50 Best Fast Food Restaurants in Tyler

“They were crazy busy lunch rush but my food was cooked perfectly and it was pretty wasn't all slapped together. I got the blt with fries to go. The employees at the register were friendly and calm and collected they repeated my order and for it being very very busy I was surprised that I got my food pretty quickly and everything tasted fresh and the fries were nice and hot and the price was not bad 7.99 +tax drink not included. I will definitely be returning to this restaurant 😋“

“Wanted to give a HUGE shoutout to this Tyler, TX location! My husband left his wallet on the counter and the employees turned it in and kept it safe until we were able to pick it up the following day! All cash and cards were still there! So grateful for this blessing, the employees here ROCK!!“

“The drive through lines during lunch were the longest I've seen at any fast food restaurant anywhere. AFAIK, the fanaticism over chicken marinated in pickle juice is only outdone by the secret menu In-n-Out Burger fans.

Pro Tip: Go inside when the lines are long, or order in the app. I had zero wait to order inside. Meanwhile the double drive through patrons puttered along in the 97 degree heat.“

“First time eating at Canes. Food is pretty good. Chicken fresh and moist. Sauce is great. Service was good. Would eat here again. Only things is while most tables were empty, I could only find one clean one and the music is far too loud. Couldn’t even have conversation due to the volume.“

“The Patty Melt is always a favorite of mine.“

“Great staff and even better food.“

“Very friendly employees and great ice cream“

“disappointing tonight. no hot sauce or napkins I even asked for them but nothing. Come on guys“

“Wonderful food and wonderful service!!!“

“great food great service great hospitality“

“I just want to say that i love the coffee its amazing 🤍“

“As far as Chick-fil-A locations go, this one has pretty good food. Inexplicably, lunch at Chick-fil-A is generally tastier and more high-quality than when you get dinner. This likely has something to do with the fact that adults tend to work in the mornings and afternoons at fast food, while teenagers work more of the night shifts. At most fast food restaurants, and particularly at this one, the drive-through during dinner hours is like going to a high school social mixer -- there is a lot more flirting and socializing going on with the team members than actual service. So, expect much longer lines for dinner, and expect the food to not be quite as good.

However, this location is usually pretty fast and reliable for lunch. The only downside is that the parking situation around the building is deplorable. There are very few parking spots within the confines of the restaurant itself, forcing people who want to eat in to park around the periphery of the restaurant. This causes logistical issues, as people are streaming in and out through the drive-through line, which typically serpentines around the building. But let's face it: being in a ponderous drive-through line at a Chick-fil-A is a rite of passage; you encounter a crowd of people at virtually every Chick-fil-A in the United States. In fact, if you pull up to a Chick-fil-A location at peak lunch hours and the place is deserted, you have reason to worry. You might not know something that everyone else in the area knows.

But I digress: this Chick-fil-A is a solid four stars, particularly at lunchtime. For dinner, you're probably looking in the 2 to 3 star range, but some nights there's just no time to make dinner. You gotta do what you gotta do.“

“hector is the bomb!! friendly service“

“Freddys has allowed the car community in Tyler to put on a great night once a month of cruise nights and we are so thankful for those that came out and made the first cruise night a success ! The food was great service was great and we look forward to seeing them every month ! Thanks again Freddy’s and the staff!!!“

“I have stopped here several times. They are always great with service and the food is always how I order. The last time I went through the drive thru, they were not able to scan my app on my phone and I missed out on a promotion through the app and had to pay more. Otherwise it has been a positive experience there.“

“We went through the drive through. Prices were reasonable and fodd was amazing. I am a big fan of Whataburger but my husband and I both decided today that every time we have to go to Tyler, Juicys is our spot. It was like a home made hamburger real patty, nice and thick with juice running down your arm.“

“Bueno is my go-to for fast food texmex so I visit the Old Bullard Rd. location pretty often. Service is always very friendly and the food at this location is above par with good portions. Consistently, the ingredients are fresh and they don't skimp on toppings.“

“They have the best employees! So cheerful & helpful. And of course, the food is great!“

“Went for dinner as we were traveling through the area. Facility was clean and very friendly employees. Young man named Giovanni was so nice and made sure we didn't need anything while we waited for our food. Usually employees do not worry about their customers. This young man went out of his way to insure the dining area didn't need anything. Even greeted a regular by name. It was nice to see someone so young with respect for his elders. We definitely need more young men and ladies with his positive mannerism.“

