"I ordered the Salmon Burger and Baco Cheeseburger for me and a coworker. Both were delicious and affordable. The fries were crispy and hot, too. The packaging was lacking, but it probably keeps the cost down. I will order for lunch again, no doubt."
"Fantastic burger and by far the best in downtown SC, dare I say best in all county? It was perfect, exactly how I wanted with all my little tweaks too. 10/10!
Oh, and just a heads up, their milkshakes are generous. We got the large thinking it might be at Best 20 ounces to share, and this thing was like half a gallon. Think super super big gulp size. it definitely was super sized."

"I absolutely loved the cobbler and 2 lbs of brisket fed 4 people and all of them were so full and if you order the heat at home Berry Cobbler they will fully freeze the ice cream so it stays frozen the whole way! The brisket was comparable to heaven and it was so tender and fatty but the non fat part was very lean but atill very flavorful, the flavor is balanced throughout the entire slice, the mac and cheese was so creamy and stayed warm through the whole car ride the coleslaw was a perfect balance of flavor and crunch. 11/10 stars would recommend"
"Wish I could give a better review. We normally love Mission St BBQ but tonight was a miss. The brisket was cut super thick with a ton of fat, and a very small portion compared to what you would get in person. Definitely not worth $23. The kid's meal was horribly burnt and I had to cut around a ton of char just to get to edible meat for them. The restaurant also gave us a potato salad side instead of mac and cheese, which was very clearly on the receipt. Please do better with to-go meals!"

"I had not ordered the brisket sandwich in months. The previous times it was great. This was horrible. First off, the size was tiny ... about 4" x 2.75". Then, I opened the sandwich and saw all the fat, which I trimed off (shown in photo), leaving little brisket.

"WOW!!! That was the best, THE BEST, Shrimp and Crab Louie EVER! Everything was fresh and there was an abundance of shrimp and crab, not just a few of them sprinkled on top. The bread rolls were heated and even the butter was placed in a separate container so they didn't melt or get smashed.
Thank You Gilda's and a big hug to the Chef and Preppers. "
"This was a DoorDash order.
I ordered my filet mignon med rare; it was well done. The coleslaw was hot. The spaghetti and meatballs tasted like Sysco quality; no way was it homemade. Although they didn't clam it to be homemade, it was pricy for "freezer food."
Crab cakes were sub par at best.
The vegetables were good and cooked perfectly. The fruit bowl was hot...probably similar to the hot Cole slaw being bagged with hot food.
Cold vs. hot should be bagged accordingly. We also only received one set of utensils for $140 worth of food, including two entry's. Seems common sense to pack fo at least two people eating.
Disappointing on several levels. From quality, cooking and packing the to-go."

"This Jbox is far superior than the one in Santa Cruz. Always fresh. Rat meat tacos are the best!😎👊"
"I really need to stop trying the food here over & over, hoping it will go back to even a tiny fraction of edible & even good again. The insane prices for any burger here alone is hard to justify for fast food, but when the meat is severely rubbery, burnt to hell, somehow devoid of flavor, my bun was awful, stale, rock hard - there is no way it's brioche. imo misrepresentation of their products it's a joke. We can find better food at real restaurants, costing half the price, tasting better in every way, & the quality between the two is so drastic. (even frozen ones!)
curly fries still the best + these Pumpkin Spice Mini Churros are ridiculously delicious. Interesting the juxtaposition between those & the burger 🤷🏻♂️
if they weren't one of the only options here after 10pm, I wouldn't have bothered. Would not order again in the future.
somehow got 3 bags of the churros. swear I only ordered 2, so if I got 1 free somehow, that's cool at least ig (but the burger price ruins it)"

"The chicken tenders and fries were tasty and the order size was appropriate for the price, however, the double mocha was not as mesmerizing, I thought I would get a 20ounce mocha but received maybe a 10ounce. Not a good price for what I paid 8.00"
"Pretty sure they use AI images for their menu photos because the food looks nothing like this, not even the same ingredients. I got the Rockfish Burrito and it was huge (yay!) but it was almost entirely beans and rice. The fish was barely noticable, not big chunks like the photo but small flakey pieces and it was very dry and chewy. I ate about 1/4 of the burrito thinking they had sent me just a bean and cheese because I didn't taste any fish or pineapple. There was almost no flavor to the burrito at all and the tortilla fell apart. The Onion Rings were also huge in potion but it was all one giant greasy onion blob. Not really rings at all and a little burnt. Again, nothing like the photo, not even the same kind of batter. Really disappointing and expensive for the low quality food I received."

"Food was excellent! The fries were overflowing in our bag and the banana milkshake tasted fresh and delicious. "
"I think my food was the stuff that was left over from the previous day. I've had Chili Cheese Dog many times before but this one was very odd and chewy like leather. The fries were stale and had too much salt I guess they were trying to hide that the fries were from yesterday also. "

Just one call out, it's a bummer we don't get any dipping sauce for the RIP-TIDE TENDERS ie ranch/bbq sauce. We did get a generous portion of ketchup though :)"

"Tres leches latte was sooo good! Based on other reviews, I added a shot vanilla and it was perfect (I like sweet).
Breakfast sandwiches with bacon was generous portion. The hubs and teenage son ordered it on sourdough, which comes slightly grilled.
Chocolate Croissant was delicious! Lots of chocolate, would definitely come back!"
"The latte was good but the avocado toast was super bland. The bread was soggy and tasted old, and there was an obscene amount of tomatoes added on top which I ordered this before and it has a couple of them not a whole ton like today. Also, there was a light smudge of avocado on one of the breads. It just wasn't consistent with previous orders, this one was not good."

"I think I am like most consumers really struggling right now with the cost of food. and especially with the recent rays of minimum wage for fast food workers I see all of the prices have dramatically increased for all of the restaurants listed on doordash. it has become ridiculous to think that hamburgers cost 10 to 15 bucks or a sandwich is going to cost you $25 or more! I just wanted to mention this and point out that Little Caesars is absolutely the best bang for the buck! your food is always prepared and delivered fresh hot and delicious. and they are one of the few restaurants where I can have a complete full meal for about half of what all of the other restaurants are charging after hiked prices delivery fees tip Etc. I have a renewed love and admiration for Little Caesars in the wonderful business and food that they provide! thanks guys"

"Crepe was just bad. Gooey, no real cream or fruit on it. Wasn't even sure it was the item to be honest.
Skillet was terrible. Tasted like sand, looked as though it had been under a heat lamp for hours before it was sent. In the past this was amazing, what happened this time I just don't understand
Hash browns, however, were spot on, great flavor, perfectly cooked. Well done on those"

"Hmm I have heard people rave about their sandwiches here for decades. Idk. The tri-tip was warm and it was just ok. Trying the turkey for dinner and it has an odd taste. Not much avocado. The turkey has an odd flavor. I believe it is supposed to have the carrots which I was looking forward to and they are not here. Then, this was the worst apple fritter I ever had. Dry, not much flavor and few apples. I rarely eat donuts but when I do it's this type which are usually very sweet and rich. This really didn't taste like much and did not feel fresh. Big disappointment. "
