The McDonald's at 6830 Balboa Blvd in Van Nuys, CA has to be the most run-down and filthy McDonald's we have seen to date. We visited the restaurant in the afternoon. Our first stop was the play area for children. We entered through the glass door which looked like no one had cleaned it in months. There was food and greasy handprints all over the glass. The windows looked like they had not been cleaned in some time.
As soon as we entered the play yard, we looked for a clean table to sit down at so our three year old son could eat his Happy Meal. No such luck.
All of the tables that were available , were slimy with spilled soft drinks, ketchup, leftover food and other people's food wrappers, trays and utensils.
We went to the manager at the front counter and explained about the dirty tables. We got a half hearted response almost from under her breath. She said that she would send someone out to clean up the area. True to her word, a woman showed up looking very tired and probably wishing she were somewhere else. She swept a couple of things up, mopped for less than a minute, walked around looking like she had stared at the sun for too long and then left the area. She never even attempted to clean the table tops. She just left them a mess. There was also chewing gum stuck to the floor in several places.