“nicest cleanest DQ, ive ever been to.“

“Love this Christian based restaurant. Awesome service every time we've eaten here. Today the cashier, Youana, was so sweet and helpful. The food is always fresh and hot. The store has always been clean.“

“I went through the drive thru and ordered a beef taco salad, got it into my car and dropped it destroying the salad. I went inside to pay for a replacement salad since it was no fault of the store. They replaced my salad at no charge even after I explained that it was my fault. Thank you for great customer service!“

“Very surprised with sbarro as it is in a gas station the employees make fresh food every 2 hours on the dot to keep up with their standards and health code. They cut fresh veggies for the food EVERY DAY!! fresher product than I ever had working at Dominos! Customer service is great and any issues are always handled appropriately by the managers. If you ever have an issue, keep your receipt and talk to any of their managers and they'll take care of you 🖤“

“When I got there the food was still fresh and hot. I ordered 5 pizzas total. They forgot to make one of my pizzas with the correct crust. So they remade the pizza with no problem and i didn’t wait no longer than 3min for it. They also let me keep the other pizza so I walked out with 6 boxes of pizza. That was the way of saying sorry. They was very polite and professional.“

“Shout out to the lunch crew! You guys did a great job today. It was my best stop in a burger king in years. The older woman in the lobby was my favorite. She made me feel right at home!“

“Best chicken strips in town !!!!!!!!!!“

“Apparently the only place you can get the steak finger basket on the Dairy Queen menu is in Texas! I live in TN. ?. So I happened to need to go to Texas for a family trip... And after 30 years was finally able to satisfy a craving for a steak finger basket! ?“

“It’s not just any other pizza place.

From the management to the employees, The customer service is better than a five star restaurant, exceptional every time .
These people pride in their work and it Absolutely shows. Not to mention The food is always delicious.
I would like to Particularly Recognize Randy, Brandy and Tina, for always going above and beyond with a Friendly and courteous disposition.
I will always be loyal to Pizza Hut.
Five stars, highly recommend!“

“They are always friendly and smile. The customer service is great. We go here a lot. It really is the best sonic.

Parking: Only thing is the driveway when the highway was redone it’s a good bump going in and out from the road, go slow.“

“I love this Taco Bell. The workers are friendly and professional. The food is also delicious. You can tell they do things the right way here. No half assing. I love this Taco Bell the most because it’s nice and peaceful. I can go in and chow down and watch some YouTube and nobody ever disturbs me. The environment alone is 10/10 P.S. for all the bad reviews.. the night shift is going to be full of immature kids who don’t care at any fast food restaurant. It’s best to avoid getting fast food if it’s not lunch or breakfast. That’s when the adults are working. If you go at midnight don’t expect it to be the same as it would be at lunch“

“The usual Chick-fil-a expectations were met: clean, well-staffed, efficient, polite service, and price-friendly meals. All CFA's are more than satisfying, but this particular store was on my visit- somehow - a bit more inviting than some of the others. We really enjoyed the experience!“

“Breakfast Served All Day... Need more be said?“

“French dips enough said.....“

“Mother Francis Hospital in Tyler cafeteria closes early in the day. I had spent eight days in the hospital with my mother and it was time to go home. I was starving, so the first friendly appearing fast food restaurant was this one. The campus appeared well maintained all around, including the building itself. I did not go inside, but I imagine the interior is just as attractive as the exterior. The order was we quickly and accurately taken. I received the order just as quickly from smiling faces. The food was quite tasty. It's a good place to stop“

“Candice , the manager at Taco Bell goes above and beyond for not only her customers but also her staff and you can tell.
this is a very well ran establishment and she is very genuine and cares about her work. This Taco Bell will always be the one I choose to go to because of Candice. Thank you 🙏“

“Had the special chicken strip basket for $5.99. Just good food, all the time!“

“Love the place. We have had just about every item on the menu and we love it. The owners and their sons do an amazing job with the customer service. Highly recommend. Try the enchiladas ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Great service from the staff today!!!! Love bringing my family here :)!“

“We just used the app for the first time and it was fast and fabulous!“

“Taco Bell Saved My Marriage & My Soul – A Love Letter to the Bell 🌮

Every time we pull into the Taco Bell parking lot, my family fights over who gets to walk in first—just to be the first to inhale that intoxicating, beefy, cheesy, slightly mysterious but undeniably magical aroma. It’s like stepping into a warm hug from the universe itself.

