Burger King Now Open in Lake Ridge
After a few months of delays, the Burger King near Tackett's mill has finally reopened.
After being closed for six years, the Burger King near Tackett's Mill is now open and operating, as of the afternoon of Aug. 25.
"We finally did it. We made it," owner and operator Ron Devine said. "I feel like I finally did something."
The Burger King was originally scheduled to reopen by May, but delays in construction and the permitting process pushed the opening date to June, then July, and finally August.
Devine said that Mike May's office and Corey Stewart's office deserved credit for their assistance in getting the business through the permitting process.
"I thank all the construction people and engineers and all the help that we had to get this together," Devine said.
Devine hopes to have a grand opening in mid or late September.
"I'd like to operate for about a month before we actually do it," he said.
The Burger King's crew is new and they're still being trained.
"We're hoping to have the fanciest drive-thru in the area," he said.

I'm glad Burger King is back, but....I have been there twice so far at lunch and if the crew doesn't get organized and on track they will lose all their business. Today, some people waited for 20 minutes to get their food. People were not getting food in the order they came in, and I personally saw 4 orders handed out that were incorrect. One person requested his money back after 20 minutes of waiting. I like Burger King, please, owner(s) get this fixed! Is there no one with any experience on the daytime crews, even the manager look lost!

I realize that, but someone should be there that knows what to do, and to train them. They were absolutely lost!

Thanks for the info ... I will make sure to never go to that Burger King. It sounds like the owner is clueless.
