No McDonald's visit is complete without the signature World Famous Fries®. These golden sticks of potato goodness, made from premium Russet Burbank and Shepody potatoes, strike the ideal balance between crispy shell and fluffy core, creating an irresistible crave-worthy side. Pair them with the fluffy, crispy Hashbrowns or fresh, crisp Apple Slices for a little extra zest and crunch.

I was pleasantly surprised when I had actually received my food and it looked like a sit down restaurant burger not a typical fast food chain burger. This was the quarter pounder deluxe

I'm giving them 5 stars for the simple fa t that I sat in the Wendy's drive through right across the parking lot in the same spot for 10 minutes and when we finally got to the speakers she told us to hold on so we waited 5 more mins then we pulled right to McDonald's and had our food in less than 5 mins! Rode past Wendy's and the same cars was sitting in line looking crazy while I'm riding past eating my fries

Can't do five stars for food because hey, it's a McDonald's, but the employees here are always helpful, polite, and FAST. If you gotta eat Mickey D's, get it from here. They're awesome.

Pulled up because I was hungry, drive through atmosphere didn't really count but the people working were so nice and the girl almost gave me the wrong bag and they corrected her but it was positive reinforcement. Food was so fresh it burnt my mouth. Couldn't have asked for a better burger man. High fives team.

Wasn't taking cards in drive thru, but waited until you had given your whole order to ask your form of payment.

We use the drive thru at this location quite often. Have never had a bad experience. Workers are kind and courteous, food is hot and fresh. Update- downloaded the app, lots of perks and food is fresh and hot when you get there!

South University drive thru is fairly quick especially if you are ordering from their app. You may have to wait a few minutes for your order to finish being prepared but it is fresh and hot. It hasn't been sitting under the heat lamp for a hour or more.
