I don't do a lot of fast food reviews, but I see that Carl's has gotten s few recent poor reviews, so I wanted to throw in my compliments. This is actually my go-to fast food place in Old Town. My food has ALWAYS been fresh, and I don't think they've ever messed up my order. Their burgers are great, and they have the best fast food chicken tenders around. Onion rings are fantastic too. Except for the hash browns, I think they beat McDonald's when it comes to breakfast. They even have a breakfast burger, which is pretty ridiculous...and I mean that in the best way possible! Finally, the employees have always been friendly. Keep up the good work!

Carls jr promotes drinking and driving. The lobby was closed to customers so I walked through the drive through. They wouldn't serve me because I was not in a car. I explained to him that I was trying to be responsible and I walked over here to get my dinner because I have been drinking. Still wouldn't do it.

So here's a true story ... i was working in a carls jr (not a employee but a vendor) and I went to grab tools I needed out of my van. Well my van has safety locks in the back meaning if you get inside and forget to keep the door open you get locked in .. well needless to say the door slammed shut on me and I got locked in!! I called carls jr and said "hey is this the manager I was just in there working and I had to get some tools , sounds funny but I locked myself inside my van , im on the side of the building can you let me out" she said ya. I see her walk 30 seconds later by all the windows looking out in the parking lot and she cant see me ( my van has a headache rack separating the back and front ) so im trying to wave through the headache rack and she just moves on and forgets about me !!!! Im typing this story after sitting in my FIRE VAN for 15 min. She literally just forgot about me and continued working.

We don't have this fast food restaurant in Canada so I had to come back here after a stop in Montana three years ago. I remembered the burger to be delicious. I know its fast food but that doesn't mean it can't taste good. I had the original burger and the onion rings. I can say that while I ate every last ring, they were good but certainly not great. I had the burger the way it came and maybe I added bacon last time. It was good, I suppose even really good considering we are at a fast food joint. Its not going to unseat the Big Mac or even the Quarter Pounder in my mind but it was good. I think maybe i could eat here once a month, tops. My wife had the Guacamole and Bacon burger. She really loved it. I don't know, not my thing but she insisted I try it. After saying no thank you at least six times I finally graciously accepted a bite. Like I said, not my thing. She also had a creamsicle milkshake which tasted just like a creamsicle. Again she enjoyed it.

I have always been a huge Carl's Jr fan but recently the portion sizes have started to get smaller. Anyone else notice this with the Hamburgers here?

The new Big Chicken is a Big disaster. It also seemed like a corner of my sandwich did not make it into the deep fryer. I ended up cutting the thing into pieces and tossing it on the stove with some other stuff. This was the Bacon Swiss, it was supposed to be extra crunchy and dusted with spices, but neither occurred. The tomato slice was of course an end piece and the bun had so much mayo it was a soggy, gooey mess. One half of the bun got tossed. It was $4.99 and maybe it is just this location, but might give it one more shot somewhere else, but doubtful. Late night craving fail.

I ordered a famous star and specifically said no pickles and no cheese. Okay they got the pickles right, but they put cheese on it. And they forgot the onions. And they forgot the sauce. Really... They dont seem to know how to make their own food.

I've given this location a try many times and it always disappoints. The food is not fresh and it doesn't taste good. Every once in a while, I will get the urge to have a Western Bacon Cheeseburger and I'll have to drop by to get one....however, I always leave this particular location regretting my decision to do so. Unfortunately, in Scottsdale, there aren't any other choices for Carl's Jr nearby. Return Factor - 15%

I stopped by Carl's Jr. after a Doctor's appointment for some lunch, specifically to buy a Jalapeno Turkey Burger. The sandwich looked appetizing in its advertisements, as I love turkey burgers and enjoy anything spicy. Since Carl's Jr. usually makes pretty tasty burgers of all varieties, I was looking forward to eating a juicy, flavorful, spicy turkey burger. I was sadly dissapointed. I have eaten turkey burgers from almost every type of restaurant imaginable: expensive organic restaurants, burger joints, college cafeterias, and backyard barbecues. I don't consider myself a snob, and I don't pretend to have the highest standards when it comes to food. However, the Jalapeno Turkey Burger that I ate at Carl's Jr. was one of the worst I've eaten in a long time. The pattie was extremely rubbery and dry, which means it had been sitting in a warmer for an extended period of time. The bun was a tasty wheat bun, but unfortunately it was squished to the size of two pancakes. The sauce was minimal and the cheese was non-existent. As for the spice factor, the jalapeno's added hardly any flavor or heat to the lukewarm burger. They were some of the most bland jalapenos I have ever eaten. Overall, I would say that all of the promised components of the burger were there, but they were all much lower quality than what I was expecting from Carl's Jr.

I love this place. The service is absolutely amazing. They are always really friendly and never screw up my order - - things that are very important when it comes to fast food. Their Apple Walnut Chicken salad is amazing! I also crave their fried zucchini on a steady basis. Carl's Jr has some of the best fast food burgers out there... if you want something fast and GOOD then I think you should stop here.
