Carousel Drive In: Reviews & Ratings
This is one of our regular places to grab a great burger and onion rings!!! This place has been here for as long as I can remember. The service might be a bit slow and the tone on the intercom might seem a little rough but the food makes up for it!!! Nice size burger and the rings are some of the best.
Had to get dinner for the return trip to Sacramento. Went inside to order and was surprised to see there were only two folks running the show. There was no one in the very clean but small dining area. The focus is definitely on the drive thru. They didn't take my order until all the cars were through. I ordered a pastrami sandwich because the menu said it had pickles and mustard - my sole favorites on nearly any sandwich, or burger. Onion rings and a large chocolate malt. The sandwich was okay. Decent flavor, but the meat was chopped and formed. I saw him heat the oval slices on the grill then dunk it in something - a deep fryer? I don't know. It was so tough I couldn't bite through the meat. With each bite, I dragged meat out of the sandwich. Oh well. The bread was fresh and grilled to a nice toast. I'm kind of a pickle snob. Not sure what happened to Wendy's, but those pickles taste strange. These are very tangy dill, crinkle cut. Makes my mouth water thinking of them. Perfect old fashioned dill pickles. Yum! Onion rings were good, perfectly cooked and tasty. The chocolate malt wasn't very malty, but very chocolaty. Wonderful consistency - I had to pace myself, it was a delightful treat. I'll try a burger on my next visit.
Awesome place to eat every time I go service is good food is good it's alll good keep it up
I ordered a Philly cheese steak, it was very good and everything but I sat in the drive thru waiting for a very long time
Great selection. Good food. Nice people. Cherry high. Pastrami burger. Fries and Taquito sauce.
The fast food is great it's a hidden gem! I had a $10 Philly Cheesesteak which was much much better than $22 7 inch crappy overpriced sandwich from pink lunch truck SIZZLIN BUNS on Rosedale food court. I went with my family to carousel and we spent around $32 plus a banana split. Customer service was kind and attentive even though busy. will recommend will go back! Thank you
Food is delicious and prepared fresh. Prices aren't too bad either considering how much it costs to eat out nowadays.
