Mission Valley, San DiegoWorth trying
A packed-with-Bolts-fans Mission Valley McDonald's near the stadium that Roger, no fan of the chain generally, rated 3 stars after a late-night nugget and cheeseburger run came out warmer and fresher than usual, with fries that were unexpectedly crunchy instead of soggy.
The documented visit included 10 piece nuggets and fries. This record does not turn that order into a recommendation.

“Fries were also nice and crunchy, and not the usual soggy texture you would get from here.”
This is one of the most packed McDonald's locations in town, right by the stadium and full of Chargers fans before and after games. Not usually a fan of the food here, but stopped in near midnight for a chicken nugget craving with the dining area still open; a 10-piece nuggets and double cheeseburger order came out warmer and better than expected.
Roger rated this Mission Valley Tender Greens 4 stars, noting it's bigger but also much more crowded than the other Tender Greens locations he's been to.
The Mission Valley outpost of The Kebab Shop, a chain Roger has followed since its East Village original (still his favorite location); lamb doner, shawarma and kebab plates all deliver, though parking and lunch crowds are the tradeoff.
