Five Stars Is Not Enough for This Burger King—Transcendence on a Bun

Let me be clear: I am not a casual fast food enjoyer. I am a seeker of meaning, a philosopher of fries, and on my journey through the highways of existence, I have discovered an oasis of flavor and surreal enlightenment at the Annandale Burger King.

As I entered at 2:46 AM (because yes, it’s open 24 hours, which is proof that we are living in the future), I was greeted not by mere employees, but by culinary shamans ready to guide me on a taste pilgrimage. The floor tiles shimmered with possibility, each one whispering “Have it your way.” And have it my way, I did.

The line? A crucible of anticipation. Every moment in queue heightened my senses. The menu glowed like a digital Dead Sea Scroll, full of ancient secrets and modern flame-grilled prophecy. I ordered a Whopper with cheese, fries, and a Coke—basic? No. Foundational. Like ordering the Mona Lisa with a side of fries.

When the food arrived, I beheld the Whopper: a masterpiece of lettuce architecture, tomato geometry, and onion philosophy. The sesame seeds on the bun? Arranged by fate itself. I took my first bite, and for one glorious second, I glimpsed the infinite. My mind soared. My taste buds did the Macarena. If Plato were alive, he would write a new Republic just to praise this burger.

The fries—golden, crunchy, and scientifically engineered to be the perfect vessel for ketchup (which, by the way, flowed from the dispenser with the precision of a Swiss watch and the poetry of a mountain stream).

Atmosphere? Impeccable. The light hum of the soda fountain provided the background track to my existential unraveling. Other diners in the room became fellow travelers on this surreal journey. One man asked for extra pickles and was granted them—without question. I wept.

The staff are unsung heroes, knights of the BK round table. When my friend spilled his drink, an employee materialized with napkins in hand, moving with the agility of a caffeinated ninja and the compassion of a favorite grandma. They run this place like it’s Buckingham Palace, but with more onion rings.

If you’re not ready to have your expectations shattered, your worldview expanded, and your life utterly changed—maybe stick to salad bars. But if you crave adventure, flavor, and a touch of the absurd, the Annandale Burger King is waiting for you.

Come hungry. Leave a legend. All...

If I could give "zero stars" I would. I visited this location on April 30, 2023 at approximately 8:00pm, the service was fine at the drive through and the line moved quickly but the problem arose when I arrived at the window to pick my order up. I was greeted at the window by a lady named Vanessa (later it was learned that she is the team lead,) I asked if I could get a few zesty onion ring sauses with my order and she turned around, picked one up, and through it in the bag. I then asked if I could have a couple more and stated that I didn't mind paying for them, I just wanted a couple more for my kids cause they like them. Vanessa rolled her eyes, slammed the window and walked away without saying a word to me. I sat in my vehicle at the window and another staff member opened the window and asked what was wrong, I explained what happened and asked for a couple onion ring sauses and tried to hand him my debit card, Vanessa looked at me from the other side of the restaurant and screamed, "only two per order." I said that's nice, I only have one and then asked to speak to the manager. The other staff member that opened the window advised that the managers name is Roberto and that he was currently off. I then asked who was in charge, he pointed at Vanessa and stated that she is the team lead. By this time several other staff members had walked up to the window and one asked what was wrong, I explained that I wanted to get a couple onion ring sauses for my kids to eat with their order. He stated "all this is over onion ring sauses?" I said yeah, it's ridiculous, he shook his head yes and handed me two sauses. I then tried to pay him, he said no that's not necessary and have a good night. I thanked him and went about my way.

This whole situation was just ridiculous, everyone seemed nice except for Vanessa, she was a very hateful and rude person. I will never visit this location again and that fine, we're in DC there is literally tons of BKs I just wanted to explain what happened in hopes that this matter is addressed with Vanessa, I don't want to see her loose her job but I would like to see proper customer service and people skills explained to her.

Thank for reading, GOD bless, and...

At this location in Fairfax on May 29th. The service took a bit too long after making an order. I don't mind waiting as long as I hear my number and get my food but my guests Ivon (ee-von) and Ed weren't happy after 3 customers already had gotten their food until our number was called. Not long at around 5:52 pm the power went out, 5 minutes after we finished eating, we were thinking of desserts before we left and I believe the power was out for about 5-10 minutes I recall the hour was 6 but I can't recall the minutes but the power was restored but not everything was working after the wake-up call was about. The only working register was by the Drive-Thru window. Anywho I placed an order for some ice creams and they didn't have cones but the cups which was fine with me. The purchase was made and we waited and later on after 15 minutes of waiting, I understand that the power went out but really it shouldn't take long to get it. I understand there were like 10-15 people who were making orders and were still waiting I even stood to the left side of the lines for pick up and the one lady was frustrated on waiting and wanted her card back because they're holding on to their card for too long to make the purchase. I had to guess they're understaffed because I only saw 2 women in the kitchen 1 woman putting the foods in the bags and 2 guys one by the Drive-Thru register & the other confirming about the orders and who gave me the cup holder with Ice cream he didn't even labeled them in case if there's no confusion but we got our ice cream and left cause that was an odd experience. I'll still eat at Burger King but not at...
