HORRENDOUS EXPERIENCE !!! Never ate at PDQ before but a colleague that I was with wanted to have his chicken salad so I accompanied him. Now, since I am a vegan and because there was nothing on the menu that didnt have meat in it, I asked for a salad without meat and asked him to have it vegan style and even picked my dressings that were not milk based. After the salad arrived I noticed it had cheese on it and even though I was not pleased I let it go because I was with a senior professor and didnt want him to feel the awkwardness of me being cranky. So I started eating my cheese salad and after a few bites I realize that they added chicken in my salad in small fragmented pieces, smaller in size than nuts, and it was everywhere, hiding under the lettuce, in and around the tomato and I felt so bad I cant describe. After I brought it up with the girl who had handed us the tray, she was sorry about the incident. I am still very upset and angry about it, I dont know how someone can work in a restaurant and not know what vegan is or know and not be sensitive about it. oh god I am so pissed, huh!!

Upon my first visit and (definitely not my last) I was thoroughly impressed by how good this restaurant was. Im definitely a chicken and fries fanatic. When I first walked in I was met with quality customer service by the ladies working the cashiers - one of them which was Shay. Id like to give a shout out to her! The food is great, very cost effective. For food this good I was blown away... Thank you so much PDQ for excellent service and fantastic food! I love the interior also, clean and well kept and neat inventions to watch your hands! More fast food restaurants need to be like THIS!

The food is VERY good. Their chicken is better than Chicfila, or any place around, and their fried zucchini is awesome. I have to give it an average rating, however because their food is very very expensive for the amount you get. You can go to a sit down restaurant for their prices, and they do not give you enough dipping sauce, but if you dont mind paying a lot go here. They have interesting tea flavors, and military discount days.

Great tasting and fresh food! Delicious and fresh home made fries and sauces. I normally like to put hot sauce (they have Franks Original here) on my chicken sandwich but not this time. I load it down with their house made ranch type dressing. Didnt even use ketchup with my fries. Used the ranch for that as well. :-) And on top of it all the staff is very friendly and professional. If you havent tried PDQ yet then youre missing out.

I experienced PDQ for the first time ever a few weeks ago, and thoroughly enjoyed my time in the restaurant. The staff was awesome! In addition to this, they had great gluten-free options for someone like me who has an intolerance. I enjoyed the size of my meal, the price of my meal, and how quickly it arrived. If I lived in the area this is definitely somewhere I would continue to visit because its one of the nicest places in town!

Such a great experience! The staff is extremely welcoming and super helpful with finding what was best for us!(it was our first time) They gave us the student discount, we didnt know there was one, and the food was delicious, I had the buffalo chicken burger, it was so tender and juicy! I went to the front to ask for an extra ranch sauce and the manager gave me that and 4 t-shirts for me and my friends! So nice!

Its good, the staff is adorable, you can tell they enjoy their job and that just makes the entire experience more awesome. How clever is a giant sink right there reminding to wash your hands? They do mostly chicken, usually involving honey and although its not the best Ive ever had, its pretty good for a fast food layout and side selection is uncommon for a... for example, the zucchini fries were really good.

Had my first experience at PDQ tonight around 8:00pm in the drive thru and it was great ! I love that you place your order with a live person not some box with a bunch of static in the background.The young man that took my order was very helpful after I explained this was my first time dining there and my order was ready by the time I pulled up to the second window and served to me with a smile

Forget those other fast food chicken joints. PDQ really stands by their standards of putting quality first. You do pay a small premium (~$1-$2 more), but the price is well worth it. The people who work at this particular PDQ are awesome. Always in a good mood and willing to serve you. Highly recommended!

Wtf? The sandwiches wasnt all that great, the chicken tasted like it was barely cooked and youre outside the gate of Fort Jackson and dont offer a discount? If I was gonna pay $8 bucks for a chicken sandwich meal, Ill go to Wendys. At least the breast on their sandwiches is bigger!

My wife and I just visited for the first time, and I must say we are very impressed. Staff very professional, clean and bright decor. Value is fair, but taste is fantastic. Nice experience. Also, if you have military id 50% off on Monday. Im definitely taking advantage of that.

EVERYTHING is cooked fresh! No microwaves, or frozen food. Staff is super nice and service is very fast. The restaurant is always clean, and it has a very open and fresh feeling. If youre looking for a good lunch, give it a shot. The salads and tenders are great!

Hot, tired, and hungry after a visit to the zoo, I hauled 4 kids in for a late lunch/early dinner. Definitely left happy!! Great food quickly and everyone was satisfied. The staff understand gluten free requirements. My grilled chicken salad was delicious!!!

Amazing food, very positive vibe. The restaurant has so many windows and provides a lot of natural lighting. Its open kitchen makes you feel like you are dining in a fancy restaurant. Crispy turkey sandwich hands down the best sanwich you will ever have.

My meal was great i love the staff and the food if I want to eat fast food trash I going to go to like Wendys or McDonalds but PDQ all around is great! People dont know what they are talking about when they talk trash about PDQ.

The staff here is great. They always seem happy and are very nice. The food is also always fresh. Ive never gotten a batch of fries or an order of tenders that seemed like they were sitting out too long. Great place.

Great food, but honestly too pricey for what it is. Almost 10 bucks for a meal isnt worth it for this food (the chicken tenders are really tiny). I only go when I have a coupon.

Clean and friendly, like every other PDQ Ive been to. They let me use their bathroom to change clothes after a funeral. Chicken strips and Buffalo sauce were what I needed.

Great food at a reasonable price! Service is friendly and quick. For those that are interested, they have two of those fancy Coke machines with a bevy of flavors.

Very friendly staff, quick, but Ive never been particularly impressed by either their fried or grilled chicken/turkey. Fries are unbreaded but very good.
