McDonald's

Convenient location across from NMWA. You must use the kiosk to order, and I somehow ended up with two mocha frappes. Unfortunately, the upstairs was closed, but the staff kept the small downstairs area clean.

Should have known better than ordering from the Demander in Chief's personal restaurant. Not wanting to disappoint my son, I ordered off the menu and after a VERY long wait, collected his order and he (understandably!) started crying as soon as he saw it. Waste of money!

terrible experience I lived today with my wife in this place, I asked the staff for the bathroom password and the girl who was at the register told me that she couldn't because I wasn't a customer and that if I wanted to use the bathroom I had to make a purchase first, to which I said: yes yes I will make the purchase in fact I came to lunch only that in truth I am urgent today, to which she replied, no I'm sorry you must buy or you won't go to the bathroom to which I replied ok I just hope there are no mistakes in my food or I will complain to the manager, to which she responded: don't threaten me that this is not your country assuming that based on my physical features I was an immigrant which (yes I am but that is none of her business) and a very heated argument began in which she referred to me based on my appearance and making racist and even degrading comments towards my sexuality or my gender and calling me terrorist just for hearing my seat coming from Venezuela which I found quite unpleasant, the manager on duty who was a Hispanic lady, saw the situation and just decided to ignore the heated discussion, without further ado I waited for my order on the upper floor to which in moments I would hear a person in the back ask "which is it" and the young woman who brings up the food which it should be reiterated was not there nor was part of the discussion responds: it's him pointing at me, the man rushed to my table with a knife in his hand and I decided to confront him not knowing his intentions, since he was the boyfriend of the lady at the register with whom I had the argument, the man physically attacked me and my partner with a gun in his hand, I will decide to take legal action, but in short do not come to this McDonald's if you are Venezuelan or homosexual because the employees will plot to attack you !!!!💀💀💀

Typical MacDonald's at a perfect spot but overwhelmed by homeless inside as well as outside. This spoiled our experience of being here specially with kids. Food was fine as you'd expect, not great but not bad either, service could be better but that's ok as staff might be frustrated by the occupants. Restrooms were locked and blocked again by multiple ppl so we didn't bother. We were in and out quickly.

Last night was one of the worst nights of my life, and it shattered my entire perception of McDonald’s. I am a journalist, and after finishing my night shift, I usually stop to order something before heading home. But last night, after visiting this location, I experienced extremely poor, unprofessional, and offensive treatment from the staff. When I left the store, McDonald’s had taken my money, but I received no food, was disrespected, and no one contacted me afterward to apologize. Shockingly, my order is still not marked as canceled. I arrived at the branch at 2:00 a.m. and waited for 25 minutes. One of the workers, wearing a black apron with his name tag deliberately hidden underneath, eventually told me that my order hadn’t been processed. I immediately showed him my online banking payment confirmation and the order confirmation email. He shrugged, turned his back on me, and walked away. I then politely asked his coworker—a younger male employee—for the man's name. Neither of them responded. Instead, they both turned away and began whispering to each other, completely ignoring me. The atmosphere was heavily male-dominated. I was the only woman present, surrounded by several homeless individuals who kept asking me to buy them food. I felt deeply unsafe and uncomfortable. Despite waiting there for over 30 minutes, no one delivered my order, and the staff continued to walk past me with total indifference. I was finally forced to leave—hungry, humiliated, and still charged for a meal I never received. McDonald’s has failed to honor its responsibility, and my money was essentially stolen. Imagine if this happened to 100 people at different locations each night—what a fortune that would be, built on dishonesty and lack of accountability. I have all the supporting evidence for my claims, including bank statements and confirmation emails.

The night staff is a complete disaster. How did you manage to get so many employees who have no respect for their jobs or customers together? Saturday morning, 4 am, 6 employees, and an empty store. I barely got an order in 35 minutes. Damn it, I will never go back. You should stay away from this store too.

