Carl's Jr. Costa Mesa Reviews
Stopped by for a quick bite, needed to kill some time so decided to eat inside. I was really impressed by the amazing service from the young gentleman on the floor. Went above and beyond, which is rare. Thank you guys for a delicious meal and such awesome customer service
The .manager was so kind and personable. I loved her attitude.
The food was good and they have great customer service!
I hate to admit it.. but I come to this Carl's Jr quite often.. usually at least once a week. I've had the pleasure of being served and having my order taken by Michael [typically later in the evening] many times now. He's truly an asset to your company. I've never had an order wrong. My food has always been hot. Michael has always been patient with me, and he never seems frustrated with my often "odd requests" like a variety of different sauces, or extra Oreo in my milkshake. This guy is always on and is super nice too. I hope management reads this and realizes how lucky they are to have this guy!
VERY nice, polite, caring, and kind employees. The Big Burger (not on the menu) has been one of my favorites for years. Go check it out. I love the charbroiled taste of the Carl's Jr burgers! And the Cris cut fries and so good!
Guillermo has an amazing positive attitude! He directs him self to you with a lot of professionalism and respect. Which now a days it’s hard to find a respectful n kind person like this gentleman! Keep up the great positive attitude Guillermo 9-23/2025 11:50 am
This corporate owned Carl’s Jr. is awesome. They try to cook all burgers to order so they arrive at your table hot & delicious!
After the beach we went to Carl's Jr. Through the drive-thru. We just ordered three hamburgers. Just something to hold us over till we got home. They were sufficient. I guess after some time at the beach they just hit the spot. I've always had good service at this location.
Fast and friendly. Though the app is ordered through was not. These guys were excellent and the food great! They made up for the mishap on the app. Good crew at this location.
The cleanest fast food restaurant I’ve been to in the last 5 years. The famous star and western bacon cheeseburger taste fresh and it’s been a long time since a Carls Jr taste fresh. Kudos to the Manager and Operations Team at this location.
Got in just before 7am on a Friday and thought I would go in to order. Glad I did guy with no name tag took my order and his smile was infectious. I ordered the loaded breakfast burrito. Combo with ok and the has browns for $9.90. The dining area was clean and uncrowded, and the view out the window was of the tastefully landscaped area featuring succulents, well trimmed bushes and dark bark. The loaded burrito with pico de gallo salsa was warm and tasty. Cons: both had a leather style back but the seats squared off and were hard plastic. Not very comfortable. Music was a little on the load side pop. No biggie. Only bummer, when I sat down a was on the other side of a big “2 for $6” mix and match break fest special, yep for $2 more I could have had a second breakfast burrito or Sandwhich. A pleasant start to the day!
Date: 2/27/2024 Time of day - Afternoon Order - Super Star with Cheese Combo (Small) Menu price - $10.39 Receipt price - $10.39 Tax - $.08 Paid $11.19 Good service from the cashier Wait time - less than 3 minutes The burgers were made to order and it was absolutely delicious. 2 beef patties with cheese on sesame seed buns. To include lettuce, tomato and pickles. It also comes with onions and special sauce but I wanted it without. Good presentation. It was well wrapped. French fries were fresh. Hot and nicely salted. Dining room was nice and quiet. Mop equipment was left out, must had a spill from earlier. Restaurant was clean, but it just needed a light sweep under some of the tables. Restrooms were constantly used. Parking lot is clean but a pothole seems to be growing from the recent rain near the driveway. Moderate parking. About less than 24 cars. A standalone restaurant. Will come back #youruberdriveronbreak
Went last night before heading out of the Newport area. Person taking order didn't seem to know how to apply a coupon from the drive thru order system, took over 30 minutes for 6 cars to get through the line. Never even got straws for our drinks.
Absolutely worst experience at a Carl’s Jr. that I have ever been to in the 40 years. I have been coming to Carl’s Jr. I am a local and I will never ever come back here to order Carl’s Jr. from this location again they took forever. They did not care their attitude was very flippant. Emma was too interested in flirting with the guy behind the counter with her instead of serving the customer.
I recently had a terrible experience at this location. I used the drive thru service and was advised to pull around front while they make my order which I didn’t mind. However, when I got home the burgers were completely inedible; the buns were drenched in sauce to the point the hun was soggy, the bun also appeared to have finger marks. I tried calling the location to reconcile the issue but they don’t have a valid phone number on their google page? Atleast the one above does not go through. Overall I’m not happy with my experience and dissatisfied that I paid for something that I couldn’t eat.
