Jack in the Box

They tacos and chocolate shakes are good and seasoned curly fries are good when hot and fresh

My tacos were broken up and falling apart. Made it hard to enjoy my meal. Too much lettuce and shells were white instead of a cooked brown color. Jumbo Jack was good, just too much lettuce and a glob of pickles. I'm pregnant so the pickles were okay.

Initially, I walked in to find one customer ahead of me in line. The cashier struggled to get his order correct (although it appeared to be poor communication on both sides) and took 7 minutes to take a single order. As other employees stared at the open cash registers, no one thought to come help other customers who were now waiting. I was walking out when the cashier finally offered to take my order. She struggled to understand that my son wanted mustard and not mayonnaise on his hamburger.

Food came out hot. My sourdough patty melt had a good taste to it and I enjoyed it. French fries, although lacking the crispness of McDonald's fries, were better than usual for Jack in the Box. My son enjoyed his junior bacon cheeseburger, but it truly is a junior size. I would recommend skipping the chicken nuggets, as nugget is a very apt term for the small piece that they serve. Plus, unless you're willing to drench it in sauce, it is tasteless.

One of the things my family enjoys at Jack in the Box is the drink machine and its innovative soda flavors. Unfortunately, these machines often seem to be lacking several of the key drinks and this visit was no exception. Jack in the Box has several signs promoting vanilla dr. Pepper and other Dr. Pepper combinations, but, of course, they were out of Dr Pepper.

Overall this was an average to slightly above-average visit to a fast food restaurant. I do appreciate the fact that this Jack in the Box put ketchup packets in baskets on each table, so you didn't have to go and ask counter-personnel for extra condiments while you waited until they finished what they were already doing.

Since I moved form the Dallas, TX area, I don't get to visit Jack in The Box very often. I love the fact that they always have so much from which to choose.

On this visit, the young lady in the Drive-thru was very courteous and she did a great job of taking our order and repeating it back to us. Our food was fresh and everything we ordered was in the bag. I am glad I stopped at this location because they did a great job of giving us what we paid for.

Employees were very nice and this location looked or seemed clean as far as I could tell. I got Jack's spicy chicken sandwich and had a hard time finding any chicken under the fried breading. Thank goodness for the lettuce tomatoes and extra pickles that were generously put on the sandwich by one of the nice employees because otherwise I would still be hungry or hangry about it