Stay away from this location it was dirty . The service was horrible. The staff were down right rude ignored patrons told then to use the kiosk they were not taking orders at the register. The food for our table of 5 everything was cold the were out of milk for the kids meal. The drinks were watery like they had been sitting and the double filet of fish the tarter sauce was bad it had a weird taste and the bread was hard. I took one bite and returned it and was told I couldn't return it because I took a meaning one small bite. Then when I said I would call corporate I was told I could return only the sandwich which was all I was returning. I got my refund. Then got out of there this was a has terrible experience.

Yulay is truly a dedicated and hardworking employee. Despite today’s high customer volume at the McDonald’s outlet, she remained polite, enthusiastic, and attentive throughout. Her ability to multitask efficiently while maintaining a positive attitude is commendable. She genuinely deserves recognition and a well-earned raise for her outstanding performance.

Hugo is absolutely amazing. He was kind enough to help me out and gave me great customer service.

There wasn't a lot of places opened past midnight so we got late night McDonald's via online order. There were so many people crowding the front desk trying to pick up their order. It was pretty quick because by the time we walked in, my food was ready (roughly 10 min). However when I decided to order an extra item on their touchscreen device, it took FOREVER. I wished I hadn't placed a second order if I knew it was going to take over 30 min for a small frozen coke. My friend placed an online order the same time as me. We heard them calling her number but when she went to the front, her order wasn't there anymore. She's pretty sure she saw a man take her a bag that most likely was supposed to be her order, valued about $30! Fortunately, the lady made her a new order. She knew she did wrong when she handed an order to someone without checking their receipt because she never apologized nor acted surprised that the order given to someone else ugh. This place is so sketchy at night, don't recommend going alone. We did go during daytime once and it was okay. Bathroom code is at the bottom of your receipt.

I stopped here for a quick breakfast while in the area for a business trip. This is a standard McDonald's, so it isn't anything really spectacular, but it is clean, quick, and gets the job done. There are a ton of self-serve order kiosks, which I appreciate, as I find they help keep the wait time down. My food was ready pretty quickly and my order was correct. I took my food upstairs to eat and was surprised at how spacious and clean the dining area was. There is a lot of seating to choose from and the tables and floors were free of debris. For a fast food joint, I'm pretty impressed! I'll definitely be back here for a quick breakfast on the go throughout the rest of my trip.

While on vacation in the wintertime, my son and I walked to the Childrens Museum on a Sunday afternoon. Since we got hungry, I decided to stop by here for quick, cheap lunch. I placed an order via McDonalds app. I got my kid a 6 piece nugget happy meal with fries, apple slices, and apple juice. I redeemed an offer for free large fries with purchase. I got a McDouble (only ketchup) and a large sweet tea. The total was $7 and some change. The order was placed at 1:33pm and we received food at 1:38pm. I asked for BBQ sauce and they only gave me one... I didn't want to seem greedy, so I didn't ask for another but the lady saw my large fries and knew 1 wasn't going to be enough lol. They forgot my kid's apple juice. I got it and 2 more bbq sauces for me. The cashier, whose name tag read Jefferson, was very nice and helpful! I decided to sit in and eat. The food was fresh and no complaints.

My hazelnut coffee tasted like cigarette smoke and I gave some of mine to someone who wanted it on the street at random. They gave me one strawberry cream pie instead of two. I got my second one after showing my receipt. I felt like I was in an area that could still be considered nice enough to live in but rough around the edges. It was just a 10 min walk from the mostly Poshyness or superficiality to some maybe of the convention center area. Nearby across the street kitty corner from one end is a slew of tents and this isn't a city campground that was built up of such a thing was ever allowed. I almost felt like my second pie was "slapped". It wasn't actually slapped but just the feel of the exhaustion of the workers and the potentially Overly low class attitudes they might have to put up with is the vibe I got when eating here.

The service was terrible this weekend. I popped in to grab a bite but had to use the restroom first. However, I felt harassed by the security guard. She made it seem like we had some kind of history, and I was about to have a showdown with her. I've noticed her messing with others on weekends before. Now she wants a piece of me. I think I'll skip going next weekend.

