Chick-fil-A — Restaurant in Riverton

Chick-fil-A opened its first location in 1967 as the “home of the Original Chicken Sandwich” in a suburb of Atlanta, Georgia.

Since then, the restaurant has opened franchises in 47 U.S. states and is one of the most profitable fast-food brands in the country.

Amid competition from McDonald’s, Burger King, Wendy’s, Popeye’s, and other popular fast-food chains, Chick-fil-A retains its popularity despite being closed on Sundays and not serving any beef-based products.

Chick-fil-A has managed to secure a spot as one of America’s most beloved chains due to its high-quality taste and experience available at a low price point.

Compared to its competition, Chick-fil-A keeps its restaurants extremely clean and well-stocked.

Team members are always cleaning the tables and floors, stocking the ketchup, and even ensuring the bathroom is well-kept.

Customers know they can go to a Chick-fil-A and expect a high-quality, clean dining experience—something that is even more important given the recent pandemic.

In addition to its dine-in experience, the chain’s drive-thru is also incredibly efficient.

Customers never wait more than a few minutes for their food and are always treated exceptionally by employees.

One of the most unique things about Chick-fil-A is its consistently top-rated customer service.

People rave about how kind the employees are, and that they always take orders with a smile and are willing to accommodate customers’ dietary restrictions and other needs.

Since many other fast-food chains offer low pay and poor working conditions, it is hard to come by such happy and kind employees.

Chick-fil-A stands out because of the exceptional customer service it provides even at such a low price point.

Chick-fil-A is known for its exceptional chicken sandwich.

After all, it is called Chick-fil-A, and the chicken lives up to its name.

It also has a trademark Chick-fil-A sauce on its chicken sandwiches that cannot be found or replicated anywhere else.

Some people go to Chick-fil-A for the sauce alone.

The ingredients for the legendary chicken sandwich seem simple: fried chicken on a buttered bun with dill pickle chips.

There’s much more to it.

The seasoning, part of what makes it so special, was mastered by founder, Truett Cathy, when he opened his first restaurant.

That recipe is kept locked in a secret vault in Atlanta, Georgia.

The sauce is no secret, though.

It’s just a mixture of honey mustard, barbecue sauce, and ranch dressing.

One of the reasons fast-food chains, in general, are so popular is that they provide consistency.

A Chick-fil-A sandwich in California will taste the same as a Chick-fil-A sandwich in New Jersey.

Usually Chic FIL A is a 5 star for me, but my last experience was anything but. To summarize my experience it was bad service, wrong food, 2x the wait time as normal for a 6 car order line.

The person I spoke to over their speaker while ordering couldn't understand me after repeating myself 3-4 different times and was definitely new. It took about 22 minutes in line to get my food and I was watching the clock as I only had a 30 minute break and ended up being late. As I sat at the window the lady who took my order spent 5 minutes getting bags of food together instead of giving me my order which was right by the window, and none of the employees who saw me waiving came to the window to help me before she was done.

I've been trying to eat fairly healthy which is why I chose Chic FIL A for breakfast. The newer employee didn't know that they sold a yogurt parfait with fruit, or that it could be subbed out for an extra charge instead of their fries and it took them about 3-4 minutes to get my combo in the system. On top of that when I checked my sandwich at home I was given a normal battered chicken sandwich and regular eggs on a biscuit, when I ordered the grilled chicken egg white on mulitigrain muffin.

I couldn't eat the sandwich and ended up throwing it away. Really disappointed and hesitant to go back...

The Riverton location is the worst for service. I just picked up my online order and literally stood in the pickup area for a while and no one ever ask if I need helped. My app stated my order was ready in the pickup area, food is NEVER in this area, they hold everything behind the counter. Literally 6 employees walked past me and didn’t ask anything, as if I was not there. I’m shocked about my recent experience at this location. Two managers were standing there as well and never said a thing to me. Too many people working to not be asked if I needed help. The cashier made eye contact with me three different times but never bother to ask if I need assistance. Only when finally someone coming back from break called out my name and my food had been sitting there all along and the cashier had my 3 large drinks in the carrier ready to go. Madness when I thought using the app advising my order was ready it would be ready in the pick up area as the app stated, only to get a horrible customer experience. We like Chikfila menu and food options but this location needs to be improve on customer service at least say hi and smile at people once in a while. Train employees to be willing to help, step up and provide a DECENT CUSTOMER...
