Default PDQ at Colony

6-5-2016....just got back from having the BEST salad AGAIN from PDQ.

We are very fortunate to have an eatery like PDQ in the Villages and makes me realize again why we love it here. Perfect place to finish a day after a not so perfect day of golf!

Thank you PDQ for always having such a friendly staff and consistently good food.
Yes, life is good and we are lucky to be here!

BTW.....the zucchini sticks are great.

PDQ is a great addition to casual fast food here in The Villages. Another vote from me,

Just ate at PDQ tonight for the first time. Was impressed with the quality & freshness of my buffalo tender sandwich and fries. We will definitely be going back but I will say I did not care for the milk shake.

I love PDQ. Their chicken strips and crispy chicken salad, both with honey mustard, are the best I've found in TV.

Way to go PDQ.

We will have to give it another try. We went a couple of weeks after opening, and weren't impressed. I can't actually recall the chicken. I just remember being very turned off by the blueberry slaw. Just didn't seem like a good combination at all. I do notice they are never very busy, even when McDonalds next door is packed.

We enjoyed PDQ when we were renting in The Villages for the month of May. We thought it was a good addition to the "fast" food options available. We will definitely patronize PDQ when we move to The Villages in July.

Fresh, excellent food, extremely courteous staff, fast service, fair pricing. If you want to compete, this is how it's done.

This is neat to see. I remember all the posts that derided the building of this place. I, too, have enjoyed it the few times I have eaten there.

Everything is good - except the fries; they're always kind of greasy and soggy, not crisp.

I'm also not a fan of the slaw but the chicken and zuchinni fries are my favorite both nuggets and strips. I think they you don't see a line because the staff is so efficient they get you through the line quickly.

It's great for fast food to go and it is FAST. We split the Cali Club Sandwich with avocado and the Caesar Salad...the dressing is unusual and "kicked up a notch." Note: If you don't like chicken, you won't enjoy PDQ - that's all there is.