This is a regular McDonald's restaurant. Clean and nice. No concerns. Not sure what to add more.

Service sucks I just went in for a quick breakfast. My coffee was watered down and the juice. I asked if i could get another coffee in hopes it wouldn't be from the same water down pot. But the lady's there started talking in Spanish how the creamer made it watered down and I was being dramatic. Like I wouldn't understand what they were saying. Definitely need to learn to keep opinions to them self.

Wow this is awesome Everybody you got to try it w9ooooooooo9ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow w9ooooooooo9ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow w9ooooooooo9ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow w9ooooooooo9ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow w9ooooooooo9ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow w9ooooooooo9ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooowCheeseburgerhappy guys just come here.

Unfortunately, this McDonald's is a actually a homeless shelter. And I don't mean that in an unkind way; I'm supportive of homeless shelters! But that public service shouldn't be foisted by default on the downtown Starbucks and McDonalds and public libraries of the world, whose hardworking staff don't know what to do when confronted with sometimes dangerous situations.

My family and I ate from this McDonald's 3 times while we were in Washington. Our days were full of sightseeing and walking to the point where we thought our legs were going to fall off. So sometimes we just wanted to rest in our room and eat. During different times we ate the McDouble, Fries, Coke's, snack wraps, chicken nuggets...you know common McDonald's meals. The food was ordered thru Uber eats. The food quality was ok...standard McDonald's grade...food wasn't hot. And one time they forgot to give us an order of fries we ordered. Could have been better? Sure...but when you eat at McDonald's you know what you are getting.

I was in during the morning and they seemed rushed which makes sense. Still they could check the orders before sending them off with people. They forgot one item all together, sent a wrong breakfast sandwich and made the wrong coffee. I double checked the order in the bag to be sure it wasn't my mistake and having the wrong bag but it was my number with what I had ordered just it didn't match what was in the bag. Just not a nice way to start the day.

Quick order Good food nothing to hate love that some McDonald's have play places ! The only thing is, the play place is dirty nothing to hate!

Haven't been to many McDonald's in USA but been to a few around the world and came on a nice quiet weekday. Burger was made with love and packaged nicely not all smashed together. Very clean dining area upstairs with a nice view and was very quick service note I did come at a quiet time.

Ummm, if you all don't open your restrooms!!! It's a courtesy! Furthermore, your reps could at least say, "sorry for the INCONVENIENCE!!" Instead of NEXT! Not cool!

so, lots of room, service was slooooow, about 20mins. but we are only allowed here for 20mins! iom.geeee whyuuuuuuttttu.my brotherrrrer, he is rolling his eye lidsssss . reed

I can't say I am a regular at McDonald's. And last week visit will not turn me to one. But even I am not a regular, the fries of McDonald's are the best out there. What is the secret of making so good fries is something I really can't explain. And I know that others also think the same (obviously not the other Yelpers who reviewed this location). So fries were the better part of my visit. The burger wasn't. I only ate half of it. It just tasted bitter. Maybe the oil or I don't know what. My last visit to DC was a lot about junk food, I tend to do that when I am too busy to have decent lunch. Left with a crave for more fries, and decided that my McDonald's burger dats are long gone.

The food was good. The staff had an attitude , and were unprofessional. The bathroom smelled absolutely awful. I do NOT recommend this McDonald's.

Such a great service! Visiting Washington DC, and came here with my son to get ice cream. First, the cashier was patient with us while my son ordered food. Son switched many times what he wanted but the lady was smiling and helping him to choose. My son got upset that this location was upset. So, while we ate ice cream, the manager Claudia came to s and gave the newest mc Donald's toy- captain America! My son was amazed! Yay! Great place!! We def would like to come back! Great service and welcoming and caring staff!

For what it is, this place was super quick in and out, excellent and friendly service, well organized, COVID guidance was being enforced, and it was extremely clean. Our orders were right and took maybe a minute. If I need fast food again it'll be on my list.

I love the crackheads hanging outside they are so dirty and funny I love it here in DC !!!!

