I mean, I’ve never left 5 stars for a fast food place before. So, I’m pretty surprised with myself. This Wendy’s location is new-ish to the area. I think it’s less than a year old. It’s clean, no garbage on the floors, all the tables are in good shape, all the chairs are in standing order. The employees are knowledgable and friendly, and can all speak English clearly. All of our food items came out quickly and made properly. I didn’t have to send anything back. And I mean, Frosty’s. Am I right?

Nice interior with TV. Menus are on big screens, but prices were broken and not shown… Food quality, even for a fast food restaurant, was not great. Food came out as a to-go order, even though we said for-here. One of our burgers had a big dollap of mayo on top of the bun… Burgers weren’t very warm. They have the fancy soda fountain where you can add flavors, like vanilla Coke, but there’s only one, so you will have to form a line and wait if there’s a crowd. Overall, pretty much what you can expect from a fast food joint.

If I can give this zero stars I would. I just left here a few minutes ago, but it was the most horrible experience ever. I bought some food, 3 items, very simplistic and very hard to mess up. But somehow they forgot one of the items. I waited 15 more minutes in the drive thru after having to drive back. I finally got my order. Then I asked for a refund and they weren’t willing to refund me anything for my troubles and their mistake! So very pissed! Super bad service, never coming back here again!

I went here around midnight and the guy who took my order was great. On top of that my food was hit and fresh. I gave this 4 because the fries were a bit too salty. But good overall.

We have come here too many times since they opened at this new location. They are always very fast, friendly & accurate witg my order. It’s fast food, don’t have such high expectations people.

Does the person who makes the snack wraps have one arm?! Because if he or she has one arm then I would understand but it is honestly like they put the wrapper down, grab and throw all of the ingredients down on it at once, crumple it into a ball, throw it in the bag and hand it to you. The first two times it happened I thought, «Oh maybe they have someone new in the kitchen.» For it to happen again two weeks later is kind of ridiculous. There’s really no excuse, McDonald’s has the exact same menu item and is across the street, so I’ll just be getting it from there from now on.

Vey nice place. Actually really nice in the inside. A place it looks like people go to chill, maybe grab a frosty and relax. Staff is very friendly, quick with making meal. Asian salad very good but could use some crispy wontons in it and more vibrant veggies. If they add more red peppers or colorful veggoes would be more appetizing. Dressing needs work. It’s good, but could think of way better dressing for that salad. Overall, good food and nice staff.

I know it’s weird that I’m reviewing a fast food place, but this new Wendy’s in Renton is shockingly nice! Imagine a fast food restaurant so classy that people actually go there with a book to hang out, and that’s what this is. Seriously. This Wendy’s is in the same parking lot as the Fred Meyer, and it used to be a Shari’s diner. Now, it’s a clean, modern place with nice hardwood-look flooring, comfortable chairs, and tiled accent walls. There’s even a coffee-table sitting area with easy chairs and an electric fireplace. Floor-to-ceiling windows on one wall make it airy and bright inside, and tasteful frosted dividers give you some privacy in the booths. The menu is presented on flat-screen monitors when you come in, and then you move through a cafeteria-style counter to order, pay, and get your food. They ask for your name with your order, which sounds a little classier than having someone scream«ORDER #57!» The soda fountain is one of those newfangled high-tech machines that has a bunch of different flavor shots so you have 100+ options, but I kept it simple with a vanilla Diet Coke. Our food was prepared quickly and the guy at the counter waited patiently while I got my grandma settled and came back to pick it up. She was extremely impressed with the nice dining area and the high quality of the food(especially the hot and fresh fries), and gives it 10 stars. ;) This place is nicer than many of the hole-in-the-wall restaurants I go to regularly! Much more pleasant than I ever would have thought a fast-food joint could be. I’ll definitely be coming back again when the burger urge hits!

It’s Wendy’s. Food prices are slowly increasing and their value menu is not such a value anymore. That’s not their fault though I guess, with inflation, money hungry ceo’s and all that. I didn’t go in the lobby, but just through the drive through. Oddly placed within a shopping center, so the in and out access is not that great. Building is brand new(within a month or so) so everything looks nice and parking lot was clean. My order was correct and the iced tea tasted like tea! Spicy chicken sandwich had no hint of spice at all. It was the correct sandwich, just not as good as it used to be.

True story: I’ve never eaten anything from Wendy’s besides a Frosty(cause duh, they are AMAZING). I decided to be adventurous this time I came by — I had some sort of grilled chicken sandwich when I came in and it was SO good! It was smothered in sauce, so maybe next time I’ll ask them to go easy! I got the combo so I could have fries to dip in my Frosty(don’t judge me, it is delicious). They also have one of those new coke machines that you can basically make any drink your heart desires. This location has just opened, it is very nice! Large dining room, lots of table and a few bar like rails. Very bright and clean, not garbage all over or dirty tables. People seem to be pretty considerate. The menu is easy to read, pricing is laid out well and reasonable. The staff is very friendly as well! Easy to find, in the parking lot of Fred Meyer. Lots of parking spaces, also has a drive thru! Will certainly come back again… maybe for more than Frosty!

Great new Wendy’s in an old remodeled Shari’s. Good food and good service.

This is by far the nicest Wendy’s location I’ve ever visited. Everything was perfect: food, employees, dining room — almost too good to be true. The location seems new, but I hope it stays perfect. This could easily be a model store.
