### 2/5 — Basically basic

*2026-05-17, version 2.2*

Could not redeem my rewards, took 15 min to get my food and tables where dirty for the restaurant to be empty

### 3/5 — Reward system

*2026-05-14, version 2.2*

The reward system is wack lol you gotta spend more here then you do @chicfila

### 2/5 — App needs work!

*2026-05-09, version 2.2*

I would normally order in a restaurant app, however there are multiple items that are not available to order on the app, like cheese grits for instance, a side of eggs, an order of bacon or sausage.

### 5/5 — Great service

*2026-04-25, version 2.2*

Everything was awesome Kaitlyn was great too!!

### 1/5 — Incorrect Order

*2026-04-21, version 2.2*

Whenever I frequent this Krystal my order is 9/10 incorrect. They will serve you whatever is in the window regardless if it’s what you actually ordered.

### 1/5 — Never again

*2026-04-06, version 2.2*

I want to start off by saying I’m never eating here again. I’m stuck in a hotel, I ordered and got no updates for 45 mins then get like 7 of them of once 5 mins before the delivery time saying my food is delivered . I didn’t receive anything but a bad experience thank you

### 2/5 — Need looking into

*2026-04-03, version 2.2*

I am not sure what is going on with this location.  Most of the staff was in the parking lot dealing with  a customer that was upset over incorrect change.  I finally got my food only to be missing the tots

### 1/5 — Worst fast food app

*2026-08-26, version 2.2*

Terrible app. Doesn’t work at all. Krystal’s is just a more expensive White Castle but doesn’t offer better quality. This app has been nothing but a headache. I live right next to a Krystal and would like to earn rewards or order online but it’s impossible on this app. I’ve spent countless hours just trying to place an order with no success. (Update: it’s been a couple months of me trying to place an order. Still unable to do so) They do online only deals but everytime I try to place an order it just says oops we couldn’t place your order. Every. Single. Time. I went into the store to see if they could figure it out, they couldn’t, and they wouldn’t honor the deal but yet I can’t even place an order online so what the heck. On top of that I try to earn rewards as the app has a QR code but they said they don’t even have a QR scanner at any of the locations I’ve been to, so no earning rewards either. What a joke of a company. If anything this is just a menu you can look at, which is terribly laid out at that. Never going to Krystal’s again.

### 1/5 — Time and Money

*2026-07-30, version 2.2*

I took advantage of a promo and ordered breakfast online. The Krystal restaurant was CLOSED for breakfast. They had not yet opened at 9:30am. I dedicated way too much of my day to this. Pursuing reimbursement will require even more of my valuable time. What happened to this former icon of superb American fast food?

### 1/5 — Gift card

*2026-07-15, version 2.2*

Received a gift card for Krystal.   Was declined.  Contacted Krystal for explanation.   Received Zero.  Nada…..back
Product is good.  Corporate stinks

### 1/5 — Incorrect

*2026-07-07, version 2.2*

It’d be good had I got the other missing medium fry and cheese Krystal!

### 1/5 — Worst fast food app

### 1/5 — Can’t order

*2026-06-29, version 2.2*

I get to the last step of paying for my order but I can’t go any further. I get a spinning “validating order” that spins forever until an error message pops up.

### 1/5 — Kinda a hot mess

*2026-06-26, version 2.2*

..Not hot fries..see what I did there?  Anyway.  Lots of redundant loops of pop ups.  Lots of push marketing during order. Very confusing to navigate.  And then, the promo I do select, came up as not available.  No bueno.

### 1/5 — App does not work

*2026-06-22, version 2.2*

I received an email about an offer. I tried to sign in, but it said my account had been deactivated. I tried to create a new account, but it won’t let me because it says the phone number is already in use. There’s no place to click help so I guess I just won’t be going to Krystal.

### 1/5 — Reward

*2026-06-11, version 2.2*

Reward are not good enough takes to long to get anything free for the money you spend

### 1/5 — Service

*2026-05-29, version 2.2*

Ordered food on app 20 minutes before arriving and waited another 20 minutes upon arrival for the food

### 5/5 — ALABAMA LOVES KRYSTAL

### 5/5 — Pastor Dan

*2026-07-18, version 2.2*

Eating at the Krystal for over 70 years. Love their burgers and spicy chili sandwiches.  Always friendly people.

### 5/5 — Good food!

*2026-07-18, version 2.2*

This is a great Krystal location. I always get everything I order unlike a lot of places. The food is always hot and made the way it should be. No thrown together Krystal burgers or sunrisers.

### 5/5 — Great service in the drive thru

*2026-07-10, version 2.2*

Great customer service in the drive thru yall are awesome keep it up

### 5/5 — Dano

*2026-07-02, version 2.2*

Great group best in town

### 5/5 — Great food

*2026-06-27, version 2.2*

100% on everything

### 5/5 — Krystal 206 s Germantown pkwy

*2026-05-20, version 2.2*

Please let the 206 s Germantown location be the model for the location on 1377 union avenue and 4395 Elvis Presley blvd in Memphis Tennessee. I have been disappointed with both locations, thanks for the Germantown location I will be returning.

### 5/5 — Works great!!

*2026-05-07, version 2.2*

The app works great it looks nice. my only complaint is that going through the menu to make an order could be a bit clearer and have a little more pop to it.