We were tired and hungry in a strange city. My son appreciated the comfort food. It was still hot when it was delivered.

Like a regular McDonald's Crowded restrooms Little room on first floor Lots of room on second Cheap food when using app

I downloaded the McDonald's app and I like to cash in my app coupons here - free classic egg mcmuffin when the caps or wizards are ahead in the first quarter. Free egg mcmuffin + breakfast served all day is a pretty sweet deal! Go Caps and Wizards! I've been here during the busy lunch hour and during off-peak hours as well... Service is quicker during the busy lunch hour. I could speculate as to why, but I won't. The last egg mcmuffin I got here was a little burnt on the corner (pictured), but I can't complain too much because it was free. While the egg mcmuffin isn't my choice breakfast item, it's filling and an easy grab-and-go meal. Because this McDonald's is open 24/7, there is the occasional panhandler/beggar outside, but that's to be expected in the city. There's free WiFi here and plenty of upstairs seating if you want to eat in - I've found the upstairs seating to be more pleasant than the hustling and bustling first floor.

Closing out my review of all the McDonald's in Downtown DC with the largest franchise around! It's multiple levels and the architecture makes it a shining beacon of fast food. The menu is as good as any other McDonald's, and the building practically warrants 5 out of 5 stars on its own.

LITERALLY THE SLOWEST MCDONALDS I HAVE EVER BEEN TO. Most McDonald's have a good excuse. A DRIVEWAY. This location has no drivee through and can't seem tO push out orders. Go to F st NW instead this location is a joke. Renovations mean nothing. UPDATE. 3/19/2020... went back, they couldn't even get a McDouble and mcchicken right. Forcing me to get hot and spicy when I am allergic. I went to change it because I am ALLergic and they got mad. Also bathrooms are CLOSED. No worry about the coronavirus at this location

Rude rude rude all I can say. I just asked if she knew of anywhere we could sit and eat and all I got was attitude.

Pretty standard McDonald's. Some aspects of the decor are a bit dated, but the service is friendly and the location is clean. If you're nearby and want to go to McDonald's, this location will fit the bill.

Was in DC for business and came here for an egg mcmuffin. The staff here reminded me why I never go to McDonald's. They were incredibly rude and I could barely understand them. Then, they looked funny at me because I asked them to please repeat what they'd said. I should have gone to Starbucks instead. Avoid!

I like this McDonald's because it validated my McDonald's strike. Next month will mark my six year no McDonald's anniversary, and I never would have kept it up without this particular McDonald's. I've never been a big fan of McDonald's, but when I realized that I hadn't eaten there in 5 years*, I started feeling the desire to go. Even worse, I kept passing this giant McDonald's on my way to work that looked much nicer than any other McDonald's I've seen before. I'd made the decision to go. I was walking towards it, when I saw a guy walk out. He was walking towards me eating a burger, and a giant piece fell off and onto the (busy) sidewalk. He picked it up and ate it. I was disgusted, and it got rid of any inkling of a desire I might have had to eat there again ever. Now, every time I think of McDonalds, I think of that man. *with the exception of apple pie

There are two things this McD's has going for it: 1) it's close to my apartment and 2) it's open 24 hours. And there's basically just two reasons I patronize this McD's: 1) I'm really hungry and nothing else is open and 2) it's cheap. There are a few things to note about this location: - The restrooms do not actually require change or tokens to enter despite the door handles indicating such. - It's a hangout for homeless people. - After midnight, you can only order meals. No getting just a regular cheeseburger or something. As far as McD's locations go, this is a rather sucky one. But I'm rounding up and giving it an extra star because of the convenience - both proximity to my apartment and it being open 24 hours a day. Bottom line: it's got everything else other McD's have and it's open 24 hours. Did I mention yet that it's open 24 hours a day? Yep, that would be the major attribute of this location.