Let me be clear: Taco Bell saved my marriage. Before, my wife and I argued over where to eat, what to cook, and why I refuse to eat kale. Now? We simply look into each other’s eyes, nod knowingly, and head straight to Taco Bell. Boom. Relationship harmony, sealed with a Baja Blast toast.

Special occasions? Forget fancy steakhouses—nothing says “I love you” like a shared Cheesy Gordita Crunch under the soft glow of the menu board. Anniversary? Taco Bell. Birthday? Taco Bell. Birth of our firstborn? Okay, hospital first… then Taco Bell.

The food? Culinary poetry wrapped in a tortilla. Every bite is a love story between flavor and affordability. For just a few dollars, I can achieve true bliss while my wallet remains intact. It’s the only place where a feast fit for kings can be ordered from a drive-thru speaker at 2 AM.

If you haven’t had a spiritual awakening via Crunchwrap Supreme, do yourself a favor—stop reading, get in the car, and go. Taco Bell isn’t just a restaurant. It’s a lifestyle.

11/10. Would fistfight my own children to be first through the door again.“

“Chick-Fil-A will always be one of my favorite take-out choices. Their food is always top tier, and so is their service! Every employee is very kind and helpful. This place is definitely super family friendly! Chick-Fil-A is also very speedy, despite how intimidating long lines can be. I’ve never waited longer than 5 minutes for my order to come through, even when with a larger group of people. On top of such valuable qualities, they’ve never made a mistake with my orders. If I ask for something, they do it and do it right. I absolutely do recommend.“

“very nice people. an clean area.“

“This place will always be a family classic morning noon and night and this location is worth dining in sitting by the window and enjoying your fresh hot food (biscuits & gravy must be added to your order) these employees were just fantastic and working together with smiles on their faces yes I will take grilled onions and jalapenos on my grilled chicken sandwich anyday?????“

“i wanted to give a special shout-out to tiffany!! she’s absolutely wonderful and so so kind!! when our mobile order went to the wrong location, she didn’t hesitate to remake our order here free of charge 🤩 there’s a reason this is my go-to whataburger 😁“

“It started like any good Texas night—with a guitar in the backseat, a hunger in my soul, and a lady riding shotgun who could out-sing the radio. We weren’t looking for magic, just a place to fill the void. And there it was, glowing in orange and white like a beacon: Whataburger.

I ordered the patty melt. She went for the classic No. 1 with cheese. We sat in the parking lot, windows down, music low, unwrapping those burgers like gifts from the meat gods. The first bite hit like a perfect chord—melty, smoky, and just a little greasy, the kind of flavor that makes you hum with your mouth full.

Somewhere between the fries and that last sip of Dr Pepper, we realized we didn’t need a fancy dinner or a stage to feel alive. Just a hot burger, six strings, and each other.

Whataburger didn’t just feed us. It became the soundtrack to a memory we’ll never forget.“

“I have not eaten here in years. I was a child the last time I remember having it. I ordered from the drive thru. The line was a bit slow moving, but makes sense for a catfish restaurant. I expected hot fish when my turn came and that is exactly what i received in return for my patience. So i didn't mind the wait at all. The lady at the drive thru was really nice and had a sweet attitude when taking my order. She didn't rush me at all. The catfish tasted the same, if not a tad bit salty from what I remember, but not in a bad way. The filets were fairly large. I ordered the 8 piece, not realizing they would be as big as they were. It's easily a shareable meal and that is what i ended up doing. The hushpuppies were different from the long cylinder shaped ones I remember. The new hushpuppies weren't great to me. The flavor was just not good and also tasted a bit salty, again not in a horrible way. The fries were just plain fries. Nothing fancy or overly seasoned. The cole slaw and other sides were great as well. The beans tasted the same as I remembered also. The overall value I received for the price I paid far exceeded my expectations and I would go back again.“

“I visited this store for lunch and the manager JC was very helpful. The staff he had enjoy working with him and I can see why. Very few managers take the time out to thank the staff for doing an amazing job getting orders out and tending to customers needs. I will return to this location and hopefully he will be there along with the other members. Thank you for a great experience“

“Normally my orders are always accurate. I don't know if the problem was that it was almost closing or not. I ordered large fries with my husband's hamburger but the fry box was 0 there wasn't any cheese sauce in the bag at all. Very disappointed as Sonic gets a lot of our business.“
