Wendy’s

This Wendy’s is a disaster! If you attempt a meal inside between the hrs of 1pm — 4pm, on a school day, be prepared to be accosted by the animals from the local school. The only thing worse at this location is the drive-​thru! You will lose so much of your life on the line that the last thing you need is an unhealthy meal. A sign should be posted as you pull into the drive-​thru that reads «Good Luck And Godspeed!»

As we were driving along Hillside Avenue of Upper Jamaica Queens on a late night, visibly only few were still in business operation. We were starving and we were looking for the right fast food place for our needs. As Wendy is known being open late and it was on our way, we made a turn to this location as soon we passed by. I heard so much good things about the updated and fresh Wendy menu idea so I want to confirm it myself.
As we walk in, we could tell the staff is getting ready for closing. We still have hour to enjoy though our meal. We settled for salad #1-​the spicy grilled chicken Caesar salad and #3-​the Apple walnut salad. Both were satisfying. We got the freshness we were expecting. Each respective dressing were perfectly selected by the Wendy’s chef, thumbs up fir that., Pricing for half serving is reasonable.
The restaurant has a modern look outside and inside. It has a fireplace in a lounge area, a big screen TV for patron use, a stylish soda dispenser, high bar tables, comfy low tables with matching cushy chairs.
May they keep this place well.

So I’m not a big fast food burger-​chain kind of guy and, the truth is, this location has never been very appealing buuuut…
They recently did a full renovation of this location both outside and inside (at least as far as the dining area is concerned). The first thing you’ll notice is that it looks like a brand new and modern Wendy’s which it largely is. The access doors into the restaurant have changed a bit and that’s due to the completely redesigned and reconfigured interior. An interior which I have to admit may be among the most attractive and thoughtfully done up for such an establishment. It features all manners of seating from your typical low top tables, to a few 2 person high top tables, to a «bar seating» configuration which overlooks Hillside Avenue (and all its beauty… just kidding), to a few seats next to what appears to be a gas fireplace over which there is a (not-​yet-​working) flat screen TV. It’s all clean and attractive and, at least for the moment, very well maintained. Here’s hoping it stays that way, especially with Van Buren High School very close by which should mean high student traffic.

This wendys is a joke. As I sit here and write this review, me along with others are sitting here waiting because their employee is arguing with a customer. The wait time is ridiculous and they are unprofessional

No hello/​no greeting from staff, very slow drive thru service. No one says thank you after transaction or even offer up a smile. Would not recommend this place at all.
