"The Colorado Omelette was so good that I forgot to take a picture. I'm not a pancake person but the Cupcake pancake was the best"
"Salad was warm and lettuce was brown, all hot items were ice cold and a side of hash browns was the smallest side I have ever seen for 6.00 plus. Turkey looked nothing like the photo, didn't even recognize that it was turkey. Very angry and disappointed with this order. Never ordering from this restaurant again!!"

"I love Carl's Jr!!! They fill their zucchini chips all the way to the top not like most places where you get half! Their burgers are always fresh!"
"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!"

"They are consistent with paying attention to my modification requests (no onions), which is very appreciated. This time the fries were even still super hot :D"
"I ordered a Egg McMuffin® Meal but received a sausage McMuffin meal. I ordered ketchup and received no ketchup. My favorite breakfast item from McDonald is their orange juice however this one was as if they were out, so they put a little in the cup and added water. It was horrible! The side of bacon was two small pieces of a piece of bacon not even a whole piece. So disappointing!"

"I love you guys ! my order came fast & with care. Instructions followed, not to even begin to tell you how hooked I am on their sourdough bread breakfast sandwich & hands down Dunkin has THE BEST BACON Ever ! FOR REAL! They even let you buy their bacon just as a side it's so good (I've done that lol I have no shame about this ! Their chocolate croissants & the egg bacon & white cheddar are the bomb ( they're small ... street tacos size small but add in some hash browns & a frozen butter pecan Carmel drizzle coffee & that's what I call a perfect meal). Bottom line I continue to be impressed by a large chain in these times especially by delivery take out the standards usually fro significantly but not in this situation....& I am very grateful for that . I will forever be a "
"I feel like I got pranked. The sweet black pepper bacon was a ripoff. don't bother wasting your money on it. Too thin, too small of an amount. Meh 😕. Apple Fritter is normally larger with many pieces of apple throughout. Making uneven chunks of crispy clusters. This was simply a slightly Apple flavor doughnut. Less than Meh 🙁"

The Eggs Benedict were so creamy and tangy and my taste buds are just exploding from all the flavor right now. I also got the pastrami melt which I might have to save for later because it's so big. And although it's a side dish, the sweet potato fries were my favorite part. Whoever cooked this food, man.... I LOVE YOU."
"The Swamis Club was pretty big. Tasted pretty good. Fresh ingredients The fries tho...Ehh No seasoning and they taste sweet as if they fry a sweet or breakfast item in same oil They do come free with the sub tho so I guess if you like the taste, just season at home Overall 4/5 Would order again bc of sandwich size but I'd definitely get a different side like a salad"

"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 ordered the Chorizo Sunrise Egg Sandwich and the bagel was so soft and delicious and easy to bite and did I mention delicious? I will definitly be coming back for more! "
"Highl recommend not getting the Texas Brisket Sandwich from this location. Liteterally less than half of the beef than i have received from the other two locations i visit. I thought the first time was a fluke. After the second time of getting about a 50 cent piece circles worth of beef on the entire bagel, that just not worth it. "
