"I'm glad to have the Warehouse back on DoorDash! My 15 Layer Lasagne was great. The restaurant forgot the salad dressing (I have dressings here to use), and my food was not that hot by the time it reached me. However, it was up to their usual standards taste-wise, and I'll definitely order from them again!"
"The Fettuccine Alfredo is super bland and the sauce was kind of grainy. Very disappointed to learn that bread wasn't complimentary like at the real Warehouse and extra disappointed to learn that despite paying for bread, we got none."

"The Lasagna was so amazing. It was packed with flavor. Each layer was perfectly made. The Mozzarella Garlic Bread was so delicious the cheese was very good and seasoned with garlic on every bite. I got creative and used my Lasagna as a spread for the Mozzarella Garlic Bread and oh em gee very good!!!!!!!!!! I loved it so much my first time ever ordering here and I was very impressed. Words of advice when a lady orders her Sierra Mist Can please don't forget it lol!!!!!!"
"The Lasagna for One(Sat-Sun All Day; Mon-Fri after 4:30pm) was a good portion and stacked high. Clear layers. The caesar salad and bread were also good. However, the sauce was so thick, pasty and tart. It was like eating tomato paste from the can. It clearly had been sitting a while so what I got wasn't fresh. Because of the sauce it was barely edible . Would not order again."

"Absolutely delicious, fresh, hot and amazing. Fries were perfectly cooked and still crispy on arrival, the sandwich was as good as it looks. The Rusty Bucket never disappoints. Best part, so much food I had to take a break. I would absolutely recommend and order this over and over again. Much appreciated and thank you for a wonderful lunch."
"The BBQ chopped chicken salad was basically a full bag of lettuce, not much BBQ flavor at all, and a very small smattering of corn and black beans. The chicken was passable but somewhat tough. For over $20 I would expect better. Won't be going back anytime soon. Just not the same as it used to be and way overpriced for what they're now giving you."
