Burger King

VERDICT: Noooo!!!!! Despite being initially impressed by the cleanliness and how well the dining room area is kept, I cannot recommend ever visiting this Burger King. This is not a simple language barrier this is something quite different, an admittedly a first for me. I've been to 12 different countries. Thousands of restaurants. I used to even run one 800 ft underwater.. Never have I been held hostage by the staff and told to stay there until they finish their phone call 😳 I was with my son and we just came back from IHOP which we had a lovely experience at but not really my kind of fair or food. We had a wonderful experience there but I wanted to go for a really good coffee, and there was one that was close by. Now I really do enjoy Burger King's Whopper juniors. It was right across the street and I had 15 minutes to kill before our cab came. I thought I would go across the street and pick up a quick bite to eat before we entered the cab. THIS WAS INDEED A MISTAKE. After taking pictures of how clean and how nice the dining room was especially that really cool Coke machine that they have, I was told to show them my phone. I did so as ordered by the female cashier. I even showed them that I was a Google guide and travel vloger. This is where they decided not to give me my order and then she said for me to keep waiting and I then had to ask about my burgers which were now sitting there for at least 8 minutes getting cold and I tried to explain to them that I have a cab to catch but apparently that wasn't very important. In fact she told me to wait and it was something of a issue with her as she was contacting someone. Nobody in the restaurant spoke any English when I try to get confirmation from anyone there on what was going on What was really interesting and something that I didn't think about the time is that she requested that I show her my phone. Is this Burger King's current policy that if you have a phone with you and you happen to bring it out that the front desk needs to see it? Is there some kind of elicit activity going on here? I don't know, but this is the very first time I've actually ever felt in the thousands of restaurants and places all over the entire world this has ever transpired. Because the language barrier I had to specifically ask is there anything else that I need to be waiting for on my order and then they just kept telling me just stay here and wait 😳 After pleading with the person that are cab is here, they still told me to keep waiting.. Another person finally gave me my order, but could not explain to me why they were holding me there. Even after giving me my order they kept telling me to wait, being the only English spoken with the word picture being said. I don't know who she was calling but of course I didn't understand Spanish, but I plan to get the on the fly translator in the future if you're coming into Hillsboro I guess that's required. It's so strange that I can literally go to South America or even Mexico and the establishments have people that actually are bilingual but not here in Portland Oregon. I've also never been accosted for taking a photo inside and establishment before or doing FaceTime or making a video call. But this was the first.. What initially turned out to be a great first impression became an absolute frightening experience for me. Because my colleagues are there on business and we're here to build the data center, a person video called me and asked me if this would be a great location to go ahead and have a lunch as he also enjoys Burger King there on all the Air force bases. After my colleague opon hearing the interaction, we have decided not to have our team order nor patronage this location under any circumstances. Rarely do I ever leave a bad review, but this place absolutely warrants it. Folks , this person even asked me my name to give to this person she was on the phone with. In fact the only other time this has happened to me is when I was entering a nuclear facility...

It's a Burger King. It's fast food at high prices. The staff is always friendly to me. And this location has always got my order right.(no pickles)... they are decently fast..and are always polite . Granted I am usually here in the hours just off main eating hours.. 11 am, 3 pm, etc... Once the beverage dispenser was out of Dr Pepper.. and seemed to only have diet drinks and fruit drinks... and the fries could use a dash more salt... but otherwise.. when I'm willing to pay 15 bucks for a "value" meal....this is a decent place to get a whopper, no pickles.

Bro how do you forget 90% of a large combo. No joke I ordered a large swiss chicken sandwich and all I got was the burger… no fries, no drink, no condiments, nothing. Ordered from Uber eats and bag was sealed by restaurant. They massacred the receipt idk maybe they were hoping I couldn’t find the survey code or something. But whoever made my order is on drugs. This place sucks they don’t even answer the phone so you can’t even inform them how much they suck. I have to go down there in person to tell these people how bad they are at their job.
