A new Carl's Jr. opened up recently in Missouri City, so this is my first taste of  a real Carl's Jr. burger ever!

When we pulled up to the fast food restaurant , I noticed the parking lot was very clean, no food, bags, or napkins strewn across the lot. It was very pleasant to look at, the outside was still new-looking and presentable.

The inside is bright and also very clean, looked like a very hip hamburger joint. After I scanned the menu for which seemed like quite awhile and we all got our orders together, I finally was ready to order. I walked up to the counter in anticipation of my order, there where two people ( I assume at least one was a cashier) behind the counter playing around and not acknowledging me. For a few seconds I just stood there waiting to be noticed, although I was right in front of them. Then suddenly one left and the other lady smiled and turned to see me. Yay! So I then started to give our order, as I was she was clicking away at the screen in front of her. She reiterated the whole order back to me and she got the whole order right the first time, that was nice. Handed me the cups for our self-fill drinks and handed me a number which would identify the order to us.

We then shuffled over to the drink station, everything was in it's place and very orderly. I tried some of their sweet tea, I really enjoyed it , it was not too sweet, I thought it was pretty perfect.

So we sat and waited for our order to be delivered to us, pretty cool for fast food! After about maybe five minutes or so, the cashier came right up and served us. We ordered everything for each of us so we all got what we wanted in front of us and started eating. I got the Famous Star with Cheese combo, the fries weren't hot, not old just not hot. They were good though just a little too salty for my taste. The burger had mayonnaise and ketchup with some sort of relish type dressing on it, it tasted alright. I couldn't really tell the difference between this and a Burger King burger.  Noah got a burger that I totally forgot the name of ,that had two slices of cheddar, two slices of American cheese, bacon , the meat patty on a sourdough bun . He loved the french fries and he couldn't say enough about the burger. He wants to come back about 3 or4 times a month just to get this sandwich. Lita and my mother ( Dot) shared fish and chips, considering Lita wasn't hungry she devoured a whole fish plank. Dot said she knew the battered fish was frozen, but it was good and hot, so she enjoyed it. All our fries were not hot. We had some shakes with whip cream, they were pretty tasty.

Overall, I felt Carl's Jr. was a nice clean place to eat, bathrooms were clean and the staff was nice enough. The food was acceptable, not exceptional, but acceptable. The prices are a little high, I think they forgot to adjust the prices from California to Texas.
