Food was fresh, the service was nice, had to wait on the chicken tenders for a few minutes and was told to pull around to the other drive thru for deliveries. Which was no problem at all. Overall, this Rally's is a decent place to get some fast food. Only thing was they had no slushies or ice cream/milkshakes available which was a bummer but typical issue for all fast food joints when you're ordering after 10pm.

It's always a blessing when customer service is prompt, the lady manager during the day really knows how to run her crew while. Really makes ever customer feel like their important, and first priority. I hope whoever owns this establishment gives her a nice size raise?

Stopped by after leaving a local convention event. Food was awesome! Was a bit of a wait, because it was busy, but it's Rally's so it's worth it! The employees were awesome, the music was blasting, and the lady who handed us our food? Her nails were FIRE. The only downside to this location? The local neighborhood isn't the greatest. But that's what happens sometimes. Overall, great place to swing by and grab something hot on your way through.

Bad place. Ordered a 5.99 combo and was charged 9.37 for it. I was charged full price on all items in combo meal. Then they refused to make it right. Don't go there. It sucks
