The food was just OK. The price of the little burgers is crazy expensive. The chicken rings are normally pretty good, this time they lacked flavor. Service was so, so, couldn't hear the person taking our order, so had no repour when she did interact with us, didn't even ask if we wanted sauces. For a bag of cheese burgers 10 baby burgers, and a bag of chicken rings and a small fish nuggets was like $30. Never see anyone in the restaurant. The night we went there was only 1 car in line.

I ordered this food (Bacon Bundle w Onion Rings) at exactly 2:09AM. They said it would be a 15 minute wait, so I got to driving. I didn’t expect much because it was 2 in the morning and i’m just really hungry. On my drive there were no cars and let’s just say I got there really fast. Got on drive thru cause I was too lazy to walk in there. Waited about 5 minutes because there were people on the drive thru but no biggie. I got the food and let me just say it looked immaculate honestly expect so much worse especially because i’ve heard horrible stories about people not feeling and let me tell you that I devoured my meal on the drive. Without a doubt the food was most definitely made with love and I shall reciprocate the next time I order. Compliments to the chef. I honestly do not care if I do not feel so well tomorrow this is the best meal of my life. I will tell my family once I arrive home. IF YOU WANT AMAZING FOOD AND THE SAME EXPERIENCE YOU MUST ORDER AT EXACTLY 2:09AM

Great tasting sliders freshly made!! Restaurant was clean as well as the bathrooms. Service was top notch. Fries could have been cooked a little better but overall like the free refils on soda and the sliders were delicious

My wife and I went there for Valentine’s Day. Now before your jaw drops in confusion, read this out. Every year for the last 6, we have been doing this on Valentine’s Day. Friends of our mentioned it and have been doing ever since. You do have to make reservations for this night, be sure to book early because THEY ALWAYS pack out. They decorate the inside with all kinds of Valentine decor from colorful hanging mobiles to linen table cloths and reserved tables with a name plaque on it. They have an area on the back wall set up for photo ops and have wait service at the tables to take and bring your orders. It’s not your stereotypical dinner out but if you live White Castle, you have to experience it at least once. It is the same menu as always but they print it out on special valentine themed paper to make it easy to order from the table. The staff will even refill your drinks or take a last minute add-on. I gave the food a 4 star rating, after all it is “Fast Food” but the decorations and table service was great. We will book again next year. Thank you White Castle for your Valentine themed event
