fine. White fish was fried in a tempura batter infused with herbs.  White fish had a mild flavor and was nice and moist.  Batter was crunchy. Onion rings were mostly crunchy except the batter was too thick so some parts of the batter were not transformed by the frying process into crunchy goodness.   I didn't like the flavor of the herbs in the batter which distracted from the fried onion flavor. Service from the guy in charge was friendly and efficient.  My combo was $12.99 which is a great deal.  I'd order the fish again but not the onion rings.  Doing further research I found they are also listed on Yelp as BFF Burgers, Fish and Fries.  So that's the story on my lunch adventure.

Your locally loved taco shop that's always booming, especially around dinner time. El Azteca Taco…read moreShop keeps it simple. Quick service, fast food, cheap eats. No frills, no thrills, just solid Mexican food. There's a reason it's been a local favorite for over a decade. If the regular menu prices aren't cheap enough, Taco Tuesday makes it cheaper. Who doesn't love mini tacos after a long work day. Especially $2.10 tacos. The plaza has decent parking and even when it's busy, you can usually find a spot. Most of the surrounding businesses are quick stop places, so you will find parking fast. Inside, there's a large menu board and plenty of seating, though most people seem to grab takeout. There's no salsa bar. When you order, the cashier asks how many salsa cups you need and tosses them into your bag. Taco Tuesday offers six meats: adobada, birria, buche, carnitas, cabeza, and pollo. Again, $2.10 (+tax) Up front, I would skip the adobada and birria. On past visits, both came out a bit dry and needed a lot of salsa to bring them back to life. The flavor was there, but texture matters. Everything else is solid, but the real star here is the buche. This is what keeps me coming back. Ever since I tried their buche tacos, I compare every other buche taco to them. It's super tender with a slight crisp on the outside. The flavor is rich without being greasy. The salsa they give pairs perfectly with it and the freshness of cilantro and onion pulls everything together. At $2.10 plus tax per mini taco, it's hard to complain. I will say tortilla consistency can vary. Sometimes it's sturdy, sometimes it breaks easily, and occasionally they double it up BUT the buche makes up for it every time. Now, it's not perfect. This visit, the carne asada missed the mark. Previously, it was tender and juicy. This time it was dry and chewy. Even with pico and guacamole, it was hard to chew. No amount of salsa helped. The horchata was also extremely sweet. It tasted like straight concentrate from a mix, almost overpowering. My four stars are definitely for the Taco Tuesday deal and the quick, friendly service.

How do you rate a restaurant where the food is typically fantastic, but can never seem to get…read moreeverything you ordered into a bag. What if they get the right number of items but incorrect items? Mistakes happen, no doubt. I understand that as well as anyone. They happen at Vallarta a disproportionate amount of the time. Literally more often than not. We've always went back through the order at the window with them just to make sure, and still would find items missing when we got home. I've advised them before that having a sharpie at the packing station to check off against the receipt would probably serve them well. All of this is known, and in and of itself, despite the real frustration one feels when this happens once, much less dozens of times, it would not lead me to updating with a one-star review. What did happen is that, the last time they forgot my order of rather expensive guacamole, we called. The phone rang for sometime before being picked up by a gentleman we believed to be the owner-- clearly a cell phone, and he was not onsite. We told him what had happened. He apologized, like one does, and told us to just let them know the next time we went through the drive-thru and they would replace it. He took our name. That was that. Except it wasn't. When we next went back through the drive-thru, we reminded them of our missed guac, and they refused to honor the owner's promise. Beyond that, they became rude and hostile at the idea. Obviously, we canceled that night's $50+ order and left. We have not been back. We used to go in once or twice a week. Maybe the message was not relayed. Possible. It does seem to me, however, that if your error rate is as high as there's is-- and it's not like they don't know this-- instead of arguing with the guest that has come back to your establishment anyway, you should probably bend over backwards to accommodate them. They used to make up for their horrible order fulfillment with friendly service and pretty darn good food. As the service tent pole fell, so did the tent.