Keep in mind that this is McDonalds after all and I'm not comparing them to say, Morton's Steakhouse. . . Also, I almost NEVER patronize Mickey D's. Mostly bc of the low nutritional value of a majority of their menu items AND how sick I feel after I've eaten their food :0P HOWEVER, I'm dawg tired today and was dozing off on the Metro. Another thing that's not a good idea to do ;0P I recalled hearing that McDonalds was offering large iced coffees for $1.49!!!! SOLD! Lol!!! This location is steps away from Metro Center Station in the heart of downtown NW, DC sooooo you already know the vibe AND it was lunch time. Lots of professional folks strolling by in pursuit of grub during their lunch break The establishment was very clean (nope it's NOT a new restaurant) and well lit. This location has its share of homeless folks lingering, but no one was wild'n out or acting erratic. Just peacefully hanging out in front, but at a safe distance from the entrance. There were 3-5 folks in front of me. I swear it took less than 5mins for them to summon me to a register. The cashier was very friendly and smiled. God bless him for his patience bc I promise you, I was the only patron in the whole spot who honestly had to look at the menu to figure out what the heck I wanted. I settled for their Signature Crafted Sweet BBQ Bacon burger; please see pic... I requested that they hold the crispy and grilled onions. Didn't want to scalp my next client with Toxic Breath from Hell! The bun was a bit over toasted for me. But I got the sense that if I requested, they would've replaced it quickly and without question. I'm not a huge BBQ sauce fan, but I really like the flavor of this 1! It had the right amount of sauce, which was refreshing for me bc I don't like my burger slipp'n and dripp'n with sauce. The bacon was prepared just right; not over cooked and brittle. It had good flavor. As a Bacon Lover, I truly appreciated that. The burger was average, slightly over cooked. It's a thin patty, so I'm not sure if it could be cooked to 'medium' specifications, lol. Nor should a customer expect such at Mickey D's. Nonetheless, it was a bit dry. My justification for 4 stars is- -clean establishment -fast and friendly service -creativity in creating their Signature Recipe sandwiches McDonalds' Signature Crafted Recipe sandwich line gives their customers a choice of a burger, fried chicken breast, or chicken grilled breast. Then you pick which 'recipe' you want to pair it with. My selection was Sweet BBQ Bacon. I also appreciated the little paper wrapping on the sandwich! Thoughtful for helping customers not spill food and condiments on themselves ;0))) This might be something McDonalds places in all their sandwiches. . . I just haven't ordered frequently enough to know. I did notice however that Chik-fi-la places the paper wrapper on all their sandwiches. A much appreciated feature :0))))

Lost my grub hub order. Told grub hub that it was delivered to an address I didn't give.

It's not a bad McDonald's as far as McDonald's go. Service is hit or miss, and food is usually served fairly quick and the place is also fairly clean whenever I go there. The biggest problem I have with this location is that there is always, and I mean always, someone panhandling for change. I don't mind giving some change here and there, but you obviously can't give it to everyone, all the time, so just knowing that I'm going to be panhandled when I get near this location makes me weary to go.

Love this McDonalds talk about your neighborhood friendly place. Love the ladies here always smiling interacting with the customers and for us Hispanics they all speak Spanish! Come by and visit you won't be disappointed!

Gave me the wrong order so 5am shift sucks. I'm writing more because yelp thinks I need to write note to leave a qualified review.

I just ask for a cup of coffee at 0307 on 9/13/2018. I just got to my desk and took a sip and they gave me hot water.

I came here tonight because I was dying of hunger. I ordered the Big Mac combo meal and it was delivered to me at the counter in about 1 minute. There were about four groups eating inside, and it appeared slow for a Sunday night. That's probably why that there was no delay in preparing the food. The Big Mac and fries were cooked perfectly. And I think they were prepared just for my order. Usually it's not the case where the french fries are so fresh. The Big Mac tasted like any other Big Mac, it was hot and tasted fresh. The price at this location is particularly high, but I'm guessing that McDonald's pricing within the city is generally higher than the suburbs of VA or MD. At almost $9.00 with tax, it was nothing to sneeze at really. I was also surprised to see a couple of homeless people hanging out as I'm certain that the food prices could be out if reach for many average people as well. The place is conveniently located close to my job so I'm sure I will swing back in again some other time.

