Carl’s Jr

Hours are posted and that’s the time you have to open bottom line. Not an hour later. Sun 6am– 10pm not 7am. Then we wait till 7 but still not open at 7:05

Tried drive up a couple Sundays ago, had 1 car in front of me, took 15 minutes to get to the window and no, they had 1 bag of food, I get the window after waiting 15 freaking minutes, and there is no one to greet me, waive, hand me my food, etc. I gave it 1 minute while I watched an employee helping the lobby and drove off. I was so pissed off, because I was starving and ended up at Super Burrito. I will never go back to location, inexcusable and terrible service!

All fast food pretty much tastes the same to me. My hubby and and I went here for lunch today. The food was good, I mean as far as fast food goes. They got my husband’s order wrong but he never complains bc he feels like people will spit in his food (note: this is anywhere not just at Carl’s Junior) so that was fine. Mostly I only gave it 3 stars bc the restrooms were so gross. Also no paper towels or soap? Good thing I carry hand sanitizer in my purse.

I’m not a fast food person. I stopped in because I had to go to the Social Security office. In fear I might die of starvation because there probably was going to be a long wait there, I ordered a bean burrito no cheese and an Iced tea. The reason I’m reviewing this is because the guy who maybe was the manager was talking on his cell phone (a personal call) running the drive through and handling food. I was in the lobby, It wasn’t very busy, but it took forever. I think it’s because he wouldn’t get off the phone (which I wanted to yell at him.) If he would have just focused on his job, maybe everyone could have been serviced in a timely manner.

Worst service ever! Every time I come here they take 30 minutes just to prepare an order of one combo! Not only that but they usually run out of criss cut fries, seriously!!?

I used to go a lot, now I am through. I went through the drive-​thru to get the new all natural burger. I ordered a double, when I got home it was a single. Plus the bun was stale. The bottom part of the bun was too hard to eat in places, so I threw half of it away. Like the movie says: «They screw you at the drive-​thru!»

This location is hit or miss.
It is by a dental office I work at often, and because it’s close I frequent it often. What I’ve learned is if the drive through is full, you might as well go somewhere else. Even if you go inside you will stand there for a long time before someone will help you.
Once They take your order, it’s always a long wait to recieve your food. The food has always been good.
One time they totally forgot to bring me my order at all. I had to go up to the counter with my receipt for them to make it.

Holy tergiversation batman, am I seriously giving Carl’s Jr four stars? Have I lost my mind, my palate, my conscience? Has some ecdemic North Korean agent hacked my brain and left me an addlepated, mass-​consuming, excrescence of corporate-​cartel-​klepto-​bureaucratic America? Well, um perhaps. You see Carl’s Jr has come out with a rather shocking, startling, odd, antithetical concept, a healthy, all natural, grass-​fed, steroid-​free, free-​range Australian burger patty at $ 4.99 for a single and $ 6.99 for a double, thereby giving away the real price of the patty at $ 2.00. So I was conflicted. This is like the Nazi’s coming out with a health camp for Communists where instead of killing them, they make them do calisthenics and read about Buddhism and meditate and debate each other freely and think critically about epistemological neologistic paradigmatic exegetical heuristics. I don’t know how far I can milk that metaphor, but you have to give me credit for trying. You notice I don’t say Jew, because quite honestly, I don’t want Jews telling me it’s an inappropriately insensitive metaphor. I’d rather Communists tell me.
Can you really applaud a chain that otherwise abuses animals and customers? I’m making a statement here, and it may not be entirely sincere, but the point is, well, are these reviews really all about sincere criticism or a bunch of entitled conscientiously gourmandizing Millennials b tching about the most negligible trivia just to get back at their parents who substituted consumerism for affection. Hence, consumerism is like how I show you how much I love you, but if you don’t get love at a restaurant, you must one star them. Anyhow, Carl’s Jr deserves something for admitting to the world that there is actually something called an unnatural burger and that’s just about every other burger on its menu and the menu of every other fast food chain in the universe. But how did it taste? Honestly, it could have tasted like a wet toilet paper roll and I would have been happy. It didn’t taste actually great or bad. It was a thin, flat, irregularly shaped patty which meant that it was making at least an attempt not to look like a conformist stamped circle from a mould and perhaps suffered a hint of imperfect human handling. Nonetheless it was flat like Wile E Coyote after the bulldozer driven by a demented bird. Perhaps Wile E Coyote is a metaphor for humanity, but let’s not go there. I was actually more impressed by the bun, actually a tasty lightly toasted product with the slightest hint of fermenting yeast. You may consider this a rather euphuistic aberration of a review, but if you like to insult yourself with the captious screed other reivewers pass off for information, I can understand your confusion.

