Carl’s Jr

Dumpy location. Employees are poor and unfriendly.
Wanted to charge me extra to downgrade my burger. WTF?
Skip this one.

Got an awesome Jalapeño Turkey Burger Tonight~! It was made really well, and had all the ingredients on the burger. (Sometimes you literally get one or two jalapeño one or two small slice of onion etc.) Lots of jalapeño, onion, sauce, lettuce, everthying thats supposed to be on it~! I didnt even need to add ketchup.
Fresh Fries and Great Service~! Will definitely be back.

DO NOT EAT HERE. I visited this place on August 2^nd, 2015. My mom and I wanted to get a quick bite to eat on our way home. This happened to be off the exit near where we were. We went inside and my mom and I ordered a meal each. And then we sat down at a table. My moms food came out maybe 5 mins later, while I sat and waited and waited and waited. Probably about 10 – 15 mins passed before I realized that my mom was almost done with her food, and people that were behind me in line were being served. So I went back up to the counter (had to wait in the line again to even speak with anyone) and told the kid that I never got my food. And some lady rudely walked up and said «oh I think your order probably got deleted» and I was like ummm what?! So I told her to just give me a refund and I will just leave since my mom already ate and I didn’t want to sit there and eat alone after she was done. And the lady said no and yelled back to the Cook to put my meal together really quick. I watched them sloppily slap together a burger in about 10 seconds, wrap it up and throw some fries on a tray and I finally got my food. I went and sat down, irritated, but willing to scarf down my food quickly just to open up the wrapped to the WRONG burger. So I brought the burger back up there and demanded a refund for my entire meal. She said «well where are your French fries and your drink?». She was SO RUDE and NEVER apologized for the inconvenience or anything. I’ve never experienced anything like this at a fast food place. Everyone messes up, but you do not have to be a huge bitch. In the end, I got a little more stern with her and asked for a manager… Got my money back. I do NOT recommend this place. I will not be back. HUGE THUMBS DOWN! Zero stars!

Nvr have I been insulted by the lack of ingredients the rudeness of the manager the way they tried cheating us out of a fresh bun which we paid more for then she burns it says they have no more and tried to atal U.S. A lower form of bun after which we asked for a refund she created a hostile environment for us and continued to yell ha her employees I understand if management es a stressful job but you shouldn’t take ur frustration on the customers by trying to rush them when they haven’t even been ha the counter for 1 min

The food is good but the attitude behind the counter sure leaves a sour taste in your mouth. Don’t know her name (short with dark hair) but you’ll know by the sound of her groans while she’s having to go out of her way to push the bag of food within arms reach of the customer. And God forbid if you request ALL the sauces with your fried snacks. Oh man if looks could kill… My 2 sons can not stand her. They were creeped out and even embarrassed by her behavior and I don’t think they ever want to experience that again. They’re not the only fast food in town.
It’s really a shame to see people that really hate their job and they reason in their narrow minded brains that it’s okay to dump their negative disgusting attitude right in your tasty Famous Star burger. It makes you want to punch em right in the
Whopper!

I work near this Carls Jr location on the night shift so on busy nights when I don’t have time to pack a lunch, I’ll turn to carls jr for a meal. Almost every single time I have purchased a burger from here, I have to reconstruct the whole burger because the staff is incompetent at creating the basic burger without messing it up. The fries I ordered, by the time I drove around the corner back to work, were cold. Telling me they were sitting for quite some time before I ordered. In my fries was a burnt fry that had to have spent an hour boiling in oil and it was actually served to me. I most likely will not return to this facility due to lack of quality control and training to staff. Not to mention the customer service at this business is terrible at best. This owner should be ashamed of what he has produced, a cesspool of bitter, unhappy employees who can’t make a meal proficiently. This meal went right in the trash, thanks Carls Jr for wasting another 10 $ and 30 minutes of my time. Rant over

I’m not sure if I should be embarrassed to say that I REALLY love the fried zucchini at Carl’s Jr. I grew up eating these overly breaded things. There’s *JUST* something about the seasoned breading and the cold ranch dressing for these suckers.
Was driving up north and had the biggest craving for fried zucchini. This location is right off Santa Fe drive exit so it’s pretty easy access in & out. Drive through was easy.
Here’s the trick to ordering ANY fried food at ANY fast food drive thru: ASK FOR THEM TO MAKE IT FRESH (OR FRY A NEW BATCH). If they disgruntingly mumble ‘it’ll take a five minutes’ just say cheerfully ‘no problem, i can wait’ and thank them when you get your order.
I didn’t request the fry fresh during this quick drive thru order as we were in a hurry. But I was lucky enough to get a fresh batch of fried zucchini regardless.
Friend order fried onion rings and wow were they horrible. I swear it had a ⁹⁰⁄₁₀ breading to onion ratio. There was SO much breading and very little onion. Plus the onion rings were over fried and tasted terribly dry.
I asked for extra ranch dressing and they gave me one more which made it a grand total of two ranch dressings. Thanks man. You’d think each order would warrant one dressing. Oh well.

Order was wrong, forgot to put fries and the bean and cheese burrito was shaped like a triangle that was lopsided… bummer!

Crappy service. They screwed up my order twice, the kitchen and eating areas were dirty. Only stopped in because I was in a rush to go to the beach.

