Very high marks!!! Especially with the help of Jessica. Very patient and helpful with suggestions while taking my order. The food was just like I expected it to be. With flavor and quality ingredients. The facility is very clean along with the restrooms. Very convenient with the freeway being just down the street.

In the morning there is no line in the drive through. There is plenty of seating available inside if you want to dine in. Its very clean and nice inside. Food comes out great and orders are usually correct. Sometimes in the drive through they will have you pull forward and park in a designated area if they have to wait for something to finish cooking and they will bring it out to you.

Just went in was having trouble with my app and the lady was by herself with a great attitude great smile awesome service she was handling drive-through and front counter like a pro. It’s 2:21 PM and I don’t get her name, but she definitely deserves recognition and she’s one of your greatest employees that I’ve had experienced here

I went for an early dinner after work, but before 5pm. Quick in and out through the drive through. Wanted to try the Cali XL and it was yummy, just like everything else at Carl's lol. The grilled onions was a nice touch and this is Carl's Jr answer to the Double Double from Inn n Out. It's a great burger and I will be eating it again, but still doesn't beat a Double Double in my opnion. I love my crunch and grilling the bun is something that might make the burger a tid bit better - like Inn n Out does. That being said I am also a big fan of the $5 burgers (no longer on my local menu) and have only found comparable burgers to this at sit down restaurants - All of these burgers are great... but the burgers are no longer $5, and sadly I no longer see them on the menu. (Look for the purple onion in them if they ever bring them back)
