If you want to save money, whenever you go to a fast food restaurant, always read the value menu or dollar menu. Way cheaper than the regular menu.

I used to eat at Wendys regularly, but that was when they had a salad buffet (that goes back a while!). To me their food seems to be generally better than BK or McD's. But still "fast food", and the wife and I have for the past few years been making an effort to eat more fresh unprocessed foods, and so the only "fast food" places we frequent lately are Moe's (for the salad) and Subway (for the chopped salad).

I would really like to see Wendys return to the salad buffet - I guess it wasn't profitable.

Yea, senior drink = tiny drink. I know, it can be refilled. No, we had exactly what I listed and "small." Half a salad there is up to $8 and my combo around $7. Their "junior" burger isn't enough to fill my right thumb but I generally order grilled CHICKEN.

Their salad bar was the best. They slowly removed stuff then got rid of it. Even their "looks like plastic" pudding was good.

Here is an update. The new Wendy's is still not open. I would call it a nothing burger. What are they waiting for?

I was in the 441 Wendys two weeks ago and asked when will Trialwinds open, and the woman said, ask that lady she'll be the manager. So I did, and she said Tuesday Oct 1. So it should of opened today, I'm glad I read this thread because I was just about to go over there and get some chili, I love their Chili. Maybe they'll open for dinner today.

I had the chili today as well, it is excellent as always. The place as usual is too small. I thought Burger King was too small, but they have them beat. I guess when the opening goes by, it will be better. I was taking my food home, but I looked around and saw no tables available, I got the last spot in the parking lot, and the drive-thru was around the building. Also once you get inside, there is no room for a waiting line. Two people can wait in line, after that, you run into a divider. Next up, Taco Bell!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
