"first time...loved it. chicken was so juicy and fresh!! toast is yummy!"
"I've heard a lot of people saying Raising Cane's is not as good as it used to be, and this order made me a believer of that issue because the chicken had pieces that I couldn't even chew.. not just one — which would be understandable — but all six chicken tenders. They were small and soggy as were the fries, and it isn't because I got it DoorDashed because I've ordered it in the past and it was still really good. The only good thing this time was the toast and the sweet tea... I will miss eating the good food, but they've lost another customer and I've lost about $60+ for inedible food."

"it's good in a pinch for a late night meal.and given the price the quality is surprisingly good,like I'd take them over mcd's any day."
"One of the worst food deliveries I've ever had. first the order took over an hour because the driver had two stops before mine which in my opinion should not be allowed. the hamburger was overcooked and burned in some parts. the onion rings were okay but the tacos were something out of but the tacos were something out of a nightmare they were thrown together in a haphazard fashion and we're about as they were thrown together in a haphazard fashion and we're about as thick as a credit card. there was hardly any meat or cheese on them. I will never order from Jack In The Box again. plus plus I want a refund."

"Perfect late night snack. Everything arrived quickly, was warm when we got it, and tasted great. The Ultimate Sampler was great, both of us could choose what we wanted, and the Beef on Weck Sliders with Au Jus were some of the best sliders I've ever had. Super fresh and I'd definitely order again. Overall the portion size was enough for both of us, and ended up being a good deal with the promotion they had running!"
"Hi, I just placed an order for 2 orders of Boneless Wings and an All-American Cheeseburger with fries. However, only the 2 orders of Boneless Wings were delivered, and the burger and fries were missing. The delivery driver did not speak English and showed me an English translation saying, “Please contact customer service.” I paid for the burger and fries, but I did not receive them. I would appreciate a refund for the missing items, as well as some additional accommodation for the inconvenience. Thank you for your help."

"I randomly tried these bagels and honestly didn’t expect them to be this good… I placed my order, swung by to pick it up, and the whole process was super smooth and easy. Everything tasted fresh and perfectly put together, like you can tell these guys really know what they’re doing and actually care about quality. I didn’t even realize they were a local spot at first, which makes it a thousand times better. Big plus is they’re basically always open, so it’s clutch when you want something good late at night. Definitely coming back, I’d do this a thousand times again. Portions were greater than I expected! The Classic Bagel is amazing, and the one with meat even better!"

"Got the tri-tip and rib combo with fries for the side, a good amount of food for the price! was very good! I will definitely get it again! I don't get steak and ribs all that often, so I was unsure on what cook to get it at, did medium well, I think next time I'll get it at medium so it's more tender. nonetheless, I still found it tasted amazing."

I ordered salmon sashimi about ($6) on the side for extra protein, but it felt like basically paid $20 for a ton of rice and a pinch of salmon. I'm disappointed, Mikko. I would not order again."

"Prepare for disappointment. Ordered Sesame Chicken and over half of what I received was just cut up slices of fat, which is disgusting and a complete waste of money. I ordered shrimp on the side and got 3 pieces of shrimp. Yes, only 3, which is also super disappointing. I added chicken fried rice to my order as well and while the fried rice tasted good, it only had 4 very small pieces of chicken in it. Overall just a disappointment for how much money we spent.
