The potential for this restaurant is so high, they have good quality chicken and food but they really need to work on presentation and customer care. We stopped going there and decided yesterday to give it another try and this time my hubby went in to give back the sandwich. Now the girl who met him at the counter he said was very professional and she took back the sandwich and put together another one rather quickly. It was cold but def better. I absolutely hate doing that but the cheese had hard edges breaking apart from sitting out the bacon was in pieces burnt, they they put a huge lettuce end on there it was bigger than the chicken lol the waffle fries were cold and hard with more cold burnt bacon pieces and this was an item they were advertising as new. Bacon was so burnt i actually had a bad taste in my mouth after eating. I still ate it thou my husband threw his out after a few bites. We ordered through the drivethru and the csr was not helpful seemed annoyed and we get it we all have to work to survive but I personally treat my customers with care and enthusiasm. Even if they are annoying. I couldn't see the menu from the passengers seat so i asked for a menu he didnt have one, i asked what options they had and he pointed to the menu i couldnt see and ya know that's partly my fault we shouldn't of pulled up to order without knowing exactly what we wanted but people were behind us so we felt pressure to move up. Having a paper menu to hand out to the customer since the ordering at this place is done at the window which is unique would help. Sadly the place was empty and we actually almost decided to leave and go to panda express. So Im taking time to write this in hopes it will inspire change. Like i said in the beginning this store could be a contender to chik fil a but it will never be if your team is uninspired and dont care. You have to ask yourself why your lot is constantly empty. And its a shame when the potential has always...

The first time that I visited PDQ Sanford there was a line around the building for their drive-thru, so I ended up going somewhere else for lunch because I didn’t want to wait. The fact that there was a line, though, made me feel like it was probably good food, so I returned on a different day to give it a try. Since I had never been there before I was at first confused by their drive-thru setup, which has you look at a menu on a board and then drive around to give your order to a person at a window. The worker at the window was not very helpful at all; she took my order but didn’t ask me about things like what sauce or sides I wanted with my combo.

While I understand that this is a chain restaurant, I also wasn't very impressed by the fact that you could look into their drive-thru window and see shelves of boxed and canned products that they cook with and serve. It felt sloppy and unprofessional to have those things stored in a place where the customer can see them, and it just hammered home that they're not actually making most of the things that they serve you but just repackaging them from a can or a box.

After I paid and got around to the other window to pick up my food, the girl there asked me about which sauces I would like and gave me my food. I wish that I had checked my order before I left because when I got home, I realized that they left out my zucchini fries, which was the one item I was actually excited to try from their menu, so that was disappointing. Overall the food was average; the chicken tenders at Publix are better than PDQ, but their sauces were good and the fries that I did receive were decent. If I were to try PDQ Sanford again I would have to go inside to eat, as I wasn’t satisfied with the drive thru service or the quality...