We had the Cod Fish sandwich, and aside from the fake blackened taste the missing tarter sauce made the experience unpleasant. Over priced food. I haven’t eaten at a Carls in over 10 years, but was drawn to it with their recent fish sandwich commercial. The sandwhich did not look like the pictures.

What the hell Carl’s Jr. I have to pay 25 cents just to take a pee. What’s up with that?

I’m not entirely sure how we always end up at a Carl’s Jr. drive-​thru window in the wee-​early hours of a weekend morning. I know part of it is my husband’s recent hankering for biscuit-​sandwich creations. I guess that’s about all there is to it.
We hit this Carl’s on our way up to Disneyland this past weekend. When we pulled up to the menu board, we were greeted with, «Wlkmta Cah’s junr, cannah (mumble, mumble) you?»
Honestly, that’s what we heard. We were fairly certain we were being welcomed to the drive-​thru, and asked for our order, so my husband plugged away with his request. «Hi, we’ll take one Sausage, Egg & Cheese biscuit combo with orange juice, and two extra Sausage, Egg & Cheese biscuits, please.»
Silence.
The silence reigned for a good two minutes. Just when he was about to say, «Hello…» she came back with, «You wanted a… what, now?» He repeats the order. She says, «What did you want to drink?» He tells her for the third time. Then she says, «What kind of biscuit combo was that?» Again, he tells her for the third time. Then she repeats the «order» back, leaving off his two extra biscuit sandwiches. He politely tells her that she’d forgotten part of our order.
Silence.
She came back a beat or five later, asking if we wanted any cookies or cheesecake to go with our order. (Never mind the fact it was 7 am!) Hubs declines, and repeats (again) that she hadn’t added part of our order. She asks us *again* what our order was, and once he repeats it to her (for the FIFTH time!) she finally gets it and tells us to pull forward.
The dining room (which we could see from the drive-​thru lane) was empty. There weren’t any cars ahead of us. So, why was she so distracted we had to repeat our order to her five times? No idea.
The food was about what I expected. Their «freshly-​made-​this-​morning» biscuits were crunchy and hard, and fell apart after one bite (which is always fun when you’re in a moving vehicle…)
My biscuit was warm-​ish and fairly sloppily put together. The hash tots were good — better than I had expected them to be, at least. The last time I got these kinds of hash browns, they were super salty. These were more buttery than salty, if a bit colder than they should have been.
All in all, it was okay for needing food in a pinch. Most of the stars I’m docking are because of the horrible drive-​thru experience, though one star is being docked because biscuits should not be soft and flaky, not crunchy and fall-​apart-​y.

What’s not to love about this place. It’s in one of the rougher parts of town — not their problem. It’s always clean, everyone who works there goes out of their way to make sure you are happy.

Not the best Carls Jr.
My food was greasy and the fries tasted old.

The worst Carl’s Jr. Everything was cold and dried out. Don’t ever eat here!

usually stop by for breakfast on the way to work. never been inside but the drive thru are always quick & my food is always fresh and great. :)

Green burrito’s chicken tacos are
!

Carls Jr six dollar burgers are the best burgers out there at a fast food joint. Messy, juicy, loaded with delicious condiments and toppings. What’s not to love about a six dollar burger that you can get from a drive through window ²⁴⁄₇?

When I was a kid after soccer games it was always straight to Carl’s Jr. My dad loved Carl’s a lot for some reason. I remember it being very good. Today, Carl’s has loss it’s touch and I usually only go when I need a bite to eat and I don’t have much time, and close to home. That being said.
They have a pretty good 99 cent menu, which I think is very important when reviewing fast food. A Big Burger and the Spicy Chicken Sandwich are decent in size for a buck. Tasty enough too. TIP: Put some soracho sauce on a spicy chicken. Improves the sandwich ten fold.
My one major gripe with Carls is this: THEY PUT WAY TOO MUCH ICE IN YOUR DRINK IN THE DRIVE THRU!
Every single time. I think it’s corp policy. Make sure to ask for no ice. Because light ice just means half the cup.

I have to do something to keep my mind off things, so I’m writing a Unilocal review. I’m still on Unilocal vacation.
UGH– my review was just deleted! Let’s try this again…
This Carl’s Jr. needs English lessons. After a very long and tiring day, we needed to get some food. We pull up to the drive thru and place our orders.
My dad: «Hi, I’d like the famous star combo with a diet coke.»
Carl’s Jr. employee: «Ok, a western combo. Anything else?»
Dad: «No, a FAMOUS STAR combo.»
Employee: «Ok. Famous star. Anything else?»
Dad: «Yes, two of the fish taco combo # 21 and the enchilada combo # 25″
Employee: „Ok, combo #2 and 25. Anything else?“
Dad: „No, two combo 21 and 25.“
Employee: „Ok, combo #2 and 25. Anything else?“
Dad: „No, two COMBO VEINTE UNOS y VEINTE CINCO“
Employee:» Ok, combo 21 and 25. So a famous star, two fish tacos, and a cheese enchilada.“
So we pull up to pay, and another employee hands us our drinks and asks us to pull over into a parking spot to wait for our food. What? This is a drive thru!!! So we pull into a parking spot and my dad and I go inside to get our food. Then the drive thru lady comes in through the front door with our food. We head out to the car to check, and they forgot my mom’s fish combo. We head back inside, and my dad explains first in English, then in Spanish that they forgot one of the fish combos. We finally get the remaining fish combo. Geesh!
Besides that, this is your typical Carl’s Jr./Green Burrito fast food joint.
