I Love Me Some Fish Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 Love me some 5 Guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gizmo Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 5 Guys, no contest. Although I admit that I've never tried In-N-Out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Beinfest Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 Are we bound to have cheese on our Five Guys? That ain't signature. The beauty about Five Guys... they don't market a 'meal'. Just hamburgers and hot dogs. However you want em done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iowa Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 Is Rally's the same as Checker's? Their fries are great Of those listed, I am a fan of Steak n Shake's greasy ass awesome food Never heard of 5 guys and don't have White Castle, What-a-burger or Jack-in-the-box in my area. Do you guys have Culver's or is that a midwestern thing? Best burger in my area belongs to Boozie's! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schnellders Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 Out of these I've only had the Big Mac and the Whopper. I vote Whopper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mystikol87 Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 I don't know where's the 1 best, but I liked Jack's better than 5 guys. And Le Tub didn't blow my mind, but that was a bunch of years ago already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Web Jim Edmonds Posted April 12, 2012 Author Share Posted April 12, 2012 5 Guys is good and I recognize that but Id take a Steak&Shake steak burger 5 out of 7 times. Yes, Checkers and Rallys are the same thing and I think they have the second best fries of all the places up here. 5 Guys burgers are bomb and thats what this is about but their fries are quite a aways away from their burgers. They have you and ass load of em but they just arent good. LOL And for the guy who said he's only tried Big Macs and Whoppers man go out and get your burger game up! Get a Wendys Tripple Stack burger...those are even better than macs and whoppers lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarlinsMY Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 We don't have too many of those restaurants here in Maine (except for McDonald's, Burger King, and Wendy's, of course). A Five Guys opened in Portland about 11 months ago (and only a 5 minute walk from work too!), but I had previously had tried them while visiting my grandmother in Ohio a few years ago. They are great, and I enjoy how generous they are with the amount of fries you get. (I once saw them put in two additional scoops of fries into the bag, which already contained a full cup of fries.) The customization of toppings is also a huge plus, so I would vote for them with the caveat that I haven't tried most of the other choices. A Red Robin just opened last month in South Portland, and I got to go there before they opened as part of their test run. It was OK... I wouldn't be opposed to going again, but I wouldn't go out of my way to either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Beinfest Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 Okay instead of bitching at all of you: Big Mac -> f*** you this shouldn't even be on here Whopper/Double Whopper -> See above 5 Guys double cheese -> For God's sake it doesn't have to have cheese and it's not signature, just delicious and the clear winner. Hardees Thick Burger -> Never had it. Steak and Shake Steak Burgereak -> Whoever claimed they'd take a sh*tty steak n shake drunk-people-food sandwich over Five Guys... hah. White Castle Mini Burger -> Doesn't even qualify as drunk food, stoner food and absolutely disgusting when sober. In&Out West Coast Burger-> Only heard good things but Shake Shack in New York proved that it could be all talk. Jack-N-The-Box Grilled Sourdough -> Never had it. Wendys Classic Single -> You sick bastard, you don't even call the triple out? See Whopper. Sonic Bacon Double Cheese -> See Whopper. Fud Ruckers -> Tastes homemade for all the wrong reasons. I could make a burger like this at home. Red Robin -> Never had it. What-A-Burger -> See In&Out Rallys Double Cheese Burger (Checkers)-> See Wendy's but add 3 levels of respect (where maxiumum respect is still ~50).

mystikol87 Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 I like Hardees for what it is, but it's nowhere close to elite on the burger side. They do make damn good chicken fingers, though -- actually crispy!! -- and good onion rings, too. There's one just down the street from my apartment, and it's my guilty pleasure treat, although it's been several months now since I last had it.

FishFan88 Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 There's a place for everything and the Big Mac deserves some respect. Personally, I don't consider traditional fast food chains to be on par with the new age fast casual service of burger fi or five guys. I look at them more like dive bars.. Not pretty but a very specific role to fill. On another note the best burger I've ever had is a tossup between Mac's in Gainesville (NW 10th Ave and Main) an Mighty Fine in Austin, TX Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SongInTheAir Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 Anyone who didn't vote for In-N-Out has never had In-N-Out. Seriously, I almost expected it to not be as good as I'd heard just because the hype machine was so well oiled and running, but it might actually be better than people say it is. Also, it is cheaper than the cardboard from McDonald's and other large scale fast food "restaurants" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hotcorner Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 Whataburger is okay. It's better than the usual fast foods but not anything I'd go out of my way for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
