"over all solid burger. the Mushroom Swiss Burger was great the macBacon Mac & Cheese Burger for some reason had grilled onions i didnt order. it was still very good. the potato Tater Trio was well cooked smothered in cheese and bacon could have used more cheese. was burned on and made it dry but still tasty. I had also ordered it with chili. truly gluttoness. was so excited until I saw that my 2.50 in chili was 3 tiny sample containers you know the tiny lidded black ones that hold about a quarter size maybe a tea spoon. so my giant side of tater came with three tea spoons of chili. it was not moist either dont know how such a tiny quantity would be. skip the chili it was mid and really didnt have any anyways. that was the only disappointment. otherwise great will call it 4 stars for excellent burgers minus one for tiny chili if it was the dollar add on I get the tiny amount but its 3 bucks so id like at least a ladel hell charge me 5 or 10 I just want a fair portion."

"I was very disappointed in this Jethros…the ribs were horrible….so crusted on the outside you could not bite through the meat. No sauce was sent with any of it….the brisket platter had two small slices…
had Jethros in Iowa City 2 weeks ago and it was fabulous…this was extremely disappointing…..the cake looked terrible like someone had made it at home and slapped some icing in the middle…both the top and bottom were going different directions when delivered…."
"Th Amazing Slow Smoked Wings were amazing. Still very juicy and had a nice crisp. I definitely recommend those with the raspberry habanero sauce. The 1/2 Slab 2 meat dinner was just all right. The ribs were pretty tough and didn't have much flavor. You also don't get much meat out of the 2 you get. The sides are very good tho. Especially the jalapeño cream corn and the baked beans. Over all I wish I would have just got the wings with a couple sides instead of paying for the 1/2 slab dinner."

"Very pleased with my food and the timeliness of deliery. Simple salad was great (added blackened chicken) and the cheese curds are always consistent. Great ranch. "
"The steak "sandwich" is not a sandwich! Yes. it is described as "open-faced". I completely understood that when I ordered. When ordering, it gives you customize options to REMOVE arugula, lettuce, tomato, onion, horseradish sauce, bun, etc. I opted for no arugula or horseradish. (I expected to have lettuce, tomato, and onion). The order came with a few steak BITES in foil (this is good so the bread does not get soggy). However, it was served with this steak in foil and a SMALL piece of sourdough bread. NOTHING else (for $20). I ordered sweet potato fries as the side. It came with the fries and some onion rings. (OK - no big deal). The breaded mushrooms ($14) are overcooked - they look burnt and are inedible! I called the manager - spoke with Adam.
His reply, "the sandwich comes open-faced". I replied, I understand that, but there are no additional toppings - just the few steak bites (about 8 pieces) and a small piece of bread! NOTHING else. He said, "thanks for letting me know - I'll let DoorDash know to update the site to not include the options to customize. Have a good night."
He then hung up. NOTHING else - didn't even try to offer a solution or any type of customer service! I don't know - I have never wrote any type of review like this - but I felt it is important to let others know that this place and the management don't really seem to be concerned about the quality of their food or having any type of repeat customers.
I do not recommend this restaurant, and I hope that upper management or owners realize that the quality of food and customer service needs some serious attention. "

"Wish I got a picture but I just threw it away . Bacon was awfully chewy and hard. Grilled cheese was not toasted fully, just buttered. Arrived wet in the bag. If you have such a simple menu, you gotta have consistency with the items you offer. Been like this the past 2 times I've ordered. Cheesecake? Fire. Sometimes comes with chocolate sauce , sometimes does not."

"Wendy's is going down the tank. I used to work at Wendy's In the mid 2000s and I loved their food, I never got sick of it even though I worked there every day, Now, everything is 3 times more expensive, 1/3 the size it used to be, and less overall quality. I ordered a cobb salad and a crispy chicken sandwich, and was honestly worried it would be too much because I remember how big the Cobb salads were when I prepped them. The crispy chicken sandwich is on a roll bun now and the patty is a flattened nugget. The full price large salad I paid for was not what I got. The salad I received was the same size as the side salads we used to make (about 1/3d the size of the full salad), while being around the same price as what they used to be ($9). And this isn't a one off, its happened twice now I thought the first time was a fluke...the wendys closest to where I live closed, as did most of the wendys in my local areas have been closing and im finally realizing all wendys are just crap now."

"I got the Parrot Isle Jumbo Coconut Shrimp Appetizer, Garlic Linguini Alfredo, Half Dozen Cheddar Bay Biscuits®, and Brownie Overboard®. The shrimp and biscuits are always a hit. The Alfredo needs some more seasoning as it's a little bland. The Brownie overboard was new for me and the way they package it for delivery makes for an amazing eating experience."

"The Big Cheez-It box with the Cheez-It crunchwrap The Cheez-It was completely disintegrated but I feel like it was perfect because it really mixed well with the meat and the cheese it just added to the flavor of the wrap entirely I was a little nervous because I love Cheez-Its but they hit the nail on the head better than when Domino's"
"just ok this time. the Cinnamon Twists were stale and devoid of flavor. the Cheesy Gordita Crunch was fine as was the Cheese Quesadilla . the Loaded Beef Nachos were pretty much perfect. but then came the dud myfavorite childhood memory the Chili Cheese Burrito x2 theycan be amazing if the justput chili and cheese in it but when Ifet 2 folded up tortillas with a tea spoon of fillingfor 4 bucks each. what a disgrace. Just make it like you would want it. I ordered plenty and I get these often sometimes they are the highlight sometimes just empty and this time was just sad. glad I wasnt too hungry I guess"

"Eh, it's not bad but it's not good either. it's very sweet the hot level wasn't even warm. the chicken and potatoes are carelessly cut into large chunks making it taste unbalanced. the curry is liquid and tastes like curry paste in water instead of coconut milk. for this price I wouldn't go here again, instead of eat at Thai kitchen which is much cheaper and much better."

"The sushi is always amazing! The shrimp tempura roll is my favorite. Always fresh."
"The Veggie Spring Rolls and the Spicy Crispy Chicken Wontons were delicious! Hot, fresh, and the wontons were flavorful. The Mongolian Beef Dinner/w rice (I got noodles instead) was pretty bad. It doesn't look like the photo and the beef is chewy and the flavor of the sauce is bad. I don't want to take another bit to describe it better. The noodles were also pretty gross; kind of tasted like an old pan.
If the entree was around $17/18 I don't think it would warrant a review, but for the $30ish I paid, I am pretty bummed how bad it is."

"Delicious love the lentil soup over rice "
"⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5 — Crispy, Flavorful, and Worth Every Dollar
This crispy fried chicken and fries hit way better than I expected. The chicken came out golden, crunchy, and seasoned with those bold, almost foreign-style flavors that make it stand out from the usual spots. Every bite had that perfect mix of crisp on the outside and juicy on the inside.
The fries were fresh, lightly seasoned, and actually tasted like they were cooked to order — not that old, soggy stuff you get at some places. Even the dipping sauce had a rich, savory taste that tied everything together.
Portion-wise, they do not play. You get a solid amount of food for the price, and it feels like you’re getting more than what you paid for. Between the flavor, the crunch, and the generous serving, this meal is definitely worth coming back for."