This McDonald's will forever hold a special place in my heart. After dinner on U St and a non-trivial amount of alcohol in DuPont, we head towards Metro Center to depart for the night. But before we can get to Metro Center, someone decides they must pee and so we make our way into this McDonalds. Apparently many people do the same thing we were doing as this McDonalds has signs posted "Bathrooms for paying customers only." Whatever. I've paid my dues to McD's corporate over the years. Nonetheless, I pretend to study the menu as if I'm about to order something. So I'm standing there, trying to keep my distance from the fellow pacing around and spraying his shoes with some indeterminate liquid while yelling for the elephants to leave him alone. Luckily some jackass is arguing with an employee about how he deserves fries with his dollar-menu cheeseburger (as if 99 cents for a burger isn't already disgustingly cheap), so I am never called upon to actually buy food. Then a Mexican gentleman comes up to me and says "You need to use the bathroom." I was slightly confused since this was expressed to me in the form of a statement rather than a question. Regardless, I replied "No, I don't need to use the restroom." He answered "No, you don't understand. Go in the bathroom." I look at him inquisitively. "Just do it. Go open the door and check it out." Uhhhh..... "Come on man, take a look and let me know what you think." Why I listened to this guy, I'll never know, but I figured what the eff and opened the bathroom door..... ..... to the sight of a fat black man, naked as the day he was born, passed out on the floor. I mean, he had not one single article of clothing on his body. Actually, he had on some adidas socks. God forbid he get his feet dirty. The image is so vividly ingrained in my mind, I have to wonder how long I stood there soaking in the details of this immaculate scene. But it couldn't have been more than a fraction of a second from my opening the door to jumping back in disgust. As I peer back at the Mexican guy with a head shake and a sly grin on my face, I note that he and his buddy are having a nice chuckle at my reaction. I, too, look back upon this experience and have a good laugh. I give this McDonald's 4 stars (and check the "Good for kids? - NO!" box) for providing me one of my more interesting experiences in DC and the graphic memories to accompany it.

Recessions make you do crazy things, like walking darn near a mile for a $2 lunch from Le Mikey Donald's. This one is faster and friendlier than its counterpart on 13th & F. McDonald's, thanks for your dollar menu. It was like you could see into the future of awful financial times. And thank you for contributing to my gaining 6 pounds in 3 weeks. Looks like your dollar menu and I are about to get way more acquainted.

Food is horrible, which is impressive for a franchise built on consistency of mediocre food. There are no seats. They refuse to let you uSe the bathrooms. Finally, the worst part is the staff is incredibly rude despite barely being able to speak English.

McDonald's is McDonald's, but what I like about this McDonald's is that it is one of the only McD's that still have strawberry sundaes. Go during the lunch hour and there's ample seating with seating on the 2nd floor. I like the view of the street from up there. Beware of the bums outside though. They're also super quick during the lunch hour, a lot quicker than a lot of other McD's I've ever been to.

We were able to quickly order and get our food. This location is near my house. The employees are always nice. The factor you can't plan is the customers. Some of them are really weird. Apparently you also have to be a bouncer to work at this location. The employees do a decent job of keeping the "off' crowd from ruining a visit.

1. Honestly, do you need to rate McDonald's? 2. Tell me... what exactly is NYC service? If I read one more godd@#! thing about NYC superiority I'll scream. 5 stars out of spite!

