There was a worker, Evan P., who went above and beyond for my dining experience. Evan made sure that I had an excellent time with his speedy service, awesome attitude, and the food was great! My wife and I ordered 2 burgers with a side of fries and everything was top notch quality. Would definitely recommend and hopefully you get Evan to help you. 5/5

Went here with my friend Regina! The food was hot the drinks were cold, could not get better than this! The best part was our server, Evan! He was so polite and fast! Could not have had a better experience if it wasn’t for Evan! 10/10

I had a great experience because of my server Angie. She was so polite and helpful anytime I had questions. Another server named jack brought out my food and he was great! I will definitely be coming back especially because of the service I received!

Charged 30 cents for this peice of lettuce THIS IS PATHETIC does this look like its worth 30 cents; Really? 30 cents to add lettuce to a sandwich at all anyways is ridiculous but being so… this is the quality/quantity? Also didn’t help there was a hair toasted to the top of a burger bun… yuk

Always my favorite spot to stop at when coming up from nashville. Server Joe was exceptionally friendly and made my experience tonight one to remember. Milkshake was delicious as well.

Food great, as always. Made a second order just to eat more onion rings. Insanely good! Em was fantastic! Loved her swag. Where do I get one of those hats?! Love Swensen’s. Go go go if you’ve never been. And go go go again if you have, ‘cause you know you want to.

One of the better spots to get a galley boy. Service at this location is phenomenal. Kitchen was fast in making my order and a larger takeout order. I’ve heard the salty olive is supposed to be eaten first before taking a bite out of the savory and sweet burger. The burger patty itself has a unique flavor, and the tartar sauce / BBQ mix settles any doubts about its distinct taste. I usually get some potato teasers. PB & Grape shake should replace vanilla and chocolate as the standard shake flavor.

Was there tonight and I had the best food and drinks. My server Evan could not have been more accommodating. He was so fast it felt like I was there for 5 minutes. He is by far the best sweaons worker I have delt with in my 35 years of life. I am so incredibly happy that I got a chance to catch up with my friends Ava and Regina it was truly a wonderful night. I am so glad I was able to tip Evan for his great work ethic. Such a solid and nice fellow!!

Swensons never seems to let me down however when it is busy, getting served is sometimes frustrating. Waiting for service was not an issue the other night with Evan Palmer as my server . He was super helpful and respectful and not only did he read our order back to us to clarify everything was correct, but he made sure that everything was in our bag and got it out to my car in a timely manner. That dude is one of the best servers i’ve ever had at Swensons and he deserves to know it.
