Five Guys is my 2nd least favorite burger joint of all time (right behind Burger King). There food is blad and tasteless. Soooo disgusting imo.
Five Guys is also hella expensive for what you get. Two burgers and fries from a fast food place should not be $20.
You are all wrong (even Hodapp ). Best burgers in the world, without a doubt, can be had at Mr. Bartleys in Harvard Square, Cambridge MA.
I believe it only has a couple locations in my city and Austin, great burgers but they use to be allot better. Not sure mt vote is valid though since i haven't tried anything mentioned in this thread.
Having lived in Seattle, I gotta agree with Dr Porky Outta Hell, Dicks are pretty good, but their fries are the bomb!
Smashburger. Seriously. Best patty you'll ever taste (that isn't bison, apparently), rosemary fries, and an awesome grasshopper shake to top it off. Either that or Culver's. The butterburger is awesome, but frankly, go for the frozen custard.
*snickers* Anyways, I just thought of another one, Fuddruckers. I went there once and it was pretty good.
Five Guys is pretty good but nothing beats In-N-Out.. I also like my home-grilled burgers (Walmart patties) with thick yellow cheese, onions, lettuce, lots of tomatoes and hash browns And on thin buns.
My Favorite Burger Joints in no exact order: IN-N-OUT Burger Carl's JR Johnny Rockets Dave & Buster's (Not sure if this counts).
The Squeeze Inn This has been a local favorite for many years, but that damned Guy Fieri jerk went and did a show about it and totally blew up the spot. Since then they opened two more locations and there is a brand new one going in just a few blocks from my house (yay!) Anyway, this place is legendary. Just don't let your arteries watch this video:
By odd coincidence, I have been there. Big ass burger, but crazy expensive, and it seems kind of like an upscale burger joint (oxymoron?) 5 Guys though...that's quality
The Roadkill Cafe. I can't decide though, between Awesome Possum and Rack of Racoon. Decisions, decisions.
Sorry backtothis but their building a In-N-Out near me in Arlington!!!! It will probably be finished by the end of the summer though So me drunkhobo and Ryan from Mission Europa can go party when it opens...
They're building an IN N OUT in Texas. Are they covering it on the news? Newspapers? This is huge news for Texas. You guys finally get to taste the BEST BURGER EVER! Tip: When oredering, ask for the burger to be Animal Style (It makes them put their secret sauce on it).
