Hands down the worst KFC/Taco Bell we've ever been to. Since they opened a few years ago they have consistently poor food quality/quantity and order mistakes, especially in the drive through. We live in this town so we have been several times over the years and still more often than not, our orders are wrong, or the food in sub-standard compared to other KFC's and we've been to. Very disappointing. Hubby even got a nice metal shaving in his chicken strip one day.

We decided to give the restaurant one more chance. And once again, we were disappointed. First, we heard the waitress answer another patrons question with a white lie. The patron mistook our waitress for the previous manager and instead of correcting her, let the woman gush on. We waited several minutes for menus, once we received them, we ordered drinks, and proceeded to wait for our drinks and finally, our orders to be taken. I ordered a mimosa, and received it in a very large wine glass about 1/4 of the way filled. It wasn't a full mimosa. I ordered the ribeye steak and eggs. Medium rare for the steak, it came to me rare. I could only eat a portion of it and didn't want to send it back, due to the waiting time. AGAIN! I also ordered wheat toast with my food, it came as white toast. Not happy. Hubby had biscuits and gravy, and he said it's not difficult to screw up biscuits and gravy., and they were okay. We were very unhappy and will not be back again. After our payment was processed through our financial institution a day or so later, our waitress, Jody, padded her tip to make it an even $5.00. While we usually tip well, we were upset by the lousy service for the 2nd time, so we left $3.58 to make our payment an even $39.00. While it wasn't a fabulous tip she was lucky to receive anything. I wonder now if I should bring it to the owners attention.

My husband and I often attend early afternoon movies and enjoy coming here for happy hour. There is a separate happy hour menu and discounted drinks. My favorite dish is the deep fried green beans. The hamburgers are also excellent. Upon sitting, you are served with complimentary popcorn. The place is nicely furnished a la Pottery Barn and we have always experienced pleasant and timely service. It is nice to be able to walk directly in after a movie. Glad it is there!

Needed to find a breakfast place in Yelm and ended up here. Lots of locals were in the place which is normally a good sign. It was! Had a $12 breakfast with coffee that filled me up. It didnât upset my stomach and it tasted good. The place is kept clean. Service was exceptional. The meal was hot and tasted good. I wasnât rushed and could have stayed a while to get work done.

We had left Northwest Trek heading to Oregon and were looking for lunch when we noticed a nearly full parking lot at Jim-Bobs. Figured it was a good option and we were right. They have a varied menu of BBQ, burgers, breakfast and several other items. We discovered it was a local eatery with a faithful customer base since the order taker welcomed many by name. Itâs not a five star dining establishment, but a local BBQ joint with good food.
