Great experience at the Burger King in Irvine! The drive-thru service was quick and friendly. Morgan took my order and was super polite and professional — everything came out hot and accurate. Really appreciate the excellent service!

It was enjoyable, but then again, it always is when you're with grandkids. My only criticism is that the service can be occasionally slow as home deliveries seem to take precedent over those who've made the journey to be in store.

It was particularly busy this day with exceptionally long queues. Because of this we used the computer to order including customising certain meals. Out of 5 meals, 2 that were asked to be plain burgers (double checked the order before placing it) came with everything on it (sauce + salad) and 1 meal was just the completely wrong meal. The staff were great about the mix up AND they replaced all 5 meals so that they were all warm and the family could eat all at the same time.

Felt safe with their table separators. Stayed inside and food was fresh and hot.
