I ordered the Hardee’s Famous Star Single Burger today. It cost under $5.00 and was quite large and tasty. They offer a Super Star double burger too. I can only imagine how big that is. I liked the rustic decor of the dining room. It make it feel very welcoming and cozy.

The Sylva NC location is far superior to the ones in my area. Big fluffy biscuit! Not so impressed with triad locations.

This Hardee's is in a college town with a busy environment but still provides great customer service. Inside was very clean, restrooms were clean. Food was fresh and hot!! The employee was friendly and patient even though we had a very difficult order. They took the time to repeat it back until everything was perfect.

Never too crowded. The food is good. The prices are great. Every employee I've met so far is friendly. Service can be slow sometimes but that's only on days when they are understaffed. And it's always clean inside.

This location is always super busy for breakfast, but I got them on a good day. I ordered a country-fried steak biscuit and some hash rounds (I forgot what size). It was under $10 for this meal, which I was pretty satisfied with. The hash rounds were pretty good. They survived a car ride back to the office and were still nice and crunch. The country-fried steak biscuit was pretty good, too. The biscuit was nice. The country-fried steak was delicious. I am not sure if gravy is supposed to be on it or not, but it was pretty good plain. I definitely recommend their breakfast! It was quick to order and to get the food.

This is a really nice Hardee's. The decor was perfect for this beautiful little mountain town. There's places to plug in your laptop. The staff is super friendly. Plus they cook their biscuits to perfection. They're golden brown. I wish I had a picture of the biscuit. But I inhaled it before I had a chance to take one. Haha!