I'm feeling pretty trashy right now for thinking this is a great McDonald's location. I went in and thought it was so clean and everyone was so friendly, etc. Based on the other reviews for here, I guess I have really low standards. I stumbled upon this location after getting off at the Metro Center stop. Because corporate marketing has worn me down over the years, as soon as I saw a sign for McDonalds, I got a little hungry. Justifying it with a "I didn't eat breakfast today and it's already lunch time!" I stopped in. It was really empty. There was a family sitting on a table in the corner, but that's about it. Deciding if I wanted to get full-on nasty here with an entire meal, or just sorta nasty with some dollar menu pickings, I studied the menu for a good 5 minutes. During that time, I was asked by the woman at the register three times if I was ready to be helped. (I say that as a good thing. I'm glad that she was so set on providing great customer service.) Anyway, I decided to get sorta nasty and got a large fries, large drink, and a four piece nuggets. Everything was ready before I could put my wallet away. Usually when my food is given to me that quickly, it means that everything was sitting out for a while and my food was going to be cold. Dejected, I took a seat (carefully avoiding the melted ice cream cone on the floor that no one either noticed or bothered to clean up). Picking up a fry, I noticed it was crispy and hot. Intrigued, I bit into it and found that I wasn't given old food. What kind of witchcraft can produce "fresh" McDonald's food this quickly?! I was amazed. I don't know if I came on a really good day or what. I did come in the early afternoon (probably between rushes as it was empty) on a weekend. Nonetheless, this was a pretty great experience at a McDonald's. Hot food, no kids running around, and a clean table (the floor was questionable). I still can't believe it.

Horrible experiences! I sometimes come in around 4-5 am since its one of the only places open nearby at that time. It has been dirty every time and the tables and chairs are stained. On one morning some friends and I went to go get breakfast just before 4. when we entered the restaurant the cashier told us that the computer system would be down for a few minutes. So we sat down and decided to wait since nothing else was open nearby. There was a security guard lounging by the counter on her cell phone with headphones in. After about 5 minutes she came over to us and informed us that their computer system was down and that since we couldn't order any food, we could not sit in the restaurant and wait and would have to leave. It was about 20 degrees outside so instead of waiting aroudn we just left. It was absolutely unbelievable. Another morning I ordered a flavored specialty coffee, the Caramel Mocha. My food was done before my coffee so I sat down to eat and waited for my drink to be made. One of the workers walked over to the McCafe and started making a drink that I assumed was mine. However when she was done she simply set it on the counter and walked away, not saying it was ready or calling the order number-nothing. she just walked back to the kitchen. There were other people in the restaurant still waiting on food so I wasn't sure if it was mine or possibly one of theirs. After waiting a minute to see if someone else would take it or maybe the girl would come back and call a number, I finally got up and looked myself. My order number was taped to it. stupid service. but at least the drink was nice.

Always check your order. Just this morning, they got mine wrong twice. All I wanted was a bacon, egg and cheese on a mcmuffin. Probably the most standard breakfast order ever. First time I got sausage, then one of their new egg white, white cheddar and whatever sandwiches. I gave up because at least it had bacon. This has happened at lunch rush too -- just be sure to always check your order, especially if you have food allergies or aversions.

Yup, you're reading a review about McDonald's from me. Visiting DC from New York City, and it seems the McDonald's on New York Ave is about as close as I can get to New York City service (i.e., the place is actually open at night). I thought I had arrived in a ghost town at 8pm on a Sunday. The sun had just set and only the homeless and I roamed the streets. Succumbing to defeat I ended up at McDonald's along with my homeless friends. The food is what you'd expect, sub par quality but exceptionally low-priced. No matter how you cut it, you're getting fries with that--it almost costs you more to not get fries.

FYI this location finally put in the McCafe "bar" so you don't have to get in the food line for your java fix. This, and one other reason, is the only justification for me rating it with stars. I only found out when this past Mon there was a promo to try their hot or iced mocha for free. I went in the morning 7am to be exact to order the hot version and requested the non-fat which apparently is an option according to what I read in two places: (1) the BIG banner marketing the mocha drink located beside their menu, and (2) the menu located beside the BIG banner marketing the mocha drink. Anyways the lady behind the counter said, "we're out of non-fat." wtf? i grudgingly requiesed but requested no chocolate sauce and no whip cream but kept the chocolate drizzle. I rarely ever eat @ McDonald's and if i do, it's their side salad. I won't rag on the place as we all know about the kind of food sold there. Oh, the other reason is because it's in a nice location near my work and if you head upstairs to the dining room, you can get a really nice view of the intersection heading to the Obama residence.
