"It was so delicious. I will ordering it again soon so I can do a review on tiktok. It was flavorful, yet not over powering. Even though the burber was well done, it was still juicy. The cheese was melted perfectly with the right amount of sauce, and mushrooms. The bacon I ordered on the side truly shined on it's own on the burger, but so did everything else. They all worked well. "
"Great new options good portions for the prices and excellent packaging! Awesome service all the way around. Thank you Applebees. I would order again and again"

"What happened to the quality at Carl's? The chicken sandwich was just one thin long tender on a round bun. The Famous, usually a favorite, had soggy lettuce and no flavor. The CA classic was like rubber. The only bright side was the zucchini, which is always delcious. So much money for what amounted to junk quality food!"

"The chicken is so good. The seasoning is tasty, the chicken is crispy on the outside moist on the inside. I love the soft bun, the sauce has some sweetness to even out the spice, coleslaw is crisp & fresh and the pickles are the right amount of tang and crunch. Fries are perfect everytime. The portions are generous, this time I ordered 1 slider with fries and it was the perfect amount. Will be ordering again and again."

"Our food was not only poorly made but it was incredibly overpriced for what we received. We asked for the 20 Wings to be cooked extra crispy and they were just rubbery skin and slimy Hawaiian sauce. Just gross. We ordered a large side of carrots and celery and got 3 thick carrot chunks and 3 pieces of celery for almost $7. Maybe it was just the worst employees working that night but we'll never order from here again."

"I tried a few items from Del Taco and they were solid for a quick meal. The 3 Pc. Crispy Chicken & Fries Box was the standout. The chicken was crunchy on the outside, tender inside, and the fries were hot and seasoned well. It’s a good portion for the price and fills you up without feeling cheap or soggy. The Del Taco is a classic simple but hits when you’re craving fast food. Crunchy shell, seasoned beef, and fresh toppings. Nothing fancy, but reliable. The Real Strawberry Sprite was refreshing and sweet without being overpowering, perfect to balance the food. The Real Strawberry Shake was thick, creamy, and tasted like actual strawberries, not artificial syrup. Overall, I’d recommend these if you want something quick, filling, and affordable. Good value and everything arrived tasting fresh."
"Honestly Del taco your food is good but when i got my order of two chicken Grilled Chicken Taco yall done basically put one tiny scoop of chicken on one side of the taco none on the other side so pls fill the taco fully and thank you:D I appreciate the work but this has happened 4 times now "

"The burrito was a little skimpy but delicious. Skimpy compared to other mexican restaurants version of a carne asada and egg breakfast burrito. But definitely delicious. The chorizo egg and cheese burrito was also very good but small. No complaints whatsoever about the taste or the cost. But the burritos were so small they were flat like a quesadilla. "

"The food was good. I especially liked the Spicy Fried Chicken Sandwich and my son liked the Eureka! American burger. It was apparently very busy and they fogit to give my dasher something I ordered but the dasher was able pick it up and they made it right. Nice staff (especially in light of my hangry phone call). Great customer service!"
"The Lettuce Wraps were packaged in a carton container, the fluid leaked creating an oily mess and likely tampered with the flavor of the juice and chicken wrap over all. It was not a good value either very small amount. The Double Smash burger that my friend got looked really good and packaged well also in a carton container but for this item is reasonable. . I wanted to be healthy with the lettuce wraps but they sucked I should have got the burger."

"Had a wonderful first impression! Pakalolo (Ham, Swiss & Pineapple) was warm and so good! Have no idea what their special sauce or Mayo is but it's delicious. I'm ordering again today. "
"The sandwiches tasted great. I wouldn't say the value is there though. I ordered the AK-47 (French Dip)- the bread was fresh and delicious, there was an abundance of mushrooms (I requested extra) but the portion of beef was ridiculously small. There was more cheese than actual beef on my sandwich. My husband ordered the Kali Mist (Spicy Club) and said the meat portion on his was nearly non existent as well...but plenty of veggies and he said it had a good flavor also. We paid $50 for two sandwiches and picked up since it wasn't far and we could avoid delivery charges...and as good as they were, they weren't $20+/sandwich good. I think for the price there is definitely better value out there so we aren't likely to return."
