Hardee's

I don't know why I don't go to Hardee's more often.  I had an excellent little thick cheeseburger there tonight.  Also excellent french fries. And I got senior pricing on my soft drink.  Total up the whole package was like $4.75.  I'm sure there's not a better meal in Blythewood  for  that price.

Add in the fact that the restrooms were very clean with plenty of paper towels. The restaurant as a whole was clean and they cleaned the entire time I was there.

It took a little while but they brought the food to the table and it was all prepared fresh.  Overall I think they do a very good job and I'm looking at McDonald's across the street. The food I believe is better at Hardee's.  

Of course it's fast food so it cannot be better than three stars.

The Hardee's/Red Burrito is a remodeled store, making it more trendy than the typical Hardee's store in the Carolinas.  The location is off the east of Interstate 77, on the right; this location is not really clear to spot because it's a little aback from the main road.  

At my most recent visit (after 10am), I ordered the country-style steak biscuit with hash round and drink.  The steak biscuit and drink (Cherry Coke) was okay, the hash rounds tasted a little stale, but eatable.  At this particular time, nearly all tables were a mess; staff at location appeared unconcern about the fact that new guests were wiping off the tables for them so they can actually use them.  Restroom was clean and non-smelly.

Overall, I gave this location 2 out of 5 stars because I'm comparing it with other Hardee's and the other available choices at this particular location.  This location can do better, but it is setup for dealing with quantity, not quality, especially in the morning.

I'm not sure what the low review posters are expecting from a fast food restaurant. This Hardee's is relatively new, and it's always clean. The employees have always been fast and courteous, and I come here pretty often. The burgers are a step up from most other fast food places. I also like that I have the option to substitute a turkey patty instead of beef. The sides and other menu items are pretty typical fast food fare.

I'm giving it five stars for cleanliness, order accuracy, employee friendliness, speed, and quality of the food.
