Burger King

The customer is always wrong at this branch. Mistakes don't warrant apologies here. Only angry looks that you've interrupted their schedule. They're not here to serve you. They are here because they are the monopoly in this town. Sauces are constantly an issue with this branch. They constantly and consistently short their customers. I know because I'm a local here that's decided, "enough is enough." I won't be making an effort to return to this establishment anymore. I'll be driving out of my way to a McDonald's instead.

It’s your run-​of-​the-​mill burger king, however there are pretty bad things about this place.
1. It’s dirty as hell. Nothing ever seems to be clean. I don’t get it. CLEAN IT! It doesn’t take that much effort to keep the place tidy.
2. It’s cold. I don’t know why but where I was sitting, there was a draft. I don’t think they keep the heater on anyway.
3. Some items aren’t available, which is mind-​boggling.
4. There is only one register open when there are tons of people, making the line long time-​consuming. I see other registers, get more employees on them!
5. No drive-​thru, but theres not much you could do about that being that they are in a busy shopping center with little room for one.
6. Sometimes the coke tastes lemony for some reason.
Some good things:
1. Employees are respectful
2. They make the food fast.
Since I live in Port Washington, Burger King is the only fast food place I could go to in the area. Wendy’s is in Greenvale and McDonald’s is all the way in Williston. If they were all in one place here in Port, I’d go to McDonalds or Wendy’s.

This is the Burger King of shame. Everyone, including myself seems to wind up here when they are desperate.
When you arrive, you will find that this Burger King does not participate in many of the promotional deals that other ones have. Yes, it’s fast food but the burgers are always slopped together and off-​temperature.
There’s no drive through, no soda fountain, and the staff could care less.
On the positive side, there is a kids play area, and it is in a good location. Its kept fairly clean, and the condiments are always stocked. So it gets points for a place of refuge which is arguably what a fast food joint is.

Burger King is my favorite fast food place of them all. The reason why I picked this one is not only because it is located in my home town, but because it is ran like a well-​oiled machine. The place is always very clean and they are extremely fast. Not only are they fast, but their burgers are juicier and hotter than any other burger place on Long Island. The staff is awesome, from lower level to management. The manager Frank always ensures that his customers get the best service that Burger King can offer. This place really knows how to live by their motto, always giving the patron «their way».

This Burger King makes the best french fries out of all the burger kings I’ve ever been to. I do avoid going there for breakfast though because the last 2 times I went the guy who took my order did not even understand much English and it took him forever just to type the order in to the register. And both times my orders were not even the size I asked for. I even asked for a large coffee and I got a small coffee. I was the only customer there so it’s pretty hard to forget what size I ordered.

Good burgers. Onion rings were good. Ample parking out front. Fast, friendly, helpful staff. Spacious location. Good prices.

Now, normally I DO NOT write reviews on chain restaurants unless they are superb or terrible, or I just feel like something needs to be known. In this case, I always have a very pleasurable experience when I come to this particular Burger King, and today something unexpected happened…
Well to start, I’m a Direct Support 1:1 Life Skills Coach for Autistic young men. Once a week, before I take my client to his job, he usually gets treated to Burger King. Every time I’m here, the General Manager, who looks no older than 23, is always so pleasant. His name is Frank. He always has a smile on his face that lights up the entire fast food joint, and he’s extremely kind. This means a lot to me as I’ve had plenty of run ins where people are rude and disrespectful because their so ignorant to Autism. Aside from these nasty people, plenty of cashiers and associates of various establishments will also turn the other way to avoid us, or avoid the guys I work with– this is not the case here. All the workers look genuinely happy. Everyone seems to be having a good while still remaining professional.
Today I came here and was ordering food for my client. I was looking at the Cinnabuns and made a comment to my friend about how delicious they looked. Frank made a joke about how he works around this food all day and gets it whenever he wants. He asked if we were going to order any Cinnabuns and I’m like «oh gosh no… not with those calories» !
My friend and I pick up the boys’ food and sit with them as they scarf down their lunch. After a few minutes Frank comes over to us with two Cinnabuns, drops them on the table, and says «I figured you guys would enjoy these».
I was in awe! Some of you might be thinking «why…just over some $ 2 Cinnabuns»?
…because it has become so rare that people will do small, meaningful, and nice gestures for others. When I witness something like this, especially first hand, it really makes me feel good to know that their are still a few of us left.
This Burger King, and Frank, both deserve five stars for being top notch! If you’re ever in the area and feel like dealing with nice people for a change, check out this BK. You won’t be let down!!!
