Jack In the Box

This morning I ordered a big cheeseburger large fries and a lemonade… It was awful!!! The fries are so greasy my fingers look like I stuck them in the fry vat… My cheeseburger was so dry it look like it sat out since yesterday… And the lemonade tastes like water I can say I’ll never go back there again… I should of give the seven bucks to a homeless person instead… I’m only giving it one star cause i have to if I’m going to post this…

First let me say: I can’t believe I’m writing a review of a Jack in the Box.
Second, let me say: They must have read Emily’s review.
I don’t frequently eat at fast-​food places, but like everyone who’s travelling on a highway for a day or more… I want to get where I’m going and quality takes a back seat to speed and availability.
With that said, my experience started out exactly like Emily’s… I found myself pumping gas at the Chevron and hungry. Knowing from experience that the «quicky-​mart/​fast food restaurant» hybrid is usually the very worst of the worst I made the informed decision to just go for it anyways, because I knew once I was back on the road I wasn’t stopping again for a few hours.
I walked in the Jack in the Box and found it quite clean. I was greeted promptly and my order was in without hassle.
Anyways, I won’t draw it out, this was definitely the best fast-​food burger I’ve ever had. I got the Sirloin something-​or-​other meal, and when I opened the box it was like the light of the Grail shone forth. OK, maybe that’s a bit much, but seriously it was the best looking fast-​food burger I’ve ever seen, for the first time in my life… the burger actually looked like the picture on the menu. Better even!
And it was delicious, too, quite a bit better than a lot of burgers I’ve had at «real» restaurants.
So there you have it. Maybe if I’d ordered 30 minutes later, or on a week day instead of a Saturday, or any other combo it would have been the normal barely-​tolerable fast food experience, I don’t know. But if this Jack in the Box always serves it up like this they deserve to be acknowledged, because it was without question the tastiest and most surprisingly good fast-​food burger I’ve ever eaten.

Decent for fast food. When I ate in the dining room, I waited 18 minutes for it, however.

Very good service. Food was just how it looked and the staff was actually happy to work there unlike all the oyher fast food resturants I go to. Best jack in the box in 20 miles south & north

I found myself pumping gas at Chevron and hungry. Being hungry is nothing new with me. Surprised? Don’t be.
I ordered a no. 5. The girl at the counter seriously looked 12 and had no idea what to do with my money. Perhaps she is used to people paying with plastic. For once, I had cash AND 5 pennies.
While I won’t rip her apart… it’s Christmas people. However, she did forget to put my antenna ball in my bag. Why the fuck else do people go to Jack in the Crack?
My sandwich sucked ass. The cheese never even got a chance to melt. I think the tomato came out of the freezer. And my bread was slightly burned.
When I got to the car, I looked in the bag… no french fries? Didn’t I fucking ordered the no. 5!!! And where the fuck was my goddamned ball!!! I want my fucking ball! I ordered the 2000 calorie egg nog milkshake for my husband to make up for the sweetness that’s lacking in his life.
I ran back in and got my ball… didn’t bother with the french fries. Fuck it.
If any of you have ever traveled north bound 99, passed through Lathrop and Ripon, roll up your windows and speed the fuck up. And keep speeding until you pass Stockton. At that point, floor it. The ‘99’ side of Stockton is not worth your time.