Well Gus once again wanted me to pick something up from here.
It was once again beyond horrible, horrible, horrible.
I told him never again and I mean it.

Ok, so I don’t have unreasonable standards. And every time I step foot into a fast food restaurant, honestly, my expectations lower ever slightly. So the other evening, I went to this Carl’s Jr for dinner, and chose to go inside instead of the drive thru. When I got inside, there was one person ahead of me in line. After a few minutes organizing everything behind the counter, the clerk took this customers order. She continued to organize things while waiting for his food to be finished. About 10 minutes later, she finally manages to take my order. I ordered the Memphis BBQ Burger, partly because the advertisement on the menu stated that you got a free chocolate chip cookie ice cream sandwich with purchase of any combo. I got a number and went to my seat to wait for my food. Approximately 15 minutes later, my food came out. The clerk was very polite and apologized for the food delay. Immediately, I noticed that there was no ice cream sandwich. So I asked this young lady, and she said that I needed to say something at the time of the order. Strange, because this sign never said «Ask for your free shit» or «If you don’t say anything in time, you get no free shit.» So this was a little frustrating. Not much because I am not a huge sweets person and I probably would have taken a bite of it, or taken it home for my gf to enjoy next time she came over. More upsetting than the ice cream incident was the fact that my fries were cold. As an American who has eaten fast food from time to time throughout the last 28 years, I know very well that there is no way the french fries they served me were cooked during the 45 minute period I was in the restaurant. Again, I went to the clerk at the front counter, and she explained that those were fresh fries when they came out. I passionately explained that this was not possible whatsoever. Finally, the manager came out and asked me to leave because I was being too loud.

The burgers are still good, but this time it was not very hot and the fries were almost cold! However the Jalapino Burger had enough peppers on it to taste them, Most only have a few. I also ordered the steak green burrito combo. It looked good, but it was dry on the inside and the tablespoon of steak that was in it was dry with a strange texture and bland flavor. I wondered how many times it had been reheated or sat on a warming line.

Good burgers and big portions. Their burgers are better than most fast food places.

this place doesn’t get the respect it deserves… next to In-​n-​Out it has the best fast food burgers in town. Charbroiled with heaping fresh iceberg lettuce… old California… drive thru again and again…

On the one hand, I think Carl’s Jr. does hamburgers and Mexican food better than their fast food rivals. On the other, the price is high enough you can get better food for roughly the same price at non-​chain joints.
Their $ 6 burger is pretty good. But I’d rather spend $ 6.50 on a burger and fries at the Wolfs Den.
I tried their green burrito and a nacho taco recently. The nacho taco was meh, but the green burrito was better than what you get at Taco Bell or Del Taco. But for the price I can think of a half dozen non-​chain Mexican restaurants that do it better.

As long as Carl’s junior has the Western Bacon Cheeseburger or yummy onion rings, I will come here several times a year.
The Western Bacon Cheeseburger that I like is a meal in itself. The other day, before Krista E. and I went swimming at my pool, I stopped at Carl’s to get one of these because she had eaten, I didn’t want to get hungry. In the four hours we spent at the pool and in it, I never felt a hunger pang even once.
For $ 3.50 after tax, that’s a fantastic value.
I like other things about this Carl’s as well. They have one of the more comfortable indoor seating areas and arrangements. I like that you can refill your soda from a handy dispenser whenever you like, and the employees seem to be a cut above most fast food employees, which indicates good hiring practices and that employees are treated better than at most fast food places.
The location is excellent being on the corner of one very busy street and one less busy street. When the urge for my beloved WBC strikes, I’ll arrange my errands to take me by this location.
For a fast food burger, you can not beat Carl’s quality and price.
