    This location is about as exciting as any other Burger King. It gets crazy busy around lunch time some days.

    And yes, my order has been wrong after they pretty much yell out my number and throw the bag at me.

    Sometimes when you're on campus for eight hours; you have to put SOMETHING in your tummy.

    I eat here maybe 3 times a week! I know, it's sad... but its my only option because its the cheapest and the only thing that gets me full at sac state -__-. I swear, they recognize my face cause it's always the same people taking my order haha. Anyway, its just like any burger king..but expect long lines around noon...

    When you are running low on cash and are really hungry this is the place to go.  The food is just like any other Burger King and so is the service, but it gets the job done.

    I never really was a fan of Burger King, especially the one on campus ... but once in a while I'd come here when needed.  It was like a last resort place for me -- and it's good to have one of those places on campus.

    I appreciate that they serve Diet Coke here over Diet Pepsi (Sorry, it just tastes better) and it's really the only place you can get it on campus.

    It's your average BK, prices slightly raised because of the location. The lines vary depending on when you come. They have an express line that you can chose from a limited menu.

    I indulge here every now and then when I'm craving something greasy. The lady who barks out the order numbers is sort of scary and seems genuinely pissy when I ask for ranch (I'm sorry. I'm not a fan of ketchup with my fries) I always make sure to smile and say thank you. But, I think I'm a burden to her day.

    Other than that. Don't expect anything fancy. It's BK people, you're going to get cold fries and crappy service every now and then.

    Considering that this is a small Burger King at a college, you can't really expect much in terms of service. On more than one occasion I was stuck waiting around for my order and 3 or 4 people behind me got their's before I got mine. I don't order much, but generally its because someone behind the counter messed up my order or they just forgot. 4 out of 5 times my french fries are dumped in the bag upside down so I have to scoop them out when I open it up. The Steakhouse XT burgers come in different varieties (in the past there were three other kinds, smokey cheddar, mushroom, and mashed potatoes, or something like that) but everytime I went to get one they said they were all out. So I tried again with the most recent variation, the jalapino stuffed version, and to no supprise, they didn't have it.

    Price wise, they are relativly cheap and its not usually crowded unless you come at lunch time.

    The Burger King at Sac State is the place you go when you have little cash and want a lot of food. Whether you like or dislike Burger King, this location isn't going to sway you either way. The prices are slightly higher than the other locations to offset rental costs at the University Union. The Hornets' Nest is one of the worst locations for free wifi. If you're looking for a hamburger, Kung Fu Fat's Asian Marketplace in the River Front Center prepares a heftier and simple hamburger for a good price.

    Random note: Since Burger King is an outside vendor with a separate exclusive license, it doesn't have to submit to the $12 million, 25-year university partnership with Pepsi. You can only buy Coke products here.

    I love Burger King, and this is one of the only places I go to at the Union.

    It's just a regular, usual BK ... nothing too special about it, though lines can be a pain especially in the noon-afternoon. One interesting thing is that they have an "express" window where you can only order certain items.

    I like the express lane here!  Nice and fast.  I would have to show my "Asian side" and recommend taking the survey on the back of the receipt.  You get a free Whopper or Chicken Sandwich with purchase of fries and a drink.  This is usually a full high "quality" (meaning higher end food on the menu as opposed to value menu) for under $3... a steal when I used to be a starving college student :-P  Service can be slow at times, but you can't really blame them since half of Sac State gets out of class at 11:45 on Tuesdays and Thursdays :-)

    They should have a McDonald's on campus rather than burger kings.  However, there bk stackers are bomb and cheap and I like there express lane, very convenient

    This place is ok if you want a cheap thing to eat on campus. It's typically standard of a burgerking. I rather eat here than at Plum Blossom lol, but if you can try to expand your culinary horizons and eat somewhere else. I think that they inflate the prices of the food due to the proximity to school ehh...
