I've been to many a McDonald's in my career as a red blooded American, but this one definitely takes the cake. Not only is there a solid probability that you receive a random item in the place of what you actually ordered, but the wait times can rival that of the Cronut line. Better yet, just factor into your trip approximately as much wait time as a 10 course tasting menu at your favorite fine dining establishment. Sure, the wait may be comparable, but just keep reminding yourself that you are only paying McDonald's prices (but then again, you are still eating McDonald's food too…). Also, perhaps a first for a McDonald's anywhere, they actually ran out of soda. I mean, that's like a KFC running out of chicken.
The food was okay because it was prepared fresh but it took FOREVER to get my hamburger (no cheese, I'm on a diet) and small fries. Three people who came in after me got their food before me.
The counter guy who took my order kept giving me the stink eye and I have no idea why. There wasn't anybody else in the place when I came in and ordered. I was wearing dress pants and a dress shirt so it's not like I just crawled out of the sewer or anything.
Walk a couple of blocks to the McDonald's at 51st & Broadway instead. I would not come back here.
Even for McDonalds, this is pretty bad. For Hell's Kitchen, a hood surrounded by so many quality eateries, it would seem difficult to understand why folks would head here in the first place.
Three reasons why patronage is bound to happen:
1) It's open late. 2) Tourists are more familiar with McDonalds than all of that crazy, exotic, and scary mess we call Thai food (Bangkok Boulevard yelp.com/list/bangkok-bo…). 3) Hell's Kitchen in general has fewer *obvious* cheap eats options. For you folks that are dining at Lali, Tulcingo and other Latin eateries on 10th, kudos to you.
But I digress. The aforementioned reasons are still not enough to keep anyone coming back here. Food is naturally mediocre, but it still falls a few notches short of late night fast food glory. Case in point, it's bad when even drunkards are rejecting chicken nuggets and a big mac.
The evening crowds attract a lot of sketchy characters. it makes for fun entertainment for some and it also magically coincides with an equally disgusting bathroom. If it's here or Port Authority, I might actually shoot for Port Authority. Then again, kegel exercises are highly underrated.
Worst aspect has been the service. It's okay, few people are motivated to provide good service in place like this but sharp tongues and attitudes aside, they are likely to mess up your order more often than not. When you combine incompetence (staff) with incoherence (late night crowd), you're bound to get some surprising(ly bad) results.
