Check Extras. Before paying, ask which drinks and fries cost extra: one customer was charged more for orange juice and curly fries without being told.
Avoid Rush. If timing matters, consider visiting outside busy periods; one customer waited over 30 minutes while later orders were prioritised.
Verify Pickup. For pickup, confirm the collection point first: a review says customers could not go inside the mall or receive orders in the parking area.
Watch Delivery. For delivery, monitor the order closely and keep the branch contact details handy; one review says tracking repeatedly turned off.
Try Curly Fries. If you like a spicy side, the spicy curly fries are specifically recommended and were described as fresh and hot.

Delivery reliability is a serious concern: reviews describe waits of up to two hours, including an order that was later cancelled.
One visitor reported a visibly dirty floor and reception area, plus a glove-handling incident that raised hygiene concerns.
A customer waited over 30 minutes, then received the wrong order and had to wait again.
One paid sandwich refund had still not arrived more than two months after the customer first raised the issue.
A large curly-fries order with cheese was reported to contain less fries than expected and almost no cheese.
These are customer-reported mentions, not a current price list. Prices may have changed.

The Bottom Line
Hardee’s in Jumeirah is a fast-food stop at Mercato for burgers, fried chicken and quick counter-service meals. Reviews are especially useful if you are deciding what to order: the Wraptor sandwich, Mushroom and Swiss burger and spicy curly fries all receive specific praise. Several customers also describe burgers arriving hot and fresh, while one says the portions are big for the price.
The in-branch experience is often better than the delivery experience. Recent dine-in visitors mention polite, attentive staff, good food timing and a decent atmosphere. The Mercato branch has also attracted repeat customers who return for its burgers and consistent service.
If you are ordering at the counter, check the final total carefully: a customer’s 16AED meal became more expensive when orange juice and curly fries were added without the extra charges being explained clearly. Delivery is the main caution. Reviews describe waits of more than an hour, a two-hour Wraptor order arriving moist, and an order that was eventually cancelled.
Pickup can also be awkward because one reviewer said they could not enter the mall or collect in the parking area. For a first visit, eating in and checking your order before leaving looks less risky than relying on delivery.
