Jack In the Box

I don’t usually bother to review fast food places, but I just had a really good experience at JITB and wanted to give that location and employee credit. I just returned from vacationing in Kansas City, where folks are real friendly and service is very good, so I wasn’t expecting the tip top service I got from the drive through! I didn’t see the mushroom buttery jack on the menu, so I asked about it, and instead of brushing my request off (which usually happens) the nice kid asked the manager, and made the burger for me, just how I wanted it. He was friendly and helpful and a cutie, too! Give that kid Raul a raise!

Service and food have really gone downhill at Jack in the Box. They have the absolute worst fish sandwich I have ever had. I was so disappointed I don’t even want to go back.

Not even 1 star let me start off by saying I loved Jack in the box but now I’m really grossed out by my experience there. I walked into the bathroom to wash my hands and it smelled really bad and it was very dirty! Then I went to order my food the cashier was really rude. As I looked around I noticed there was food on the floor all the tables were dirty and everything just looked gross. My food came out cold everything tasted like it was not even prepared. Through it all away idk how that place is open. Just want to say I’ll never go back

After two days of killing my arteries with that little slice of heaven known as In-​N-​Out, it was time to try my hand at the other West Coast chain that has eluded me while I lay my head on the Right Coast.
The menu at Jack In the Box is nothing short of intimidating, and looks like it was concocted by a total schizophrenic. Fast food, paninis, Mexican and a whole host of others provides an overwhelming set of choices. But I guess this is a good problem to have.
I can’t speak to their entire menu, but I was a bit disappointed by their steak melt. When they say steak, clearly they just mean normal hamburger patty. And when they say there’s fried onions on it, they must have meant bacon.
And as unamerican as it is, I hate bacon. I want it nowhere near my food.
They do have curly fries though, which are a huge plus for any dining establishments. I may hate bacon, but damn do I love curly fries.
While we were waiting for our food, the woman in front of the counter yelled at the entire kitchen staff that they all needed to wash their hands. Not necessarily something you want to hear being shouted while you’re waiting for your food.
It really can distract from taking in the surreal art featuring their mascot, not to mention have you questioning your decision to eat there.
Jack In the Box is very much in the vain of other fast food establishments like McDonalds and Burger King. The West Coast mystique didn’t do it any justice, and unlike its neighboring In-​N-​Out, we’re probably better off without it crowding our streets out East.
