Wendy’s

Outstanding service from Dorothy and the crew at 290/​Bingle Wendy’s. Made as feel welcome and even gave my kiddos a complimentary frosty for being well behaved in the restaurant.
Spicy Chicken asiago club sandwich is killer as well.

A came here because I was craving the new Pretzel Bacon Cheeseburger. I went through the Drive thru and the first thought I had was this Wendy’s should not be here. It is right on the corner almost on the street. It is just a weird location to be at.
I made my order and the employee had a really heavy hispanic accent and I tried to understand him, but it was difficult because the speaker on the intercome was breaking in and out a little. I had to repeat my order two times so he can understand me, and I told the guy that I speak spanish. He didn’t speak to me in spanish he said it is okay just pull up to the window. When I got to the window he repeated my order to make sure it was right. It was difficult to understand him, but I figured it out. I am not dissing my people, but it is important to have someone in the drive thru where people can understand. He was friendly and everything, but he does not need to be in drive thru he can do something else. And plus he looked uncomfortable being there anyway.
The Pretzel bacon Cheeseburger was not that good, the pretzel was too dry and they didn’t put that much cheese in it. So I won’t be trying the Pretzel Bacon Cheese burger anymore. But I always enjoy their fries.
Happy Unilocaling!

I don’t normally fall for the ad banners on Myspace, but I fell for this one. The ad said to click on the button to CALL a local Wendy’s to reserve a table. I was like no-way…VOIP from a ad… This I got to try. *CLICK*
Seconds later it proceeds to «call.» A voice comes on, obviously not a real person, and starts reading this message in front of me. All that was missing was the bouncy ball above each word so I could speak along with the recording.
To have the reservation, I needed to enter my email address. I was emailed a «confirmation.» The confirmation turned out to be a coupon for the new «boneless wings.» I had to download a software, before I could print the coupon, that’s different.
The banner ad was promoting the new sweet and spicy chicken, with an authentic taste. I love Americanized Chinese, and if it’s citrusy with chicken my tastebuds generally approve. Psychological craving activated, I was compelled towards gratification.
Whoever came up with this ad deserves an award, a brilliant integration of images and sounds. For getting a skeptical, ad immune person like myself to click on an ad.
I couldn’t even preview what was going to be printed. So what came out was a surprise. They’re taking coupon fraud seriously.
Expires ⁷⁄₂₄!!! There’s less than two hours ’til midnight. I was like andale andale arriba arriba you-​hoo, like Speedy Gonzales.
The loudspeaker has a case of laryngitis, every other word was omitted. I have heard more from a cellphone call with lots of static.
Even with the messed up loudspeaker, I could pick up on the undertones of frustration and irritation behind the voice of the employee. I can’t say that I blame her; she was probably going through the rehearsed conversation for the 1000^th time that day. I handed my coupon, got a $ 1.00 off.
The boneless wings are in essence chicken nuggets with a different breading and a different sauce. Suddenly, they weren’t as innovative as I thought.
Unlike the photos, the boneless wings were evenly coated with the sauce, which exposed how dry it could taste. It had a kick to it, but my tastebuds didn’t feel fire and brimstone.
The new Sweet and Spicy chicken from Wendy’s is okay. Service proves it’s still a fast food restaurant, all efficiency no fun.
