Community Rating
Reviews via GoogleWhat diners say — our read
The 4.0-star average is misleading — almost nobody actually rated it that. Reviewers who mention front-of-house rate this place 4.2 on average — it is working in the restaurant’s favour. After that, wait times appears most often — 36% of the corpus, averaging 2.6.
Of the 14 rated reviews, 11 sit at four stars or better and 3 at two or below. The single most common rating left here is 5 stars (9 of 14). A third strand, value for money, appears in 21% of them at 5.0 stars.
On the inspection side the picture is cleaner: DBPR graded this kitchen an A (97/100), with 3 basic violations. Whatever the reviews argue about, sanitation is not the weak point. The visit behind that grade was February 6, 2026. On health score it sits safer than 72% of the Orange County restaurants we grade. For specifics, the last inspection cited floors, walls, ceilings clean & maintained.
Both measures agree, which is the least complicated version of this page. Full reviews follow below in the order they were left.

I’m not from Orlando however on all of my vacations here, this is the best Checkers location. The food here is always hot and fresh.

Walked in, waited 5 minutes with 3 other people waiting to be served to be ignored while they serve the drive thru, would’ve been waiting forever so left. The first ever “slow fast” restaurant.

Well I don't know how the food was because I didnt get that far... I pulled into the drive thru and was greeted by the rudest fast food work I've met in awhile and I use to manage a McDonald's had an attitude from the start I asked for a little time to look at the menu we don't have many Checkers in PA where im from so just needed a second. We'll I guess this worker took it too seriously because she snapped back on the mic in less then a minute noticeably irritated with having to wait and snapped a nasty attitude back again and mind you the entire restaurant was dead other then me and my wife and after this experience no wonder its the hard pill to swallow in the chain restaurant game you can make as many cookie cutter stores and restaurants you want but you can't cookie cut a human best to just avoid this location for a few months I can't imagine that person will have a job very long with an attitude like that with customers she is probably a bigger problem to her coworkers.... In the end we drove away and decided not to subject ourselves to the negative atmosphere while we were on vacation

Ordered via the mobile app. Order was ready on time, accurate, delicious and staff was incredibly friendly. Also, couldn’t beat the prices thanks to the specials on their app.

Worst fast food experience ever. Went through drive thrunto order 3 items. But it took 5 minutes for them to take it. Then they told us to wait on the side for our food. It's has been 40 mins and still no food. I do not understand why. I have seen can come and ago. Avoid this place if you want to eat in a timely manner.
