They are pretty good. The lines tend to go fairly quickly around here.

Re: In-N-Out Burger

We might stop in once a month.... good burgers, but not that good!

There is no food anywhere that's good enough to make me wait in a line like that, even if it's free.

Re: In-N-Out Burger

They must have been giving out free burgers as part of their grand opening. There was a cop (.43) waiting in line too. Was he on the clock? Why not just hit the blues?

Re: In-N-Out Burger

We don't have them down here, but I finally got to eat at one a few years ago. They aren't bad, but they sure as heck aren't worth waiting in a long line for.

They recently opened the first Carl's Jr in our area. They had a line wrapped around the block for almost two months. I suppose they are great burgers too, but still haven't eaten there.

Re: In-N-Out Burger

In-N-Out is probably IMO the best drive through burger you are gonna find.

The others that all say that they are better, screw it up with weird toppings or so many other choices to screw up a burger.

In-N-Out has always been a CA favorite, at least for me it's a treat after a long day.

Re: In-N-Out Burger

I can't remember the first time I ate at Mc Donalds, Carls Jr, Burger King, etc.

But I can remember the first time I ate at In N Out over 30 years ago.

Yes, it is THAT good.

Re: In-N-Out Burger

Sounds like five guys in our area. Fresh cut Idaho fries, fresh high quality meat cooked to order with about 20 choices of toppings that are all good!!!

Isn't Ace-X going to one of these openings?

Is that Five Guys Burgers and Fries?

There is one of those here in Utah, but I have not ever been there. My kid says it's pretty dang good, though. As for In & Out-I gotta say I'm underwhelmed. I remember them from when I was a kid in SoCal and they have recently (last 5 years or so) moved into Utah. The were as I remembered, just not my favorite.

But Salt Lake just came in 2nd in the Nation-behind Houston-for best burgers overall. I'll see if I can find the link. It was on the news a couple days ago

Here's that link:

Re: In-N-Out Burger

never been to one but it's gotta be better than Sonic. confusing menu board and all these promotions get on my nerve.
locally we have Burger Time. "I'll take a #2 with Pepsi" is the way it should be. occasionally they have a corn dog special but that's it.

Re: In-N-Out Burger

Never had In-N-Out Burgers where I grew up... went to the Springnationals out in Pomona last year and we made a point of going.

I have been eatin hamburgers for 50 years, gotta tell ya I wasn't impressed at all. McDonalds has better fries, and Burger King hamburgers are just as good.... IMO of course.

If I was in my truck I would likely run out of gas before I got my burgers

Re: In-N-Out Burger

Five guys closed down here.. folks did not want to pay for a pricey burger.

I have heard nothing but good about in and out over the years.. but I have to say, that pic doesn't look any different than a sonic burger.

Re: In-N-Out Burger

There is a 5 guys joint here in my town now.

Tried it a few times in different style orders, and I gotta say... It's just a sloppy burger with a pile of greasy fries in a bag. If I wanted that, I'd just go to "The Hat" and get a decent burger with the same amount of the same kind of pile of fries. (Mind you, the only reason one would go to "The Hat" is for the pastrami).

I crack up at these so called "better than In-N-Out" joints like 5 guys, and they are just a rip off of how In-N-Out does food prep. Yet, the burger has no taste nor does the fries.

Similar to Sonic? You gotta be kidding me? Sonic burgers are like eating a soggy piece of heavy corrugated cardboard between some nasty old fixins...

I guess you have to be a Southern Californian to truly appreciate an In-N-Out burger, since every region has it's favorite burger and claim it's the best.

Just a SoCal icon of fast food that every burger flippin shop tries to emulate to capitalize off of IMO. Though I have to say... It's just a fast food burger, and if you're out of the area hopes have been pumped up about it. Then you are bound to be negative about it.

Just have one, and if you like it. Then have a coke and smile, if not then enjoy your local favorite.

x100 on everything.

In SoCal that is it, oh and besides The Hat, the pastrami at Canters too.

Here in the northwest, Burgerville it the shiz.....

I did not say it WAS similar to Sonic. I have never been to one, so I would not know. I said the pic posted looks like a Sonic burger. I don't like fast food burgers at all, so I will agree on the cardboard deal, but its like salty cardboard IMHO

I think it was just me, after reading 68C15 mention of Sonic and then your mention. Plus with my experience with Sonic, I think I just a little over worked.
